the wire




i hear white people love the wire.
i hear my exboyfriend made me watch it and then was a baby when i got obsessed.



"I got the shotgun, you got the briefcase. It's all in the game though, right?"
"Money ain't got no owners, only spenders."



i hear michael k williams should get more work than he does.
edit: oh shit, he's on HBO again. nm.

Here's an interview with David Simon, because this isn't so much a review as it is a rave.

work

  werk continues to suck, as it always has, and perhaps always will.  service industry werk especially.  jerk (mostly) man bosses, low wages, shitty repetitious tasks.  i'm reading Margaret Atwood's Alias Grace at the moment (which rules), and apparently, being a paid servant in 1850 in Canada sucked too; probably even more than it sucks now.

  i feel bad for all the young, bright eyed and bushy tailed service industry newbs who seem to feel lucky and fortunate, even grateful for this shit werk.  they're often not equipped to challenge derogatory bullshit behavior from their bosses and clients, and they often don't reciprocate bullshit behavior back on the boss (talking back, stealing shit, working slow).  be selective with your abilities and reserve that work-ethic for someone who deserves your hard work.

  and hey, i know we got it good in canada and '1st world' places, but shit could be better.  i just want workers to stand up for themselves and their dignity and challenge the bullshit in the work place.

guru energy drink

holy shit? is this the first post?


facts about guru.

-someone pointed out that guru tastes like melted and carbonated gummi bears.
it's true.

-i just pulled one out of my fridge, and the can is squishy.
very disconcerting.

-they're veegz.

-the diet one tastes gross.
sucralose is fucking gross.
diet anything is sickittating.

-gurus are the only energy drink that i drink.

-because i read bad celebrity gossip blogs, drinking energy drinks makes me feel like a starlet with a hangover. ah, the semiotics of capitalism.

-sometimes i drink them instead of eating food.

-they don't make me crash like coffee does.
remind me of the signs of ginseng overdose in a few months.

-i have never seen any of these other cockamamie flavours.
'juicy'? 'full on'? come on, now.


guru, i loves you.
