$6.66

i'm selling some of my old crap on ebay, and would you believe some kid somewhere wants my old, dirty marilyn manson patches?



bidding is currently up to $6.66. i kind of want the auction to end at that price, because it's hilarious. and considering all the other bids were going up in .25 increments, you KNOW some goth kid did that on purpose.

lol

with all the rule changes and other stuff associated with the "new nhl", you don't really get the "old-time hockey" brawls that used to exist. so melees like the one between the blackhawks and the canucks are now uncommon. :( but i suppose that makes them all the more entertaining when they DO happen.

(watch in high quality, duh!)



i love eager/bieksa trying to undress each other. and burrows pulling the hair? lol what? and then the ref slew footing shane o'brien and taking him down? hilarious!
and these teams might be meeting each other in the first round of the playoffs! if that does happen, it should make for a super entertaining series.

ok, and one more. here's a video of "goalies gone wild." i'm pretty sure i've written about this before, but it is my opinion that goalies throwing tantrums and getting into fights is one of the funniest things ever. it's the gear. it somehow makes their rage hilarious. the bigger the tantrum, the funnier the outburst.



my favorite part of this is neil little literally FLYING into the dog pile (@ roughly 2:20). oh man, and cujo losing his shit and going after the ref. lol. i love it!

ok, back to work now. bye.

edit: ok, i've gotta admit that torn up shirt business is kind of hot.

we're from america we're from america we're from america...

i just finished listening to the free download marilyn manson's giving out. i was kind of scared to listen to it because the last two manson albums have been so, so bad. but i believe in twiggy's songwriting ability, so anyhow...

i actually think it's pretty good! some of the lyrics are kind of annoying and would have felt really rebellious and dangerous when i was 15 but are now just... i dunno. annoying. but manson himself has always bugged me. but yeah, musically it's really different than what was going on on "eat me, drink me" and that other one with the title i can't remember right now. it kind of reminds me of something that could have been on "mechanical animals," but a little fuzzier. and when the bass and heavy drums kick in at 1:47, it's pretty badass. and that little synth line that comes in at about 3:28 totally sounds like it belongs on a goon moon record.

i don't know how much more i can say about one single, so i'll stop. now i'm kind of excited to hear the new album. maybe it'll be good!

~~~

on another note, i decided to give coldplay's "viva la vida" a listen. why? i don't know. because the single by the same name was EVERYWHERE, and despite my best efforts to hate it, i couldn't. it's a pretty song. THERE! i said it! so i thought that maybe the rest of the album would be good? so anyhow, i put it on and right away i'm like, "whoa, when did i put on a u2 album?" there are four songs i can remember right now that sound JUST LIKE u2!!! so i went online to go see if anyone else had come to that conclusion, and i found out coldplay's album was produced by brian eno (who also has produced many u2 records) and then it all made sense. but anyhow, i didn't really like the rest of the coldplay album. there were maybe 2 songs with potential. the rest just made me want to go turn on u2 instead, because they did it first and they did it better.

girly time

i just bought five bras for the grand total of $5.38. and they are nice ones. they're the same ones i'm used to paying $40 for. i had a coupon and a "gift check" and they were having a sale and all of a sudden i'm paying ONE dollar for something that normally costs 40. OMG!

ok, and to butch this up a little bit:

check out kopi's "sick" shootout move

ha

zzzZZzzZZZZzzzz

i haven't had the opportunity to sleep in and take a day off since sunday before last. 10 days ago!!!!!! i also haven't been able to sit down and watch an entire kings game since the game against the bruins on the 19th. SO tomorrow i'm going to sleep in and then watch the game. it is going to be fabulous. anybody who messes with my plan will be cut.

i've been selling stuff like crazy on ebay. it's fun. except i'm really bad at estimating how much to charge for shipping. i know i can have ebay calculate, but in order for that to work, i'm going to have to start planning how i'm going to package stuff in advance. and know how much it weighs.

i thought this was pretty funny:

(the first goal definitely shouldn't have counted, because in a shootout it's supposed to be continuous movement forward, and the goalie clearly got a poke check in. i can't actually tell if the last goal was in or not, but the goalie doesn't seem to think so. )

omg stanley ilu bb

this never ever ever ever ever gets old.

neither does this:




and this one is classic:

mr. peanut

i need something classy. like the opening of a car dealership.

that's it. or mr. peanut.

Yes!

Mr. Peanut is not classy...

-he is!-

...he is a regular peanut. he just happens to have a cane, a monocle and a top hat.

that's what makes him classy.

overpriced or not

i'm still really glad to have pit tickets for the irvine show.

now mountain view on the other hand... how the hell did that sell out so quickly?!? for the first time in a very long time, it looks like i'm going to have to deal with general onsale for a trent show. =/

trent, i love you but...

ok, vegas presale just went up. got some pit tickets. total came to 283. not in any universe am i going to pay that. closed the window without tickets. i never thought i'd be able to do that... but these tickets are THAT outrageously expensive.

these prices are BULLSHIT. >:O

what completely sucks is that the chicago show, the one show that magically does not include jane's addiction, is only 45. WHAT?!

jane's addiction are responsible for this. before trent decided it would be a brilliant idea to bring then back from the dead, i didn't really care about jane's addiction. yeah, dave navarro is kind of a joke and ever since i saw perry farrell on stage with his wife being ridiculous, i see him pretty much as a joke too. but like, they never hurt me in any way so i didn't care. but now i'm just enraged. i didn't really care a whole lot about bauhaus, and they didn't make ticket prices ridiculous, so it was all good. arghweoriwneroxiwenrw.

i'm so pissed off that this is the last tour and it's going down like this.

on another note, i've been checking on ticket availability on the pre-sale page, hours after tickets have gone on sale, and so far there are still many tickets available. i do this every tour, and every time previous to this, the pre-sales sell out fairly soon. i think these prices are going to hold many, many people back. not just me.

...bullshit!

if only...

i have $11,052,650 neopian dollars. and i have an "ultimate riches!" bank account. what if that were my actual bank account balance?

work it, girl.

sensory overload

i'm going out of my mind at work today. the phone won't shut up, the radio is way too loud, everybody's yelling and god knows WHAT they're doing back there with the steel.
AH! everybody just be quiet for a minute, yeah?

i think the chp is out to get me. lately i'll be driving and they get right behind me and stalk me. ever since i got my ticket last august, i've been driving like a saint. the fastest i'll ever go on the highway is 70, and more often than not i'm only going 67 or 68. needless to say, i'm one of the slowest drivers out there. they're just out to get me! i was driving to work in la jolla, and i was doing exactly, precisely 65 (cruise control) and this chp officer comes out of nowhere and drives like, RIGHT behind me. people were zooming by on either side and i just didn't know what he wanted. he followed me for quite a while at a very uncomfortable distance and finally i just left the highway because i didn't want him to invent a reason to give me a ticket. and today on my way to work, this officer kept driving behind me then to the side of me just staying right around me...while, once again, people were zooming by. i'm not exaggerating when i say this has happened 6 times lately. i used to be a complete speed demon, and the chp always left me alone. there were many times they just drove right by me. now that i'm actually driving at the speed limit they decide to harass me? what the hell? it's very strange. i have a theory that i need to remove my obama sticker from my car. maybe that will make a difference?

i really want a kindle from amazon. billie jean is one of the best songs ever. robin finck's twitter is utterly useless. i need my tax return $$$. can't believe it's march and the kings are still in the playoff hunt.

big, HUGE, monster balls!

matt greene blocked a shot with his FACE! and instead of laying down and crying like most of us would, homeboy gets up and keeps playing. (i caught a puck that was hit out of play and it bounced right out of my hand because i couldn't flex it because it hurt SO FUCKING BAD!!! and that was a puck that was significantly slowed down by hitting the netting... i can't imagine my FACE being the first thing that a puck hits after being shot. [some of those guys shoot the puck over 100 mph and that shit is frozen solid] BALLS i'm telling you!!!)







ouch!!!

oh my god

you know that song "midnight train to georgia" by gladys knight? i have been singing it for the past three days. i cannot stop. and every time i think it's done, it'll start again. help me!!!

trenznor is an evil man

"Look for an announcement tomorrow around this time"

wtf dude? just fucking tell us or don't. the end. i'm tired of your crap. >:(

FUCK YES

Fri-May-15 Phoenix, AZ [Cricket Wireless Pavilion]
Sat-May-16 Chula Vista, CA [Cricket Wireless Amphitheater]
Mon-May-18 Las Vegas, NV [The Pearl]
Wed-May-20 Irvine, CA [Verizon Wireless Amphitheater – Irvine Meadows]
Fri-May-22 Mountain View, CA [Shoreline Amphitheatre]

that's 5 that are right here! ALRIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(nine inch nails tour dates, that is)

~~~

edit: ok, i've had time to think about it now. these dates are both good and bad. good, because they're spread out (save for the phoenix-cv dates) so i don't have to drive overnight and be really tired the next day. i'll actually get to relax in the city i'm in. they're also bad because they're so spread out and only one is on a weekend day. (oh god, katie had better be able to make at least a couple of these). and i plan on having a real job by then, so i have no idea what i'm going to tell my employer. hmm...

just wondering

let me ask you something. is it fair that her darkness is consuming us all?
at what point does your obligation to family end and the obligation to yourself begin?
on a scale of 1 to 10, how awful am i for even thinking this?

I just went to the bathroom, and there was this little fly that wouldn't leave me alone. So when it landed on the mirror, I squished it with a piece of toilet paper. Usually I just throw the paper out without thinking about it, but I decided to look at the bug. And there were two red spots surrounding its body. The bug bleeds red. I squished it, killed it and made it bleed. Poor little guy was just living and I killed him because he was annoying. I feel really bad right now. :(
