Still writing my papers.

So I write/edit one all day, cant stand the sight of it any more, switch to the other paper. Cant stand the sight of it any more. Switch back. Get pissed off at EndNote. Check email. Stare at one of the papers for a while.

And then Im like ‘OMG BLAAAAG! BLAAAAAAG! Ugggggh blaaaaaaaaaaaaag means writing….uuuuuuuuuuugh………’

I promise super cool and snarky and sad post on Koalas tomorrow, but if you have cool/funny/sad/interesting linkies I would appreciate them in the comments, so I have something to help me procrastinate as Im writing tonight (I really want to get this big chunk of Paper #1 done for Bossman tomorrow, so Im just gonna DO EEET tonight).

EXAMPLE:
(YouTubes being an ass)

I love this fucking video. I want Cuttlefish to rework the lyrics for scientists for three reasons.

1– Richard Dawkins–>Richard Head–>Dickhead. Like a Deadhead. I want a T-shirt with Dawkins face on it with the phrase “BEING A DICKHEADS COOL!”
2– The ‘Dont be a dick’ thing thats been going around. I dunno. I havent followed it. I read Whhhil Whhhhheatons blag, I know what ‘dont be a dick’ is and why Phil said it. I just dont care. I am what I am. I dunno whether thats a dick or not. If you like it, YAY! If you dont, I really dont give a rats ass.
3– Fuck the BeeGees. ABBA really are Dickheads, in this context.

    This sort of goes along with your “dick” theme:

    LULZ, although completely unrelated!

    I’m guessing Richard’s reaction to your idea would be much like his reaction to that Dick to the Dawk thing a while back… heehee.

    Well, how about a trailer for a Finnish movie about the secret behind the ho-ho-ho?

    Hmm… For scientists? Or atheists? Or Skeptics? Or some combination? Or something else?

    I may need a Venn Diagram first…

    I dunno, Bourdain has been making fun of everybody as usual. He has toned down the snark during actual filming and dumps it on the “No Reservations” blog.

    You probably already read 27b/6 since you read Allie Brosh’s blog but this just killed me…

    OMG… Just watched this 3 times in a row and I’m still loling like an idiot. Is it because I spend a little too much time with people like this..? (For the record, the Macbeth, one of the venues that pops up on the the band flyer, actually has some pretty good bands on as long as you can stomach cheap, nasty beer.)

    Continuing the theme, you got me thinking about an infamous (but mercifully fictional) “self-facilitating media node” who’d feel right at home with the dickheads.

    Probably late to the game with this but just in case…

    It’s too late, far too late, but you can never go wrong with Jon Lajoie. Personally, I like “Hands” the best. “Racist gardening” – HA!
