shutitdown: livin' for the anecdote

<< shutitdown: taking one for the anecdote

weeks old friday five

I just thought about the fact that I hadn't done my Friday Five in like 158609438 years. They didn't update it for a few weeks and I moved and basically gave up. Very troubling.

So this one is from two weeks ago.

1. Where were you born? New York City, baby.

2. If you still live there, where would you rather move to? I actually was raised in California, and then returned to my homeland as a (older) teen. New York was cool and all, because no one raised an eye at my horrid and overwhelming bitterness. I just moved back to California, and although I love it here, I definately feel like I'm a little too jaded for the crunchy scene here. I guess that didn't answer the question though, did it?

3. Where in the world do you feel the safest? Sometimes at my parents' house. Only if my dad isn't in a bad mood. Most of the time, I feel safest in my bed. Sleeping, preferably.

4. Do you feel you are well-traveled? This is something that has just come up for me, but I am starting to feel like a moron for not traveling more. In my home town, no one ever leaves. Or at least, they never leave the Bay Area. So I thought I was a big shot for going to New York. Like, this is why americans are such assholes. We think the world revolves around us, and that we are this giant self-sustaining entity. Basically, I just stay stateside and get fat, like every other american. This is quite embarrassing.

5. Where is the most interesting place you've been? Mexico. Yes, I know I should say Europe, but I am fascinated with Mexican art, and swarthy Mexican men. Ninguna Gracias yo tengo las enfermedades.

If I have the strength, I may do one more Friday Five before the end of this week.

God yer an idiot

I love it when I get so many comments--even when they aren't in English!

El mono está en el árbol
La scimmia č nell'albero
Le singe est dans l'arbre

Es ist zutreffend. Es ist zutreffend.

Yes, giant saturday is very good.

Hasta luego, mis cabrones...

english is not your first language, is it pete?

sabado gigante es muy bueno.

What's a crunchy scene? The only link I can come up with is something to do with farming and Corn Flakes, but then I'm from Britain...

...Brit's are getting fatter too, particularly school kids it seams...

...More impressed with you language skills, I've often thought about learning some 'foreign', a little French to romance a girl, and then I think stuff it! Just speak English, loud and slow and then even Texan's can understand you!!!

I've learned so much about you. thanks.
