Facebook Pages
Call me defeatist, but I’m sorry - a Facebook page is never going to cause an actual movement. I just saw one for “Lower the drinking age to 18!”. Okay, this debate has been going on and on for years, do you seriously think that by getting people “become a fan” of this, the courts are suddenly going to decide to change it? No.
I digress…

Drive-Thru Problem
The most annoying (albeit friendly) thing that people working at drive-thrus can do is say “Hi, how are you?”. Is that code for “can I take your order?” or does it mean “hi, let me stall while I finish up a few things first”. It’s just so awkward.
Then there’s that awkward pause where I respond “Good, thanks.” … If you want to be...

It's Called Proofreading
I was in the car before driving around with the radio on. A commercial for some club in the hamptons came on and they were talking about a new Monday club night they have. The announcer in the (pre-recorded and repeating) commercial said “Come check us out for TGMF - that’s TGMF, Thank God it’s Finally Monday.
Let’s take a closer look at that:
Thank God it’s Finally...

i always pretend that i'm on wikipedia...
story of my life. it makes me feel like I’m doing something wrong, I just don’t want to explain the whole blog concept to them. i feel like it’ll prompt them to ask to read mine.
kentrock:
whenever one of my parents comes to see “what you doing on the computer” because i can’t bring myself to explain tumblr to them.
they probably think I read wiki for fun or something
New Project
Working on a brand new project. Really, really excited about this one. More info soon.
Palm Pre
Check out the review that BGR did on it before you commit, it looks like it’s pretty good though. A lot of the cues are taken from the iPhone but I guess that’s do be expected since they’re trying to enter the same part of the market. I gotta see this thing when you get it.

Palm Pre
This is probably the one smartphone that I’ve seen since the release of the iPhone that I’d consider getting if the iPhone wasn’t around. It seems like the OS is really fun to use and it has a lot of the features that I’d want in a phone.
Only problem: If the iPhone didn’t exist, I’m sure the Pre wouldn’t be what it is today, if it existed at all.

I hate it when
people have one headlight out so they proceed to drive with their brights on so it works. It’s rude and annoying. Go get it fixed idiots.
Downloading 3322 Copyrighted Movies is Okay in... →
Good to know :P
airport:
Today, the Criminal Court of Pamplona ruled that a man didn’t break any laws by downloading thousands of movies and an undetermined number of songs. The defendant was acquitted of copyright infringement charges because there was no evidence that he profited from downloading the movies and music, or sharing them with others.
The judge acknowledged that the man indeed...
Is it just me, or is tumblr having some kind of...
I keep getting a blank white screen or a jumbled bunch of text and images from my dashboard. Like the style sheet is missing or something.
Taco Bell
I just went to taco bell to get some dinner. When I looked in the bag they put a moist towelette on top of the napkins with a small mint. Nice touch Taco Bell of Eastern Long Island.

Yeah, but what if?
I’m so tired of always thinking about everything. Anytime I want to do something, I figure out all the angles and have my story so solid that no one can touch it. All this drama with this loan has become such a nightmare.
I was approved, but my co-signer wasn’t for some reason and now the ONLY single step that’s in the way of it being approved is having someone else literally...
Bing? Seriously?
Microsoft decides to call their Live Search service “Bing”. Okay, someone’s losing it.
Summer session.
This is a two-fold reblog. One because, I’m glad to hear you’re blogging more because I want to know more about this girl they call Megan Schreiber and two, because it will increase your tumblarity. Cheers!

Steve Jobs Spotted on Apple Campus, Seems Fine →
I didn’t know Steve drove a Mercedes AMG, I guess it makes sense. I just expected him to drive a BMW or a hybrid.
Yeah, I'm really sure
They also have a lot of university grants that you can pick up pretty easily. They have an “if you don’t ask, we won’t tell you about it” policy, do just do I like did and call every day! Are you ready to BLEED ORANGE! You better be!

Video Chatting
I have a problem talking to people when they’re video chatting with someone because I feel like what I’m saying will come up in conversation. That could be awkward.
I think it's funny
Yep, I know where ya coming from with that one. I don’t know how people find my blog, but I wish they’d come back more often haha.
michnoff:
That I only have 18 actual followers on Tumblr, but when I look at my analytics through Google, I see that I get around 300 unique viewers per week. So since there’s a 60% chance that you’re reading this without being subscribed to me, get your...
reblog with how you came up with your tumblr URL
it’s my name. without a space.
airport:
I like airports.
Showcase
Showcase is one word. If for some reason you have an item called a “Show” and have a box that holds it (i.e case), that is the only acceptable time that I’ll allow someone to type show case. Showcase. Showcase. Showcase.
This has been a public service announcement by johnburke.

New Version Available?
So the following post is slightly immoral. Nevertheless:
I absolutely hate it when I am using an application and installing an update causes it to no longer work. I do not endorse or support the stealing of music, applications or other files but sometimes I want to see if something is going to be worth $49.99 or whatnot before I throw the cash in.
Don’t judge me.

Frustrating Day
I hate to be a debbie-tumblr-downer, if you will, but today has not been the finest days of my life. I woke up and went to a meeting about a decision I’m reluctant to talk about until the drama and issues surrounding it are resolved. Nonetheless, I’ll say it costs money. I applied for a loan with a very well known loan lender and am waiting to hear back about it. For some reason, my...
