I finally arrived at my friend's place, and seeing her again made me happy.

The fact that Apple named their new product, The Ipad.

Yes, there's a treasure trove of humor to be mined from that fact, like the MAD TV comedy sketch I linked to in THIS POST!

I knew that was coming. Unfortunately, all of my outlets are occupied.

I don't want to know.

I finished my film "process" which I have to show to a college professor to get into the grant-in-aide program

Nice. I still can remember you once have asked in the 'have-you-ever' thread if have we ever wanted to make a film or something like that. So this have something to do with your profession? buen trabaho, bro (I mean nice work)

I have fucking read all your fucking comments on my fucking intro!

That made my fucking day!

Yeah, I want to be a filmmaker when I get out of college. Merci beaucoup, mon ami.

I was in the supermarket last night and there was an elder goth lady there with the full black outfit, dyed hair and Doc Martins. She had her son with her and he was about 10. He was misbehaving and fucking off like all kids do. She suddenly turned on him and said, "Don't be a Cullen."

I fucking loved it. Twilight has become so despised that Cullen has become a term of insult spanning 2 generations of goths.

Either that, or you misheard a woman telling her child not to be sullen. ;)

He was being far from sullen. He was a hyperactive little shit.

It made my day to know that MiceElf cares what I think!

New funny from TFLN:

(248): you lied. pity sex is amazing.

(479): So... 5th graders can't whisper for shit, but apparently I have an awesome rack.
(307): Haha. Niice.
(479): Yeah, I didn't know whether to be shocked or flattered.
(307): both.

(281): my little brother just told me that I should start chasing my vodka with slim fast. genious.

(412): I'm glad my gym is open 24 hours..I stopped in on my way home to puke from the bar

(309): i can tell by the sound of your bed that he isnt that good at sex.

(703): i just heard someone have an orgasm and then throw up through the vent in my room.

Bwah-hah-hah-hah-hah-hah!

So today's my cleaning day, and I like to listen to music while I clean. I started the day off with a fair dose of Bikini Kill, then ended up finding a whole bunch of 80's Riot Grrl bands I'd never heard before. I think I just fell in love with Be Your Own Pet, they're absolutely fantastic. I've listened to a few of their songs before now just never anything in-depth.

Needless to say cleaning just got way more enjoyable. :)

I <3 Riot Grrl

And that just made my day^

So... this weekend I discovered that I can do pretty damn tasty fajitas. It was my first attempt, and I threw away the spice mix that came with the wraps in favour of making my own marinade for the chicken.

Tips for improved marinade/ home-made spice mix would be welcome- mine's just lime juice with chilli powder, a little salt, and black pepper. I like mine, and my housemate and my boyfriend like it enough that they've both asked me to make it again, but I want to experiment further.

This means the list of tasty things I can make without looking at a recipe now includes apple pie, apple crumble, sausage rolls, chicken fajitas, dark chocolate truffles and spaghetti bolognese. Recipe still required for baked New York style cheesecake. It's a very limited list, but I've only started cooking for myself in the last six months or so. Will be trying curry next- easy recipes for mild curries will be welcomed. (Korma, Malaya, Kashmiri, etc)

That sounds pretty good, actually. Others can make ingredient suggestions. I just want to make one observation. Sometimes my SO will cook something ... create a new recipe, and I will tell her I really like it, that it's perfect, and I'd like it if she made it that way again. That seems to be when she most thinks she needs to experiment with the formula further, changing it from what I like. And since she's the cook, she has that prerogative. But it's usually not as good after the additional experimenting.

There's something perverse about that.

INdeed it is! ^



What's made my day is that I got my nails did.

My mom made me a monggo with condensed milk, my favorite. I'm gonna save some for midnight snack.

(I don't know what is monggo in English BTW. But its some kind of legumes. A greenish bean.)

New goodness from TFLN:

(717): Using Dr. Seuss quotes to ask me how badly I want your penis is not appropriate.

(480): he just invited me over for the 3 p's...pepsi pizza and porn...I'm gonna marry him

(209): I just remembered before I gave him head I couldn't find a hair tie and he offered to hold my hair up. Maybe we were wrong.. Maybe he does have a heart.

(804): my neighbors are having lesbo sex right now.
(1-804): I'm on my way.

(860): Walk of shame... his parents made me go to church with them first. in my club top sweat pants and slippers. i just slapped god in the face

Rhetorical question: "Why, oh why do the text messages of people behaving badly amuse me so?!?"

Listening to Floodland, made my day. Never gave that album a proper spin, love it!

Well, I still know the easy recipe so that's what I'll make when I'm lazy... but I know that better mixes exist without the use of MSG, and I should like to find out what they are.

Besides... the Gent said my apple pie was great first time I made it, but after playing with the cinnamon/sugar balance he's decided he likes the new version even more. I've discovered how to get the right balance of brandy to cream in truffles, and brandy truffles appear more popular than plain chocolate truffles. So I'm hopeful I can manage something similar with the fajitas, if I can only work out where to begin...


In terms of perversion, though, it's definitely on the menu this evening- I'm going to my local munch for a nice night out with other kinky perverts.

Seeing the tombstone of Mel Blanc, who supplied the voice of Bugs Bunny and hundreds of other Warner Brother's cartoon characters. Didn't we all learn sarcasm from Bugs Bunny?

Anyway, Mel Blanc's tombstone:

Just picked it up today the cost was high but was well worth it.

RIP Mel Blanc...what a great loss in the cartoon industry. I bet he would be disgraced with todays cartoons

Lollabooblooza: The Quest for Perfect Boobs In Video Games - a sarcastic review.

"Shut yer gobs before I turn ye into the dried fruit found at the end of an ogre's arse!"

LMAO!

I lied to my mom about going to school. Haha.

school's out tomorrow and friday. I'm happy

School Destruction Project of 2010. Who's with me??

2 boxes of Gevalia and a complimentary coffee maker for a single payment of $15? That makes my day.

I may have felt that way when I was younger but now destroying a school is like burning a book, anathema.

What made my day was working on the new house =)

Legend..................?

Learning a recent poll reports 71% of Americans say Sarah Palin's not qualified to be President of the United States.

You just made my day, Ben..

One of the greatest fashion designers - Alexander McQueen passed away today...I didn't expect it at all. Just thought I should mention it

This is the "WHAT'S MADE YOUR DAY?" thread, so you're saying the death of Alexander McQueen has made your day? Okay, but that seems strange to me. I suspect it should have been posted somewhere else. Hey, there's actually a whole FASHION secion where like-minded individuals might have been interested in this.

meh.

-------------------------------------

This HAS made my day ... some of the many, many, MANY reasons I will NEVER OWN A MAC!!!!!

And lawd, it made me laugh so. I actually had to stop the video at the "boat anchor" remark and catch my breath! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

I'm so sending that to my brother, he's been trying to get me to 'try' Mac for years.. rofl

I really love Regretsy, apparently some guy on Etsy is trying to sell a button from World War 11. I like the idea that World War 11 is a Canadian only affair with Queen Elizabeth 16 versus the evil Bloc Quebecois.

OMG! I am frickin' rolling!!!

"Square just shot themselves in the foot."

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

This is great news.

What made my day is finding out that due to the massive snow storm I will not be taking an exam tomorrow that I really need more time to study for, thankfully I now have the time I need.

LOLZ.

Okay, Stephen Fry trumps Regretsy, though its after midnight here so it counts as a seperate day.

I'm making chicken rogan josh for the first time tonight, and I found a nice easy recipe so I can make it from scratch without cheating! I don't want to use those pre-mixed pastes and curry sauces in jars, so I get to do it all myself.

[quote=Ben Lahnger;601510]This is the "WHAT'S MADE YOUR DAY?" thread, so you're saying the death of Alexander McQueen has made your day? QUOTE]

Yup. I was bored, turned on the TV and watched the news.
Tragedy on the media is always a stimulating thrill.

Well, I was just concerned because McQueen has generated comments in multiple threads around this board while the death of J.D. Salinger didn't seem to raise anywhere near as much interest. It may be just me but I value literature over fashion any day of the week. Literature has the capacity to last centuries. I doubt if anyone here could name any of McQueen's counterparts from 50 years ago without looking them up.

But it may be I have that opinion because I really wasn't that impressed with his designs.

Watching Jon Lajoie videos after a really hard economics test.

Matt Lauer talking about getting to carry the Olympic torch:

"You put on that silly outfit, and then before you get your turn, they give you a pep talk. 'That flame is the greatest symbol for peace the world has ever known.'

I don't care how cool you are, after someone tells you that and the runner before you approaches to hand the torch over, you turn to jelly."
