sorry, chris brown. i don't buy it.

You know, everyone deserves forgiveness, but not everyone deserves a second chance to be an adored celebrity. There are plenty of talented vocalists/performers who manage to never beat the shit out of their girlfriends. I’ll be over here, enjoying their stuff, and not yours.
bees-knees asked: Do you have any book recs? I'm taking a trip to the library next week and would love some suggestions.

Is Remembering Faces And Names A "Girl" Thing? →
As someone who prides themselves on being a good face and/or name rememberer (usually faces), I found this worth the read. I totally don’t expect people to remember me/others all the time - especially if we’ve only met once, briefly. But I also think it’s a matter of you making it a priority to remember just that little bit of info about someone. It’s insulting when...

for indulgence; but find the following proclamation so frustrating:
“I live my life with no regrets.”
Translated, that really means:
“I refuse to imagine that anything I have ever done could have been done better. I don’t give a shit if I’ve hurt other people, broken hearts, crushed your dreams or failed you miserably… because what matters most is that I live a...

“This lunge at moral fastidiousness was something she’d noticed a lot in...”

WARNING: there will probs be a fair number of Lorrie Moore quotes around these parts in the near future because this book is DA BOMB

You made a plan. That’s that. Be a fucking adult.

Area Grandmother Comes Forward As 'Banksy' →
lolz. John and I went to see Exit Through the Gift Shop last night - the documentary about Banksy and street art in general - so this Onion heading is very timely for me! I’m interested in street art insomuch as I find it cool and would love to know more about it, but don’t consider myself to have an educated opinion right now.
The movie told such an interesting story about the...

and it takes every ounce of strength I have not to giggle and snort through the entire call.
bees-knees asked: First and more importantly, how have you not read the HP series until now? What are some other books that are on your summer "To Read" list?

As a whiskey-loving gal, I wholeheartedly agree with this.
Hey everyone who rides a bike: wear your f***ing...
Today I was on a bus going down Damen when we passed a scene at Fullerton and Elston (that god awful intersection) where someone had just been hit by a car while on his bike. He did not have a helmet on, was completely unconscious and there were a bunch of people who’d stopped their cars to try to help. He must have been hit pretty hard because one of his shoes was in the street a ways...
Allow me a moment to dork out
I just now finished Harry Potter book 7 and my heart is so full of both joy and pain it might burst. These books far surpassed my expectations and I wish I could go back and read them all again, without knowing what was in store.
