Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes - the ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules and they have no respect for the status quo. You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them, disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing that you can’t do is ignore them. Because they...

Uh oh, I'm a bum again.
A mere three weeks ago, the hobo that sits before you was a somewhat productive member of society. I went to bed early, woke up early, focused on physical fitness … for a while there I thought I might have adopted an awesome new and healthy lifestyle. Now I spend my days fabreezing sweat pants as an alternative to doing laundry and pretending that playing Wii actually counts as a workout....
Suddenly into Jack's Mannequin. WAHHATTT?
Chris never fails to inspire me.
So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more dangerous to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man’s living spirit is...
Oh, and don't even get me started on Glee.

I know I fought to eliminate the whole “ReALly!?” scene in 2010, but I can’t help but recognize a situation in which the expression clearly applies:
Golden Globe for best picture, Avatar?
ReAlLy!?!?
Bullshit, bullshit, bullshit. Not that the Golden Globes are the end all be all of award shows, but REALLY hollywood foreign press? I’ll give Cameron the animation, but...

RDJ, a couple of brits, and a ginger midget?...
Obsessing over Sherlock like I knew that I would. The movie was actually really well done - the dialogue was fast paced and witty and I loved the music and sound effects. Psh, as if I could get past RDJ and his kickass old-man bod for long enough to notice anything else. And hey, Guy Ritchie finally has something to put on his resume. Everyone wins!

Bill Hader is officially the cutest cutie that...
Can’t get over how adorable he was on Jimmy Fallon.
As if anyone really cares, Operation Hardbody has hit a roadblock. That stupid ass gym turned out to be a scam. The student rate is awesome, but way too limited .. and the regular membership will full on rape my bank account. Moral of the story here: I HATE THE CITY AND ITS OVERPRICED EVERYTHING!!
Operation Hardbody officially begins on January...
Just joined a kickass gym with an amazing student rate. I’m prepared to start kicking my own ass starting ASAP. Although, I can’t decide whether to call this endeavor ”Operation Hardbody” or “Mission Hardbody.” Both names are pretty intense and quite badass, but which has a better ring to it?
What fucking day is it
I have no idea what day it is but I refuse to check because I’m afraid that my Google calendar will tell me that I still have 9023489023490 more days until I can go back to Boston and I simply cannot accept that. Whew. In other news, I’ve decided to move to Florida for the summer. How/why/exactly when, couldn’t tell ya. I’ve also decided to start paying extremely high...
The Soloist
It didn’t seem like my style of movie but I was bored, it was free, and Robert Downey Junior played the leading man. One hundred and seventeen minutes later, I walked into the kitchen for a snack, sat in between my little brothers on the couch, and attempted to mindlessly zone out to Spongebob Squarepants. But I couldn’t. And I can’t stop thinking about this movie.
