Botched Poetry Reading
According to Jonah and Nicole, “Closet, get in the bitch.” and “Bunny cocks” are appropriate edits.

Book Suggestions
The other day I was in Amherst Coffee reading, Today I Wrote Nothing: The Selected Writings of Daniil Kharms. I was laughing so hard at it that the very next day the man who had been sitting across from me told me that he had gone out and bought it.

Wise Words
Me: Jesus Christ, the moment I'm done with my obsessing with hot philosophy dude I SEE HIM EVERYWHERE. Franklin, library in addition to Amherst Coffee
Nicole: Hahah I think you're still obsessing, just not in the same infatuated way.
Me: More like infuriated...his toolishness becomes more evident everyday.

Me: I've learned my lesson...everyone is human no matter how good their reading material or how much you want to rip their clothes off
Nicole: Hahahahhaaaha soooooooo true you silly girl. That's why you rip their clothes off and make sure they never speak and use them only for sex.

I generally hated all female Disney characters that have no personalities, I still do.

Political Science is Stealing My Soul
Yesterday I had the following thought, “I hate liberals and their fucking hippy bullshit.”
I CONSIDER MYSELF LIBERAL.
On the other hand, the liberal girl couldn’t defend her reasoning why drug testing high school athletes was so horrible except for the fact that it it is a breach of privacy to a certain degree and therefore violates the 4th Amendment, even though such drug...
