On fun-sized advice.
dearcoketalk:
Dear Coquette,
Does it matter which college you go to?
Nope. No one cares where you go to college.
Hey. Since we’re all getting rejected from our dream colleges this time of year, any advice on moving on? Yeah. No one cares where you go to college.
I just got into the college of my dreams! Any advice on college, the rest of my life, how to wear blue and orange with pride?...
113 gifts in total
Unwrapping everything took three hours.
Got some pretty neat stuff. Also, now I don’t have a laptop that can’t even hold a 20% charge. This Christmas was pretty cool!
Being santa went successfully as well. All 6 people really liked their gifts when I dropped it off at their houses with Jovaughn, and the seventh is just holding on tight for a bit while their gift still ships in.

I probably couldnt date an amputee because I have a really strong phobia of dead things and injuries. I guess they would consider my phobia ableist but then aren’t they ableist towards my phobia? Welp!
No, Virginia, there is no Newt Gingrich
cognitivedissonance:
Newt Gingrich’s foray into the presidential race was almost adorable at first, but now, he’s just grating, particularly after today’s whining about not being on the primary ballot in his home state of Virginia. His campaign failed to meet the requirement of 10,000 valid signatures with 400 from each congressional district. It’s spelled out clearly in § 24.2-521 and §...
It's not fair D:
Didn’t eat breakfast today so I was pretty hungry. Aunts served me up two chicken thighs and some rice. I busted out the tortilla chips
and got full before I even finished half a chicken.

My job is to be altruistic
At any time it is possible, I am obligated to help other people. Not a total self-sacrificing philosophy since it’s not like I don’t count my own happiness as important.
It’s a useful thing for everyone since I’m so great at giving out advice and handling problems and “being there” and stuff, but I don’t really emotionally “care” for what...
On Up'ness
Friend: Sup
Me: Nothing. there is no such thing as "up" from a universal perspective. We could be on part of the earth that is facing "down" for all we know.

10 Reasons Not To Vote For Ron Paul →

readyokaygo:
1. Ron Paul does not value equal rights for minorities. Ron Paul has sponsored legislation that would repeal affirmative action, keep the IRS from investigating private schools who may have used race as a factor in denying entrance, thus losing their tax exempt status, would limit the scope of Brown versus Board of Education, and would deny citizenship for those...
You know, I'm scared of you a lot in real life
It’s fairly apparent that I do everything I can to avoid you.
But in my dreams, I cannot avoid you, and yet even though they are not real, you make me so freaking scared in them just from being near you in the dream. In the dream, I avoid talking to you like it was real life.
Oy, what an annoying notion.

Your “Yes, really” of the day.
Wow.
On letting it go.
dearcoketalk:
Do you believe in the saying, “If you love something, let it go. If it comes back to you, its yours forever. If it doesn’t, then it was never meant to be”?
Fuck no. That’s just some simple bullshit people who believe in romantic destiny say when they’re going through the bargaining phase after getting dumped.
Nothing about your love life is “meant to be,” nothing is “yours...

Ron Paul wants to define life as starting at conception, build a fence along the US-Mexico border, prevent the Supreme Court from hearing cases on the Establishment Clause or the right to privacy, permitting the return of sodomy laws and the like (a bill which he has repeatedly re-introduced), pull out of the UN, disband NATO, end birthright...

Anonymous asked: Why is there something rather than nothing?
Anonymous asked: Hi, I've picked up your blog recently and found it really interesting. I've noticed some things you said have some resemblance to the character, Abed, on the show, Community. Do you watch Community? If so, would you say you and Abed have anything in common?
Everyone Assumes I Do Well At Debate
It’s flattering, but incorrect.
I’ve been to a total of 27 tournaments so far.
I’ve only “advanced” at four of them. The farthest I’ve ever gotten was the top 8, which was while I was still in novice debate, mostly as a fluke since I got a Bye (free win) that time.
In the other three, the farthest I went was the top 16 or the top 32.
