Earlier I was at the bookstore on campus, and since I'd been drinking coffee I had to use the restroom. So I go to the hallway and pass the women's room, which has a sign on the door. It said something along the lines of "Please no merchandise beyond this point!" etc. etc.

Then I get to the men's room, which did not have any sign about merchandise or anything.

What does this mean? It shows that women are more likely to steal, and as such are not trusted to bring merchandise into a private area.

Don't try to argue this. It's scientific fact.

The other day I was studying on the first floor of the campus library with a friend of mine. This moderately cute girl came up to us and was like, "Can you help me find these books?" She said that there should be someone on the first floor to help her out, but there wasn't (there never is). I volunteered to help her, and she asked how the system worked. I explained that you just look at the cards placed on the sides of the aisles, which are in descending/ascending order, and go from there. She was like, "Oh," and I took her to where the first book should be.

"What's the book called?"

"Uh, I don't know."

"...well, it's not here, so maybe it's checked out. What did it say in the computer?"

"I didn't look it up, some guy upstairs gave me the call numbers."

So, she was an idiot, and I was getting annoyed. She asked again how to find the books, so I explained it AGAIN, and left her alone. Seriously, when you get into college, they explain all this to you, but how do you even get into college without knowing how to find a book in a library? The worst part was that she was a full-on Monet.



Hollywoodland: 7.5/10
The Philadelphia Story: 8/10
All About Eve: 10/10 (amending this previous score. What a perfect movie.)

At work earlier today a girl who looked about 25 walked by. She was normally dressed and very ordinary, except she had a small piercing in her left eyebrow. No tattoos or excessive piercings or anything like that, just an everyday girl with a pierced eyebrow.

So the girl walked away, then some old lady behind her came up and started rambling, saying something like, "Can you believe that? Kids these days. If God wanted holes in our body, he would've put them there." That's a direct quote.

I shrugged it off, since I really don't care what people ramble about while I'm at work. Then a second later I looked at her ears, and as expected, she had some enormous earrings on. Well, 'enormous' by my standards. About the size of a quarter.

Some people need to think a little more about how they go around preaching, especially when they're doing the exact same thing they're looking down on.

Today I saw this Women's Magazine that had on the cover something like The Da Vinci Code Diet! WHAT THE HELL?!

I can somewhat understand the obsession over a popular (note the word 'popular' and not 'good) novel-turned-movie, but come on. Maybe I just don't get it, but I don't know how Leonardo Da Vinci, Dan Brown, or Tom Hanks can help you lose weight. Unless, of course, you keep a strict routine where you're only allowed to eat when there's a good line of dialogue in the movie, because then you'd be sure to starve. Akiva Goldsman needs to write more 'A Beautiful Mind' and less 'Batman & Robin'/'Batman Forever.'

People are going crazy over this movie . . . good thing X-men 3 comes out next week and will dominate everything.
