Currently Watching Garden State By Zach Braff, Peter Sarsgaard, Natalie Portman see related

Its Monday and I have the pleasure of laughing at everyone not in WSFCS for it is their last day of break. Pa ha ha. Its my third post and I figured its about time to explain my screen name thing.

The name comes from a song, not just some crazy American egomaniacal spell that has invaded my soul, by Ben Folds on his second EP. The song is about how there are people who are that "someone cooler than you" but in ways that totally best perfect hair and an uncrampable style.

Smile
Like you've got nothing to prove
No matter what you might do
There's always someone out there cooler than you

I know that's hard to believe
But there are people you meet
They're into something that is too big to be

Expressed
Through their clothes
And they'll put up with all the poses you'll throw
And you won't

Even know
that they're not sizing you up
They know your mom fucked you up
Or maybe let you watch too much TV

But they'll still look in your eyes
To find the human inside
You know there's always something in there to see

Beneath
The veneer
Not everybody made the list this year
Have a beer

Make me feel tiny if it makes you feel tall
But there's always someone cooler than you

Yeah, you're the shit but you won't be here for long
Oh, there's always someone cooler than you
Yeah, there's always someone cooler than you

Now that I've got the disease
In a way I'm relieved
'Cause I don't have to stress about it like you do

I might just get up and dance
Or buy some acid-wash pants
When you don't care then you got nothing to loose

And I won't
Hesitate
'Cause every moment life is slipping away
It's ok

Make me feel tiny if it makes you feel tall
But there's always someone cooler than you

Yeah, you're the shit but you won't be it for long
Oh, there's always someone cooler than you
Yeah, there's always someone cooler than you
Oh, there's always someone cooler than...

Life is wonderful
Life is beautiful
We're all children of
One big universe
So you don't have to be a chump

And you know (you know)
That I won't (I won't)
Hesitate (hesitate)
'Cause every moment life is slipping away (away)
It's ok (it's ok)

Make me feel tiny if it makes you feel tall
Oh, 'cause there's always someone cooler than you

Yeah, you're the shit but you won't be it for long
But there's always someone cooler than you
Oh yeah, there's always someone cooler than you
Because there's always someone cooler than you

Cooler than you (boy)
Cooler than you (girl)
Cooler than you (sir)
Cooler than you (my lady)

Oh
Nerds go wild
Yeah Yeah

If you don't own that EP you need to get it, All You Can Eat and Rockstar and the other three tracks are all flippin' awesome!

Hey y'all,

I want to give a big shout out to my main man Billy Gates ova dare at Microsoft, his boyz fixed my LAUNCH like a stray dog.  Enough of that, its playing Bruce, my moment of Zen.

Good jorning everybody,

Its a sad night tonight, as we gather in the streets for the most artificial holiday and the most pointless celebration of them all. Am I a cynic? Do llamas spit? The point is that the concept of set time, new and old years, are completely dimwitted.  Saturn has a new year every 43 years.  Besides, its not like we aren't going to have a new year.  Besides all the other gibberish related to it...

Too bad my neighbors are too dull to realize that it doesn't matter, beyond getting a new calendar.  Maybe if they would the fireworks would be saved for a time when fireworks are appropriate.  Like never.  Oh well.

The real point of this entry is to smash the bubbly over this thing and what a great bottle of bubbly I have.  My LAUNCHCast has been resurrected.  Alas, the eyelids droop.  Be sure to make your list of problems with easy solutions, like we need an occasion to fix something.
