Poutine

Say that with me, kids. “Poo-teen”. This is not “poutain,” French for hooker. Or any other thing it might sound like to my american ears. TBE has made many claims about the wonders of this dish. Wikipedia can tell you the finer details.
All I know is that when I first met him he was talking about how much he loves to eat poutine and I thought, “Well, that’s more than I needed to know about you on a first encounter.” Tonight, finally, I will be trying this much-hailed dish and trying not to snort it out my nose as I recall what I originally pictured as he said poutine had fries in it.

Update: Think mashed potatoes and cheese+gravy. Sooooo goooooood. I never want to eat that again. I think I ate my caloric intake for the year.

I would like these features:

  1. E-ink Screen-I want to see my screen even in the sun; it also helps accomplish #4
  2. use a finger/stylus and write on it.
  3. Use Microsoft office stuff’n’junk on it
  4. Better battery usage-I want to be able to use my phone unplugged
  5. Better processor-I want it to be a mobile computer.
  6. a version with a tactile keyboard for those that don’t like screen kind
  7. UI that requires LITTLE-to-no fiddling about to learn. I want my techinept friends to be able to point at what they want and WHAM! it did what they wanted plus what they didn’t know they wanted but look it did it and they’re happy!
  8. Ability to actually run several applications at once (yeah, I’m an iphone user. Shuddup, windows people)
  9. Talk time should equal minimum 24 hours if someone isn’t using their dataplan blah
  10. Talk time should equal minimum of 10 hours if the user is using their dataplan and blah blah
  11. Video should have a decent resolution that makes it Youtube hd
  12. Video should have a flash (yeah, its an iphone 3gs I currently have, shutyerface)
  13. Picture quality should be good enough for facebook
  14. It should have bluetooth because all phones have it and its nifty
  15. It should be able to use microsd or some standard storage that works with windows/mac/other
  16. It should have a power station that works on many different phones so that each time I update I don’t have to buy all the accessories again. Do you remember the old power stations with the spot for two batteries? What about a station kinda like that but you just set your phon on it and automatically starts charging? You can buy a skin for the iphone that lets it do that with a special pricy doodad. Just make the phone already incorporate special pricy doodad! Then you can offer DIFFERENT COLORED PLUG-IN-THE-WALL-STATIONSZOMG!
  17. It should feel durable. Even if it isn’t, I want it to feel like it is well made.

So, uh, yeah, when you want to talk to me about that… lemme know. Cool, thanks.

TBE – My butt smells like roses!
Me – Peonies are more fragrant!

There is a person here who really emphasises the “s” at the end of her words as she thinks of what she wants to say. I love it.

Kissing ass for money seems to be better than kissing ass for none.

TBEjust grabbed my flight to Florida to take me to Disney World, end of September! I am so excited! It hasn’t totally hit me that he did in fact do that for me, despite the fact I have the confirmation emaill, but I am so thrilled to get to go! When I first heard he was going I was jealous I wouldn’t be able to go (my salary? +-$0 at any given moment) and when he suggested I ask my parents, I knew that was laughable. In the span of 20 minutes he went from telling me to ask my parents to paying for my flight. I’m considering that a Birthday/Christmas/Valentines/Birthday/Christmas gift

All I really want to know is: What have I done right so I can keep doing it?

My neighbor just loudly proclaimed he comes home to a shit-hole and watches pornography while masturbating. Oh, Thin Wall, what have The Roomie and I shared through you?

I just spent a minute of my life looking for my phone as my happy chimes rang, calling to me. The phone was in my hand but not ringing. It was only at the last passing of the ringtone that I realized it was coming from the ceiling. I agree, upstairs neighbor, iPhones are dandy.

Mario vs. Mario

TBE says, “Mario” the way it’s said in this video. Atari commercial for Mario Bros

I say, “Mario” like this

Naturally, I’m right.

Pound him

TBE: do you want to go to pound-me-in-the-ass-prison for copyright violation? That’s my song!

Ann: Do I want to go to pound-you-in-the-ass-prison?

TBE: psh.
