Your pointless thoughts & observations

I’m weird, I love scrabble. Play it all the time. 

How come I have to cough when it goes down the wrong hole but gay guys get off scot-free when it goes up the wrong hole?

My landlord is a family friend and my parents have been giving him a generous amount of money every Christmas to the Keg, a nice restaurant. This year I asked him is it OK if my parents get him a different gift; I guess he guessed it was a money thing so he defensively says something like , to sum it up, "it's not that much money". I relay that to my mom and tell her like fuck it give him something else. Turns out my mom is giving him like a hundred dollars every year and he doesn't even say thanks to her. He's a really nice guy but he's well off and really weird about money; he always bring money into the conversation, asks how much something is that isn't his business, whatever. I bought him a card a couple Christmases ago and after he read it he flipped it over and read the price of the card and says "you spent that much on me!".

Sorry folks, had to rant.

My landlord’s last message mentioned his recent infatuation with Ravel’s second string quartet.  It was written in a heavier hand than I remember seeing.  Trees have lost their limbs and telephones have rung a little longer than they should have.  Such is Thanksgiving week’s interlude into a bold December.  Sometimes the morbid scares are more attractive than these hoarse undertones that are always veering a little with every comment that needs to be repeated over the arpeggios of falling ice.

Every time I make an album cover for myself I'm always reminded I don't know shit about graphic design.

Blues and Country should duke it out for this year's most IDM crown imho.

Tekashi 6ix9ine should make one last track about how hard it is to go into witness protection with so many face tats. Imagine him trying to be a mall Santa Clause in Fairbanks, Alaska or some shit and the hood still got em

He should change his name to Asinine. 

Facebook Scrabble doesn't appear to accept racial slurs anymore.

Sitting in the library with my friends drinking shitty £1.30 black coffee hating life and doing translation coursework.

A cup of coffee averagely costs 20 cents in production. That means whoever is selling you coffee for 1.30 is making a profit of 650%

That's only gone and made me feel even worse.

Just think of vaginas

That awkward moment when a Starbucks latte costs $6

Did you know * if you walk into a Starbuck's and order a latte with less milk they will most likely say "I'm sorry, I'm afraid we can't do that."  Then you say "no no, just do what you normally do, but stop pouring the milk sooner."  And then they will continue to tell you it's impossible, with no explanation given.  The future is here.

We can turn urine into drinking water on a station in space, but can’t make lattes with less milk at Starbucks. 
 

surely we have the technology lol

You can, but the goal here is to get a less milky latte.  With the small latte, the ratio of milk to espresso is still more of an espresso milkshake.  But it's my friend's ongoing struggle, not mine.  Also, they never suggest an alternative thing to order that would accomplish a similar thing.  Just "no, we can't pour less milk into the cup."

(It's happened at multiple Starbuck's)

a latte by definition has a lot of milk, so they are correct. for one with less milk you have to ask for a lesse.

*drum fill*

I think the observation is about how absurd it is that everything at a Starbucks is so standardized and automated for consistency that even asking for something slightly different will make the “barista”s head explode. 

Why is Starbucks?

On my way into the specialty goods grocery store a young woman was standing out front with a clipboard asking people of they're registered state voters. When she asked me next, I did not respond.
After I'd finished my shopping, she was no longer there. Did I hurt her feelings? I'll never know. Regardless, I don't take kindly to beggars or solicitors.

The reason she was no longer there, is because she is no longer with us.  Your rejection of her questionnaire finally pushed her to the tipping point, and, well... she's in a better place now.  * pours one out for survey woman *

lal

It was around noon tho. So she probably just went to grab lunch.
