Shit, I have thems too.
The experiment:
Step on a nail. Make sure it punctures your shoe and penetrates your foot.
(You probably want to make sure you’re up-to-date on your tetanus shot first.)
Do it again. Yes, with the blood. Doesn’t matter if you wait a week or a couple of years in-between runs.
Now the fun…
“The Never Call: There are some people who love to text so much that the phone part of their cell phone has become completely obsolete. They’re like Tobias Funke the never-nude from Arrested Development, except instead of refusing to take off the last bit of clothing for a completely irrational reason, they are scared of a wonderful and time-honored mode of communication.”—

oh that is me. to a tee.
(via madeleinepascal)I am one of those people. But let me explain something to you. The telephone was an aberation in human development. It was a 70 year or so period where for some reason humans decided it was socially acceptable to ring a loud bell in someone else’s life and they were expected to come running, like dogs. This was the equivalent of thinking it was okay to walk into someone’s living room and start shouting. it was never okay. It’s less okay now. Telephone calls are rude. They are interruptive. Technology has solved this brief aberration in human behavior. We have a thing now called THE TEXT MESSAGE. It is magical, non-intrusive, optional, and, just like human speech originally was meant to be, is turn based and two way. You talk. I talk next. Then you talk. And we do it when it’s convenient for both of us.
Drunk-driving directions would be a serious WIN.
Shit now I wanna do this to all my shelves for all my books.
