It's Wednesday
Hey everyone!
Our usual "It's Wednesday" list writer has been (forcefully) given a well-deserved day off.
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving, and we will be adding a special Thanksgiving post. In the meantime, as it is Wednesday, I'd like to present the following three lists...The first is entitled "The Opposite of the 'I'm Thankful for...' List", the second "How to Kill a Relationship", the third "Things to Make You Laugh and Survive the Holidays."
(PS feel free to add anything in the comments on this post, and it will be edited in before next week).
The opposite of the "I'm Thankful for..." list
-The G Train
-When you sneeze inwardly
-When your seat on the subway is warm
-When your pillow is too warm, but you are too tired to flip it to the other side.
-When your arms get caught as you are trying to take off your jacket
-When it decides to rain every time you wear a new/nice pair of shoes.
-When the best laid plans run awry.
-When some food produce expires that you were planning to eat that day for lunch.
-When you just miss the bus, and it pulls away slowly, mocking you.
-When a seat opens on the train, just as you reach your stop.
-When your battery dies half-way through a boring class.
-When Rachelle tickles you, and Natalia talks about pajamas in the middle of class.
-People who double-dip.
-The smell of burnt crayons follows you near the lounge.
-Global warming.
-When people are insensitive.
-War.
-Hunger.
-Cheese in a can.
-Mushrooms
-When your socks have a hole at the toe
-When your socks have a hole at the heel
-When your shoes get wet and start to smell
-When you think there is an extra/less step in the staircase.
-When you trip on uneven sidewalk and people see you stumble.
-Seafood.
-Anger
-Hatred
-Violence
-Paper cuts
How to kill a relationship:
1. Write poetry
In the words of Elizabeth Bennet:
“And that put paid to it. I wonder who first discovered the power of poetry in driving away love? …Of a fine stout love, it may [be the food of love]. But if it is only a vague inclination I'm convinced one poor sonnet will kill it stone dead.”
2. Act like Edward Cullen (and if this doesn't end the relationship, it wasn't one worth being in)
3. Wear a snuggie in public•
4. Not bathing/bad hygiene (We all love hippies, but come on, man, it's 2009!)
5. Poison/hurt pet/plant of significant other
6. Ridicule person's identity of self*
7. Physical violence*
8. Threatening significant other (for example, google Maffia and maffia related behavior)*
9. Poisoning significant other*
10. (see "Opposite of 'I am thankful for...'" list)
11. Leave girlfriend for pregnant ex-girlfriend/Get pregnant by ex-boyfriend and leave current boyfriend.
12. Twilight• (see no. 2.)
13. Be into obnoxious music
14. Act like Bella from Twilight (although I hate adding Twilight to a list more than once, I think this applies) (see no. 2, 12)
15A. Propose marriage too soon....or in a terrible way
15B. Act like Mr. Collins (from Pride and Prejudice)•.
16. Tell significant other you are actually into the other sex (ie...in a heterosexual relationship, pretend to/actually be homosexual, and in a homosexual relationship, pretend to/actually be heterosexual).
17. Tell significant other you are actually an alien•
18. Admit to being a Scientologist (only works if you and your significant others are not Scientologists).
19. Tell significant other he/she reminds you of your mother (in a Freudian kind of way)•
20. Tell significant other you are interested in his/her mother/father (in a non-platonic way)•
--------
* Note, will not work if person is masochistic
• May not work with everyone, some people are actually into these things...consider this carefully before taking this action...
---------------
Things to make you laugh and survive the holidays (or any other time you need a laugh)
Brian Regan:
I can't remember names... And I always try to do the nickname thing, to get out of it. Everybody knows what you're trying to pull, you know?
"Heeeeey... buckaroo."
"My name's not buckaroo."
"Sure, sure it is... partner"
Some people get really upset if you say their name wrong, especially if they have a name that's similar to another name. Carolyn and Caroline. They got a thing about that, man. Don't get that wrong, 'cause they're gonna drill you. "Hi, Caro... lyn."
"It's Caroline. It's Caroline, Brian..."
"It's BRIOOOOHHHN. Yes, my name is BRIOOOOOOGGHHN!!! It's very hard to say my name correctly, 'cuz my name is BRANNAAGHAMMANGAAH!!! Can you say that? Very few can. Correctly."
quotes: http://www.goodreads.com/author/quotes/98398.Brian_Regan
Demetri Martin:
“I like parties, but I don’t like piñatas because the pinata promotes violence against flamboyant animals. Hey, there’s a donkey with some pizzazz. Let’s kick its ass. What I’m trying to say is, don’t make the same Halloween costume mistake that I did.”
quotes: http://captainpinhead.wordpress.com/2006/10/01/demetri-martin-quotes/
Monty Python:“Your highness, when I said that you are like a stream of bat's piss, I only mean that you shine out like a shaft of gold when all around it is dark”
quotes: http://thinkexist.com/quotes/monty_python/
Dylan Moran: I think that women just have a primeval instinct to make soup, which they will try to foist on anybody who looks like a likely candidate.

On November 13,
Felix Unger was asked to remove himself from his place of residence; that request came from his wife. Deep down, he knew she was right, but he also knew that some day he would return to her. With nowhere else to go, he appeared at the home of his friend, Oscar Madison. Several years earlier, Madison's wife had thrown HIM out, requesting that HE never return. Can two divorced men share an apartment without driving each other crazy?

The Gauntlet is Thrown
Hey Kids!
For those of you who were wondering what happened to last week's post, it was up, but then the Yankees stole it. (Okay, there's my jaded jab of the week)
NOW, this week is 2 lists. WHY??? Because the Freudian Slip Films is offering it's first OFFICIAL CONTEST, complete with A PRIZE!!!!!
The contest is essentially as follows.
A few weeks ago, 2 agents of FSF went to have lunch at the TOZT cafe on Kissena Boulevard
While enjoying their cream of spinach soup, a man walked into the cafe...apparently straight out of Pride and Prejudice.
This was no ordinary man, but a BROODING VICTORIAN MAN. (Herein referred to as BVM)
He is tall, with very pale skin and dark hair and a black waist coat. We suspect he speaks with a British accent, but are not entirely sure.
We are fascinated by this man. Those of you who know Queens College intimately know that, by and large, if it's not gay, its shomer here (FSF-ers excluded) (unless you are one of those two things, because there's nothing wrong with that) (moving on)
If you find BVM anywhere, you will win the FSF prize and the glory of being everyone's hero for ever and always.
So, FIRST LIST= WHERE MIGHT I LOOK FOR BVM????
*TOZT
* G-Building
*Flushing Main Street Library
*Quickly's
*In a Jane Austen novel
*ANYWHERE
There are no rules for this contest, other than find BVM and acquire a fact about him (i.e. name, student status...)
SECOND LIST= WHAT IS THIS PRIZE?????
We have a $25 budget for our first contest. The winner gets to pick whatever prize they like in that range. Some ideas
~Straight up, $25
~Lisa will bake you cookies/cake/flan/whatever you like
~The complete works of Shakespeare
~The complete works of Douglas Adams
~Monty Python's Flying Circus, Season 3 on DVD
~Dinner date
~Movie voucher
~Sky Dancers
~Tickle-Me Elmo
~Foot Undies.
So... GET OUT THERE AND FIND MR DARCY.
That is all
P.S. Welcome to our new minimalist layout, inspired by the colors of the paintings of Piet Mondrian.
