 You are a Theory Slut. The true elite of the postmodernists, you collect avant-garde Indonesian hiphop compilations and eat journal articles for breakfast. You positively live for theory. It really doesn't matter what kind, as long as the words are big and the paragraph breaks few and far between.

skipping my gender work and space class to do research for the selfsame class. oh yeah, good times. i could be studying for tommorrow's child development quiz while i wait, but meh. i think ive resigned myself to the c i will be receiving. fuck. whoa, lunch today was surreal. went to eat with hila, she joined these first years i vaguely know. the. most. pretentious. asswipes i have met in a good long while. stylish girls and even more stylish boys talking critiquing the new york times and glorifying the advocate. not that i give a damn about newpapers, but what the fuck, you act like a pretentious socially conscious prick and consider a lifestyle weekly your prime source of news. these kids, yeah, children, went on to talk about their halo teams with the passion and indignation they no doubt use when discussing, who the fuck knows, the deplorable conditions of some sri lankan wage slave whose product you buy anyway, fashionista little shit. then they complained about how martha stewart is so damn stuck up when she shops if their fathers' greenwich antique shops. they seem to be waiting for my assent, sorry, my dad's the guy who fixes the water heater in your overpriced goddmanquiche-eating boutiques. and we'll pull donuts on the lawn of your fucking million dollar westport lawn. fuckers. of course, that part just took place in my head, instead i spent the entirely meal in baffled slighlty amused/slighty disgusted silence. i really did just consider getting up and walking over to sit the some of the nerdy guys i want to know. im sure theyre way cooler about their halo tournies. im out |

ps forgot to mention, someone has managed to kick in the sheetrock in my stairwell three consecutive times. i left a "firmly worded" note. expecting to be called a whiny bitch or something, i was pretty boosted when others wrote their agreement and the maintenance workers left it up. and then someone ripped down the note.....and kicked another hole in the wall. so much for my iota of faith in people....... |
