Overheard-- sort of.
"TOO EASY FOR YOU TO RIDICULE PEOPLE AS "RETARDED" WHATEVER THAT MEANS. IF IT IS YOUR INTENTION TO CALL THEM FUCKED UP INORDER TO SUGGEST UR PERFECT AND A BINARY OPPOSITE THEN CONGRA-DU-FUCKULATION!!! LIFE IS NOT ALL THAT EASY…YOU SHOULD KNOW UR GAY FOR FUK SAKE!"

Comment made on a post about two idiot thieves from the podunk town in Iowa where I lived who, instead of getting ski masks, tried to cover their faces with permanent marker. Go here to see the post (complete with picture).

This. Website. Is. Hilarious.

http://ugliesttattoos.com.

Exactly what it sounds like.

To my more faint-of-heart readers: some of the featured tattoos are pretty disgusting, meaning: there are some penises. Tattoos on penises and tattoos of penises. I wish I was kidding.

Graffiti
There's a wall of graffiti at a parking lot near the music school that I always love to look at. Then I took pictures of it:
There's also an old, graffiti-covered couch.

Snuffie
Ryan and I were taking a walk near downtown recently and saw a few prints of this image hung on the sides of various structures: old buildings, electrical boxes of some sort, etc. I think it looks like a relative of Snuffleupagus (whose first name, according to Wikipedia, is Aloysius). Ryan thought it looked like a Bantha. Word is still out on what exactly it is.

Overheard
A violinist and cellist overheard in a crowded elevator in the music building, 7/7:

Violinist: "I think you hit that man in the face with your cello case."
Cellist: "Hey, you made a rhyme!"

"That man" was my choral conductor, Dr. Gray.


Overheard on the bus, 6/19:

"If you remember, that whale that played Willy-- was a girl. And the whale that played his mom-- was a boy."

Don't be mistaken by the childish syntax-- an adult said this.
