Dick with the Truth Segment: Entertainment?? Really?

So here is my "I can't fucking believe there is an audience for this shit" list:

• The Saw movies (seriously, who the fuck is buying enough tickets to this torture-porn bullshit that could warrant FIVE sequels???)
• Jeff Dunham (A ventriloquist who perpetuates stereotypes about Muslims, African-Americans, the elderly, Latinos, and purple hand puppets with green hair? And he's not funny. Ever. Even if this mega-douche was funny, I couldn't watch his act out of sheer principle.)
• Glenn Beck (Pull the silver spoon out of your ass, you whiny bitch. There's nothing more pathetic than a pasty white 40-something year old man-child who smears vaporub underneath his eyes to get out of being logical. You need a truth enema, asshole.)
• Tyra Banks (Take your cutesy psuedo-feminism and shove it up your "va-jay-jay", please.)
• Rock of Love, all of its spin-offs, Flava-of-Love, that Tila Tequila bullshit...basically everything that is on MTV and VH1 these days. Get a fucking life, people. I can't stand drama in my own life and I sure as hell don't want to watch a bunch of fuck-wads feigning emotional hell on TV either.
• Perez Hilton. Okay, we get it. Your a bitchy, gay latino who loves to hate celebrities and draw penises all over their pictures. Over it. (Props for bringing down that Carrie Prenshaw blowhard though)
• Jennifer Aniston movies (all of them)
• The Blue Collar Comedy Tour (You know you're a redneck if you think this bullshit is funny. Personally, it makes me want to throw myself in front of a speeding Nascar...car. Oh, the redundancy!)
• And finally... All the Fucking Vampire Bullshit!! When did vampires become cool again*?? (*Whether they were ever actually cool is debatable.) Sure, I'll admit, I watched a couple episodes of Buffy here and there (mainly only the ones that centered around that super-hot Faith chick) and The Lost Boys is a classic...But that was over a decade ago!! Jesus, how many different twists can there possibly to a vampire plot? They live forever, suck blood, and you can kill them with wooden stakes if you use nubile teen girls as bait. That's it. Holy fuck.

Lit Reviews, Statistical Support, and Rabbit Holes...Oh My!

This lit review for Dr. A's study is making me want to bang my head against hard objects...repeatedly. I have it all soooooo organized, with the citations placed within their spot on the outline, and the articles all stacked/saved in the order they will be cited within the article. Yet, once I sit down to write, it is all for naught. *sigh* The rule is: Must sit down to write for AT LEAST 30 minutes per day until it is finished. (I'm not going to tell you what my reward system is but trust me, it will get me moving.)

In my Experimental Psych class, Dr. Heart Throb, and the rest of the class, chose my experimental design for a class project. It was a study on the sexual double standard. I'm not going to go into technical details, as they would bore you, but my idea rocked. And my hypothesis, supported. There's nothing like designing your first experment, gathering and analyzing data, and getting statistically significant results in support of your hypothesis...if you are a super-nerdy budding scientist like me, that is.
Speaking of, I think Dr. HT is growing on me. Funny how I didn't get why everyone thought he was hot until he mentioned his subscription to my favorite magazine (Scientific American) and ran some extra, unnecessary post-hocs on my data (just for fun) at my request (despite the resounding groans of everyone else in that class). There's something wrong with me. Ha.

Anyway, all A's thus far in my classes. I'm not looking forward to the 3 poster presentations all within 2 days of each other, but I'm not worried about them either. Metric is coming in December, Peaches/Butthole Surfers at the end of this month...at least a couple things to look forward to. No Cowboys game this weekend, but oh well.

Oh yeah, and you can SUCK IT, Medco. I hope you (the company as a whole) die when the healthcare bill gets passed, you fucking assholes.

*deep breath*

Sorry 'bout that, you guys. Have a good week(end).
