I Do
Congratulations Mikkie and Ryan, who really did get married on July 4.
And the devil is six. . .
And the devil is six. . .
An entire Pixies album is going to come out for Rock Band!!! (It’s Doolittle.)
Me = GLEE!
And if the devil is six THEN GOD IS SEVEN. GOD IS SEVEN!!
Harmonix- You guys rock my sox.
SO HAPPY!

This is some ridiculousness, you guys. It’s way too hot. Like melting faces at the end of Raiders kind of hot.
OMG, my melty face! New Jersey, why do you betray me with face melting weather?
-Ali
The girl from Charlotte Sometimes looks like me!
NO ONE ever looks like me on TV. RAD.
(KK, please do not say again, that I look like Asslee Simpson. *Shudder*)
Also, I love this song. And total bonus points for naming your band after a Cure song.
-Ali
I was going to tell you guys about my never ending love for really trashy movies, but the work math has burnt my brains to ded.
So, instead, because I feel there should be some posting, even if it is intermittent at best (Blame the math!)– Here’s what I will do. I am going to put my iTunes on shuffle, and I will relate the first 10 songs it plays. I promise not to skip anything, cause that would be cheating.
1. The Sound of Settling- Death Cab for Cutie– Oh, Death Cab. You make sadness fun. And bouncy. Really bouncy.
2. Bodysnatchers- Radiohead– I really like In Rainbows. I wasn’t the biggest fan of Hail to the Thief. I can’t really explain why. The album is really interesting to me, but a little too . . . dark? Distant? Something. I listen to this whole album at least 2-3 times a week, cause when the deadline of DETH is staring me in the face every morning, and the math is trying to kill me– In Rainbows helps me stay focused and chill. Also, here is a rad article about children drawing Radiohead . The raindrops. Also, Mikkie hates Radiohead.
3. Like It Or Not- Madonna– Ok, I don’t even remember downloading this song. wtf. Oh, wait. I’m remembering now. I will just go grab tons of music and put it on my iTunes. And then I forget it’s there. I like Confessions On a Dance Floor. This is not the best song off the album, but I like the chill vibe. And as always, a bonus for Biblical references.
4. Main Offender- The Hives– WOO! THIS IS MY MAAAAAIN OFFENDER! Got me saying WHYYYY ME! This song is awesome on Rock Band too. If you don’t rock out with the Hives, your rocking must be broken.
5. Planet Caravan- Pantera– I like this song, don’t get me wrong. But every time it pops up on my iPod, I think– Hey, Pantera. Where’s the screaming?
6. A Man is Shaving His B*lls- Patton Oswalt– Dude, I KNEW this was going to happen. I have 2 Patton Oswalt comedy CDs on my iTunes. And of course, THIS one pops up, and I promised not to cheat. So there. It is really funny, but I didn’t really want to type that title out. I compromised with the asterisk.
7. James K. Polk- They Might Be Giants– This song is the only reason I know anything about James K. Polk. Also, one time when I saw They Might Be Giants, there was confetti during this song. It was awesome.
8. The Great Southern Treadkill- Pantera– YES! This is more like it. AHHHHHH! SCREAMING! YAAAAAAAAAAH! AWESOME!
9. Fix Me- Black Flag– YAY! Black Flag makes me want to jump around and flail in a happy way.
10. Die- Bratmobile– Classic riot grrl stuff. Not as awesome as Bikini Kill, but still good. Soul Sisters to the End!

I just wanted to take a moment to point out that Sugar and Spite has been running now for 2 years. Happy Birthday to the Crazy.
~Mik
P.S. If you are wondering whatever happened to Magneto’s Helmet, someone finally bought it. Or, the store manager decided it would be best to remove it from display because of the two crazy girls who kept coming in and staring at it.
To go see a chiropractor already and get my back un-jacked–
You were right. Sorry it took me so long. And also for all the bitching.
-Ali
Diabolical Pea now exists in plushie form! He commands you to snuggle his terrible cuteness.
There are also tiny broken hearts. For the emo kids.
Keith Olbermann is hot.
That is all.
-Ali
ETA: Yes, yes he is. -Mik
I would like to know how it is that I keep going out on dates (or sort of dates) with guys who hate Nirvana. That is NOT ok.
Once is a fluke, and twice is a coincidence. Three times equals trend. We’re up to coincidence. But still, this is not ok.
It baffles the mind. How can someone hate Nirvana? Do you hate awesomeness too? And kittens?
I swear to god, both times it’s happened, I got deeply offended. I’m not trying to be funny either. How can you hate Nirvana because they “ruined hair metal”? Dude, seriously. I enjoy some Motley Crue, but let’s not kid ourselves like that music was important, ok?
I’m going to have to put this on my list of things where I might as well just give up on a date and go home, along with Really Liking the Star Wars Prequels A lot.
Ruined hair metal.
Good lord.
