My mother, approx 2 seconds ago, telling me what...
“Did you know there is fireworks at the Embarcadero? That’s supposed to be crazy. Do you know The Mighty? It is in Portrero Hill? There is a party there. Is that where you’re going? The End Up? Are you going there? It is a club. There is a party from 10 - 2 AM. They have 20 DJs one after another. I don’t know if it is the Mighty or maybe The End Up, but there is a...

Nickblr > You: Best of 2010 CD →
nickblr:
So, 2010 is coming to an end and that means it’s time to recap the year. So my coworker, Nate, told me something he does each year is make a Best of the year CD. Traditionally people will select the songs that they liked from the year and fit it on a CD, but there seems to be too much pressure…
As usual, Nick Wong does it again and releases an awesome playlist. Listen to this!...
It is stupid to wear a belt to a buffet.
Especially if it is a Christmas dinner buffet, and you got there at 10:30 AM.

I keep on telling this as a joke:
and folks don’t really laugh. I can’t tell if it’s because my joke is too damn intelligent, too damn dorky, or just 0% funny. In any case, it is clearly inappropriate to tell this as a standalone joke. It requires the proper context. If YOU come up with the right way to frame it, I will pay you a million dollars. Because I’m convinced this is the smartest thing I’ve...

This Is Funny, You Should Watch It of the Day: On today’s episode of MTV’s American Talk With Josh Horowitz, host Josh Horowitz tries desperately to teach the strange, foreign cast of Harry Potter to speak the right way — the American way.

Yes, this is old. But in my mind, it’s never too late to reblog something this adorable.

Things my Extended Korean Family Says
[My parents and I went down to LA last weekend to celebrate my Grandma's 90th birthday with the rest of the Kim clan. Here, we are gathered around my grandma's dinner table, watching as she opens gifts.]
Me: (laugh)
Grandma: (something in Korean I can't understand)
Everyone: (laughs)
Me: What did she say?
Grandma: Why you laugh like a boy??
---
Dad: You should find a Korean boyfriend. Then you can speak Korean with him.
Me: I can't just find a Korean boyfriend. They're not all weird like you, Dad.
Dad: I'm glad.
Me: What? Why glad?
Dad: I'm glad you had a good father.
---
Me: Why don't you move to the west coast? Your whole family is here.
Uncle Jay, an older and curmudgeonly uncle: There is nothing for me to do here.
Me: There's a lot for you to do here; the weather is so nice --
Uncle Jay: My doctor is there. My pool is there. My gym is there.
Me: You realize all those things exist on the West Coast, right?
Uncle Jay: (pretends to be asleep)

The Pleasures of Pessimism by Alain de Botton →
“The modern bourgeois philosophy pins its hopes firmly on two great, presumed ingredients of happiness: love and work. But there is vast unthinking cruelty discreetly coiled within this magnanimous assurance that everyone will discover satisfaction here. It isn’t that these two entities are invariably incapable of delivering fulfilment, only that they almost never do so for too long. And...

THINGS MY PARENTS SAY:
I was watching this video of Katy Perry singing Firework on Ellen. My mom, working at her computer, overheard.
Mom: What is THAT? Mom: I would be embarrassed to put that on Youtube. Mom: Is she suffering? Mom: It sounds like she is suffering.

At dinner with Ken, their employee:
Mom (describing a patient): She was a drummer, and a waitress, and she used to be a...

kambr: Conversations I have had with Amrita during... →
kambr:
AMRITA: WHY are all of your friends hot? ME: Every time I introduce you to someone in my lab, you think they’re hot. AMRITA: That’s not true. I didn’t think —- was hot. He looks like the first guy who runs out in those kung fu movies. The one who gets killed first. Where are you going? COME BACK. ME: I NEED TO GET SOUP. GET AWAY FROM ME.
