Songs where rappers count are stupid. That is all. Carry on…

I’m sitting in my girlfriend’s condo (well it’s not hers, but you know what I mean) all by my lonesome. For the past 30 minutes, I’ve been trying my very best to ignore an ear-drum piercing emergency alarm that’s been echoing throughout the complex. My girlfriend says that it’s nothing to worry about and that the sound will cease soon. The annoyance meter is off the charts at the moment. Too bad emergency alarms don’t come with a snooze button.

Yeah i made hemmingway comment sluk like the once Brian has in www.avalonstar.com infact i had made hemmingway luk exactlly like his webiste …

I think I’ll ignore the fact that the guy is talking about stealing a design element from Bryan (which is incredibly lame). Instead, his post urged me to write a message to anyone who writes anything for public consumption on the internet: Please spell your goddamn words correctly.

I fear that the more I’m bombarded by sloppy-ass spelling on the internet, the more likely I will be to make those same mistakes.

I saw someone type the word(s), “orphan edges” earlier today. I guess I can’t be too concerned with someone who doesn’t know that orphanages is a single word when the guy I quoted earlier fucked up the word look twice in one post and can’t tell the difference between once and ones.

Maybe I just expect more from everyone who didn’t fail their English class in high school. (It wasn’t my fault, damnit. Mrs. Wilson was totally out to get me!)

A project I was helping with just went live: the QN5 Blog. It’s written by the artists of QN5 Music, an independent hip-hop record label (of which I’m a big fan, so it was great to be able to hook them up with a site and design). Tell your good ol’ pals all about it!

On My Mean Girl (one of my other blogs), I wrote an extensive post listing seven songs I’d been listening to recently. Here are the seven songs that made my list:

• Substantial – “The Starving Artist”
• Tonedeff, Mecca, Session, PackFM – “Fear”
• Barenaked Ladies – “Box Set”
• PackFM – “Free-Esta”
• Dido – “Do You Have A Little Time”
• Nelly Furtado – “Maneater”
• Tonedeff – “Pervert”

The post on my other blog is more detailed, containing lyric excerpts and my own notes about each of the songs. Go check it out!
