ultranow

is?

• is instant gratification better than no gratification?
• is a guy who seemed to initially only want sex but then seemed to warm to my personality when he realized he wasn't going to get sex right away going to call me for a date date as he expressed he would or is my not having gone home with him mean i'm nothing to him now despite our two hour conversation and twenty minute kisses?
• is it sad that it's the birthday of someone who at one point i had romantic feelings for and he for me but it didn't work out to even get off the ground because of circumstances beyond my control such as the circumstance of another person's life or is it simply another day with no meaning?
• is it being so dark when i get up for work a conspiracy to remind me of getting up for high school super early even though i don't have to go to high school anymore but it still feels like i do because i'm going somewhere there's work to do and people to be around and hours to pass and lunch to eat and the recess of coconut fruitstix from the creamery at pike place market?
• is it still a podcast even if i don't listen to it on an ipod but instead convert to mp3 in itunes then load to my cowon iaudio7 8gb for instance david guetta's superior mix with the spicy moniker "fuck me i'm famous" radio?

a sunday kind of hot fucking nude guy

after the hot fucking jump.

oh and listen to robyn's take on since u been gone in the orange box player in the sidebar.  sad not angry, at least on the surface.  different than kelly's version.  different.  not better or worse.

i know better, i think

among the myriad of outrageously priced condos going up in seattle is a tower called 1. opening 2008. what a coincidence. so am i.

so the tag line on the side (of course written in sans serif white font on a black background) is "YOU'LL KNOW 1 WHEN YOU SEE IT."

my ad copyrighting experience is screaming to me, as i pass the giant signage while i sit aboard a mostly empty bus, that it would be stronger as "YOU'LL KNOW 1 WHEN YOU SEE 1."

this is because the capital I reads as a 1 at first, but then the T in IT pulls me from the 1 to the letter I, diluting the expression, and the attention to the building name. what should in fact primarily dilute the attention of the building name to people in my position is that it's insanely unaffordable, de facto promotes predatory lending, and is soon to be frighteningly tall.

charlie brown, you're the ginchiest (when someone fucks with you and your friends and makes a new song)

from dj john, it's a charlie brown christmas massacre.  hey if qvc and hsn and that little girl on the corner in the snow on the way to her grandmother's house can sell christmas crap now in the heart of october, i can promote scratchtastic charlie brown cultural artifacts from 2005.

i like marmaduke

guess this would qualify as an ultranow visual mashup.  now give me a dollar.

does not taste good with milk

death cake at heretic saint.  for reals.

overheard at the seattle eagle underwear night because one of the people was me

welcome to a follow up of sorts to overheard at the seattle eagle tonight because one of the people was me.

me: i'm not sure this will work.  i mean look i've got brown sneakers and black socks.  normally my jeans would hide that.

him (scanning my situation up and down):  it's okay because your underwear is black.

me: oh right, like matching socks and belt.  i'm good then.

free new radiohead music now now now act now

new radiohead album currently available from radiohead's offical, legal, above board, for real album site inrainbows.com for free download or whatever you want to pay.  also as a discbox/download pre-order combo for pay.  as a jew, i paid whatever i wanted.  now i'm not saying that was bubkus, but as a jew and since i'm not super into radiohead...

okay i paid nothing and that has nothing to do with being a jew.

p.s.  loving track 4, weird fishes/arpeggi.

whatever he's drinking (water? vodka? ck one?) does a body good

after the nsfw jump because it's penissy, or should i say
p  e  n  i  s  s  y

immature intermission from my regularly scheduled maturity

"Very strong growing, upright, thorny purple stems covered with a white bloom which is outstanding in winter. Attractive fern-like foliage, pale green above, white beneath. Small rose-purple flowers followed by bloomy-black fruits. Makes an excellent thorny deciduous hedge which soon becomes impenetrable to intruders."

it's the plant name that's nsfw.
