Found out I have cable today (we have been paying for it for over a year and just realized it). I've spent the evening watching WWE and 16 and Pregnant. I wish they would shut the cable off...

A friend of mine cancelled his cable this past April and hasn't been charged since then...it still hasn't been turned off.

Was going to go to bed about 3 hours ago in order to wake up early to finish my essay final due at 1 PM, got distracted by the internet for 2 1/2 hours and decided just to stay up and finish my essay final now, woo finals week

[Phi]

damn I dont miss school at all. procrastinating an assignment then having to stay up all night to finish it is one of the worst feelings ever.

[patty_d_27]

It's weird, I feel like I work better under pressure, and usually I'm done my work relatively early and in bed by 12 or 1 but this is a rare occurrence

The same thing happened with us and Amazon Prime.

I have been grossly misinformed about what tumblr is apparently.

[garageland]

Its creepy for me to think that she has an internet presence. I'm also betting she is a member of some super-crazy, ultra-secret extreme coupon clippers message board. Kinda like Inforoo but insa...

Kinda like Inforoo

I keep using that word. It does not mean what I think it means.

You guys should check out Sarah Jaffe on Kimmel tonight. She is an indie-rock/folk singer from Denton, TX who has been big on the Dallas scene for awhile now. She has recently opened for Norah Jones and New Multitudes and has been gaining some nationwide attention by showing up on a few sites and magazines best albums of 2012 lists.

The Felice Brothers just got added as the opening act to Mumford and Sons...

In other pretty sweet openers news, Langhorne Slim is going to be opening for Grace Potter for some shows in the new year. An odd but awesome mix.

Remember hearing her on npr a while back. Good stuff.

I got excited at the Felice opening for Mumford news and just went to check the DC shows - no Felice Brothers (whom I really like), but Ben Howard's opening. This is good news also.

[itrainmonkeys]

Felice are only opening 2 shows apparently. One BK and one in Boston.

Yup. But since I saw them this summer, getting Ben Howard as opener works for me.

Working through the LOTR trilogy, as is our Christmastime tradition. Tonight is ROTK, part 1. Anyway, it's taken this year's viewing to realize...

the actor who plays Boromir totally looks like Richard D. James.

[katbur2]

I need to rewatch those, especially with our new tv, I'll actually be able to see everything

Thanks for the inspiration.

Wel...

"I didn't really know who they were," the 70-year-old Beatles legend told The Sun. "They are saying how good it is to be back together. I said, 'Whoa? You guys haven't played together for all that time? And somebody whispered to me, 'That's Nirvana. You're Kurt.' I couldn't believe it."

COLOR ME EXCITED!

[Godzilla]

It's official: The film was not the most exciting sneak peek at the Les Miz premiere.

Thank you, Anne Hathaway. Thank you very much.

[wannaberoo'ing]

I'm definitely staying home tonight now to see the Macca-fronted reunited Nirvana. Mind blown.

So I might be crossing the line with this comment, but I'm legitimately curious to see what others think.

why are you an jerkstore? i made like 10 post in like 7 months and never really stated what bands i like.

you like kanye who doesn't know how to play any instruments. he is an attention whore who can't play any instruments. so yes i will respect talented musicians not people who can talk with music playing on a cd player and calling themselves musicians/rappers/artist.

When people say shizt like this, my immediate assumption is that they're racist.

[itrainmonkeys]

What if he's talking about Eminem and Mac Miller?

[nodepression]

Yea, it's coded but it's there. Kind of scary how many comments like that we've gotten over the years.

[itrainmonkeys]

I understand not liking rap. But to say that all rappers are untalented and not musicians is crazy talk.
