JP in the house

As I recently explained, I am intrigued by politics. For this reason alone, I have gotten involved in the Colorado Political Scene. I was involved with the Boulder County Democrats during election season last fall volunteering to count ballots and … Continue reading →

No-drama O-Bama

I am an avid magazine reader and I just sat down tonight to read my new Time magazine for the week. The seam of the magazine turned me to an article by Joe Klein discussing “The Real Peace Prize. How … Continue reading →

A Bag of Popcorn

I decided to open up with the recent speech (or start rather) that Benjamin Nentanyahu, the Prime Minister of Israel, gave to the United Nations. It was very controversial, and I know that it got a lot of reactions. I’m … Continue reading →

Things to ponder

What happens if you're scared half to death twice? Do any college students actually study before finals week? Why is it that when something says permanent we always mess up? If love is blind why is lingerie so popular? Isn't a word to the wise unnecessary? It's the stupid ones who need the advice isn't it? Why is it that night falls but day breaks? If horrific means to make horrible does terrific mean to make terrible? Why aren’t there any songs dedicated to Thanksgiving? If you were taking a metaphysics exam would it be cheating if you looked into the soul of the person next to you? You have pessimists and you have optimists but what are you called if you're neutral? How can you be both down and up for something? Why can dogs openly sniff and lick each other but if humans did, it would be weird? Why do fat chance and slim chance mean the same thing? What do sheep count when they can't get to sleep? When you choke a Smurf, what color does it turn? What do they pack Styrofoam in? If Barbie so popular, why does she come with friends? Why is there an s in lisp? If pro is the opposite of con, is progress the opposite of congress? Why call it "take" a dump, when you leave something behind? What do they pack Styrofoam in? If the cops arrest a mime, do they tell him he has the right to remain silent? If you ate pasta and antipasti, would you still be hungry? If ATM stands for Automatic Teller Machine, why do we call it an ATM machine? And if PIN stands for Personal Identification Number, why do we call it a PIN number? Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure? Why do fat chance and slim chance mean the same thing?

Urban Dictionary Definition of the Moment

Objectively Attractive:

A phrase used by a spouse or significant other who is incapable of admitting they find another person truly handsome, beautiful, or sexually attractive.

"Well, I guess that guy over there is objectively attractive but I don't find him interesting."

Shoe Whore:

1. Someone who owns too many shoes.
2. Like a bag hag but obsessed with shoes.
Carrie from Sex and the City is a shoe whore.

Caraoke:

Singing along with music in a car, especially loudly and passionately.
That long road trip felt a lot (shorter/longer) because of the Caraoke.

Facebook Crush:
A crush on a FB friend is characterized by the unexplainable urge to revisit the friend's Photos tab repeatedly and checking to see if other friends have written new messages on their Wall. Usually afflicts users who are only somewhat acquainted.
"I've got a Facebook crush on a guy I was going to rent a room from, but in the end we just friended each other."

Obama
No real definition for this word is possible at this time. Check back in 4 years by then a consensus by have formed. Each person projects his personal beliefs and values onto this word, and a standard meaning isn't possible at this time.
Is Obama Ronald Reagan, or Jimmy Carter.

Boulder
Boulder is a city in Colorado that houses Colorado University. It is a new age, hippy-modern Subaru loving piece of shit town, but besides Denver it is the only place in the state worth going.
Hey, let's go up to the hill!

Okay.. That's the only thing to do in Boulder anyways.

{21}

The legal drinking age in the United States.

After Prohibition, the age was usually 18 depending on the state, but then in the 1980s President Reagan created a highway subsidy program which basically bribed the states under the condition that the drinking age was raised to 21.

As a result, immaturity, irresponsibility, partying, DUI, and bar attendance increased by an additional 3 years, which continues to this day.

When you compare America to European countries which don't have a legal drinking age, you realize that this behavior is irreversible in the short term and thus no politician will ever lower the drinking age back to 18. Except the Libertarian Party or maybe Ron Paul.
I'm 21, I'm too old for getting drunk and partying. Time to get a job.

-vs-

Hey, I'm 21, I can legally get Drunk! Let's Party!

Like

(Orig. to enjoy or a word to compare two things.)
1. A term used by many junior high and high school students for having a crush.
2.(v.) same as "said" or "spoke"
3.In some teenage girls, a word spoken in between each word in a sentence.
1.Hey Jane, I heard that John likes you. Yeah, he really wants you.
2.". . .and so Strongbad was like, 'And the dragon comes in the NIIIIIIIIIGGGGHHT!'"
3. "Yeah, like, i think, like, N Sync is, like, sooooooo, like, cool and, like, dreamy."-some girl

Halloween
It's when you dress up in either cheap, store-bought costumes or elaborate, self-made ones, watch Rocky Horror Picture Show, get your friends to do the Time Warp, and go on a severe candy binge. Until someone spoils your fun by reminding you that it's April.
Halloween is when you're supposed to beat up little kids dressed-up as Sponge Bob Square Pants.

College
A magical place where it is rumored that learning takes place, although to those who enter it is often described differently afterward, as a beatiful land in which beer flows in amber currents next to a golden pasture, where virgins lie naked with gentle smiles upon their calm, inviting faces; but more precisely, a Shangri-La rite of passage into adulthood which involves rampant consumption of alcoholic beverages, flagrant and promiscuous sexual behavior, and a general and fundamental disregard for any form of responsibility by its habitants.
Thank you sir, may I have another?

France
1) A Western European nation. Located slightly beneath Britain, in most or all senses.
2) Produces nice wine.
3) Produces nice cheese.
4) Produces shedloads of nuclear weapons, which are happily tested on small Pacific atolls home to endangered species of fish and pygmies.
5) The number one source of irritation for the rest of Europe. This manages to go unnoticed by many Americans, who assume the continent is a single amorphous blob.
6) Also the number one source of contention for the United States, having replaced the Soviet Union.
7) Has an annoying accent.
8) Dislikes British beef. This, as theory and experiment have shown, is due to France's argumentative and overly vegetarian wussiness and has nothing whatsoever to do with life-threatening brain disease.
9) Dislikes Germany, for invading it repeatedly and being German.
10) Dislikes Britain for constant warfare, political disagreement and out of habit.
11) Dislikes the United States for its competition in the 'irritating accents' league table and also for having more nuclear weapons and cheese than France.
12) Dislikes.... well, most things, actually.
13) Is a thoroughly splendid country.
14) Is filled with thoroughly un-splendid French people.
"Oh hell. France has blocked the channel tunnel again."

Culture
The totality of communication practices and systems of meaning; a whole way of life of a people; the social production and reproduction of sense, meaning and consciousness. Culture does not express the way of life of a people, it actively shapes up that way of life.
EVERYTHING IS CULTURE

Senior
By far, probably one of the best year out of all four.
Pretty exciting, everyone wants to be you, full of great
memories

automagically
adv. Something that happens automatically, but that also has some mysterious, "magical" element to it. "Smart" appliances, features, etc. that do intelligent things with less help than you might expect.
I installed Windows, and it screwed up my system automagically!

jfgi
Just Fucking Google it. You say it when somebody asks a stupid question.
Dude #1: hey dude, what does JFGI mean?
Dude #2: Just Fucking Google it yo.
Dude #1: I tried but i couldn't find anything.
Dude #2: JUST FUCKING GOOGLE IT!
Dude #1: bro. i already tried that. don't be mean.
Dude #2: bro, your an idiot.

Movember

The month climaxes with participants comparing and appeciating each others mostaches in a manly, non gay way.
