Junkyard, bro. Dig it.

Time for my favorite part! JUNKYARD!!!!

1 - "Everybody wants prosthetic foreheads on their real heads."
-They Might Be Giants (We want a Rock)

I was listening to one of the greatest bands of all time earlier today--They Might be Giants. Their song "We Want a Rock" states that everybody wants prosthetic foreheads to wear on their real heads, which is when it hit me--if anyone on this Earth is more in tune with me than the entire group of They Might be Giants, then I haven't met them yet. This is awesome for the sake of being awesome, so pay some respekts.


2 - "Man, those some NUTTY-ASS brownies, dude!"
-Me, talkin' to Lucas-

After my 9am class that I have with Lucas on Friday, we ended up talking for a lot longer than is normal and eventually, the conversation began going in strange directions as it is bound to when either one of us is talking. I don't even properly remember how it came to be that I decided this was an appropriate response to whatever it was Lucas said, but damn if it didn't make me laugh.

3 - "How about the power to kill a yak from 200 yards away? With Mind Bullets? That's telekinesis, Kyle. How about the power to move you?"
-Tenacious D (Wonderboy)-

Lucas and I also talked about Tenacious D, where I brought up this, one of my favorite parts of any Tenacious D song. The quote doesn't do it justice. Go listen to it--I dropped the song name and everything. Fuckin' rock out to some Tenacious D. Now.

4 - "You can mine my chandeliers if you want. This isn't my real world, so I don't care what happens to it."
-Nick Bruce, aka Shanky-

I have picked up Minecraft. If you like games, and you haven't played Minecraft, then you should play it. Anyway, Nick and I managed to get the server application running so that we can host Minecraft on our computers and we can then play in the same world online. Nick has managed to mine enough diamond to make four giant diamond chandeliers in the castle he built, and if you've played Minecraft, then you know that having enough diamond for four upside-down pyramids of diamond blocks in your castle means you have a shit ton of diamond.

5 - "I've decided to only eat what I FUCK! That was the worst cheese danish I've ever."
-Jhonen Vasquez-

He twittered this one day, which reaffirmed my belief in Twitter. If you don't know him by name, he made Invader Zim, and Johnny the Homicidal Maniac and for a time in my life, I probably worshiped the man. I think I will plan on adopting his life model sometime in the near future.
