7 Updates on Worthless Emo

June 26, 2012 in 20 Things About Me, Personal, Rants, Wordsmoker

 

1.) I have been recruiting an army of (Hot) Non Profit workers. We like to go skinny dipping and talk about the unstoppable turquoise sexuality.

2.) I’ve started going to a cruisy gym for low income humans. The thought of remembering really sort of sickens me at this point, in long term memory, and muscle memory alike; I like to do my cruisy workout with my eyes closed. It is nice and refreshing to discover the value of bodies all over again (especially if you were a dumbfuck, like me, last time you were in shape).

Hurray for introverts. Read the rest of this entry →

20 Things About Me – Chillbear Latrigue (In Vino Veritas Edition)

June 12, 2012 in 20 Things About Me

1. I know better men than myself. I hope that everyone can say that.

2. Recently, I’ve realized what it would take to push me over the edge—whatever that means.

3. Greyson Stone told me that all anger is derived from fear. I think about that all of the time now.

4. I started out tonight drinking cheap wine and then moved onto cheaper wine. (Hence the parenthetical phrase in the title.)

5. My father encouraged me to study Latin in college. I learned enough to know that the V’s in “In Vino Veritas” are pronounced like W’s. My pronunciation of that phrase is deadly accurate. Read the rest of this entry →

20 Questions: Transcript of the Hoodrow Wilson Interview

April 27, 2011 in 20 Things About Me

James Lipton Clone: “Good evening.  I’m a robotic clone of James Lipton, so it would be appropriate for you to read my voice as slightly metallic and completely soulless.  I’m here tonight with new Wordsmoker contributor, Hoodrow Wilson.  I will be asking him 20 questions, not including follow-ups and clarifications, in the attempt to answer this one, singular over-arching question: Who is Hoodrow Wilson?”

Hoodrow Wilson: “Is that the first question?”

JLC: “No, it is not, but if you’re ready to begin, I can go ahead and ask the first question.”

HW: “Shoot.”

JLC: “One: Who is Hoodrow Wilson?” Read the rest of this entry →

20 Things About Me – RaggedyHannah

April 4, 2011 in 20 Things About Me

1. The day I turned twenty-one, I woke up in Amarillo, TX and went to bed in Taos, NM. Jerry Garcia died that day, and my favorite dog got slammed in the face by my un-boxed birthday cake in an accelerating minivan.

2. At the field hockey end-of-season awards dinner of my junior year in high school, I heard the name of every varsity player called at least once before I heard mine. Two hours into this humiliating experience, disappointed that my father had taken time out of his day, sensing ants in the pants of everyone around me, the final award was called for me: Unsung Hero. They made me a metaphor for myself as I helped close the ceremony to the sound of two hands clapping.

Less than 20 Things About Me – Because Sexus, Plexus and Nexus

March 30, 2011 in 20 Things About Me

1. I have come here for a long time, under several different pseudonyms.

2. Nevertheless, I go by fewer names than these folks: Elric of Melniboné, Satan, Sean Combs.

3. I have never put together a “20 Things About Me” list, partially because I feel strongly that there are not twenty interesting things to say about me.

4. I often use my insecurity as a subject for humor, but I constantly worry that people despise that kind of humor. Read the rest of this entry →

20 Things About Me – Miss Linda

February 16, 2011 in 20 Things About Me

1. I had a six-cup-a-day coffee habit and quit, cold turkey, about three years ago. I haven’t had a drop since. That doesn’t mean I don’t want a perfectly pressed cup of coffee made from freshly roasted Stumptown beans, but I can’t trust myself with it yet.

2. I’m a New Yorker, a downtown girl. I can go for months without ever traveling above 14th Street.

3. I smize really well. Thank you, Tyra.

Delusions Of Grammar (Or Twenty Things About Me)

February 9, 2011 in 20 Things About Me

1. I am an identical twin.  You may now ask me if we have that twin psychic communication.  Everybody does.

2. Shhh.  We’re discussing whether or not we should tell you.

3. I’m writing a book.  It’s got vampires.  I’m six chapters in and I think it’s pretty cool.  A very small number of people have been allowed to read what I’ve written so far. I’m projecting twelve chapters, so…halfway done?  Yay?

20 Things About Me – Fuldis Closure

January 26, 2011 in 20 Things About Me

1. Recently I was repeating the dumbest thing in my head for like two hours at home… oh, it was something not very funny someone said on Facebook.

2. When that happened, it was the closest I’ve ever come to understanding nihilism.

3. But then I remembered that I was going to reread One Hundred Years of Solitude, and that I have two trips coming up, and how much I love airports.

4. I wish city bars were like airport bars, or that I felt the same in them as I feel in airport bars.

20 Things About Me – Jamaica007

January 24, 2011 in 20 Things About Me

1. Eventually, you’ll figure it out. If you aren’t sure to what I’m referring, well, you will have to do something about that, won’t you?

2. Sometimes things are in plain sight, but often we’re overlooking the obvious hoping for something greater. What sort of question would you ask when trying to get to know someone? Check your lists, for the answer is there. You just have to ask the right question. Read the rest of this entry →
