“You know, my father and my brother were very much performers. They play guitar, sing, they’re very, very confident guys. I was shy. I was painfully shy, until fifth grade when I transferred to another school and befriended the class clown. And one day he was sick and I kinda stepped in for the class clown and I said wow, this is exciting, I’m a little bit nervous.”

Pendulum - The Vulture

I don’t care what people say about Ben Mount, he pumps you up like crazy at their shows. Their shows would not be the same without him.

“Harrison Ford. I steal all the best stuff from him....I love watch Harrison Ford get beat up. He was the guy who gets beaten and smacked around and still keeps going. I’ve channelled that more than once.”

The Thinking Woman’s Guide to Fifty Shades of Grey

This is the most entertaining thing I’ve ever read about Fifty Shades of Grey, certainly far more entertaining than the short bit of the book itself that I managed to read before I turned my Kindle off and threw it across the room. My favorite lines: 

“That dry, skittering sound you heard is your fallopian tubes curling like party ribbon.”

“A passage where we find out what Anastasia Steele looks like via girl-frowning-at-her-appearance-in-a-mirror exposition should be punishment for vehicular manslaughter in some states.”

“When Christian Grey “rips through” Anastasia’s virginity, she actually says “Argh!” like Jon finding out that Garfield has once again shredded the curtains.”

“I get that this is supposed to be BDSM Lite for people with Aztec-pattern Kindle Fire covers …”

“I’ve seen better storytelling in an evening news segment about a raccoon who got a peanut butter jar stuck on his head in a Wendy’s parking lot.”
