An eclectic sampling of whatever is on my mind.
Hint hint
There’s this cute girl at the starbucks on campus that I’ve been admiring from afar/maybe creeping for a while this semester. She’s got a Tegan & Sara haircut (hey homegirl) and some fly purple glasses. Lately I’ve been wanting to get up the courage to talk with her, but normally can only manage a smile. Crippling shyness and all.
BUT TODAY. Today she started a convsersation about the T&S scarf I was wearing and the concert they played in town some months back. She then announced the bombshell: coffee shop girl got to MEET Tegan and Sara after the show. So lucky. I’m happy for her and incredibly jealous at the same time..
Now, please excuse me while I feel happy and giddy like a little girl. The coffee shop crush talked to me.
i like that there is a tumblr of hot girls w/ glasses b/c i wear glasses :)
reblogged a photo from it tonight
Girls in glasses: all of my unnnnnf

I was recently doing some stand up at a club. After one of my sets, I walked into the bar where a friend of mine who is a comic and also happens to be a tall and pretty lady was standing with a few other people. They were having an animated discussion.
The guy at the bar – whom I had never met before – looked at me and saw my glasses, my ill fitting clothes, my bad posture, and I guess he saw in me a kindred spirit.
“Here,” he said, “this guy will get it. Dude, don’t you think hot girls have it easiest in the world?”
I answered without thinking. My words vomited up out of me.
“No, not at all,” I said. “Being a hot girl seems awful.”
He laughed.
“No, I’m not kidding,” I said. “Why does it suck to look like you and me? Because hot girls won’t talk to us when we’re dumb teenagers… I’d rather have that then spend my whole life with guys yelling shit at me when I walk down the street. I’d rather be lonely for a few years early on then spend every day getting creeped out by gross dudes staring at my chest when I’m just trying to go to the supermarket to buy some fucking vegetables.”
“Yeah,” he said, “but they get whatever they want all the time.”
“Do they?” I asked. “I’m sure they get into clubs I can’t get into, or get drinks served to them without waiting as long as I have to. But they also get judged for wearing the clothes they wear. Or get pressured for not putting out. Or have to worry constantly, at least a little in the back of their mind, about getting raped.”
The guy just stared at me.
“I don’t know dude,” I said. “Hot girls don’t have it easy.”
My friend who is tall and pretty looked at me and smirked and said, “Good answer.” And we walked away together.
Hot girls don’t have it easy. They don’t have it easy for all those reasons I told that guy, and so many more. But most of all, they don’t have it easy because dummies like that guy look at them and see them as “hot girls” instead of seeing them as “three dimensional human beings.”
And that’s what drives me nuts about “the good guys”.
“I’m a good guy, why don’t hot chicks like me?” Are you really a good guy when you say shit like “hot chicks”?
“I’m a nice guy, girls don’t pay any attention to me.” Are you sure you’re a nice guy? Because if your main concern is getting girls to pay attention to you for how nice you are, it sounds to me like maybe you’re not actually nice and you’re presenting yourself as nice to trick a girl you crave into thinking you’re nice. And that’s not very nice.

man, people can tell 6 second stories like nobody’s business in 2014
She works at a local haunted house almost every October, and workers are heckled or assaulted sometimes. Earlier tonight she called me, extremely upset because some big guy got drunk and charged at her. The asshole broke her glasses and bruised her pretty face, all because he was drunk and wanted to be a tough guy. His girlfriend was there and did nothing to stop the fighting while a fully grown man beat on a girl.
Security came running when she started calling for help, but of course the man denied it and his girlfriend denied it too. So security says they can’t do anything. That’s just bullshit. The man should have been detained and the cops called. You just can’t get drunk in public, attack someone at work, and get away with it.
I’m so fucking pissed because of what she went through tonight.
i think freckles, stretch marks, tattoos, bruises, birthmarks and scars are probably the coolest thing, you started with almost a blank canvas and look at u now, all this evidence that you’ve lived and the sun has shone on you and you’ve grown and maybe tripped up a few times and liked an image so much u made it a permanent part of u, beautiful.
That’s one of the most uplifting things I’ve read
a girl should always carry tampons because they can be used as a ward against immature boys
simply present one and watch the look of horror on his face as he is forced backwards
build a wall of tampons and no boy can cross
they will not summon the courage to breach the cotton wall
girl power
