My sister wants me to sell these items on eBay: Sailormoon Moon Rod, Moon Wand, and the moon locket. And SM stationary. All in very good condition. Do people even want this stuff?

Because I've been reading too much ONTD lately...



One has a white outline and the other has a black outline. Credit or no credit, matters not to me!



And as a suggestion by xeresrazor, a thrillol version:


Also see my classic Don't Give A Damn icon.

What kind of music would you recommend for a World Domination playlist? Kind of something like a movie soundtrack that chronicles a nobody working hard to become a somebody.

Currently I have (in no particular order):

• Offspring - Pretty Fly (For A White Guy)


• Survivor - Eye of the Tiger


• Guns N' Roses - Welcome to the Jungle


• Queen - Another One Bites The Dust


• Queen - We Will Rock You


• Europe - The Final Countdown


• Star Wars Imperial March Theme


• Queen - We Are The Champions

WTF, I think I'm gonna end up with every jock jam on this playlist!

I'm hoping to get this to about 15-20 tracks--normally my playlists have certain themes and they are 60-100 songs.

Holla, friends list! I am making a summer playlist and I need some recommendations. What songs remind you of summer? The kind of songs that got a lot of airplay when you were younger, or what you would be playing in your pseudo convertible with the top down? It can be fantastic craptastic addictive pop.

Examples:
Avril Lavigne - Girlfriend (Remix) (featuring Lil Mama)
Sisqó - Thong Song
Utada Hikaru - Traveling
Outkast - Hey Ya!
The Spice Girls - Spice Up Your Life
Paris Hilton - Nothing In This World
Next - Too Close (LOLOLOL)

As you can see I am an equal opportunity listener when it comes to music.

Some icons of my fave comic strip, Pearls Before Swine.

I just had the weirdest dream. I dreamt that negroyella's grandfather was on a bus and he was complaining about how buses weren't as good as they used to be. He got off at a stop at a neighborhood side street where there was a small pot hole. A cute little Korean boy about three years old was filling the pot holes with a mixture of sand and water. And then, VERBAL from m-flo was there, watching the kid and having warm fuzzy feelings of when he gets to be a "otochan" (Daddy). This was the first time a Japanese artist has ever made a cameo appearance in one of my dreams. I have been listening to COSMICOLOR, but not THAT much.

Also, I always think that if VERBAL was a dad, he'd make his kid call him "the daitouryou" or something like that.

I used to be friends with this guy from my AiW days. One day, we were at Pentagon City Mall, and he had all of $5 left. He wanted to buy some chocolate. I pointed out the Lindt store to him.

"You can get a bunch of truffles for about $0.30 each."

"I think I'll go to Godiva. Their chocolate is the best." He went into the store and for about $5, got two chocolate truffles. As he consumed his overpriced chocolate, I remember feeling that he dismissed my recommendation because Lindt wasn't as prestigious of a brand compared to Godiva.

I was kind of bored today, so I did a little searching after remembering that Dave had told me that Godiva chocolates were manufactured in Pennsylvania. Originally, the Godiva company created fine Belgian chocolates that were exported to the US back in the mid-60s. Today they are manufactured in Reading, PA. The company was also purchased by the Campbell Soup Company in 1972. They use the same recipes as the Belgian plant, which supplies chocolate to its European shops. Some people argue that just because they use the same recipes, the American factory isn't upholding the same high quality standards as their Belgian counterpart.

Somehow, that takes away the whole romantic idea that you're paying good money for premium Belgian chocolate, doesn't it?

Yesterday, I had a customer ask where he can find a place that sells chocolate. Preferably Godiva. I told him that if he went up Wisconsin Avenue, there was a chocolatier called Leonida's that sells really delicious chocolate. But he decided to go next door to Barnes & Noble to get a box of Godiva instead.

Anyway, give me your other choco recs! One of the best things from working at Union Station was that L'Occitane was next door to Neuhaus. We always got free "damaged" chocolate and we had a mall discount of 15%. I would go next door after the holidays, when the chocolates were 50% off, and used my discount to get 65% off! It was awesome.

I also recently discovered Vosges. Has anyone tried their stuff?

And lastly, Pimp that Snack: Lord Lindor and a Giant Cadbury Egg.

Guilt	What is yours?	Explain yourself
Culinary:	Kettle potato chips	They taste pretty darned good. I can't seem to pass them up.
Literary:	Erotica	It's naughtier than reading romance novels.
Audiovisual:	Reba	Sometimes I catch this show on TV. It's a funny lighthearted series.
Musical:	Disney music	Because, sometimes, you feel like playing "Le Poisson" at work. Especially when it's slow.
Celebrity:	wwtdd.com	"So, basically, if Britney's lawyers loose this, they should be ripped apart by horses. All they need to do is show up in court with three pictures: one of Sean Preston, one of a duck and one that's just the color red. Then ask Kevin to point out his son. You know what, fuck it, give him three chances to pick out his son. He'll still fuck it up. I guarantee he chooses the duck twice."

Okay, being serious now. Who wants to go see Justin Timberlake at the 9:30 Club on August 25th? That's a Friday, so Metro will run late. And yes, tickets are $55. Really expensive but consider how small the venue is (versus say, the Verizon Center). Tickets go on sale this Friday so I think I will buy a ticket if anyone wants to come with.

Oh my god, this is so funny, my belly hurts from laughing

(00:40:53) Sarah: You know what's scary? I just know that if I get a MySpace account, I'd want to make a bunch of layouts that people can use for it, so it'd be one less ugly thing on the internet.
(00:43:05) Diana: stay away!
(00:43:28) Diana: let it stay the international embarrassment that it is

I love asian_beauty 8-)

There's a thread about Asian mothers. Currently, it's at 37 comments.

The Best Things Ever is a good way to waste time. I added "Jeans worn straight from the dryer" to it.

I've gotten things like:
1. Cats being goofy vs. Vampires
2. Guys wearing make-up vs. Building a fort out of couch cushions
3. Masturbation vs. Incongruently wonderful cover songs (this one was a hard one for me, haha)
4. The time Stephen Colbert asked that congressman to name the Ten Commandments and he couldn't vs. Midi chlorians
5. Things that make Hitler funny vs. Raindrops on roses
6. Losing your virginity vs. Curling up with a good book
7. Penny Arcade vs. Guinness
8. Going blind before seeing naked pictures of your own mother vs. The 13 Colonies
9. The time Indiana Jones shot that guy with a sword vs. Quantum mechanics
10. Magic vs. The interwebs while drunk

Currently the top list is:

1. Building something out of nothing
2. The feeling of having completely proven someone wrong
3. Finally peeing after having to hold it for a long time
4. Being fellated while playing video games
5. The time Dick Cheney shot a guy in the face
6. The fact that your mitochondria aren't a part of you - they're just along for the ride.
7. Free will
8. Those fish that glow
9. The brain's ability to rewire itself after an accident
10. The body's ability to heal

Even though I have about half of these tracks, I am looking forward to buying this album. Hopefully it won't cost too much to import it.

The Man With the Smallest Penis in Existence and the Electron Microscope Technician Who Loved Him

(NSFW, obviously.)

Last night when my mom drove me home from work she was saying how I shouldn't rush to catch the bus because this one girl ran to catch her bus and got hit by a car and was killed. She repeated that about 3 times. I'm like, "Yeah, I get it, another bus will come, no rushing."

Today Nancy picked me up from work, and she was telling me how my mom was telling her the exact same thing she told me, only she elaborated it on how it was a Mexican girl that got hit by a car and you better watch out for those Mexicans because they never look before they cross the street. And we have to be careful driving around Langley Park because that's like, Mexican City. (Keeping in mind that we hardly ever drive to Langley Park.)

The funny thing was this conversation was all because my sister was watching Ferris Bueller's Day Off, and it happened right after that scene where Ferris almost got by a car driven by his sister.

Then after that she was watching a nature documentary about wildlife in South America, I think. And every animal they showed, my mom remarked at how good that animal would taste. So she was saying, "Those taste good" to capybara--the largest rodent in the world, crocodiles, snakes, fish, birds, oh yes, there was a lizard but she didn't know if it was a croc or not, but when my sister confirmed it was a lizard, that was also considered "good enough to eat" to even the SNAIL that was being eaten by said lizard! Which, by the way, you can find when you go to the ocean.

And then there was a matter-of-fact discussion about how if you were about to be eaten by a snake, to cut off its tail, that way, the snake loses it grip on you. My sister was wondering where would one get a knife to cut off said snake's tail, and my mom read her mind and said, "That why you need knife all the time."

Also, she revealed that she has a hook-up for venison from a friend who's a friend to a hunter.

Thus conclude's this month's Chronic-WHAT?-les of Azn Mom.
