hannahrorlove gave me two books, A History of the World in Six Glasses and On Bullshit. Thank you, Hannah! Haven't finished the first but I liked the above quote a lot. :D I've finished the second and thought it was marvelous. It helped clarify what makes me angry about certain people, why I have no respect for them at all. Should do a whole post about that.
- Has anyone done an awesomely cheese-tastic post-S5 House/Cuddy fanvid to Hoobastank's "The Reason" yet? The song seems kind of tailor-made for it, particularly if you went the "purposefully badvid" route, like the SGA McShep vid to "Jolene."
I found a reason for meeeeeeeee
To change who I used to beeeeeeeee
A reason to start over newwwwwwww
And the reason is you
ETA: On YouTube, I found five House/Cameron vids to the song, one House/Chase, and one House/Cuddy, but it's from February.
- There was going to be a third bullet point here, but I've forgotten it.
PS. I just thought of the phrase "screaming into an empty sea." Eh? Wouldn't an empty sea be the saddest thing ever?

Date: 2009-07-20 06:35 pm (UTC)That song, though? I used to hear it, like, five times a day -- and I didn't like it much to start with. Something about the whiny sound of the vocals, I think. Gah.
But that's just me.

That's your quote in Greek --just in case you wondered what the original looked like. ;P
On Bullshit sounds intriguing.
