The Internet According to Buffy

noreply@blogger.com (nicole) — Sat, 13 Mar 2010 21:35:00 +0000

Jenny Calendar: Honestly, what is it about them that bothers you so much?

Giles: The smell.

Jenny Calendar: Computers don't smell, Rupert.

Giles: I know. Smell is the most powerful trigger to the memory there is. A certain flower, or a-a whiff of smoke can bring up experiences long forgotten. Books smell musty and-and-and rich. The knowledge gained from a computer is a - it, uh, it has no-no texture, no-no context. It's-it's there and then it's gone. If it's to last, then-then the getting of knowledge should be, uh, tangible.

Favorite New York Quotes, Volume XV

Q. What makes someone a New Yorker?
A. When you complain about living here on a regular basis, but can't imagine living anywhere else.

The Internet

I like how when you google image search "bummer times," a delicious slice of pizza pops up on the screen from someone's food blog. The internet, how I love you.

New Year

I'm a bit more optimistic than that, but if I had it my way it'd be a little bit more like this:

2009 in Movies

noreply@blogger.com (nicole) — Thu, 31 Dec 2009 03:15:00 +0000

The movies I can remember seeing in the theater in 2009 in order from best to worst:

1. Precious
2. Jennifer's Body
3. The Hangover
4. Up in the Air
5. New Moon (or Twilight 2 as my ticket stub read)
6. 17 Again
7. District 9
8. Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince
9. An Education
10. Post Grad
11. Obsessed

Considering that I walked out of Precious with the most visceral of emotions clouding my entire being and a need for several stiff drinks, it is easily the best movie of the year. I might have put Jennifer's Body as number one, but I saw it post-cocktails and didn't feel the need for another one afterward. 17 Again was way better than New Moon but Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner's abs surpass Zac Efron and Matthew Perry in the babe department so New Moon takes it. (Could I be any more on the money?) I also thought An Education was the worst movie of 2009 but then I remembered how painful Post Grad was to sit through. Lastly, Obsessed was terrible on every level imaginable but its most redeeming quality, the winking blue smiley face sent via email, also made it a contender for the number one spot.

Mystery & Beauty

Favorite New York Quotes, Volume XIV

"The city seen from the Queensboro Bridge is always the city seen for the first time, in its first wild promise of all the mystery and the beauty in the world." - F. Scott Fitzgerald in The Great Gatsby

The (approximate) duration of all the phone calls I was on today. What is that? 4 hours and 20 minutes? I can't imagine that is good for the brain.

YES! The producers of The Hills are way smarter than I ever could have imagined. Kristin is obviously the more interesting character. Who wants to watch a self-righteous fashion student? No thanks. Thank you MTV!
