Life is like a vacation. Once it’s over, you just gotta live with it.
Never judge a book by its cover—unless that cover has half a dozen review excerpts on it.
I found that I can beg for sushi from this guy more effectively by creating a self-fulfilling prophecy instead of asking.
Instead of:
Please can you give me some sushi? Please?!!!
Try:
I won’t ask you for sushi because I know you’ll give one to me anyway. I do, after all, write the Word of the Day…
They feel more obliged to fulfill the prophecy.

Mo-om! Can’t you see I’m doing important stuff?! Facebook is the number one way companies decide whether or not to hire you!
When there’s even only the slightest sliver of light, it’s not dark anymore (duh).
Life is like the lunch line. Just because it’s longer doesn’t mean that what’s at the end is better.
— (Ironically enough, the lunch was actually good today.)
For this weeks word study, I had enamor, amicable, and amiable (the root was amo/ami, meaning love).
- Almost every movie rated G is either boring and/or involves some person being enamored; this is why I think love stories are overrated.
- Almost all PG movies involve two amicable people getting into a socially awkward situation, then going into some form of enamored staring, then kissing.
- PG-13 movies get even worse; the amiable people are in a war, then some stuff explodes, then finally, two amicable people become enamored with each other, then kiss, then someone dies. This is especially true of Terminator movies.
- Didn’t get to stuff rated R or X because a) I didn’t see any (fortunately), and b) there were only 3 sentences. I also didn’t do the “Not Rated” stuff.
For no reason whatsoever, there is now a 1+1=3 Productions toolbar!

Has it ever occurred to you that love spelled backwards is evol?
