In the holiday spirit
Wife: This was the worst idea ever. Own it.
Husband: It's not.
Wife: There's a reason why we haven't checked bags in the last 4 years.
Husband: Honestly, I would rather just drive home right now. I don't want to spend time with YOUR family. Why can't I spend Christmas with MY family?
Baby: (blubbering incoherent words)
Husband: Relax!

Why The Salvation Army Doesn’t Deserve Your Money →
It’s that time of year again, the Salvation Army folks have come out with their buckets and bells, but at the holiday season especially, it’s important to remember that you shouldn’t donate to The Salvation Army.
The sad truth. Read on.

cold is a relative concept
“It’s really warm today!”
That was my first thought as I stepped outside for the first time all weekend after being cooped up with my final projects.
It was 50°F.
Not what I would usually call warm, having grown up to be spoiled by the perfect weather of the SF Bay, but after a week of sub-freezing temperatures, (and snow on Monday morning! Apparently it’s snowing right this second too if...

Dear girl that used Bauhaus 93 as a body typeface...
Herbert Bayer would not be pleased. In fact, he is probably rolling over in his grave right about now. Also, all of your past professors here would hang their heads in complete and utter shame if they knew of this major design school faux pas.
What have you been doing? The basis of everything we have been learning has gone completely over your head.
Get out. You don’t belong here.

New "Sagmeister, Inc." Website →
Love Stefan Sagmeister. His new site does not disappoint.
Though it does make me feel a bit dirty… Studio voyeurism.
Don’t worry, nothing awful (yet), just a live webcam of his New York studio.
Though, I guess we can’t guarantee he won’t whip out the razor blades for art again. Search “Stefan Sagmeister AIGA poster” and read up about it if you don’t...

The Sound of Tron Legacy
Excellent short documentary on the sound design of Tron Legacy with lots of great on-set footage. I sincerely hope this movie is on the same level as Olivia Wilde.

It's only noon and today is already a fantastic...
I somehow manage to only ever oversleep on Mondays and Fridays. Which is terrible because I have the same class on Mondays and Fridays. Lecture and recitation.
Said recitation is one of my favorites, since our recitation leader is a fellow Californian who sometimes plays KIIS FM-esque Pandora radio stations during discussions and also buys us Murray’s Bagels on important days. Like today!...

Having too much to do results too often in being busy doing nothing.

I know I might need a little bit of magic to get through the next two weeks, intact. Good luck on finals, everyone! Keep things in perspective. Take a break. I love you.

– Oh, you know. Just another discussion in my History of Photography class. My professor looks like Edna Mode and she says weird stuff like this.
In case you were wondering, it’s exactly as she described. No more, no less.
