So … I’m asking you - if you could give your high school self advice upon graduation, what would it be?

It’s okay if you’re a virgin. That’s about the only thing I would’ve been interested in hearing.

I only skimmed this post so I don’t totally get the context, but I don’t think any is necessary. I LOL’d the first three times I watched it.

Related: ‘I am aware of all internet traditions’ seems like something I’d deliriously write in a cover letter at 4 am.

Daily dose of M.I.A. style. (No, that wasn’t just a one-time-me-being-obnoxious situation. It’ll probably be about three times.)

Unhelpful emails from my mother (a continuing series).

From my inbox this morning:

http://philanthropynw.org/job-bank/Default.htm

[Redacted] was saying at lunch that this is the place for all NW jobs, and, in fact, here’s your dream Gates Foundation job.  You just need a little more experience.

L., M.

She’s just trying to be nice and that’s rare for her so I don’t want to discourage it, but I have a strong desire to respond with: THANKS FOR YOUR FUCKING HELP BITCH, BUT I’M ACTUALLY ALL SET ON THE FINDING-JOBS-FOR-WHICH-I-AM-HOPELESSLY-UNDERQUALIFIED FRONT.

She also recently sent me a link for a website that offers two week internships in India for the bargain price of $4,000. Airfare not included.

» Say it ain't so! M.I.A. reportedly retiring.

If she’s pulling this shit cause she just got engaged…well then I never really liked her anyway. (Lie.)
