So I’ve started to collect vinyl records. So far here’s what I got:

I really want to get these, but they’re way expensive:
Death Cab for Cutie - Transatlanticism ($157 on amazon)
Get Up Kids - Something to Write Home About
Jimmy Eat World - Clarity
Thursday - Full Collapse ($98 on amazon)
Doucheville, USA
So I was bored tonight and decided to go to the Cotton District—one of the breeding grounds of frat douches. I had a pretty decent time until I had to go to the bathroom. I waited in line for a while, when this frat douche cut in front of me to hit on some girl. When the girl came out of the bathroom, she stood in the doorway talking to Frat Douche… holding up the bathroom line. I went in… and then it got rowdy. After explaining to the girl that I was in line behind her, she let me close the door and do my business. Meanwhile, Frat Douche was all like “SOME FUCKIN’ CHINESE DUDE CUT IN FRONT OF ME! WHAT THE HELL IS A MOTHERFUCKIN’ CHINK DOING HERE ANYWAY?!”
I can’t wait to get out of the south.
Hulk Smash!
I saw the new Incredible Hulk today. Aside from the Neanderthal who kept making comments during the film, it was pretty good. Edward Norton’s films never fail to impress me… and Liv Tyler was way better in this than The Strangers (which sucked). The Hulk is kind of a lame superhero… but his struggle to lead a normal life is his ultimate strength. For me, that outweighed the brutish fight scenes.
Another movie that I’ve recently watched is Control… which is about Ian Curtis, the singer from Joy Division. Fantastic movie, even in black and white.
