Welcome to the best blog of the year. Why?
Because J.K. Rowling has affirmed the premise that I belong in
Gryffindor. Perhaps not personally, but
through the site Pottermore.com, which despite Nicole’s bragging about, I
started, since I told her about it. Just kidding. Sort of. (Also I'm aware that the title isn't an accurate portrayal of how sorting works [it's not genetic (though I think the Weasleys make a strong case against this- I would've put Percy in Doucherdor) and you can't arbitrarily combine houses, such as "Huffledor", which I put Devin in because he has all the good traits of a Gryffindor but is really friendly/loyal, too, and despite what y'all say, I find Hufflepuff kind of demeaning.].). (<---- Surprise ellipses!)

I am in Gryffindor and (much to his chagrin) Devin is in Huffledor. And we will have Gryffinhuffledor babies.

Another typical week, only with more junk food.
| Evidence that Fox News has negative IQ |
“On
an otherwise regular Sunday evening broadcast in 2011, Fox News reported that Sarah Palin had not decided if she would run
for president in 2012. As is common, a
picture of the politician accompanied the report… only it wasn’t Sarah
Palin. The network mistakenly used a
picture of Tina Fey mocking Palin in a 2008 Saturday
Night Live skit.”
Thus
began the four page explanatory feature article I wrote that was due
yesterday. I thought that was a humorous
anecdote about how Fox News is dumb, and the point of my article was that the
line between entertainment and news has been blurred (passive voice because of
the obscure object that is obscuring the line) over the years with SNL’s “Weekend Update” and Jon Stewart’s
The Daily Show. You know you want to read it. Just kidding.
But just hear the title: “Is the quality of news ‘Palin’?” Hahaha… yay
me!
