ThisSlumgullionIsSoVapid Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 I'm frequenting this site too many times with not enough updates. Figured I'd make some random thread for non-sense while we wait. Thought someone might get a chuckle out of this DustSNK, violet. and rising_star 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThisSlumgullionIsSoVapid Posted January 23, 2012 Author Share Posted January 23, 2012 On another tangent, has anyone listened to last weeks 'This American Life'? (The episode is Kid Politics). If not, I highly suggest listening to it. The first 1/3 where the kids have to role play as Reagan was pretty interesting/disturbing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sciencegirl Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Yes... but it was a repeat first aired awhile ago.. (they do that sometimes)... the Reagan library one is a classic episode. For some reason, the This American Life episodes that feature children are the most fascinating.. I still get chills thinking about the episode with the two transgender children "Somewhere Out There" - amazing radio. I'm surprised Ira Glass hasn't gotten a MacArthur.

She's moving to Austin for a killer job. Woah. I'm really sorry to hear that. That makes things 100x heavier.

sociologyplease Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Ugh, I'm sorry about the UT Austin rejection, Supernovasky. UCSB, please call me! I'll be available all night and day to answer your call! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
socihealth Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 I think a rejection which meant a break up would make me crumble. Im sorry to hear that. My SO and I are distance right now but I am not sure how things will shake out after admissions decisions go out. Thanks for posting some fun things guys! Its good to try to get our minds off of apps for a few minutes now and then. Im actually about to turn on some Seinfeld re-runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
