Gabriel the Opinionistic's blog Tri-Daily Whatnot 

PppffffftHAHahahaha I splutter through my orange juice at approximately 10:13 on a Saturday morning, listening to my favorite radio show. Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me is head-over-heels funny!

Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me is funny to me because I keep up with current events, they make lots of references to events like the Winter Olympics. To enjoy Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me you also need a (to say it frankly) tiny bit more complex style of humor. If your type of comedy is people slipping on ice and falling into puddles than go watch AFV or some vines. To like Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me you need to be able to sit through some boring parts to get through to the gold. Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me is about the funniest news stories of the week, whether they got good coverage or not. For the start of every episode they give a quote to some fan who called in who must decode who said it. The also pull in an expert on something/anything for every episode to play “Not My Job” a game where they must answer questions about very different things. For example this week the man who wrote the two volume book about Elvis Presley had to answer questions about K-pop, the Korean pop music that became popular with GANGNAM STYLE.. . You also learn some useless facts about anything I learned that some fans can recognize disguised K pop artists by their arms, and k-pop artists can’t eat or drink after 7:00 pm lest they get fat (or hydrated I’d imagine).

Anyway, Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me is on KUT at 10:00am every Saturday. It’s a lot more funny than I made it sound… trust me. So try it. Wait Wait will make you wet your pants– in a good way

 Fear, I used to think it was just a chemical response to outer stimuli that the mind senses to be dangerous, a rustling in the trees, a shadow masking too much for its own good. Silly stupid Jeff how idiotic I was THE FEAR ARE REAL, REALLY REAL. Not just a…

“Silly stupid Jeffery Evil wretch you are”

it escapes my mouth I turn. no one is there “good no one heard, good ” then it hit me “no one knows I’m here, no one knows I’m here”. I fall down crying out for the pain in my side. something stood beside me-my fear…. everyone had one

no one else has ever seen another ones fear, they never show up when anyone else is around.

Your true fear… “you can never know what it is until you see it, and then you realize it could have never been anything else.”

my fear stood beside me silent, all of the fear are silent. that is something that The Fear taught us, the difference between themselves and terror (God forbid that might be a race too), terror is universal a monster, a charging yak, drowning on a boat, loud, boisterous, vying for attention. But Fear that is different, personal, something you have to develop silent prowling. Fear is your terror, everyone would be scared in a sinking boat but if that is your Fear you would be numb, Fearful, unable to move, in a word   dead. I turned……

should I keep going or drop it, or maybe change something in the next excerpt?

I find myself very proud of  that wordplay up there. Thor was an amazing movie with

(1)humor

(2) plot twists

(3) monsters

(4) a sensible story line

(5)  most of all Tom Hiddleston.

snore 2:the dark world

(1) not enough humor (there was actually a lot but not spaced out)

(2) no monsters other than one weird zombie thing

(3) terrible story line

(4)TOO MUCH JANE FOSTER!!!

on a brighter note

(5) Tom Hiddleston

Snore was actually an ok movie, but I had heard amazing things about it and was severely disappointed at the sorry lack of story, depth, and monsters beating one another up.

I preferred this much more than the movie as a matter of fact

enjoy

 

“The flag” means about a billion things worldwide. I’m sure when you think “the flag” you thought of red white and blue if you’re my classmate, or an Australian, or a Brit, or a Norwegian, but you could have thought of the Italian flag, or the French or your favorite basketball teams flag faithfully swinging off your dads car. The essence of a flag is its power to communicate a statement whether it is (nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows.. ) “cough, sorry” whether it is a statement of patriotism or simply “GO HORNS GO!” a flag gives a person personality. flags come in all shapes, sizes, colors, universal meanings, and course countries.

What is the most recently discovered cryptid. On a related note, what is a cryptid?

Write your answer in comments I dare you!

Real Steel, movies, and time-space reality itself are the topics of today’s discussion. Have you ever wondered if whatever was just done in your big budget blockbusters was possible, so have I. recently I watched the movie Real Steel, and it got me thinking, would it be possible by 2016 to have giant gory robots replacing giant gory men boxing? Would boxing become the favorite sport of many, and in the time it takes a robot to punch through a piece of scrap win over the children that boxing was too awful for prior. Also even if it was in the budget and the know how World Robot Boxing might not even be feasible as a sport. Zeus, the giant amazing death bot world champ would have already tanked the sport. There would be no WRB if no one even has a chance against Zeus, there would be no money in it. So in conclusion, movies are good and at least they abide by the 1st and last Gabe’s law of movie physics “there are no physics in movies”

Celebration West Ridge was so fun! I got my hair dyed and I fell over in the hamster ball. We popped balloons with darts. Celebration West Ridge (for those of you who are boring) is an annual event in which students and faculty may be as rowdy and sugar high as their heart desires.  I had a great time with my neon green, red, and black hair. At the very least half of West Ridge probably had a simultaneous sugar crash twords 5:00 last night. My friend Kyle pointed out about halfway through CWR that we would have been in about free period by then. It was odd with the high sugar levels ad the short classes, which really put off my internal clock. Good thing I have the weekend to put it right! Except I just woke up at 6:00 AM to run a five k (I got my PR BTW) and afterward a soccer game so signing off at 2:33 PM goodnight Austin!!! your favorite afro’d middle schooler

In my opinion unicorns are dangerous and are to be hunted, but no one asked me.

In my opinion they shouldn’t waste time with “fabulizing” the names of flowertacular scented air freshener and just make one that smells like cooking onions, but no one asked me.

In my opinion there should be a button on every computer titled “no not in the URL box I meant to Google it”, but no one asked me.

In my opinion “I’m right you’re wrong be quiet”, but no one asked me.

In my opinion “I’m right you’re wrong be quiet” should be painted on all government buildings in Washington , but no one asked me.

In my opinion carbonated meat should be a thing, but no one asked me.

In my opinion the humble bicycle needs a second function, but no one asked me.

In my opinion we should have put more effort into cars befor releaseing them when hey were first invented so that if we were to use flying cars now we wouldn’t need to tear down ALL of the roads and ALL of the street signs, but no one asked me.

 

This is a prepositional poem that we did for a class project.

 On the hill

Now in the air

Through the clouds

Amidst the flame

To the flash of pearly white spires

Down the mountain they blaze

Toward the red

Strait at the black

Under the stomach

Out the jaws

The mighty drakes clash
