Okay next thing:

A while ago I thought it would be a good idea to interview 'Garlic Bread Memes'. Old people, memes (pronounced 'meh-meys') are a special kind of joke on the internet. Like everything on the internet, memes are a massive waste of time. It's pretty inane, but they made me promise I'd send them a link. Here's to experimental journalism.

Me: Why garlic bread?"
Garlic Bread Memes: Why not? Best bread around

In an increasingly permissive society, what's it like holding onto the ideal of the objective goodness of GB?
I mean, garlic bread is the best bread that exists. People can think what they want about the other breads but we know ours is best

Interesting. Why do you use memes to communicate the goodness of GB?
Garlic bread is funny, so are memes, it's just a good combo and we find it funny

Cool. Are the variants of garlic bread (burnt, cheesy etc) ever improvements, or is GB best in its purest form?
All garlic bread is the best regardless of variety

Does that allow for personal preference between variants?
Yes, but as long as it's garlicky and bready it is the best

So is it possible to produce bad garlic bread?
Maybe burnt garlic bread. Maybe. Other than that no

I see

How is GB love express itself (sic) in the political sphere?
We have no involvement preference or involvement in politics

*****END OF INTERVIEW*******

I'm getting really super into karaoke these days. I used to go just for the singing, but now I'm starting to really love watching other people perform. I wrote a meaningful poem about karaoke, and Housemate Dave gave it a very sincere ten out of ten.

/POEM

Sometime last semester
At Bar One karaoke on a Thursday night
A girl stood up and sang 'Say My Name'

Pitch perfect
Flawlessly timed
I was singing along
when her eyes
met mine

I don't even know watch she's called

/END POEM

I didn't go to karaoke last week because I was working on my interim report. My project's all about using computer models to simulate the lifetime trajectory of drinkers. Turns out computers are not yet clever enough to simulate the terrible decisions humans make. My systems engineering interim report was basically a third year psychology essay.

I spent most of last week in the library reading and writing about motives for alcohol consumption, and when I got home in the evening I would feel weirdly motivated to drink. My alcohol project friends say that it's happening to them to. spooky

Holidays soon go home soon good
