Passive-Aggressive Notes has a great collection of the notes left for roommates, neighbors and the occasional ill passerby, intended to deal with situations.

one suggesting a new years resolution:

just a humble suggestion for 2009…

This is exactly why all computers should have webcams. Lyrics after the jump…

[Close Encounters of the Droid Kind]
You must use the force (repeat ad nauseum)

[Raiders of the Lost Wookiee]
Long time ago, far far away (repeat)

Kiss a wookie, kick a droid
Fly the falcon through an asteroid
Till the princess is annoyed
This is spaceships, it’s monsters, it’s Star Wars, we love it!

Come and help me, Obi Wan
X-wing fighter and a blaster gun
Dance with Ewoks, oh what fun!
This is spaceships, it’s monsters, it’s Star Wars, we love it!

[Super Han]
Get in there you big, furry oaf
I couldn’t care less what you smell
I take orders from only me
Maybe you’d like it back in your cell
Your Highness, your worshipfulness, your highness, your worshipfulness

No one cares if you upset a droid
(nobody cares if you upset a droid)
That’s because droids don’t tear your arms out of socket.
(nobody cares)
I suggest a new strategy: let the Wookie win
That’s because nobody cares if you upset a droid.

[ET the DiscoTerrestrial]
Now we listen to Luke whining:
One more season… One more season… One more season… One more season…

I was gonna go to Tashi Station for power converters
Now I guess I’m going nowhere.
It just isn’t fair.

[Jaws: the Wookiee]
Wooookie (repeat)

Someone move this walking carpet (repeat)

Kiss your brother, Kiss your brother (repeat)

Princess Leia
Well I guess you don’t know anything about women.

Who’s your daddy? (repeat)

[Jurassic Darth]
Luke, I’m your father
(That’s not true!)
It is useless to resist
(My hand!)
Come with me my son, We will rule
(I’ll never join you!)
Search your feelings it is true

So you have a twin sister
Who Obi Wan was wise to hide
(Is that Leia?)
If you will not turn
Then perhaps she will
Give in to your hate
You are mine

Long Long Long Time ago… Far Far Far Far Away

Long Long Long Time Ago, Far Far Far Away (repeat)

Kiss a wookie
Kick a droid
Fly the falcon
Through an asteroid
Till the princess is annoyed
(She’s annoyed!)
This is spaceships, it’s monsters, it’s Star Wars, we love it, it’s true

Episode 3
Coming to you
In 2005

So Let’s go
(go go go to the movies)
Stand in line
(buy buy buy me some popcorn)
Cause it’s al-
(please I’d like extra butter)
most the time
(Join the dark side…)
May the Force be with you all

John Williams is the man

what a workout.

you’ve probably seen it, but let’s all turn our attention to the video for “here it goes again” by ok go. before we begin, let’s do a little math: four guys + eight treadmills = one hell of a time.

scoop. [3 outta 4]

Mike — Tue, 15 Aug 2006 05:02:22 +0000

i took in my first woody allen movie tonight, scoop, up by lincoln center. i really had no expectations. i’ve somehow gone my whole life without ever seeing a woody allen flick and really enjoyed myself. i’ve been poking around some of the reviews since i’ve gotten home and it seems that some of it was recycled. didn’t bother me as a first timer. but now i really want to go and see his acclaimed movies.

hugh jackman and scarlett johansson were fine. what really stole the movie was woody allen being…well…woody allen. he played a magician named splendini who loved to toss around compliments like money at a political fundraiser. “you’re such beautiful, beautiful people. a wonderful group. i love you, i mean that from the bottom of my heart, i do. you’re a credit to your race.” the fact that this just kept flowing made it funny. some of the other performances, especially johansson’s, seemed a little stiff in comparison. otherwise, had a lot of fun.

having such a good time at movies like this and little miss sunshine last week, i really don’t find alot of desire to go to the big budget, big studio movies anymore. the trailers before both of these were really interesting [they were all fox searchlight] and now i’m aching to see those as well. its nice when something is done well rather than just having a name or alot of cash behind it.

little miss sunshine. [3.5 outta 4]

Mike — Fri, 11 Aug 2006 05:11:43 +0000

i needed a good laugh last week and found it in little miss sunshine. i didn’t really know what to expect, and don’t really know how to describe it. the movie is at times heart wrenching and then laugh-out-loud funny. the back and forth between the two makes it both original and completely moving.

more importantly, if you’ve ever wondered if a VW bus can run without a working clutch, all your questions will be answered at little miss sunshine.

oh. my. god.
