i hate how concerts and events are pocked full of people holding their stuffty rectangles in the air trying to get crappy footage
and then you have selfie sticks
and stuff like this

people are living life through a camera lens and not enjoying the experience for themselves
it's a weird narcissistic, ego gratification thing.  

just as bad as people that take pictures of every restaurant meal

I'm kinda like this. Like sure, if I'm just riding in a car or sitting somewhere doing nothing, I might use snapchat a lot, or take pictures. But when I'm out doing something, I prefer to just live in the moment. Because chances I'm never actually going to go back and look at the pictures I would take.

They're glasses that record stuff and save it to your Snapchat Memories. Only place youy could get them was at this kiosk somewhere that was selling them for $130. They're going for many, many times that on Ebay because of they're exclusitivity. IDK, they're kinda cool but not worth $130 IMO. I probably wouldn't wear them.

Jeez man, 1200 words? How long are they going to be fighting with cuts? Better throw in some context and exposition.

Yeah, this concerned me. I like the concept but it might be too short for what I need. O_o

So I understood what thugs are but what is a productive african american

don't think i've heard of that species

Ben Carson. He may not be good at politics, but he was a darn good neurosurgeon before he retired. I mean he performed the first and only successful separation of Siamese twins joined at the back of the head. Don't tell me African Americans are never productive members of society.

*intensely look at galaxy 7*

Than why dont we add something that automatically stops charging when your battery reacher 100%
or some kind of safety switch, iduno.

Phones already do that. If they didn't it would not be safe to leave them plugged in overnight.

So it opens to a scene of a two characters fighting. They exchange some words, take some swings at each other, and then one of them trips. It cuts to the next seen, where the same thing happens again, this time with subtle differences, but this time they go farther than did, then one of the obviously says the wrong word. Then it cuts again to the same scene, repeating what already happened, but again with subtle differences. They get even farther than the last two scenes. This time, one of them delivers the fatal blow. Then it cuts to the directors, saying "Cut, that's a wrap! Good work guys." The point is that it wouldn't be obvious that it's a movie shoot until the end where the director talks.

I feel like it's a cool plot twist, but I feel like it might be a boring story. Thoughts?

This is for a writing project for school, has to be around 1200 words.

Anyone else think this is Clinton's last shot at the presidency? If she doesn't win here, she's never getting in.

NBC has Clinton at 209 and Annoying Orange at 187. They still haven't given Annoying Orange Florida yet...

America is currently in labor. In a few hours we'll know if it's a boy or a girl.

my advice is don't drink loads of caffeinated liquid beforehand

I drank too much water before my second attempt and had to pee really badly during the math section, so I dropped a point from my first to second attempt...

Richard Ayoade?

oh my gosh.

OK so like someone from work said I look like Moss from the IT Crowd (played by Ayoade). I legitimately picked my new glasses to match Moss's so I would look more like him.
