Glee: except you, Kurt. You can stop believing
Today my mom wasn’t home, so my eight year old sister asked me to set some words for her so she could write her daily sentences. I knew she did them every day, but I’ve never bothered to read them before.
My sister is a lot of things. She’s extremely smart, fairly quiet, and absolutely hilarious. But today I learned two new things about her:
a) my sister does not have a way with the written word
b) my sister is addicted to crack cocaine
I don’t know what the fuck she’s smoking but I want in on it sweet baby jesus I did not know what to do with myself while I was reading some of these
what is wrong with her
I don’t even understand what some of these mean
(things you should know: I am natalie, and her “silkys” are two little silk & velveteen blankets she’s slept with since she was born.)
Setting: Family dinner table, Christmas Eve.
Characters: Me, my then 5 year old sister.
So there we are, quietly coloring in her Hello Kitty coloring book. I liked drawing with her in the evenings, because it got her out from in front of the TV and because I could subtly impart my wisdom on her (read: freak her the hell out). The TV’s off, my parents are outside, the room is completely silent.
Sister: I had a dream about you last night.
I put down my crayon. “Oh, yeah? What happened?”
She puts her crayon down and stares deep into my soul.
“Santa cut your head off.”
WHAT.
Industrial designer Andrew Kim has created a new Coke bottle concept that could significantly change the sodamaker’s footprint. For every 4 bottles currently shipped, the square bottle design could ship 6. This means every shipping container could hold 4,000 more bottles of Coke. Kim also considered that Americans use 2 million plastic bottles every 5 minutes, so he made the bottle itself green. It is 100% plant based, made entirely from sugar cane byproducts. Which is amusing since Coke hasn’t been made from sugar since 1985 (via Jerry James Stone)
This is really awesome.
Cooooool.
