The Socialist Workers Party is hilarious
- all their candidates list their occupation as “sewing machine operator” in the voters’ guide (really?)
- love the stuff about farmers’ rights from their boilerplate (Manhattan farmers unite!)
- for more information about anti-capitalism, be sure to email their listed @mac.com address
College Humor Halloween Party 59 (via jroxas223)
Other than some electrical issues this party was nigh on perfect, due in no small part to:
- Amanda’s eerie and wonderful ability to turn little problems into bigger opportunities
- The heroic cleanup swarm that descended afterwards with spooky military efficiency
- The school being an unexpectedly awesome multiroom party venue
- Jeff’s “Carl from Up” costume
- Zach et al.’s Settlers of Catan megacostume
- Everybody’s costumes, really (and their enthusiasm for dancing)
To the guy who wanted me to play Duck Sauce “off their MySpace page”: nothing changed about me not having internet access, not having my laptop hooked up to play audio directly, and not being able to easily open a web browser between the first time you asked and the subsequent five times. If it hadn’t been so loud I might have been able to explain better, but you were clearly too drunk to understand and/or care. I definitely wasn’t trying to insult your taste as a DJ and the other things you accused me of, I just physically couldn’t play it. Next time hand me a 12”?
Thank you Amanda, Collegehumor, the cleanup crew, the awesome priest in charge of the school (not a costume) and everyone who came!

RocketCam is responsible for most the down-the-side-of-a-rocket-as-it-takes-off shots you’ve seen in the last decade. I like this bit from their marketing: “RocketCam™ AVS provides engineering- and PR-quality situational awareness within a small, rugged, cost-effective package, avoiding the need for high-end and expensive science-quality imaging systems.”
PR-quality situational awareness in a gold box. No price listed.
