Just watched the episode of The Layover where Anthony Bourdain goes to LA.

He drives by my house. You see what I see on my front porch in the shot. Roommate and I freaked out.

Also, he goes to Tacos Villa Corona and Jumbos — and some lady mentions Tiki Ti, but he doesn’t go there, which makes me so mad.

Tony, come back and I’ll buy you all the Tiki Ti drinks you want.

i got rear ended on the freeway tonight. i hit my head on the steering wheel. i can barely string together words right now. 

my bumper came apart.

but my roommate got me bbq chicken pizza, so this is OK.

gunnarkauth asked: I was not surprised to see that you guessed within .5 of LDR's pitchfork score. Solid prediction.

I believe Born to Die’s sheer awfulness is one thing Pitchfork and I can agree upon.

Anonymous asked: Is it too late? A, B, F.

No, not too late. I’m here until 8pm!

A: Not answering.

B: Depends on my mood. A solid list might be Black Flag, Sonic Youth, the Velvet Underground, Hüsker Dü, Joy Division.

F: Again depends on my mood. Really love Le Samourai, Dr. Strangelove, City Lights.

feedthepoor asked: im not sure if you answered this before... but what made you get so obsessed with Black Flag?

What’s not to love about Black Flag? I mean, for reals.

An abbreviated version of this answer would be: I probably seem “obsessed” because I post Black Flag ephemera and stuff all the time. There’s a reason! I’m writing my Master’s thesis on SST; I have the Flag on my mind. A lot.

Another abbreviated answer: I love aggressive, emotive, noisy music.

shrturl asked: TWZ

T: True story — this weekend, someone finally correctly guessed my age. I was genuinely happy. Usually, I’m mistaken for a 17/18 year old, or people think I’m 30. Depends on the location; usually don’t get asked if I’m in high school when I’m drinking whiskey at a bar.

W: Already answered — but forgot to include EVERY JEFF THE BROTHERHOOD SHOW EVER.

Z: I am OK. Just…OK. Bummed out and a little angry — but hopeful at the same time? Maybe?

Anonymous asked: A, W, M, H. Not forever alone!

A: It depends on who you ask, but it’s really no one’s business. We were together for 4.5 years. He was my best friend. But now it’s over. The end.

W: Am I supposed to name all the concerts? I go to shows at least once a week. Some of my all-time favorites have been: Pavement, My Bloody Valentine, OFF!, Kraftwerk, Davilla 666, Ty Segall, No Age + Bob Mould at ATP…Yeah, this is hard.

M: If I was in such a long relationship and still a virgin, we’d have bigger issues to discuss.

H: Yes, yes and yes.

barelyeducated asked: why don't you get off tumblr and go outside? it's sunny. go for a hike or a walk in elysian park and bring a book and read it on that bench that's like 3/4 of a mile in and has an amazing view of downtown. the internet is terrible and makes you feel like you're in an endless void. my excuse is that i'm in an office, on deadline, and thus can't possibly do anything else.

Unfortunately, I work for corporate America and I’m tethered to my desk. What’s worse — I’m less than a mile from the beach and I’m not allowed to leave my desk because it’s our busiest time of year here. 

Sigh.
