tuesday museday

Aloha and hello! Today's muse is brought to you by the letter W. And no, not that really terrible one.


W is for Win: So my pledges today circulated a link to this site: http://animalinyou.com/ Essentially its one of those really dumb personality tests, in the vein of those that would tell you what house you would be a member of in Harry Potter or what sports team fits your personality. I only mention this one because it gave me a most satisfactory answer. It pronounced me a bear. In case you didn't know, bears are FUCKING AWESOME. They are ferocious, yet can be great friends to humans. In all of their forms, from cute to terrifying, bears are the shit.







W is for Winter: FUCK YOU GROUNDHOG! How dare you fail to see your shadow?! Its probably right there, in front of you! Dickhead. We are all doomed now, so thanks a lot. Also, this event is not nearly as fun or funny as it was portrayed in that hilarious Bill Murray movie. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that we are relegated to six more weeks of this nonsense bullshit "winter" thing. I want to see the sun! I want to not fear slipping and dying on ice. I would also like for my car not to look like it has a permanent salt bukkake, for fuck's sake. Who interprets these results? I bet that smug looking bastard behind you has a large stake in sun lamp and blanket industries, directly profiting from this (perceived, at least) extension of the worst season.

W is for Weather: Its snowing right now. It snowed this weekend. Its supposed to snow again this upcoming weekend. Apparently this weekend storm is supposed to be big. To summarize my thoughts on the matter, I have created this little infographic:
For reference, that blob that covers most of Virginia is brown. In this particular model, brown represents the range between 18 and 20 inches. Of snow.



W is for Wuss: As in the Virginia "Democrats" who voted along with all 18 Republican Senators in the State Senate to render illegal any mandates for insurance coverage. Now while I am not too crazy about a mandate, if it means that more people will get better insurance, I like that idea. Way to carry water (another w-word!) for the whole Health Care Reform initiative. Jackasses. No visits to the White House (w alert!) for you!
