So, this is my new blog, “what’s ur damage?”. Mainly a mix of pop culture and personal musings on whatever I deem fit. A good place to keep tabs on me and the sometimes ridiculous shit that goes through my head. There will be a few regular features, like “Sunday Bitter Sunday,” “This Month in White Vagina Mountain,” “Blasian,” and maybe some brief ProjRun and ANTM recaps. Otherwise, anything is game.
I figured, let’s start with a meme. I mean, why not, it’s my blog, right?
I’ve been re-reading Microserfs this week, a book by Douglas Coupland (one of my favorite authors). Basically, it’s about a group of people slaving away at Microsoft in the early 90s who realize that they don’t really have lives and maybe they should work on that. I do love the whole office workers + post-modern existential despair narrative. Anyway, to introduce the reader to the characters, the narrator lists what each person’s 7 dream categories would be if their life were a game of Jeopardy! Mine would be:
1. 90’s pop culture
2. The gays
3. feminism
4. sad bastard music
5. awkward comedy
6. Batman
7. cheap wine
What are yours? Dish.
