another joke
{discussing how X should set up a reunion website.}
{X}: I only have contact info for like 2 or 3 of the people though
{X}: but I suppose one can start somewhere
me: Yeah, friends of friends of friends.
me: Only problem is that you're guaranteed to find jerks within 4 degrees.
me: Maybe you could make it a FB app or something. Or just a FB group.
{X}: well, jerks are people too
me: You're so tolerant.
[...]
me: ah, here's where I last said something like [what we were just talking about.]
me: Wow, I sound like a jerk.
{X}: no kidding
{X}: and only 0 degrees of seperation

"Birth Month" on Facebook
As I turned 32 this year (or 0x20 in hexadecimal), I decided I wanted to
emphasize this occurrence on Facebook by updating my status daily, each
time with an absurdly grandiose (or sometimes just absurd) status
update. And now I'd like to post them here as an archive, and because
I need to put something on my blog.
It was surprisingly annoying having to come up with new and strange
updates every day. I missed a few - one for laziness, one or two for
sickness - and ripped off the Simpsons and other favourite joke sources
here and there as well, though as far as I can tell a fair number of
these are original. As well, it's pretty clear I ran out of gas near
the end.
Some of the comments I got were encouraging. Some people just
appreciated the random jokes, but my favourite comment by far was "I get
a sense of how it must be to live in North Korea".
Mar 29: Andrew Chang says birth month celebrations commence next week.
Please clear your calendars.
Mar 30: Andrew Chang says birth month celebrations commence this
Wednesday. Counting down: 2 more days...
Mar 31: Andrew Chang says birth month celebrations commence this
Wednesday. Counting down: 1 more day. This is not a drill, repeat, this
is not a drill.

Bivalve molluscs are funny
(This is pure silliness)
About a week ago, I was feeling happy for no particular reason and so I
put "Andrew is happy as a clam" on my Facebook status. Then, a couple
of days after that, I got sick, so I thought I would write "Andrew is
sick as a dog", but at the last moment I decided to write "Andrew is
sick as a clam" instead. Then, later in the week I felt a bit better,
and thus "Andrew is as happy as a somewhat sick clam". (Followed, for
the record, by "Andrew is as happy as a somewhat sick clam who's full of
barbeque", "Andrew is trying not to be shellfish", and then "Andrew
feels as healthy as a clam!".)
The point is that the phrase "sick as a clam" just amuses me no end, and
I can't even quite figure out why. I know this can't amuse anyone else
as much as it does me, but I still want to twist a few other common
animal phrases ("clever as a fox", "strong as an ox", "proud as a
peacock", and so on).
