I’m going to build something today.
“Interests and Hobbies: Too all ladies we are do parties, house calls watever...”
– Youtube user Amp6
vimeo: I really like how a large amount of Vimeo vids are creative things that aren't like "The Transformers Rap"
vimeo: I want us to be more PBS than MadTV
aaonvimeo: That's a great analogy

Filing technique is my favorite.
I just found a canister of little marshmallows for your coffee or cocoa in the break room. It’s in the same style canister as the sugar and non-dairy creamers. Can I just say, it’s been raining all week, but this makes up for it!
I was told my original reblog was mean.
The negativity in the forums and on users’ websites is starting to get me down. Have we even had V5 for more than a day yet? I’m willing to bet if we gave it one week, and then went back to V4, the same people would make lists for reasons why going back to V4 was a bad idea!
Why I Love Vimeo Reason #21847:
ryan brown 3 hours ago: To what extent is the ad staff really “recommending” these products. Are we supposed to infer that you’ve sifted through potential advertisers and chosen the products that you’ve tested/enjoyed/approved? I’m just curious, its an interesting and novel way to advertise. Jakob Lodwick 2 hours ago: Jonathan sent an email out asking for links to...
WatchI’ve pioneered the fofofo. Heather gets full-credit for the clever name.
I swam laps yesterday with Carl and his dad. When I swim laps, I imagine myself as a river otter.
“If you ever get to ‘drink a pint’ with SteveR, have patience. I warn...”

WatchThis is hilarious. Watching it makes me feel like I’m laughing along with them!
I have a couple jars of play-doh at my desk now. It really takes me back to my childhood.
“Pretty it up.”
– directions given to me for a instructional handout on our company’s automated phone system.
thommy: Today is no shirt day
aa: Tomorrow is no underwear day.
aa: don't forget
thommy: free ballin'
aa: free vagin'
“It’s like you’re walking around with a secret.”
– My coworker, Erin, after I told her I wasn’t wearing a bra at work today.
You should listen to “Chicken Payback” by The Bees. Try not to dance.
miller: i sent you teh e mail today
aa: I know
aa: I got it, but didn't respond because you said you never check it
miller: thats true, i was just bored
aa: it was a good email. it made me wonder what bad words you used in order to get it sent back
miller: it censored me the first time. the subject line said "i'm rad, you're rad, fuck it"
miller: i threw the mask off on that one
aa: HAHA
“You have been judged at “LameFactor.”
– facebook. The only reason I keep my facebook is because people are lazy when it comes to contacting others. Unless the links to my sites are listed on my facebook, my friends won’t bother. I’m trying to muster up the strength or courage or whatever to delete all info except my tumblr....
teaching methods: my new idea
I had this really interesting dream last night from which I have an idea for teaching native English speaking students in the United States with the methods you would teach non-native English speaking students. It has to do with the fact that children growing up in homes that do not use standard broadcast English need to differentiate their home-language from the English Americans use in public...
Tina Mutherfuckin' Mosh!
Thommy: We are like, so fuckin' old school.
AA: I know, I remember vimeo when Tina Mosh was the fuckin shit
Thommy: totally
Thommy: she still is!
Thommy: but I know what your talking about
AA: I still think she is, too, but it's different.
AA: For a while it felt like vimeo revolved around her
I saw Ben Folds and John Mayer in concert tonight. I was so happy Mayer didn’t sing “Your Body Is A Wonderland.”
WatchJosh Flowers is one of my favorite vimeo users.
Ping!
Looking up the schedule for the Trolly rides around downtown Wichita. Apparently it’s only 25 cents per ride!
WatchWe had a really fun weekend camping at Fall River. I want to go again as soon as possible.
SteveR: Our camping trips are a little gentler
aa: I saw
aa: You basically bring an entire kitchen.
SteveR: Got to have comforts
aa: we had one iron skillet and no flatware.
SteveR: Savages
aa: Carl is quite the outdoorsman, though
aa: He's an Eagle Scout.
SteveR: He's very butch
Watching Carl practice the drums makes me want to practice something physical and demanding. I feel like swimming laps or high jumping.
“ I died for your sins.”

passive-aggressive signs (cont.)
SteveR wears socks with holes in them. Schroberts sings through the whole alphabet when alphabetizing. - From Geo Andrea pretends to like Radiohead in order to impress her friends - From SteveR
“I love you!”

“Hurd says he first thought the idea was “a pile of hooey,” but he...”
– Finger Length Predicts Aggression in Males
I absolutely love cracking my knuckles. I associate cracking my knuckles with being sly and clever because I used to have to disguise my knuckle cracking in fourth grade. Sister Mary Peter White did not allow it. And anybody caught received a demerit.
Can people tell when they're being stared at?
I read about this experiment by Rupert Sheldrake, and I’m wanting to try it. “Many people have had the feeling they are being looked at and then upon turning around find that they really are. Conversely many people have had the experience of looking at somebody else from behind, seeing them become restless, and then turn around to look. This phenomenon is well known even to children...
passive-aggressive signs (cont.)
Schroberts has never used tampons SteveR has overdue library books
my moo cards
I’m going to make some moo cards that have my title as, “Very Busy and Important”
During the 2004 presidential debates, I remember seeing someone holding a sign behind a reporter that read, “Kerry pees in the shower.” Miller and I have been thinking of other passive-aggressive sign ideas. I’ll use Schroberts and SteveR for our ideas so far. Schroberts plays Magic the Gathering SteveR uses payphones Schroberts memorized the lyrics to REM’s “End of...
did I mention I have a UTI?
“Now that you’ve set this precedent, I’m going to upload a clip of...”
– Vimeo user, SteveR’s latest comment on my UTI clip.
“There’s something about him that’s just a tad creepy. Oh!...”
– FuzzyDave answering a question I had about a new vimeo user and then inquiring about my UTI.
