DC Conspiracy is Live and Disrupting Differentials

Monday, February 28, 2005

First things first. D to the mother fuckin’ C Conspiracy is fully live, go check it out. If you’re in the DC area, join up. We’re going to be drinking, talking about the industry, drinking, going to events, drinking, making a jam book, drinking, sharing a table at SPX, drinking, doing a local FCBD promotion and drinking. I designed the tight, tight site and the massively talented Deborah Orgel did all of the illustrations except for the bad ones. I did those (and to see the bad ones you need to explore the inside of the tree house – put a few Easter eggs in there – more to come). So check it out.

As for me, I studied all weekend. ALL WEEKEND. I took one shower since Friday night and put on jeans once to get a burrito on Saturday. I got a second burrito on Sunday but I stayed in my sweat pants. I am so fucking hot right now. I’m just having a hard time grasping this class, my last class, and then I get my masters. All I want is a C.

Shit used to be a lot easier, I was a lazy fuck over at Boston University and yet I still flew by. Take my Differential Equations class, for instance. Sounds tough. It was at 8AM. I rarely went. I went for the midterm and the final and then a few random classes that I slept through. One class had a great moment, probably the greatest moment in class sleeping history.

I actually had the nerve to show up to class in my pajamas. Red fucking flannel pajama pants and a crusty t-shirt, a hoody thrown over it. Now, this wasn’t too strange for me. I wore my PJs quite often. I wore them out to bars occasionally if it was a weeknight. PJs and slippers. If it was cold I threw on a robe. So to say that I showed up in my 8AM class in PJs wasn’t really that big of a deal.

But, obviously, I instantly fell asleep. This was one of those stadium seating style rooms, I had my feet up and draped over the chair in front in me. A little bit into the class, I’m snoozing away, when an anomaly in my environment wakes me up. I hear a tremendous fart.

I wake up, turn and look at my Mormon friend Josh, point at him and start laughing my ass off. My laughter dies down as I realize Josh, and everyone else, is laughing at me. It was pretty embarrassing, I let the laughter and smell die down and go back to sleep, never to return to differential equations until the final.

I got an A in that class. A is for ass of death.

Yo, you know how that cripple, Stephen Hawkins, is/was working on a Grand Unification Theory for the entire cosmos?

Well, I've sort of been tweaking out a similar equation, only its focused on uncovering what makes shit funny.

I've extrapolated some new data from this assplosion entry of yours.

The inclusion of a well timed, well placed, but utterly useless, detail can transform even the most mundane sentence from boring ass lead to comedic gold.

For example...

I wake up, turn and look at my Mormon friend Josh, point at him and start laughing my ass off.Class, can you spot the giggle catalyst in that sentence?

That's right.

Mormon.

Found this to be the funniest part of the story.

No offense to any Mormons out there. Seriously. I love Utah and I frequently burn a spliff in honor of Notorious B.I.G. and Joseph Smith Jr.

That sentence just made snicker so hard a booga flew out of my nose.

Ooooh, thanks for noticing my massive talent. I usually try to wear loose shirts to hide them.
