We all know how much I enjoy Stephen Colbert. I also really enjoy his “Cheating Death” segment, as it’s a sure source of comedy. Last night’s edition of this segment was probably one of the funniest bits of all time that I’ve seen from this man. Seriously genius. And so funny that he himself couldn’t keep from laughing. Enjoy!

So apparently some school in California has implemented a novel approach to raising test scores: a mute penguin.
Strange concept – the kids like it because it’s like a video game, but I guess this penguin jumps around to show linear equations and whatnot? I’m not sure what the world has come to that kids only learn when there are video games involved, but I guess this is better than nothing.
And it goes to show that penguins are in fact a cure-all 
Usually it’s great to have the president talking about you. I guess not if you’re Kanye West.
Imagine this:
“Oh yeah, the president was talking about me!? What did he say”
“He called you a jackass”
LOL

Its not even 8am and already I have been called “sweetie” and “hun” by random strangers. I HATE this and I’m tired and cranky. But they did volunteer to let me cut them in line so I guess its ok? Lol
Time for an in-flight nap!
I was recently introduced to a website called snacksandshit. And it’s amazing. Like, I cannot stop reading it amazing.
Basically these guys just listen to rap songs and make posts that highlight the stupidest things rappers say. Sometimes they make literal interpretations, sometimes they provide pretty hilarious commentary, and sometimes they simply don’t need to say anything. Like this one:
“Don’t holler at me unless money is the topic”
- Nipsey Hussle, Hussle Is My Last Name
Friend: Hey what time is it?
Nipsey: What did we talk about?
Friend: Oh, that’s right. Sorry. Umm… What time is it right now at the bank?
Nipsey: Ten after two.

LOL
Or this one:
“If you wanted to ride my nuts that bad, you should’ve asked me, mang”
- Lil Wyte, Dangerous Posse by Three 6 Mafia
Can you imagine asking someone this?
“Hey Lil Wyte, can I ride your nuts? I want to really badly.”

Pretty much this is my current favorite website. Thanks Mel for the entertainment!! Adding it to my links right now!!
My parents have a campsite at a lake pretty near their house, and they go up there most weekends. They’ve been trying to get me to come out and spend a weekend up there for quite some time now, and I finally decided to trek out there on Sunday.
Why have I never made the time to do this previously?
First and foremost, when I say “campsite” I really mean high-end camping. I’ve definitely done camping a variety of ways, from the seriously rustic, no electricity/no civilization for 50 miles/pee in a bush kind to the camp in a tent that’s walking distance to a “real” bathroom, all the way up to the camp in a pop-up tent trailer that, depending on the location, may or may not have access to running water (but at least it’s more or less indoors). This is nothing like any of those. My parents bought a regular (non-popup) trailer a few years ago, and it’s so freaking wonderful. It’s bigger, has a separate bedroom area, a fully functioning kitchen, a bathroom with shower, and of course heat and A/C. The living room has a pop-out so that you have more space, and the kitchen table and the couch both fold down into additional beds. In my personal opinion, not having to leave your indoor bed in the middle of the night to pee does NOT equal true camping. It’s some serious luxury lol.
We’ve already established that I’m totally obsessed with So You Think You Can Dance. This isn’t news. However, tonight I was very pleasantly surprised by the episode that popped up in my TiVo. Apparently Season 6 starts next week (hooray!) and as a segway into that, Nigel Lythgoe came on and hosted a show with his 15 favorite dances. Basically it was his top 5 per season.
There were some classics I had forgotten about:
*Courtney and Mark dancing to “The Garden”, choreographed by Sonya – it was so strange, but that’s why I LOVED it (watch)
*Neil and Sabra dancing to “Sweet Dreams”, as choreographed by Mandy Moore (watch)
As well as classics I hadn’t forgotten about:
*Kayla and Kipono dancing Mia Michels piece on addiction to “Gravity” (watch)
*Mark and Chelsea dancing to “Bleeding Love” as choreographed by Tabitha and Napoleon (watch)
But of course my favorite routine of this season was with Jeanine and Jason, dancing to Jason Mraz‘s “If It Kills Me”. OMG so beautiful. And passionate. And everything else. Definitely glad it made it into the top 15:

As I’m sure you noticed, I have several password protected posts (some recent, some from way long ago). If you don’t have the password and you feel like you should, you’re probably right Leave me a comment here and I’ll hook you up!
