I feel an impact tremor...in my underpants!

Damn Hippies!

Just kidding, this scene is definitely going to haunt my nightmares forever and ever.

I laughed. Literally. The entire time this was playing.

I dunno! Something about all those kids shitting themselves in terror and/or delight just made me giggle.

A Masterpiece, Obviously

This is the Jurassic Park theme, slowed down 1000%. Simply incredible. It becomes an emotional journey completely unlike the original rendering, and yet...clear kin of the tune we know so well.

Jurassic Park Theme (1000% Slower) by birdfeeder

Hell yes.

This is absolutely the funniest thing I've ever seen, easily, for so many reasons

New 3 Word Vocabulary

When I was in high school, my friends and I used to joke that we had a three word vocabulary. It consisted of Dude, Fuck, and Seriously, and it served us quite well - if you try hard enough (or not that hard at all, I guess), you can mix those three words up into a pretty sufficient number of permutations, and get your point across effectively.

This YouTube comment inspired me to go back to my linguistic roots. Except instead of "dude", "fuck", and "seriously"...

An Oldie But A Goodie

David reminded me of this a couple days ago. This video always tickles me...Always.


INTERNET? I'D SAY...INTER...NET!

(PS. Why yes, that IS a "dinosaurs" tag. Don't judge me)

Stuff! Yay!

Oh good. FOR FUTURE REFERENCE, it took me this long to reach the point at which "Stuff!" is an acceptable post title. However much of a new low this is, though, "Stuff!" is also an accurate description.

I posted a link on Twitter the other day to an Awl article about a recent court ruling (and subsequent comments made by relevant justices) about appropriate vs. inappropriate uses of "fucking" (and other curse words, specifically female-specific ones like "bitch") in the workplace. You should check it out here. It's fucking awesome (See what I did there? Yeah you do). What's even better is the resulting comments going to town:

LOLOLOLOLOL

I also found this: Dinosaur Ballet!


And that concludes Priya's Multimedia Roundup for today.

I Seriously Can't Resist These

I'll just let that speak for itself.

WHAT

So...there's a city in Colorado called DINOSAUR and all the streets are DINOSAUR THEMED. I kind of want to go as a dinosaur for Halloween. Anyway:



Sweet.

Do you guys think I need a "dinosaurs" tag yet?

MOM. DAD.

This is important. I think I finally found a SUITABLE BOY!

Related: Here's an excerpt from a recent interview Aziz Ansari did with the Chicago Tribune.

Which fictional character is most like you?

Wow. This is tough. I'll say Dr. Grant from "Jurassic Park." I like to think I'm pretty level-headed and if kids were trapped in a Ford Explorer getting attacked by a dinosaur I would make an effort to save them, as opposed to go hiding in the toilet like that weasely lawyer.

Dear Aziz,

I am pleased to announce that I am now accepting Suitor Applications (with attached biodata sheets, of course, and a cover letter if possible!). From you only.

Cool,
- Priya

Big Promises

Hey, hey, yeah, I know I talked a lot of smack about actual writing before. Hookups, and all, remember? But never you mind that. I thought about everything and my brain is broken from last week so fuck it. I'll get around to it sometime but not now.
Kids, that's what happens when you turn 23, have a crisis of personality, and drink yourself stupid for five days in a row. It breaks your brain and everyone thinks you're a failure. Don't do it.

My convalescence will bring substance back to Fairly Alarmed, dear readers. I swear it. In the meantime, here's something pretty for you to ponder while I lie here quietly with a cool compress over my eyes.

HAYYYY!!!!

Generally I object to anything which reduces the majesty and sheer fucking awesomeness of dinosaurs (especially the dinosaurs from Jurassic Park), but this is actually something I do in movies anyway.
