Humberto?
As many of you know Hurricane Humberto is supposed to make landfall at some point. Humberto?? What kind of f*cking name is that for a Hurricane? While I applaud the mutliculturalization of hurricane naming I can just can't abide by Humberto. Why do we need to anthropomorphize Hurricanes? We need to give the boys down in the National Weather Service more freedom. I know I'd be a lot more interested in following the developments of Hurricane Shasta McNasty than fu&king Humberto.
I'll start circulating a petition...

All hurricanes should be named after women--specifically, women in malls the day after Thanksgiving. Have you seen them tear through the stores looking for discounts?? Oh my, those ladies are fierce!

You are dead to me chaucer.
ReplyDeleteThis hurricane and destruction talk reminds me of another JJ8 member, and specifically of one night involving this man, Jin. Remember the night two separate parties of us met in the middle of colleg walk, and Aja's friend Bob ended up igniting the fury of Jin?
ReplyDeleteThis leads me to the question of who would win in a fight, a wildly intoxicated Jin or a hurricane?...But wait...what if the hurricane were name Hurricane Jin?
Relevant quote:
ReplyDelete"Who's that guy?"
"That's Aja's friend Bob."
"Can I punch him?"
Let's get the facts straight. Jin's rage was ignited at Alexa Danner's open bar 21st birthday by Brandon von Tobel. Among people he tried to fight: everyone at that party, the cab driver who took him home, and at least two different girls on college walk. The whole thing culminated in him locking himself in his room in a destructive rage, and Raju (rightly) calling security on him.
ReplyDeleteSlight correction: Raju and I expended great effort to get him in a cab and back to his room, then Raju called CAVA (which, I admit, I wasn't totally on board with as necessary).
ReplyDeleteI think Raju did the right thing. But then again, he might have been quick on the trigger because he lost that kid during RA roll playing.
ReplyDeleteShould've used the Pete Steenland direct line. Pete Pete was always a master of discretion.
ReplyDeleteWhen it came to CAVA, I'm sure Pete Steenland thought of himself as Harvey Keitel's character in Pulp Fiction.
ReplyDeleteChaucer speaks the truth. I may have been a little shook after losing that kid during RA training (I told him to take pills I thought were his medication but turned out to be sleeping pills. Nonetheless calling CAVA is a decision I would make a second time even though Jin and I never really spoke again.
