Happy Ides of March, everyone!
“Why should Caesar get to stomp around like a giant, while the rest of us try not to get smushed under his big feet? What’s so great about Caesar? Hm? Brutus is just as cute as Caesar. Brutus is just as smart as Caesar. People totally like Brutus just as much as they like Caesar. And when did it become okay for one person to be the boss of everybody, huh? Because that’s not what Rome is about. We should totally just *stab* Caesar!”
- Gretchen Weiners
Becca! Remember that time you did this speech in your Owen voice at Fangirls Gone Wild? GOOD TIMES.
I do, indeed. It’s probably the greatest thing I’ve ever accomplished in life to date.
fact: i still listen to that mp3 whenever i need to laugh my face off.

#my friends are weird #but also the best
I was so shitfaced last night that I told Lisa that she was my favorite like woman Fassbender after she promised to find me a bearded O’Reilly to marry.
Then she told me to make it into a valentines card so I did while totally drunk.
I am impressed that I could spell and work photoshop.
and i agreed to marry her after she tried to tell me that joey and pacey’s love wasn’t pure and then blamed germany. SO YOU KNOW IT’S FOR REAL.

This is what happened: A little over ten years ago, on March 9, 2001, 39-year-old Meiwes, a computer technician living in the German village of Wüstefeld, brought home, had sex with and killed 44-year-old Brandes, a Berlin man who lived about 250 miles away. Meiwes then ate 44 pounds of his flesh over a period of ten months. While that may sound like murder, there’s something else that should be mentioned: Brandes wanted it all to happen.
Meiwes and Brandes first communicated in February 2001, when the soon-to-be cannibal responded to Brandes’ online ad looking for someone to eat him alive—“no slaughter, but eating.” Soon they were sending daily emails to one another describing explicitly what would happen when they met. Brandes, writing as “Cator,” wrote to Meiwes, a.k.a. “Antrophagus,” on Feb. 5, saying, “I hope you’re really serious about it, because I really want it and have already met enough cyber-cannibals.”
this is relevant to the interests of way too many of my friends.
