Pass me a slice of Istanbul, please.
I’ve actually been there. I’ve never been to New York, but I was in Istanbul a year ago. And much to my surprise, it was beautiful. I don’t know why I wasn’t expecting it to be. I think someone in my family went once and didn’t say many nice things about it, but it made for a pleasant surprise. Also, I think I could spend 3 days haggling in the Grand Bazaar.
However, I’m positive that the worst drivers in all the world, are in Istanbul, Turkey. This coming from a girl who learned to drive in Los Angeles, at the age of 12, no less. But I’m serious. I’ve never been so scared to be in a car or bus in my life. It wasn’t just my life I was in fear of losing, but literally everyone around me. People just walk out in front of cars going what felt like 55MPH to dart across the road. Athens runs a close second, but Istanbul? Wear your fucking seatbelts. Or just walk.
Went there and Athens this past summer and could not agree more about the drivers. Drivers in greece are crazy but have a little bit of sense still left, but Istanbul drivers exist on another plane. We took a cab back from dinner one night and I’m pretty sure the cabby was trying to scare us on purpose. Crossed the double yellows multiple times, got inches from the rear tire of a bike, braking at the last possible nano second. Besides that though, it’s a really fantastic place. Here’s a picture I took outside the Grand Bazaar

Things I didn't know: James Cameron filmed "The Abyss" (1989) inside a decommissioned nuclear reactor somewhere in South Carolina that he filled with millions of gallons of water.
It kinda makes up for his casting of Chris Elliott.
Also: During the rigorous and problematic shoot, the cast and crew began calling the film by various derogatory names such as “Son Of Abyss”, “The Abuse” and “Life’s Abyss And Then You Dive”. Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio reportedly suffered a physical and emotional breakdown because she was pushed so hard on the set, and Ed Harris had to pull over his car at one time while driving home, because he burst into spontaneous crying. (via)
And I’d make them do it again if they made a movie as good as that one.

Behold: The Future!
I saw 2012 yesterday. Here’s what you need to know.
- From now on every president is black.
- In the future we invent vehicles that cannot operate with a door open.
Really? Of the 3 movies you see every year you chose 2012?

Whole Foods is the best food court to ever exist in ever.
6od:
I know it’s a market and that part is dope, too, but really - as a food court it could stand alone. They have everything. It’s where you should go if you’re hungry and don’t know what you want. There’s no menu to look through. You just see food. And it’s fucking amazing food, too. Right now, Whole Foods is serving Thanksgiving dinner. Yup. Thanksgiving fucking dinner. And it’s fresh, it’s not like… Thanksgiving leftovers status, this is like you showed up to the party an hour late, but JUST in time to sit down and grub in a serious way. Like you haven’t eaten in months. Except you also have the option of sushi or chinese food or some vegan grainy shit or some PIZZA or like, maybe you want some muffins or chocolate gourmet shit or some middle eastern food. Like a falafel. Or you’re on a diet and want a salad of spinach and chopped celery with like, half a squeezed lemon for dressing. It doesn’t matter. It’s all possible at Whole Foods. It doesn’t get any better. I mean, I guess it could if they added an Umami Burger section and that taco truck from La Brea and Olympic. And maybe like, a Yogurtland. But I really think that would be too much. It would bust some type of universal truth wide open. It would cause like cosmic forces to collide and all the molecular energy would move so fast, it’d make the Large Hadron Collider look like the teacups ride at Disneyland. Whatever, you don’t get it.
Reblog for LHC mention. Yea… I’m a geek like that. And also the Whole Foods food court is a site to behold.

I saw this in theaters with my brother and my mom when I was little. I don’t remember it though because the theater was empty and my brother and I just ran up and down the aisles.To further prove how incredibly uncool i was as a kid…
my family did not own the VHS of TMNT 1 or 2… but we owned a copy of the lesser known and less loved (mostly cause it was horrible) Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3, The Turtles are Back…. in time.
I remember sliding open that oak drawer full of home videos and steven spielberg movies to always see this cover glaring back at me. As if to insult me and my lack of coolness at a young age.

That's different
There is a girl in a goth nurses outfit and a member of Judas Priest in the office right now. Slightly different than normal, more details to come later.
