Warewolf Boy




So i don't think i have ever done a blog about a news article... but this one i just couldn't believe, and so i thought i'd share it with you all.

The boy above is named Pruthviraj Patil and was born in India with a disease called "hypertrichosis", or called warewolf syndrome. Its extremely rare disease that only about 50 people in the world even have. The people of the village that Patil was born in, thought he was some sort of God or some strange creature that came to earth.

Subway Etiquette




Contrary to popular belief subway sandwich artists have feelings to, and there are definately dos and don'ts when it comes to your behavior when ordering a sandwich. These tips will not only make you look savvy and cool when it comes to your subway behavior, but will make the sub making process smooth and easy for your local, friendly subway sandwich artist.

Subway Behavior 101

1. Get off your cell phone!
2. when ordering multiple subs tell the SA (sandwich artist) what kind of bread and what size all the sandwiches are on. Then you may proceed to tell them what kind of sandwich it is.
3. when just ordering a single sub do the same thing. you look like an idiot when you just say "uhhhh...i'll have a feast!!". You may not know this but, we need to know what kind of bread and what size it is before we can put the meat on.
4. Learn how to pronounce words like "Monterey" and "Marinara".
5. if you are in a big group and are paying together let the person who is paying order first. then he can go and pay... makes sense right?
6. don't order sandwiches that don't exist, or that existed 20 years ago.

so there you have it. 6 simple things that will make you look suave. :-)

Lost in Contemplation


picture by Jozefm



What happens to a dream deferred?
Does it dry up
Like a raisin in the sun?
Or fester like a sore--
And then run?
Does it stink like rotten meat?
Or crust and sugar over--
like a syrupy sweet?
Maybe it just sags
like a heavy load.
Or does it explode?

-Langston Hughes
