so. i came to college ave today to a) withdraw from rutgers and b) collect tribute from my brother. i mean, accept a gift. yeah. that's it.

re: a), i have now filled out a piece of paper declaring that i will not return in the fall. this required visits to three offices, including the satellite registrar's office that opened today, and no one knew the location of. when i completed my quest, by giving the requisite signatures to the registrar, she tells me "wait, this is for the fall? well, it's not neccessary, but at least it'll be in the records."

thank you rutgers. i needed to run around in the rain. no, no, i'm sure it builds character or some shit. thank you again.

"Ask me 3 questions, no more no less. Ask me anything you want. Then I want you to go to your journal, copy and paste this allowing your friends (including myself) to ask you anything."


well, honestly, i don't need you to also post this. then i'll have to think of questions.

honestly, a box of paper a day is excessive.

dlib eats paper. in massive quantities. heaps and heaps. there is storage for, at most, four boxes of paper. which is about half a week. i hate everyone who prints more than one page a day. i especially hate people who print things and never pickkthem up, which, it seems, accounts for a fifth to a quarter of all printed pages. i hate people who print seven drafts, because they can't fucking look at print preview.

these are a stench in my nose, and abomination.

some people i know are involved:

The Misfit Library is looking for writers!

Well, not just writers. Good writers. The thing about us is, though,
that we operate a bit differently. We're looking for writers who will
also function as editors, and organizers, and...

See, The Misfit Library works as a collective, and it's much more than
a regular online writing group. Our goal is to provide lesser known
writers of higher quality (like ourselves, we'd like to think) with a
support and editing group, exposure via our upcoming printed journal,
on- and off-line promotion, and even a (presumably very small)
paycheck. On top of helping each other to improve as creators,
however, we want to create things that you'll want to see. Sooner, not
later.

Yes, that's right, printed journal. That means a lot of work, but it
also means, potentially, a lot of reward. We will consider working
with anything we can produce that could possibly be printed in a
quarterly journal. It's all one big experiment, so why limit
ourselves? All works, after all, are works in progress.

We're limiting ourselves to a total of thirteen members. At the time
of this writing, we have five. We need people. Good ones.

Our editorial motto: "Nobody likes crap. Especially if they're paying
for it." If you send in a submission for membership, expect us to be
harsh. If you end up being a part of this, plan on being harsh. If this
sounds like it might be up any of your alleys, visit
http://www.themisfitlibrary.com for info on the submission process.

Please note that we have set a deadline of Monday, April 26th for this,
our second round of submissions. If you don't meet that deadline, it
doesn't mean you're out of the running. It does mean you won't be
considered as part of the pool of candidates who do submit before then,
though, which does hurt your chances of getting in.

As for where we take The Misfit Library from here, and how we take it,
we want you to help us decide. We're pretty smart, and we've got some
solid plans, but if you're coming in we can only assume the same goes
for you.

Please feel free distribute this notice to any potentially interested
parties.

Best Regards,
Starchy
The Misfit Library

at this point, in my head, the judeo-christian god exists only as a scapegoat and recipient of severe beatings.
