I love this awful Audible.com commercial I keep seeing.

"I'm not much of a reader, but I do wish I were more well read!"

Then you see exactly what you expect to see: people listening to audio books on their iPods, nodding their heads with huge idiot smiles on their faces, while waiting at a bus stop or lying on the sofa. Because I guess you can't read real books in locations such as these.

And the best part:

"With Audible, I feel... smarter!"

Quotes like this are spoken while we're shown covers of books like Dan Brown’s The Lost Symbol and Stephen King’s Duma Key. You know, books that make you feel smart.

Good morning everybody! I had a dream that my alarm went off and I couldn't turn it off and my neighbours were getting annoyed. I woke up at 4 after 4 and my alarm was on. Other than that, I'm fine. :)

Hello deadinhead. :)

Well I think most people get nervous about exam results, just to varying degrees I guess. I think sometimes you do better than you think you have.

So you want to study art and design? I reccomend it! :thumright:
