We really hate the NBC executives
Me: They're doing some stupid Voice crossover in the Parks finale. I imagine Mike Schur is probably really pissed about it and NBC is just making him.
Stephanie: WHAT THE. No, what is this shit?
Me: Like Cee Lo Green is literally appearing in the episode.
Stephanie: NO NO NO NOT HIM. HOW COULD THEY DO THIS TO ME?
Me: I don't hate The Voice, but it cannot be associated with Parks.
Stephanie: Literally the worst thing to happen since the execution of Jesus. (Is that too much?)
Me: No, perfectly reasonable.

Another one of our top-notch conversations
Kelli: I really need a job.
Andrew: "Fuck bitches get money". That's all I have to say about your situation, Kelli.
Julie: Do you guys interpret that as literally fucking bitches or "fuck bitches" in the sense that you're ignoring them?
Sara: The first one.
Kelli: I thought it was like fucking people over to get ahead and make money, so the second one. Are we analyzing it too much?
Julie: I always thought it was like that too, like fuck what the bitches think and YOLO.
Andrew: This is an important issue that needs to be addressed. Who do we contact to make an amendment? Michelle Obama?
Sara: No, it's fuck bitches and get money...that's the life of a rapper. They just sleep around and make that paaaaaperrrrr.
Kelli: Oh okay, Sara. I thought it meant fuck bitches and then after that you get the money.
Julie: I think it's deeper than that, Sara.
Kelli: Who started this? I think we can then judge how deep that person is and see what it means.
Julie: It could happen at the same time or in the order of the saying.
Tracey: I love that you guys are analyzing this!
Kelli: According to rapgenius.com, Notorious B.I.G. meant what Sara said and Li'l Wayne meant what Julie and I said. So Li'l Wayne is deeper.
Julie: Oh dang, hahaha.
Tracey: That's interesting. I just thought it meant to fuck bitches...like sexually.
Stephanie: Seriously, this is up there with one of our greatest conversations ever.

Si tú me olvidas de Pablo Neruda
Quiero que sepas
una cosa. Tú sabes cómo es esto: si miro la luna de cristal, la rama roja del lento otoño en mi ventana, si toco junto al fuego la impalpable ceniza o el arrugado cuerpo de la leña, todo me lleva a ti, como si todo lo que existe, aromas, luz, metales, fueran pequeños barcos que navegan hacia las islas tuyas que me aguardan. Ahora bien, si poco a poco dejas de quererme dejaré de...

“Stephanie, he’s so cute. I really want you to marry him. Steph/Zach Condon...”
– Kelli Mleczko (aka the Taylor Swift to my Selena Gomez, aka my best friend in the universe after this comment), as we obsessively pined over Beirut’s Coachella performance.

Bother, bother... And more bother.
I have been thinking a lot today and lately about the importance of decisiveness.
I never considered my indecisiveness to be an issue of great importance, because it usually had to do with where to eat dinner on a hangout with friends or what movie to watch during a quiet night at home alone. But even on heavier topics on morality or social issues, I always saw it as something of merit to be...

Turn away from sin and be faithful to the Gospel.
“Let us be concerned for each other, to stir a response in love and good works.” - Hebrews 10:24
With the grace of God, I shall deny the flesh and bind myself to the virtue of Christ in a more intense way for these next 40 days. I entrust myself to our Blessed Mother to intercede for me so that I may enter more fully into my relationship with the Blessed fruit of her womb, Jesus, and...

I Pulled a Buried Life
traceytrang:
kellimleczko:
So this morning as I was walking to Spanish class with my roommate, we saw tents set up and assumed they were filming something. Then, as we got closer I saw a guy with a Knope 2012 sweatshirt and I grabbed my roommate’s arm with a death grip and whispered, “That guy’s wearing a Knope shirt” and she was like “Okay…?” and then I explained that that means they’re...

I have cried twice in my life.
cleareyesfullparkscantlose:
Once when the Dillon Panthers won State. And again when I found out Mike Schur tweeted about us.
The last 24 hours have been a roller coaster of emotions. Think playoff season crazy.
First, we find out that BuzzFeed gave us a few praises over on their nifty site for what’s hot in social media, calling this “the most important Tumblr of our time.”That was enough to...
