super cool painted movie

watch this wicked video made by a film graduate student. Apparently it took 2 years to finish and is composed of 6,000 individual paintings. Craziness.

class gets a little out of control

so a few more comments coming out of my Pathology class. it is always interesting.....

- looking at the start of stem cells, from the fertilization of the egg by sperm - "This is how life begins after........... the act of pleasure."

- on how her son has to write a school report about his first kiss - "I don't know how things are around here, so I asked my Caucasian friends, Mitch and Glen."

- more talk about 'first kisses' - "You all remember your first encounter, that first time is the best, the most memorable. Well maybe not the best."

- showing a diagram of colon cancer - "In a colonoscopy you go in through........ the ass."

- discussing a friend who had a lump removed from her breast and then her daughters had gene tests for the same cancer gene - "... these beautiful, well endowed girls with full breasts (makes gesture over chest), what are they supposed to do if the test comes back positive?"

- telling a story about how her husband got a speeding ticket in his new jaguar - "It was a beautiful summer day, not a sausage on the road."

- talking to a classmate who revealed that he has a new girlfriend - "The big day is coming up over the break, so don't blow it."

- discussing how damage happens in the DNA - "Free radicals cause damage ... oh yes, by the way name, how is your new girlfriend?"

- talking about the natural life cycle and preprogrammed cell death - "There are 3 questions when we are born; Where, When, Why and How are we going to die?"

- discussing cancer cell migration - "How many people here are married? Metastasis is like moving in with your mother in law, you must survive."

- talking about gene markers for cancer - "P53, the molecule of the 20th century. If you are asked the question, 'What causes breast cancer?', 70% of the time the answer is always P53."

- asking a classmate about infection - "Have you ever had a fever?" "I've had a fever. I feel like I get a fever everytime you talk to me."

do you have hurt feelings?

Some people say that rappers don't have feelings
We have feelings. (We have feelings)
Some people say that we are not rappers. (We're rappers.)
That hurts our feelings.
(Hurts our feelings when you say were not rappers.)
Some people say that rappers are invincible
We're vincible. (We're vincible.)
What you are about to hear are true stories
(Real experiences)
Autobiographical raps.
Things that happened to us, All true
Bring the rhyme!

I make a meal for my friends,
Try to make it delicious,
Try to keep it nutritious,
Create wonderful dishes.
Not one of them thinks about the way I feel
Nobody compliments the meal

I got hurt feelings, I got hurt feelings
I feel like a prized asshole
No one even mentions my casserole.
I got hurt feelings, I got hurt feelings.
You could a said something nice about my professoroles

Here's a little story to bring a tear to your eye,
I was shopping for a wet suit to scuba dive,
But every suit I tried is too big around the thighs,
And the assistant suggested I try a ladies size

I got hurt feelings, I got hurt feelings
I'm not gonna wear a ladies wet suit I'm a man!
I got hurt feelings, I got hurt feelings
Get me a small mans wet suit, please

Its my birthday, 2003
Waiting for a call from my family

They forgot about me

I got hurt feelings, I got hurt feelings
The day after my birthday is not my birthday, Mum
I call my friends and say, Let's go into town,
But they're all too busy to go into town
So I go by myself, I go into town
Then I see all my friends, they're all in town

I got hurt feelings, I got hurt feelings.
They're all lined up to watch that movie
Maid in Manhattan.
Have you even been told that your ass is too big?
Have you ever been asked if your hair is a wig?
Have you ever been told you're mediocre in bed?
Have you ever been told you've got a weird-shaped head?
Has your family ever forgotten you and driven away?
Once again, they forgot about J
Were you ever called homo cuz at school you took drama?
Have you ever been told that you look like a llama?

Tears of a rapper (tears of a rapper),
I'm crying tears of a rapper
Tears of a rapper

These shows aren't negative, they are empowering!

I love the title of the book for the the guy on the left, "Trick Ass Bitches: An Illustrated History"
