Am I allowed to take this art history class? I don't have a scarf on, I have no artistic ability, and I'm wearing cowboy boots.

4. The Crying of Lot 49, by Thomas PynchonWeird little book. You're carefully marching along, and then you realize things are happening right and left, and you frantically try to snatch at the pieces. It's like being in the middle of a giant conspiracy theory...more of an experience than a novel.

Someone brought up "the tiger mother controversy" in class tonight and it took me minutes....minutes...before I realized what he was talking about. During those minutes I imagined a rascally lactating tiger.

assuming it's from the ci poem: 一番雨过,江头绿涨,催唤扁舟解去。重来言语是相宽,怎得似、而今且住。 阳关声断,同心未绾,簌簌泪珠无数。秋鸿春燕往还时,莫忘了、锦笺分付。

When I was little, my mom told me never to complain about anti-Asian discrimination. “It’s the easiest stereotype to overcome,” she pointed out. “If you don’t like the model minority stereotype, all you have to do is get a nose ring.” And indeed, today, Asians in America are successfully outgrowing the model minority fable. But the stereotype is changing much faster than the population; the stereotype has become amorphous, all-encompassing, and practically impossible to overcome. And even when exceptions are identified, I’m not sure they should be. Why does Jeremy Lin have to be the exception to the rule? Why can’t he just be a posterchild for everything awesome and empowering about this (our) generation of rule-breaking Asian-Americans?
Anyways, that’s my rant of the month. By the way, I mean rule-breaking in a broad sense. Of course we still do our homework. Oh, and Jeremy Lin...here’s my number, so call me maybe?

The pushy parent had brought only a chocolate bar and a cup of water for rations, thinking there would be shops en route.
He soon realised that, 'unlike a lot of Chinese mountains', Fuji does not have steps, according to Chinese media sources.

"triple package" is one of the worst attempted thinkmemes I've ever heard
― signed, J.P. Morgan CEO (Hurting 2), Tuesday, 7 January 2014 02:49 (ten years ago) link
it's interesting though that the combination of "superiority" and "insecurity" is normally described more succinctly as "narcissism." Which I do indeed believe is a common trait of the "successful."
