@JK: Yup, same here. <3 Well, your episode recommendations thus far have... interesting titles. I'll try to keep them in mind (or perhaps out of mind). XD OMG that is so true I hadn't thought of that! We could totally form our own internet language! But see, I'm cheap, so have never bought expensive Tupperware before. Glad does the best job of the cheap stuff I've bought.
@Morgey: That's awesome and I feel unimportant because you did not spend hours upon hours to write something about me that I wouldn't be able to understand anyway.

Hahaha...yea, SP episodes often have interesting titles. Although they'll have boring ones, like The List, which I like but is kind of retarded? Anyhow I'll pull up the seasons list later and tell you what I'd recommend and what I'd avoid (and what I love isn't necessarily what I'd recommend).
Oh I am too, but half my old roommates in Davis were Filipino, and as they tell me, this is relevant to tupperware purchases. I don't friggin know why, but so they say so...^_~. I prefer Gladware because it's cheap, so if I don't ever eat what's in it, and it goes bad, I can just throw it away. I felt bad throwing out one of my roommates uber awesome air tight little bomb shelter type tupperware. However she had moved out of the state almost two months prior, and I think it had been 3 months ago that I had seen her put that thing in the fridge. As I was not about to open the little biohazard to clean it, I just threw it away. She wasn't coming back for it. Still, such a shame, it's never a shame to toss the Gladware.

JK; Hope you had fun. :3 And Inorite.
MANBEARPIG! -Runs to rewatch-
Kitsune should probably watch Gnomes. Not because it's a good episode, but because everyone needs to know about the gnomes.
Hey Kitsune, you like anime dontcha? Watch Good Times With Weapons! Or Chinpokomon. Actually, I'll just let JK deal with suggesting episodes, because I'm not sure what's actually good, and what seems good because of the nostalgia (srsly, I've been watching it since I was at primary school, I can't be objective. It's my magical childhood memory.)
Kitsune: Cheerful man makes this incorrect, so he's just there for funsies and because I'm too lazy to translate properly and because the Egyptians had no 'u'.. =D

I did.
YES!
The underpants gnomes? Dude yes, it's not good but their plan is GENIUS! Plus it's got a lot of Tweek and who doesn't love Tweek? Crazy drugged out spaz that he is.
Ooh...yes watch Good Times With Weapons!!! But not first, it's just fun to see SP all anime style, and they got a kick a** ninja song. Poor butters though. Chinpokomon is hilarious in that it is retarded, they are all retarded!
Also, Morgey, you said you were at Birmingham right, what do you think of the school? Also, do you know anything about Durham? I haven't even heard back from them yet but people keep telling me how amazing it is and how they want me to go there but I'm kinda leaning towards Birmingham. Just wondering if you had an opinion. Thank-en-zee!

WHEE
I didn't finish it. =[
Plus, it's got an appearance from Cartman's stick!
Yeah, GTWW is better if you know what the hell the show is like beforehand, or the style change won't make any sense. It has Butters. ^_^
I want a Wild Wacky Action Bike. YOU CAN'T RIDE IT, YOU CAN'T RIDE IT.
I know nothing about Durham unfortunately. Birmingham's okay. They're really big on encouraging independence, which I imagine most universities are, but they brag about this ALL THE TIME so I thought I'd mention it. The (is it right to call them teachers?) teachers are usually available if you need some guidance, which is good, although you usually have to make an appointment because good luck getting seen if you don't. Computers are hard to get on to because there's so many people, but not impossible. There's a Jobcentre on the campus- not a very useful one, but it's there nonetheless. The library is pretty crap, but there's another one you can go to which is better, and hell there's always Google books. So yeah, it's okay. If you ******** up, they're really supportive and helpful, which is nice. I wouldn't rave about it, but I wouldn't say it's bad either. And remember, I hate everything, so this probably counts as a glowing review from me.

Aww, you should finish it.
"everyone knows it's Butters...*ding*" - ok that's a different episode but still, it popped into my head. *tries to remember which episode it is*...*fails*...*eats waffles*.
What is a Wild Wacky Action Bike?
Mkay, that's cool...glowing eh? Haha...well I almost never went to office hours unless I had too (as in it was a requirement of the class to meet with the professor), I'm pretty...*drum roll*...independent when it comes to my study habits. I'll hopefully have my own computer and less it goes poof, so that's fine. I have no idea if I'll be able to even secure a work visa yet, so a Jobcentre might not be useful to me anyhow. I'm used to a library that's amazing but too large to navigate and therefore useless anyhow, so that's fine too. So I think I can live with that.
I'll probably decide by next weekend for sure, but I think it's looking like I'll be wandering around Birmingham next fall.

@JK: Oh, how strange. XD I have two Filipino friends, and neither of them have ever said anything about Tupperware. Ew, that's kinda nasty. Yeah, I would've thrown it away too.
@Morgey: I'll keep those episode titles in mind. XD Oh wow, that is so awesome. I didn't actually think you'd write anything, but thank you!

@Kits - Haha, I'm pretty sure it has nothing to do with that. However most of my Asian and Hispanic friends - Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Filipino, Cambodian, Thai, Mexican, Honduran, Peruvian etc - tend to attribute everything they do as a cultural standard. Some of these things are, others are more of an area standard that a culture tends to tout as their own. I'm sure buying expensive Corningware is one of those things.
It's very nasty, our fridge got so gross because people would put leftovers away and forget about them. I don't cook, I can, I just don't, so I rarely had food. Just juice or milk or something. Which I kept track of. I like doing dishes, but not scraping out decaying masses. Usually the people going through the fridge were me, and either my roommate who also never had food (because she's a vacuum and food cannot escape!! - she's in good shape though considering, haha) or the one who was very good about checking the dates on her stuff.
Right...episodes...I'll get to that eventually!!! Hehe *dies*.

Seems completely normal to me, but perhaps I'm just used to it. I guess when you live in such a diverse hotpot, where even majorities can feel like minorities, people tend to enjoy customs. If they aren't exactly well practiced in their own culture - and don't particularly want to be - the next best thing is to invent a hodgepodge of their own. I'm sure with the Tupperware there is probably some point trying to be made, some standard of cooking and the tools used within, it's just in bits and pieces it's kind of amusing.
Very ew, when I'm looking for a place to live next year I should have a survey including the question: If you fill the fridge, how often do you clean it out? Haha, although I had great roommates whom I really enjoyed living with, especially considering the roommates I had previous to that. So I'm not going to fuss over the small things. I do that far too often anyhow.

Yeah, California is definitely more diverse than Arizona. I'd say it's nearly half white, half Mexican, with a few other races being somewhat common, probably going from highest percentage to lowest percentage with black, Asian, Arabic, then native American. Although I'm sure there are tons more native Americans on the reservations, so they might outnumber Asian and Arabic without me realizing it. We don't really hear much about specific cultures though; everyone just seems to do their own thing, or keep that part of their identity more personal. Good survey to have. XD

Yea, we are definitely very diverse, although my specific area was more diverse than some parts. You'll get your "white" areas or "black" areas or "Mexican" areas. As a whole though it's a pretty wide covering of all. What specific Asian or Middle Eastern you get varies from place to place, but you'll have it. And you'll get a lot of Hispanic besides Mexican. Honduran and Peruvians are what I know best. Although there are some Brazilians/Argentines floating around too. Those I met more in Davis than back in the bay where I grew up. I'm sure you have more Native American's than we do though.
Haha, I might keep it in mind still.
And it's 1:17am and I really should get to sleep, I'm only trying to get up by 9 but I know at least one of the girls here is getting up at 6:30, and she's the one in the downstairs room so I'll be waking up no matter what. Gnite world! razz

Arizona is a little more... you either have 'white' areas that will be mostly white, with some black and some Mexican, hardly anything else, or you'll have 'minority' areas that are mostly Mexican with a few black and even less white. Generally those areas are close together though, so the schools often portray both groups, which I like. I've always lived in the 'white' areas, but have been able to make friends of many different areas thanks to schools. We hardly have any Hispanic besides Mexican though. Ooh, lack of sleep is no fun.

We have white areas, minority areas, and hodgepodge areas. A lot of the bay is definitely hodgepodge, large parts of SoCal, the Sacramento area...and the bay and the Sacramento area are the two places I've lived in, and I like that. But even "areas" aren't all that isolated from others.
Yea, but I guess I can just sleep a lot Saturday, though I'd rather not do that, but as it is now 1:22am, I seem to be in a pattern, because I've been waking between 5 and 7 anyhow, at least I'm not changing my sleep schedule. The only problem is I have an early St. Paddy's day party on Friday which means I'll be out late, so I'll have to force myself to get up early Saturday and then just go to bed early Saturday night. I doubt I'll succeed, but we'll see.
