It is possible that I scrap looking for pics for Slackers on the internet all together and simply photo source images of Vanna’s ridiculous cat Simon from now on. She sent me this one with the caption “Why the long pause…” If you’ve never heard that joke, it’s hilarious. A polar bear walks into a bar and orders a rum……..and coke. The bartender says “Why the big pause?” Haha! I die every time I hear it. Anyway, Vanna put the punch line to very good use in my opinion. Hey, Read More…

OK, it’s seriously 100 degrees outside so I think for your own good you need to be indoors clicking on these internet links. This is the one time where a rheeldaze post may be responsible for saving your life. You’re welcome. Thank Christ! I can only hope Groupon is next. Lists like this are sometimes annoying because they’re like lets all agree on how cool we are by pretending to make fun of ourselves but I love the Pat Keirnan reference so here you go. Disney princesses turn deadly. #2 Read More…

Because slacking off can be hard work. Let me do it for you. Welcome to a special Monday edition of Slackers. I bring this to you at the beginning of the week because if you’re any kind of a true American you should be too sluggish from stuffing your face full of processed pork products and PBRs to concentrate on anything more involved than videos of flash mobs. I pretty much spent all day yesterday like Vanna’s cat Simon up there, only engaging my muscles when the threat of plummeting Read More…

We’ve finally got some sun! Make the most of it by staying inside all day and looking at these links. It’ll be sunny tomorrow too. Pace yourself. Did they really have to take a poll to figure this out? I didn’t realize teaching could be so much fun. Now I want to quit my job, if only to torment school children. I love getting the inside scoop on different industries. Read this before you book your next room. The one of Madonna is so airbrushed she looks like an avatar Read More…

Oh my God, I totally need a Slackers day. I worked a whole three shifts in a row this week because I had to cover for a girl who was getting her citizenship and now I feel like if I try to get out of bed too quickly I’ll risk breaking a hip. This is when I wish I had a roommate or a boyfriend or even a kid because I’m too beat to make it to the kitchen to fetch the menus. Me and my brother were so lazy when Read More…

The internet is starting to run out of adorably lazy animals for me to use as Slackers mascots. My cat doesn’t do shit all day (I say that like I expect to come home and find him doing Tae Bo) so if I’m ever really in trouble, I’ve got about a thousand photos of him sleeping in various plush corners of my apartment but who wants to see that? Well apparently I do since my memory card is nearly at capacity. Anyways, what the hell are you even doing reading Read More…

I can’t tell if that sloth is being lazy or if the simple act of hanging onto something is the most amount of energy a sloth is capable of exerting. Either way, they don’t really do much which makes them perfect Slackers mascots. In fact, I just read that sloths will sleep up to 23 hours a day, thus making me feel pretty damn good about my stunted productivity levels lately. Anyway, here’s some links and some more true facts about sloths. Don’t look at this if you’re hungover. I Read More…

Talk about slacking. I’m writing this during the commercials of a Vikings marathon. I guess it’s a good show because like ah…duh, Vikings. But on the other hand, I’m getting the sense that these guys were kind of dicks. So I’m torn between wanting to have all of their little Viking babies and hoping each of them dies a slow and bloody death for killing those harmless British monks. On second thought, no. No, I don’t think I’m torn at all. Oh right, links: Not that I will be getting anything from Read More…

I’m exhausted! This whole week was beautiful which means that every day you have to be all carpe diem and go sit on a patch of grass, which I did twice. Now it’s raining though, thank Christ, and we get to chill out for ten seconds in between the sun basking and frozen yogurt pursuits. Here are some fun links to help you recoup from a hectic start to spring: Sometimes I think I need to stop looking at pictures of things that I desperately want but can’t have but then Read More…

Ooooh! I got some good ones for you this week. You might as well just call it a day. Enjoy. I was borderline on switching my Facebook pic to the gay equal rights sign but not having changed my profile photo once in six years is something I’ve grown proud of, so I give you this instead. I’ve been desperate for a treehouse for as long as I can remember, however trees are hard to come by where I live. Maybe one day I can make a fire escape house to Read More…
