Who is Pepsi Next supposed to appeal to? Even if it tastes just like regular Pepsi, there is a huge segment of the population, including myself, who will never try it because it has aspartame and sucralose. Other people, who are concerned about things like health and girth, won’t buy it because it has sugar. I’m not sure who the target market is supposed to be. I predict that Pepsi Next will be a colossal failure for Pepsi.

This is my current paper writing setup. I’m using AirParrot to extend my display to my TV, and using the bluetooth keyboard I bought to use with my HP touchpad. I don’t have a wireless mouse (oversight), but I’m getting along fairly well with keyboard shortcuts. This way I can spread all my notes out all over the couch instead of hunching over my dining table/desk. I’m still drinking coke zero/tea by the gallons, so it’s not totally different from last time.

What Is Your Email

Note from 2022 Rachel: The images are gone but I 100% know this was a bunch of screenshots from emails for the Other Rachel Barker Who Thinks She Has My Email Address. But I don’t remember what DrawSomething was.

Seriously. Figure out what your actual email address is. Stop this.

(Also I got an email from your AllState agent today. He wants to know how you and your family are doing. Maybe there’s some way I can work that into a DrawSomething picture.)

Just remembered that this law school thing is, like, a lot of work.

I’m Quitting Google Chrome

It eats up too much memory. When it’s running, it makes my whole (2008) Macbook feel slower. It stutters when browsing Google Reader. It makes every other application unusable when I’m watching Netflix. I don’t know what’s up, Google Chrome, but when Safari is outperforming you it’s time to figure out what you’re doing wrong.

Dear guy who just made my burrito:

…

Have you ever eaten one of the things you make all fucking day? You should try one. They are pretty good WHEN YOU ARE NOT WILLING YOURSELF THROUGH THE FUCKING EMPIRE OF SOUR CREAM TO ONLY TO END UP IN LETTUCE COUNTRY. …

In conclusion:

You’re the worst thing that has ever happened to the universe, you owe everyone everywhere an apology for this burritobomination, and I hope your babies look like monkeys.

I officially do not understand Pinterest.

I don’t get the appeal, or what its actual intended use is.

I might just give it up now.

Note from 2023 Rachel: I settled on “don’t”

I want to give pinterest a solid try, but I don’t want to detract from my tumblr feed; that is, I don’t want to post interesting things anywhere except tumblr, and I don’t want to cross-post. Anyone have any good suggestions for how to use pinterest?
