Herrow! I'm Taylor, but you can call me Gompers (everyone does anyway). I go to UT Austin for computer science. I'm 19, which is the oldest I've ever been. I live on the internet, so if you want to contact me, you've got lots of options.

Roger Ebert is a Badass
I’m… confused. Is this a copy-paste mishap, or something far more sinister? (via chattycathy) -
I'm not racist, but
That phrase is usually a prefix for a clearly prejudiced statement.
This bothers me.
No offense, but…

Hmm, I do this all the time. Bad habit. (via somethingchanged) -
Celebrating our nation’s independence one beer at a time
I don’t think it counts as celebrating independence if you’re drinking Heineken ;)

Daily Notions
The surefire way to improve at something is to do it, so I’m starting a blog entitled “Daily Notions,” in which I write one opinion article, big or small, each day.
Here is today’s post, haphazardly thrown together at 2 AM Pacific Time.
@Gompr, you owe me for your drunken ramblings, so you’re going to help me make this site a little more legit than a livejournal account. An unthemed livejournal account, at that. Don’t worry, work will be minimal. :)
i like this idea.
(did you adjust for inflation?)
Interesting idea, supported by some back-of-the-napkin math, but perhaps one fatal flaw: nothing binds people to seeing fireworks. If they wanted to participate in other activities, they would. Plus, fireworks have 233 years of traditional inertia.
(Sorry, you know I like to play devil’s advocate.)
As for the design work, bring it!

It’s true, it does get funnier.

This is an old school photo for sure. (via mauvelous) -

Somehow managed to talk our way into a club that was ‘by list only’.
Said club was also over 21. The bouncers clearly knew that we were 19 and 18 - we told them.Of course you got in, you’re a pair of gorgeous girls for Christ’s sake! (via mashburger.: Tonight, we;) -

Ladies, (and gay dudes)
The next time you wanna complain about needing a tan, just keep poor Julianne Moore in mind.
Poor thing. She’s so white I think I can see through her.
Holy hell. Is this photo doctored in some way? She’s white as a sheet. A pasty, white sheet.

Becoming Minimalist
I had a thought last night that I wanted to wake up this morning and get rid of 75% of the ‘stuff’ that I own. […]
How do you start to get rid of these things?
Get some sort of external storage. The basement, a small rental storage unit, your parents’ place, or New Jersey. The less convenient it is to access, the better.
Put nearly everything you own there. Leave out only what you’d pack if you were going on a trip for 2 weeks.
From that point forward, remove only what you need, as you need it, from storage. You’ll almost never need to do this.
After a year, get rid of everything that’s still in storage.
This is how I think about all of my possessions, all the time.

we updated the song to something even more appropriate.
Although I don’t have any audio currently (so I can’t comment on how good or bad this YTMND is), I was just talking about riding a dolphin. Cosmic coincidence.

This photo is called “Proof” because this guy (David Danby) is so awesome that my friends didn’t believe I was actually hanging out with him.
Plus, him and I have the exact same sense of humor.
Additionally, he is part of a great band called Pet Hospital. Check ‘em out, and buy their “Dry Bones” album because it kicks ass.
