cracking backs

Ok sooo initially I had a hilarious video of me cracking my girlfriends best friends back for this blog post, but for some reason blogger isn't letting me upload it so I'm gonna improvise by telling what happened in the video.

After the BLVD on Saturday, My girlfriend, Lizzy, and I decided to walk back to her apartment, which is on campus, with a couple other friends to keep the party going. One friend that came with us was Maddy Foster and she is one of Lizzy's best friends, but everyone just calls her Foster, well at least I do. So we get back to the apartment and Foster is complaining about her back. So naturally I jumped to the rescue and offered to crack her back, which she excepted in hopes of relief. Note that we may or may not all been heavily intoxicated, but anyways I went ahead and picked her up and shuck her up and down a few times, which by the way looked retarted in the video because her legs were flailing everywhere. I then dropped her from a normal height but for some reason when she landed she sling shoted back into me we then both flew back a good 5 feet into a glass lamp. Yes, we did shatter the lamp and almost flew out the window off a second story building, but it was all in good drunken fun :). 
 I may have not succeeded in cracking her back, but the incident did create one hell of a funny video.  I did learn a few things from this hilarious incident thou. First, avoid cracking peoples backs when your drunk. It seems like a fun harmless thing at the time but ITS NOT! Second, I learned that my friend Garrett is very sneaky because he took the video without anyone knowing and didn't show us until the next morning . And lastly, I learned that I might have a career in lamp repairs.

Helvetica

If you haven't notice yet, the majority of my blog posts are in Helvetica. That's because Helvetica is my favorite type of typeface!!!! So to show my love for Helvetica I've devoted my whole 24th blog post to it!!!                                    





Developed in 1957 by Max Miedinger with Eduard Hoffmann, Helvetica is widely used Sans Serif typeface that changed the game for the typography industry.





Dolphins Logo Crisis


I'm a die-hard Dolpins Football fan but the new logo just simply BLOWS. I'm sorry but I had to get this off my chest because its been on my mind since the start of the this season when they revealed it. Wheres the character..??? It's as boring as it could be. It doesn't even have eyes..their just slits. I thought this was a football team in America not China.
Ok kidding but you can see my frustration over this topic. 

The old Dolphins logo had it all: style, class, a clear representation of football with its signature "M" helmet, and it appealed to both children and adults.
I'm all for innovation, but in my opinion innovation can wait until someone designs a dolphin with a bit more personality.



Sexually attracted to food... maybe yes

Was looking through Buzzfeed articles the other day and this one caught my eye. Probably because all I think about is food and eat every 3 hours but I also wanted to acknowledge the creative and comic nature that went into making this so here it is on my blog.

A SHOUT OUT FOR SMORES

Smores are one of my favorite sweet treats. Besides the fact that they are insanely good, it brings back alot of memories of mine as a child. My brother, sister, and I would go crazy even if just hearing our parents say the words smores. Mhhmmmmmmmmmmm toasted smores and a warm campfire.... What's better than that???

  

Favorite Commercial

I really like this commercial. It played at last year's superbowl. Its interesting how a motor company manages to really touch people through a commercial.
