My name is Dauthan and this is my tumblelog. I try to post something brief about once a day. You can also find me here:

Probably the funniest thing I'll hear all weekend

Brayton: Hey, you wanna go open housing with us?
Zac: No, I already know that if I ever get a girlfriend or anything, it'll be at Comic-Con.

Names have been changed to protect the innocent

Actual conversation between two seniors (and yes, Sue grew up in the States, didn't study abroad, and is social). I thought everyone would have heard this by now...
Jane: Beer me the number.
Sue: Did you just say beer me the number?
Jane: mmhmm.
Sue: What does that mean?
Jane: Just give me the number.

@MandaHud is hilarious, part 3

Email Subject: NIV Water Proof Bibles (from TU Announcements)
Amanda: ...at least now I know that if I ever want to go white water rafting while reading my Bible, the book store can hook me up!

@MandaHud is hilarious, part 2, featuring MegDubs

Me: I haven't started reading "But Don't All Religions Lead to God?" yet.
Amanda: Oh, I can save you some time and spoil that one for you, too - they don't.
Megan W.: Yeah, the answer to all the questions in the first half of the book is "no" and the answer to all the questions in the second half is "Jesus."

Memory Lapse

Me: Ultimate on Friday was some of the most fun I've had in awhile.
Tyler: You remember you just got engaged recently, right?
Me: Yes. This is the most fun I've had since I got engaged. And that was stressful, too. I drove eight hours and was awake for twenty on four hours sleep, plus, y'know, getting engaged is stressful.

Beck Interviews Will Ferrell

Will Ferrell: Did you have that phase as a kid? "Uh, let's tape record ourselves."
Beck: (laughs) I had an entire era of my childhood where I was obsessed with cassette tape recorders.
Will Ferrell: Yeah we did too. Because you have the microphone and then you do fake shows. You do funny voices. You'd also just log hours of strange conversation as a kid and just play it back. But I remember that was a common theme: "I know, let's tape record ourselves." "Great!" But what a simple joy! (laughing) It's like what, exactly? Why was it so fun?
Beck: I know. And there are probably many, many kids that were doing the same thing. Whoever invented the cassette technology was not developing it for the purpose of 9 year-olds to create their own imaginary radio stations, which is what we did. Me and my friends were obsessed with the Muzak station. They don't really have Muzak stations anymore and I was mourning the loss of that recently. I was remembering that when I was a kid they had these Muzak stations which were straight orchestral instrumental arrangements of pop hits of the day. There were no vocals, it was all instrumental. But they did have a DJ and we thought the DJ's were great because they were really mellow. They were really, really sedated, really relaxed. And there would be Muzak covers of the most inappropriate songs too.
Will Ferrell: (Laughing) Like "Hot Child in the City".
Beck: And "Hit Me With Your Best Shot" but it would be an oboe doing (both simultaneously make sound of oboe playing "Hit me with your best shot") And then all the typical power ballads...
Will Ferrell: (laughing) A little Pat Benetar.
Beck: Some Juice Newton. We used to use the songs as a little musical bed for us to sing over.
Will Ferrell: That's a great idea.
Beck: And our station was called "K-Mellow".
