The Dark Side Of The Rainbow

The Dark Side of the Rainbow is a perceived effect created by playing the 1973 Pink Floyd concept album Dark Side of the Moon simultaneously with the classic 1939 film The Wizard of Oz. Depending on the version of the film used (since different formats run at different speeds), parts of the film and the music appear to correspond with each other to a degree some have found surprising. The music video-like experience created by synchronizing the two is also sometimes referred to as "The Dark Side of Oz," or "The Wizard of Floyd."

Fans have compiled more than 100 moments of interplay between the film and album—including further links that occur if the album is repeated through the entire film. Some suggest, however, that people who want to try the experience for the first time do so without first reading a definitive list in order to make the event more surprising.The Dark Side Of The Rainbow is some crazy shit.

Woke up on the wrong side of the bed

Alt: Got up on the wrong side of the bed. (Past Tense)
An expression that is typically used to describe a grumpy or irritable person, especially when the reason for their unhappiness is unknown.

It can also be used to describe when somebody wakes up in a bad mood which then lasts all day, possibly because they didn't get enough sleep or had an unpleasant dream the night before.

The phrase dates back to Ancient Rome, where it was considered bad luck to get out of bed from the left side, which itself originated in a very old superstition saying that everything related to the left-hand side was inherently unlucky. The modern English expression reflects that myth with a tongue-in-cheek play on words, suggesting that a grouchy person must have gotten out of bed on the "wrong" side, as opposed to the "right" side.

"What's with Wendy? She seems annoyed about something."
"I don't know, maybe she got up on the wrong side of the bed today."

"You're acting like real jerk!"
"Sorry, I just woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning. I'm in a bad mood, but it's not your fault."

The Far Side

Easily the best comic strip ever made, however, Calvin and Hobbes is a close second. Written by Gary Larson, it is unfortunate that many people don't pay attention to The Far Side because some (Or most) of the jokes are difficult to grasp and require a semi-insane mind to laugh at.

One of the most controversial Far Side comics had alligators gathered around an old-fashioned washtub with a caption that read "Bobbing for poodles". Little did most people know that Larson had another caption in mind: "Bobbing for babies".

Lower East Side

Use to be one of the toughest section in New York City, well, one of the most dangerous part in the US, if you was an outsider of course or brought problems. Use to be a REAL neighborhood with REAL New Yorkers where every race, religion and creed lived together. Yeah, it was a real neighborhood with a tough, working class melting pot who never gave a shit about how much money you had, what you wear, or the color of your skin. Until it got replaced by swarms of snobby, superficial yuppies, hipsters, etc... from Smallville fucking, USA who really believes the world revolves around them and everyone should bow down to them, of course till they realize, after they get their asses kicked, ridiculed, or cursed out, it just doesn't work that way. If one really THINKS about it, the real reason why they all showed up was because of what they saw on the movies, TV shows, songs, and music videos and tried to live that life, a real, sleazy, gritty, New York life, (NYC was always like that till the late 90's.) Till it was packaged and put on the silver screen for everyone else to see) however, they can't take into consideration that it was clearly THEY, that destroyed the very fabric and culture of what this great city once stood for. I'm DEAD SERIOUS.

Friend: What happened to Lower East Side????

A yuppie, then a hipster walks by on a cell. "Yeah, I live in NYC"

Me: That's what happened!!!

RIP: NYC (The greatest home on earth; The home of the Braves and REAL Nu Yawkas.)

For those haters, jealous, envious people; I don't care if you give a thumbs down because all New Yorkers know its the truth. Just ASK them.

The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence

Refers to the way we tend to look at other people’s lives and other things that we don't have in general through rose colored glasses.

Comes from the idea of looking at a neighbours lawn and seeing it as better looking, healthier and overall greener then your own when in reality you’re just ignoring anything negative about it and downplaying everything positive about your own.

Friend#1: You’re so lucky, you went to a great college, have money and you’re so smart and will probably accomplish more by the time you’re 30 then I will in my entire life.

Friend#2: Are you serious? I’ve always envied you. People expect so much out of me. I’ve never been able to have a life because of studying and other schoolwork. If I get less then an A, people freak out like I got an F. I may accomplish that much, but with all the pressure on me I’ll probably be insane by the time I’m 35. In so many ways, I wish I could just be a regular guy with normal expectations and a normal life.

Friend#1: Wow, I honestly never looked at it that way. I guess it's true that the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence.
