“The first time I ever recorded, which was into my boom-box, I was like, 'Wow, check that out.' It sounded great. The narcotic of it was so intense - it was pleasurable. I was like, 'You sound like a band.' Then I ended up spending the rest of my life trying to chase that initial high again.” TryingFirstsSoundLike YouBandFirst TimeBoxesSpendingIntenseChecksWowInitialsNarcotics Author:Ian MacKaye
“LinkedIn's got a little progress bar. It wants you to do things like sign up 10 of your friends. It does that near the end. At the beginning it's like, 'You put in your name. 20 percent progress! How about some other information?' People want to fill in that progress bar. They like to complete a task. They like to check a box.” PeopleWantLittlesDoeEndsNamesProgressInformationLike YouPercentTasksBoxesBarsChecksLinkedin Author:Jesse Schell

“I guess it's a bit like not claiming your brother at school. This kind of disowning of the thing that you're most like.

“I also love doing comedy. I just moved to L.A. last July. Before that, Vancouver is all about sci-fi, so I didn't get any comedy, whatsoever. But in L.A., people are like, "You don't look quirky enough," and I'm like, "I'm quirky. I'm the definition of quirky. How do you want me to look quirky." They have these little boxes that they put everyone in, so now I have to try to break the mold and get them to see me as being quirky.” PeopleWantTryingLooksLittlesEnoughLastsBreakComedyLike YouMovedDefinitionsBoxesSci FiWant MeJulyMoldYou Want MeQuirkyVancouverDo You Want Me Author:Tinsel Korey
“You need to just understand where the ball is and how to use your body. Timing your jump the right way is crucial. Learn how to use your body to shield the receiver and box him out, again, much like a rebound. Trying to beat a receiver to a ball can be a lot like you're posting him up. Rebounding is great practice because you can employ those skills - body position, leverage, timing - a lot more than you might in a football game or practice if the quarterback doesn't look your way.” IfsWayNeedsTryingLooksUseBodyMightGamesPracticePositionFootballLike YouSkillsBeatsBallsBoxesYour BodyCrucialTimingRight WayShieldsQuarterbackFootball GameReceiverRebound Author:Antonio Cromartie

“There was actually a camera on your face. I don't know so much about the animation process but the camera was in our face so it could get expressions from our faces that would eventually arrive on the gnomes. It almost felt like you were cheating at times because it was a wee bit too much fun. You were in that box on your own. Kelly [Asbury] was in Toronto, I was in LA, so I was just on my own.
