In the early 90s in Chicago, only two things were clear. We wanted to write and perform comedy, and we knew we would look better in our 40s than we did in our 20s. - Amy Poehler

“Well, ain’t that America, something to see baby…little pink houses…”

This Is All Kinds Of Wrong of the Day: A Muslim woman has filed a discrimination lawsuit against Southwest Airlines for allegedly removing her from a San Jose-bound flight after she told a Verizon representative on the phone “I’ve got to go.”

Huh? Read on:

Irum Abbassi, who was “readily identifiable as Muslim by what she wore,” wrote in her complaint that a flight attendant thought she heard her say “it’s a go,” and called security to escort Abbassi off the plane.

Once deplaned, a TSA agent quickly determined that Abbassi did not pose a risk and allowed her to re-board. Except that she couldn’t: The captain reportedly barred her re-entry, claiming crew members were “uncomfortable” with her presence.

Abbassi is suing for punitive damages.

“We went into Sean’s bedroom – and there was a kid there setting up an Apple computer that Sean had gotten as a present, the Macintosh model. I said that once some man had been calling me a lot wanting to give me one, but that I’d never called him back or something, and then the kid looked up and said, “Yeah, that was me. I’m Steve Jobs.” And he looked so young, like a college guy. And he told me that he would still send me one now. And then he gave me a lesson on drawing with it. It only comes in black and white now, but they’ll make it soon in color. And then Keith and Kenny used it. Keith had already used it once to make a T-shirt, but Kenny was using it for the first time, and I felt so old and out of it with this young whiz guy right there who’d helped invent it.”

- The late Andy Warhol, from a 1984 diary entry, describes meeting a young Steve Jobs as he set up a brand new Apple Computer for birthday boy Sean Lennon (as in “Beautiful Boy” Sean Lennon). Amazing.

From Andy Warhol’s Tuesday, 9 October 1984 diary entry. It was Sean Lennon’s 9th birthday party. (via edp)

I love all the incredibly wonderful Steve Jobs stories that are coming out of the woodwork.

Feeling crafty? Turn duplicate copies of books into Halloween art….have I mentioned lately how much I LOVE Halloween. I wish it could be Halloween every month. Ha!…If only..

unconsumption:

Turn an old book into a “pumpkin.”

How-to details: Book Page Pumpkin Tutorial | Creations by Kara.

Caveat: Creative new uses for old books is a recurring theme here on Unconsumption; however, if you’ve got books you no longer want, but think could be of interest to other readers, consider giving them away (or swapping or selling them) instead of using them as raw material for Halloween decor or other art/craft projects!

Maybe it’s the antidepressants talking, but Alexa Chung—one of the beautiful people, obviously—would look more beautiful sans cigarette. An example of how once I make up my mind, I make up my mind: Only 5 months after smoking my last one I find them disgusting in every way and the thought of smoking one makes me gag. Much like the memory of the suckiness of childbirth works as a supplement to my birth control, remembering how shitty it felt to be tied like a prisoner to something as rotten as cigarettes similarly leaves me less than enthused about ever going that route again. Ever. Smoking sucks kids.

On the other hand (literally), I love her nails.

Ladies and gents, I sh** you not; this … whatever this is (no, smartasses, I KNOW what it is), can be found on Forsythe Avenue in Monroe, La. near Cormier’s Restaurant. I happened upon it one day as I was driving to work. Now we all know there are spraypainted markings placed by roadworkers everywhere. That may very well explain why this has not come to light sooner. However, I refuse to believe Monroe is inhabited by morons that could overlook this. All I have left to say is this: mine’s bigger
