Yesterday, I spent a delightful morning with Em and Bron. We ate brunch at Joey's on Santa Monica, went hiking up to Sunset Boulevard, browsed BookSoup, and in between discussions of comics and Comic-Con the subject of Things I'm Done With came up.

These aren't things I necessarily hate -- these are just things I'm kinda tired of, see all the time, and would enjoy not seeing anymore. They include:
  • Yellow squash
  • Subquality romantic comedies
  • Bad web design
  • Reinforcement of gender stereotypes in any media
  • Ben Stiller
  • That milkshake song.
  • Cigarette smoke.

I would like to replace these things with:

  • Fresh green beans
  • Dead Again, which I finally saw this weekend and really enjoyed (Mom, you would love it)
  • Five uninterrupted hours during which I can design a website for Nicky and Bryan
  • A Friends of Lulu membership
  • Jon Stewart
  • "Afternoon Delight" by the Starland Vocal Band
  • Coconut-scented hand lotion.

But that's just me. What are you done with?
