Somewhere sometime ago I had some time that Id use to complain about things…
I dunno if I’ve just been getting desensitized or just overloaded, but i guess im leaning toward the later.
Maybe I thinks blogs should be more about writting posts than testing the latest wordpress plugins.
Dunno.
In recent news, Why can’t Mos Def make good albums anymore (the ecstatic?! = garbage)? He’s had nothing but garbage since Black on Both Sides, I suggest piracy if you’re interested but suggest not even wasting the time.
What else has happened? I’ve seem some tragic toes (no photoshop used) i present the-to-toes-o-two:
I would wonder why one would risk side effects that include headache, diarrhea, or itching. but those talons make me understand using some Lamasil. Too bad I probably wouldn’t have noticed if it wasn’t a couple, i wonder if one gave it to the other?
Oh well.
Did you happen to see this article:
Wanted:’beauty-disadvantaged’
Pretty funny and shallow, politicians are hillarious…(like Nick Cannon)
Tell the ‘ugly’ kid to hide in the shadows like Bart’s twin.
I’ve been stumbling more than posting. Aging more than enjoying. Talking more than speaking. Working more than living.
The soul of our world is left to the likes of some rather nameless individuals. I guess Al Green’s carrying the torch.
The Olympics are in effect, Russia is going for the Gold.
Looks like I haven’t posted since I was pondering the probability of a certain death at the hands of a drunk pilot to the score played by Jane Austen.
Which reminds me of Santa Fe. If you’re white, artsy, and over 40 you should consider visiting Sante Fe New Mexico, it’s like a retirement home for silver-flakes…
The conversation was recently focused on hipsters, trust-fund vintage struggles, ten-speeds, vegan-ism, and the well kept un-kept.
I’ve ranted…
Our gov’t actually upholding the 4th amendment?
This common sense requirement allows parents to rest assured that their children will not be stripped and searched without their knowledge or participation for allegedly giving another student the equivalent of two Advils.
REDDING V SAFFORD UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT
Crazy that the ruling wasn’t unanimous, but 6-5. I can’t believe 5 judges were actually okay with this. WTF is wrong with people?
On Wednesday the Senate approved a bill that expands the government’s wiretapping powers and also grants retroactive immunity to the telecoms that assisted with the illegal wiretapping done on suspected terrorists in America without a warrant after 9/11.
There is nothing to fear in the bill, said Senator Christopher S. Bond, the Missouri Republican who was a lead negotiator, “unless you have Al Qaeda on your speed dial.”
Bull-fucking-shit. Ever hear of McCarthyism? How about the House Committee on Un-American Activities? Terrorism is a very broad fucking term and can be used to describe just about anything. I wouldn’t put it past members of the RIAA or MPAA to demonize filesharers as terrorists since they are essentially a threat to their markets. Next thing you know, they’ll use their money to grease the wheels of the government to create new laws for the enforcement of copyright theft. Oh wait, they did that already.
The system is clearly broken and all people worry about is not being able to buy some fucking tacos from a roach coach, whether or not they’ll be able to buy the new iPhone tomorrow or that somebody on the internet is hating on Bow Wow. Fuck the iPhone. Fuck Bow Wow. Fuck the taco trucks.
Obama voted in favor of the bill as well. Fuck him too.
So riding in an airplane is one of life’s necessary evils. I try my best to indulge as a glamorous drunk should but none the less its is an arduous process. Of course I only fly coach (first class dies too, they might be first) I figure I should minimize costs. So I’ve managed to cramp 6’4” into isle 47 seat E; 3 beers & a gin and tonic later (non-sapphire) the turbulence has subsided and the diversion has reached its ending. I watched some Sony Pictures Classics release called the Jane Austen Book Club and unless your life’s dream is to build a time machine so that you can have the pleasure of meeting Jane Austen I suggest skipping it. (it would be good if your unethical and writing some required paper and want to re-iterate someone else’s feelings about one of her characters) I don’t like Jane Austen. I wont say hate but when attempting to read Pride and Prejudice for some class I fell asleep three times trying to watch the movie. After the ‘A’ on the paper (lets hear it for community college) I still try not to say hate about Jane Austen. So they made the passion of the Christ equivalent dedicated to Jane Austen, it is a terribly cliché chick flick (starring jimmy smitts –damn he needs work/reality) where Jane Austen’s work is not so subtly emulated and every damn character in the movie ends the film saying, “read Jane Austen”. And guess what cures every ones relationship woes…’a lil’ jane austen’. I left the film (well no I was stuck on a plane watching it) thinking wait I read Jane Austen a while ago, why are my always soon to be ex-relationships inevitably doomed…oh yeah that’s right I didn’t read I watched the movie.
Planes and Jane Austen ain’t right. Oh yeah I don’t like Marky Mark- or Mark Wahlberg’s acting, and I don’t like the show Entourage. The Wire was good. And Little Bow-Wow still sucks and if you need proof check the album cover with him and Omarion (who sucks equivalently).
Oh and if you don’t like anything I write on here please hit ALT+F4 and then hit the space bar quickly….if your using a mac, well I dunno do something with that one mouse button & spend some more money on the revolution/movement.
Some would like to think that I am negative towards shifty corporations and critical of everything so I made a list of some of the corporately owned things that I like:
1. American Express
American Express is the card of champions. Their customer service is on point, they have exclusive member deals (mywishlist.com), and when you call them for help you hardly ever get sent off-shore (if at all). Today I called Amex and they reduced my APR and reversed two finance charges, after losing my wallet they overnighted me a replacement card last Saturday. To make things even better they cut me a check every year for cash back on purchases that I would have had to make anyway (i.e. gas, bills, etc.) its to the point now where if a store doesn’t take Amex i really should not even shop there.
2. Costco
Costco has everything you need want to buy except homes. Despite changes they still have one of the best return policies in retail & they’ve been selling Hot Dogs for $1.50 for the past 24 years!
3. The Better Business Bureau?
A place (albeit biased) where you can take a step towards getting some rights as a consumer. Through the BBB I have received a refund and a rebate that would have otherwise been lost to the hands of greedy unscrupulous companies, despite their process being slow and not the most effective.
Give me your children.
U.S. leads the world in child incarceration Nice. At least in the developing world they put kids to work, here we make them fellons so they can’t work.
Tragic Comedy: reminds me of a song though.
