Odd Holidays

Hey Dwellers! Guess what today is. It's International Spank Out Day. I think, in honor of the holiday, we should take a page out of Ron's hand. . .book by whippin' it out and. . . OOPS! Sorry this is a G rated blog.

Speaking of Ron, I believe his month starts tomorrow. So, you all had better be nice to him. Happy Asian Pacific American Heritage Month!

Ugh!

I have a complaint. My normal commute of fifteen minutes took me an hour and fifteen today. It wasn't because of an accident or volume. It was because of protesting. And, not just any protesting. Someone climbed up a construction crane, hung a banner from the crane, and then stayed up on the crane.

You know, crap like that does not make me sympathetic to your cause. Especially if it's keeping me from getting to work. The sad part is that it was supposed to bring attention to an important cause, global warming. Although, slowing up traffic and causing thousands of cars to sit idling doesn't seem to me to help the cause.

Thank you. Discuss.

HIGHlarious

Have you ever looked up something on YouTube, and then ended up clicking on a related video, and then another, and then another, until you've clicked on and watched so many videos that you end up on a video that has nothing to do with your original search? Well, I did that recently and ended up on this recording of someone pranking a telemarketer. Not sure how old this is, but dayamn funny. Check it out.

DOHnuts

Today I saw what I think is one of the silliest commercials I've ever seen. In the commercial, some kids are laying around watching TV. The TV starts to suck the kids in, kinda like the tractor beam on Star Trek. Then, their father comes into the room and breaks the TV's hold on the kids by offering them Dunkin Donuts. What the hell is that teaching us? Don't sit around watching TV! Eat some donuts instead!

It kinda reminded me of those old Hostess donut commercials, where the family would sit down to a huge platter of donuts for breakfast.

Idol Chatter

Damn that American Idol for running over time yesterday. I was at a union meeting last night, so I had to rely on my DVR to record Idol. Well, since the show ran over, it cut off the last performance by Adam Lambert, who is my favorite, by the way. Fortunately, I also watch Fringe, which comes on after Idol. So, I did get to see his performance. Unfortunately, I missed the end of Fringe because it, of course, started late. So, I don't know how it ended. UGH!

Speaking of Idol, the whole "boo Simon every time he speaks the truth" thing is getting tired and old already. SHUT UP!

Also, I was OK with the four judge thing at the beginning of the season, but now I think Paula may have been right. It does slow down the flow of the show. Maybe if there were only three judges, I WOULDN'T HAVE MISSED THE END OF FRINGE!

Thank you. Discuss.

Addictive Commercials

I cannot get this song out of my head.
