Playing With The Boys
I’ll take a moment to apologize for this one in advance.
A little girl asked her mother: “Can I go outside and play with the boys?”
Her mother replied: “No, you can’t play with the boys, they’re too rough.”
The little girl thought about it for a few moments and asked: “If I can find a smooth one, can I play with him?”
Now That, That Is The Face Of Trouble Waiting To Happen
Every time I watch Jesse & Festus wrestle, I can’t help but wonder about something. If the whole point of the Festus character is that whenever a bell rings he either transforms into a crazed madman or back to being nice and calm, why doesn’t somebody on the other team just ring the bell when they’re about to lose and then pin him? And if they’re ever being beaten down after a match while the bell is ringing almost nonstop, what happens then? Does Festus keep changing back and forth really really fast while he’s getting his ass kicked? And in a situation like that, how would he ever be able to save himself short of throwing one lucky punch and knocking somebody out before it rings again and he has to turn nice?
I can’t help but think that the moment creative pulls the trigger on the bell ringing thing [which I’m sure they will sooner or later], the gimmick is dead. I know that wrestling requires you to sometimes suspend disbelief to an amazing degree, but once you expose the one major flaw in the character here, there’s no way it can be taken seriously again. As soon as one person figures it out on TV, anybody who doesn’t do it is an idiot, which then leaves you with even more characters that the audience has no reason to see as important. Unless WWE has a really good way around this [and I’d be surprised if they do], they’ve written themselves into a bigtime corner here.
I feel bad for Jesse & Festus, because when you look at WWE’s history of failed ideas, it’s usually only a matter of time before the people who have to execute them and deal with what’s written for them wind up fired. Hopefully that won’t happen here, but if ever there was a setup for being wished the best in your future endeavours, this is it.
Fishy License Plates
I was downtown with a friend, and we saw a car drive by with a personalized license plate that said “hot tuna”.
Uh, what could that possibly mean? I know what the sick part of me thinks it means, but is there any good reason why someone would put that on their car? *gag*. Or am I just the sickest person around for jumping to that conclusion?
For Your Listening Pleasure
I don’t know how the site has survived for so long without getting busted for some kind of stupidity by the film industry, but hey, more power to ’em. There is a site called ListenToAMovie.com. What amazes me is that sighties actually like this site! They want to listen to movies at work and while they’re driving! I understand audiobooks, but why would someone who is used to watching movies actually enjoy listening to them? I mean we’re used to only getting the audio part, so can often figure out the visuals, but I can see that as being quite frustrating for someone who isn’t familiar with the old fill in the blanks game. But hey, that’s pretty sweet. So, listen to a movie some time.
Thanks, That Really Narrows It Down.
This story isn’t all that special, except for the oh so helpful description provided by police.
He is described as white with defined facial features and acne marks on his face. He is between 17-24 years old, stands about 6 feet tall and weighs about 170 pounds.
Defined facial features? What does that even mean? And I’m sure there are quite a few pimply-faced kids out there. This description is about as good as describing someone as non-white. If you define some of those features for us, you might narrow the suspect pool a bit.
Does He Have A Death Wish?
One of these days, Jackie Bibby is gonna die. Why? Because he has a thing for setting records with rattlesnakes. Crawling into sleeping bags with them, holding them by their tails in his mouth, sitting in tubs with them. Look, dude, you have a zillion world records. Quit while you’re ahead…and still alive!
So This Is What A girl’s Innocence Is Worth?
Ok, so a bunch of boys can force a girl to have oral sex with them, piss on her, set her hair on fire, tape the whole thing and distribute it, and only get probation and rehab? Oh, and this isn’t the first time these boys have done similar things? Riiiiight! I hate stories like these. The judge’s words are full of venom and disgust, but the actions don’t match. Rage, rage, oh rage!
In Scotland, They Don’t Screw Around!
Wow! Years ago, in Scotland, there must have been a lot of sex-offenders who weren’t caught before they did something ghastly horrible. Why else would they throw people on the registry for screwing a bike, and now getting it on with pavement. At least this one, I can half understand because it was in full view of a female cab driver, so he could have been flashing her or something. But my my, you don’t just have to assault people anymore, screwing things works too.
Stupid Trends In Stupid Emails
I’ve noticed a trend lately with those stupid virus hoax emails that I get from time to time. Steve says this has been going on for years, but apparently I have been kept oblivious to it until now. They claim at the top of them that they already checked snopes, and this virus is real.
Newsflash, friends and acquaintances. When you hear those words, you might wanna double-check Snopes, because probably you’ll find out that it is the furthest thing from real that is possible. Really, it’s not that hard to check snopes. They have a pretty rockin’ cool search box right at the top, and if you type keywords from the email into it, you’ll likely find what you’re looking for. And, if that doesn’t work, they have categories you can sift through.
Everybody! You can’t rely on others to do your research for you. If you get too lazy and allow others to feed you the information, they may start to feed you lies. Use your brain, look around, think for yourself!
