There are people on the net that
have nothing better to do with their time then be nasty to other
people online. They post rude comments, spend hours a day talking
about sites they hate so much, that they well, spend hours a day
talking about them. (lame) They mock the owners and posters for
their opinions and their right to free speech. They expect everyone
to fit into their narrow-minded little world view or else they throw
a temper tantrum.
To these people I say
grow up.
Here's a bit of info people...the
web is a HUGE place. If you don't like what I say here, or who I am,
or what I do, or talk about, or what I look like, or the color of my
hair, or whatever asinine thing you dwell on, go somewhere else.
It's really, really easy. Honest. You just click the little "x" in
the corner of your browser and *poof* the offending, big, mean and
nasty site has disappeared.
I pay for this site. It's mine.
That means I can use it for whatever the hell I want to. Don't like
it if I'm bitching about something in my life? Oh fucking well. Go
somewhere else. Think I'm stupid for expressing my thoughts? Too
fucking bad, don't read them. Somewhere along the line, someone
forgot this simple fact: Live and let live Don't like me,
cool, fine, whatever, I don't care. This journal is NOT for
you. It's for me. I'm not in it for popularity or fame or anything
stupid like that. I write it because I need to write and express
myself and get things out of my head sometimes. So read or don't, it
doesn't matter, but don't waste my time (or yours) bitching about
it.

Stupid Commercial Everytime I see those KFC commercials, I swear, I want to throw something at the screen. They're just so. damned. stupid. I mean, above and beyond normal commercial stupidity.
example commercial: Kid is on phone with mom, asking if he can stay over at the friend's house for dinner. Mom doesn't believe the story, asks to speak with friend's mom who confirms that yes, he's really invited for dinner.
Ok, normal enough, right? Except the tagline then says, "A real meal on a weeknight?" in this shocked and amazed voice.
What...?? First off, I find it hard to believe that no one in the country cooks dinner or prepares some sort of meal ever for any reason during the week. I mean, seriously. I understand time constraints but I can't believe every single family eats take out every single day of the year. (How expensive would that get?!)
Secondly, even if this were the case; even if no one ever used their kitchen for anything but a place to store plates, KFC can not ever be confused for a "real meal." It's KFC for crying out loud! Seriously, it makes as much sense as the McDonald's "healthy" commercials.
For example...
Little daughter is in her room trying on dress-up clothes and wants to pick her own outfit to wear out. Mom says that she doesn't mind her daughter's choice because - and I quote - what goes in the tummy is more important than what goes on top of it
Seriously. WTF? How can they even say that with a straight face? Taking the kid to McDonald's is an example of important and healthy food? I know advertising is all lying by it's very nature, but come on...! They're really pushing it lately.
(And yes, I apparently do spend too much time watching tv. It's just the dumbing down and the beyond absurd ads these days blows my mind. Ok, that and I haven't had anything else of interest to blog about.)
