Titles Are Overrated
Categories: General
Written By: David
Keeping you people entertained is tiring, and today I’m definitely taking the easy way out by enumerating a few thoughts with no particular aim whatsoever.
I find the first two items on this list very overrated at the moment, although I don’t particularly dislike either one of them:
- Posh Spice
Posh Spice became famous because she’s pretty good looking for a British girl, and she was in some group that sang some songs and stuff. I know it’s a big deal that she just moved to LA and all that, but I’m tired of her disproportionate features and ninja-like wardrobe showing up everywhere. I do like that she has Scarry Spice’s back on the whole Eddie Murphy thing though, and hopefully they don’t run into each other during lunch at Ivy. - The iPhone
The iPhone is cool. It is. I’ve seen it, held it, and browsed it’s features because I live in a city where people take them out and play with them when their dogs don’t bring them enough attention. The thing is, even though it’s a cool gadget, there was all this hype about how people were going to wait for days in line for one and yet I know someone who walked into a store last Friday after work and bought one with no problem. Apple did a good job at making you think they were super rare just like Southwest does a good job at making you think they actually have flights for $39 that you might actually want. - You remember Nu Shooz, you just don’t want to admit it: http://youtube.com/watch?v=JYIj6YlmyaQ . It will be in your head for the rest of the day.
- Sometimes, it takes an artsy music video to remind you that it’s a wonderful, wonderful life (thanks, Bardot!): http://youtube.com/watch?v=iyfu_mU-dmo.
- I can’t find the video, but if anything is underrated, it’s the song “It’s So Serious” by Talk Talk.
- Someone sent me this joke the other day, and it might be the first time I’ve laughed at a joke that someone forwarded me:
A very confident James Bond walks into a bar and takes a seat next to a very attractive woman. He gives her a quick glance then casually looks at his watch for a moment.The woman notices this and asks, “Is your date running late?”"No,” he replies, “Q has just given me this state-of-the-art watch. I was just testing it.”The intrigued woman says, “A state-of-the-art watch? What’s so special about it?”
Bond explains, “It uses alpha waves to talk to me telepathically.”
The lady says, “What’s it telling you now?”
“Well, it says you’re not wearing any panties….”
The woman giggles and replies, “Well it must be broken because I am wearing panties!”
Bond smirks, taps his watch and says, “Bloody thing’s an hour fast.”
Good Night….
