What kind of things make you want to shake your head? I think it would be kind of interesting to see what people think about the things that don't really annoy them, but make you wonder why in the hell that would happen?

For instance, why the hell does Brett Favre keep coming back over and over again after he retires?

Anyway, I've got a friend who wanted nothing more than to get married and have a family growing up. When he graduated and moved out, he married the first woman who would take him. The sad thing is, she's ugly as sin, Biggest Loser fat and came from Mexico. She used him to get her US citizenship. Which I have no problem with, but it still makes me laugh.

And the guy's in the military! He could have any bimbo who loves a man in uniform he wanted.

To me, the moral of the story is: if love is blind, I'll stay single, thank you very much.

Well, I think Brett Farve

Well, I think Brett Farve comes back each year after retiring to either find a whole new way of ending his career (Sending pictures like that to a journalist is definetely a new one...). Or just to try not to finish on an interception yet again.


I'll edit in something that confuses me when I can think of something

I got to watch Tavaris

I got to watch Tavaris Jackson play high school ball. We're from the same city. I was thrilled for him when he went to Minnesota. But Brett Favre ruined his career. The time Jackson spent off the field really inhibited his ability to perform when Favre wasn't able to play.

A co-worker of mine from

A co-worker of mine from college is a "new media" guru for a publishing company.

Yesterday, he Tweeted that he synched his Facebook and Google+ accounts through Chrome. Basically, every time he updates his Facebook status, his Google+ account redirects and updates the status there, as well.

I wanted to respond to him, "Dude, I think you're missing the fucking point."

People in general really

People in general really confuse me. Even the simplest fact can be distorted or misconstrued when people want to. The whole debt crisis thing for example, how people think that America defaulting on its national debt would be fine and nothing would happen. And it's not a big "what if" that you can project a dozen different consequences but don't know which would actually happen, we knew for certain that civil servants would lose jobs, Social Security checks wouldn't be cut, the nation's credit score would go down, therefore raising interest rates and other issues, and then there would be more effects that you can't predict as well. So either Republicans were being stone dumb, deaf and blind to the potential problems, or they were willing to let Americans suffer for their agenda.


Pyromania is another thing, I like fire for its benefits as much as anyone. I like cooked food, really I do! But how does a mental disorder like this work, it's not just a desire to see things destroyed, it's a very specific desire to see things destroyed with and only with fire. I mean think about Office Space, where they destroyed the printer with a sledge hammer, that actually makes sense. It's an object of frustration, and you get a viseral sensation of destroying it with physical force. Fire is just... there. Breaking things for you. Usually not even things you have a grudge against, just whatever is dry and burnable. I guess it falls under wanton vandalism but even that I think usually has a purpose, like making a statement, leaving a mark, or attacking a representation of something you have a personal grudge against. It's kinda like the 3 step joke of mental disorders, 1. Set things on fire, 2. . . ., 3. Profit!

I don't hate anyone. I never

I don't hate anyone. I never have. I don't understand it. But there's one person who flirts with the line.

My aunt.

Every once in a while, she pretends to do something nice for me. Today she called and asked if she could order a pizza for me. Well, yeah. Pizza is good. I told her what I wanted: pineapple and pepperoni with extra sauce. And I requested she order it from Domino's because I'm sick of Papa Johns. She said that would be fine.

Pizza gets here and it's covered in banana peppers and Italian sausage. It's Papa Johns.

Now, it's not that I dislike banana peppers. But not on a pizza. Also, if you know me, you know I hate Italian sausage about as much as ketchup, eggs or onions (which is a lot).

I wouldn't think anything of it, had she not done this before. The last time she was in a "giving mood," and ordered a pizza for me, she requested an extra bake, and put in the instructions "cook once, top pizza, cook again." It was burnt as shit and I could hardly eat it.

Uuuuugh. There's more to this story than just that. This just set me off today. I'm convinced she does this shit on purpose just to piss me off.

Final Fantasy Mystic Quest

Hey Mr. K Final Fantasy Mystic Quest is kind of like an RPG for a 5 year old.  I'm not saying anything about your ability or anything.  I'm just saying that there really is no story, it's basically you go here get a stronger weapon kill a boss.   Rinse and repeat.

That may be the argument that people in the US have for the game, but that's not why Square made it.

It was made because the Japanese believe the US is made up of knuckle draggers who couldn't play an RPG unless it was like Mystic Quest. Regardless of FF1 and Dragon Warrior being balls hard. That's part of the reason why FF4 has a hard type and an easy type.

I ordered Yotsuba&! Vol. 10

I ordered Yotsuba&! Vol. 10 from Chapters and unfortunately this looks like the last book I will be ordering from them since they no longer call you when the book is in, it is now up to you to come in or phone them to see if it has arrived.
