Fyrchk hates me. The Rules: 1. Go into your archive. 2. Find your 23rd post. 3. Find the fifth sentence (or closest to). 4. Post the text of the sentence in your blog along with these instructions. 5. Tag five other people to do the same. Here's my jewel, from my "Bad Eggs and Rotten Apples" post: "There are differing levels of disgruntlement, ranging from "this place sucks" to "I'mma kill ALL you motherfuckers!!!" Now, to spread this nugget o' joy to my friends: 1. Brit 2. Genevieve ('bout time I include you in my shenanigans) 3. Arbusto (you had it coming, McRib hater ;-)) 4. Kristine 5. Mona (because, well, just because.) Bring it on, and don't drink the Haterade until after you've seen what you said. It's a fun exercise. Peace.
|Dear God, Why won't you allow McDonald's to sell the McRib all the time? Why do you force them to ration out its tastiness, making me wait an unknown and unendurable amount of time between servings? Since they won't offer me a reasonable explanation, I can only assume that it's your divine will that prevents me from having the best food this side of bacon on a consistent basis. And lo, though the sandwich is loaded with polyunsaturated fats, sodium, and preservatives enough to mummify a small field rat, I want it. I want it badly. I want it daily, and I want it now. Please, in your infinite wisdom, find a way to allow Mickey D's to give me what I need. I'd hate to have to cut a fool, just to get my fix. Holla.
|This is for anyone who lives in Atlanta, who has ever lived in Atlanta, has ever visited Atlanta, ever plans to visit Atlanta, knows anyone who already lives in Atlanta, or knows anyone who has ever heard of Atlanta, Georgia, also known as Hotlanta, A-Town, the Dirty South, The ATL, and The Place Where Hope Dies. I'm not hating on ATL; in fact, I kinda like that town. I have many good friends there. But that doesn't take away the fact that driving there is just slightly less difficult than understanding particle physics and comparative politics. Atlanta is composed mostly of one-way streets. The only way to get out of downtown Atlanta is to turn around and start over when you reach Greenville, South Carolina. All directions start with, "Go down Peachtree" and include the phrase, "When you see the Waffle House." Except that in Cobb County, all directions begin with, "Go to the Big Chicken", or "See that black guy running for his life? It's just past there." Peachtree Street has no beginning and no end and is not to be confused with: Peachtree Circle Peachtree Place Peachtree Lane Peachtree Road Peachtree Parkway Peachtree Run Peachtree Terrace Peachtree Avenue Peachtree Commons Peachtree Battle Peachtree Corners New Peachtree Old Peachtree West Peachtree Peachtree-Dunwoody Peachtree-Chamblee Peachtree Industrial Boulevard Atlantans only know their way to work and their way home. If you ask anyone for directions they will always send you down Peachtree. Gate One at Atlanta's Hartsfield International Airport is 32 miles away from the Main Concourse, so wear sneakers and pack a lunch. The 8am rush hour is from 6:30 to 10:30 AM. The 5pm rush hour is from 3:00 to 7:30 PM. Friday's rush hour starts Thursday afternoon and lasts through 2am Saturday. A native can only pronounce Ponce De Leon Avenue, so do not attempt the Spanish pronunciation. People will simply tilt their heads to the right and stare at you. The Atlanta pronunciation is "pawns duh LEE-on". The falling of one raindrop causes all drivers to immediately forget all traffic rules. If a single snowflake falls, the city is paralyzed for three days and it's on all the channels as a news flash every 15 minutes for a week. All grocery stores will be sold out of milk,bread, bottled water, toilet paper, and beer. I-285, the loop that encircles Atlanta that has a posted speed limit of 55 mph (but you have to maintain 80 mph just to keep from getting run over), is known to truckers as "The Watermelon 500." Don't believe the directional markers on highways. I-285 is marked "East" and "West" but you may be going "North" or "South". The locals identify the direction by referring to the "Inner Loop" and the "Outer Loop". If you travel on Hwy 92 North, you will actually be going southeast. Never buy a ladder or mattress in Atlanta. Just go to one of the interstates and you will soon find one in the middle of the road. The last thing you want to do is give another driver the finger, unless your car is armored, your trigger finger is itchy and your AK-47 has a full clip. Peace.
|Guys, swing by my friend Laurie's blog, Beauty and the Beer. It's seriously funny. Let her know what you think. Holla, my sista! Peace.
|If you've never read "The Boondocks" comic strip, you should. It's like "Doonesbury" with black people. Aaron McGruder is completely unafraid to tackle hot-button issues head-on, and his strip is constantly dropped from newspapers due to its inflammatory subject matter. However, they can't deny that's it's also funny as hell. There's a Boondocks cartoon due to premiere on Cartoon Network this fall. It oughta be ridiculously funny. Check 'em out.

You've all seen this scenario, especially on TV: a smoking hot woman coupled with a guy who looks like he should be fixing a leaky faucet or charging you too much to replace your alternator. And you ask yourself the same question every time: Why? How? How is it that this balding, pudgy, doughy-looking dude end up with a woman who could conceivably model for a living? Let us examine this phenomenon. Let's take two popular sitcoms, for starters. According To Jim and The King of Queens both epitomize this seemingly unrealistic setup, pairing Jim Belushi and Kevin James, two portly, non-hot guys with Courtney Thorne-Smith and Leah Remini, two total hotties. (Oh, Leah, you minx.) These guys have hit the relationship jackpot as it pertains to physical attraction, and they behave like ineffectual, boorish louts without any trace of jealousy or insecurity directed toward their hot wives. It's not just restricted to the sitcom world....there's a Geico commercial, for example, where the dopey husband is reading the paper at the dinner table, and his hot wife comes out wearing a nice evening dress, asking him if she looks fat in that outfit. (Ladies, never do this. Never, ever. It puts us guys in a precarious position, especially if you really do look fat in that dress. See, we want to have sex with you later, and we have no idea how to answer this question without endangering the potential poontang (or poonanny, depending on your alliterative preferences.)) Even in real life, I'm sure you know someone, some goofy-ass dude with about as much game as an epileptic Steve Urkel, who has somehow snagged an extra from The O.C. How in the hell does this happen? Let's explore:
This is one of my favorite things to do. I'm gonna post some interesting news stories, and then comment on them. (This is what I do when I've got no material, and don't wanna get heavy and discuss the hurricane.) Enjoy! -----
LOS ANGELES - When a customer at the Dream Girls Cabaret refused a lap dance from a topless dancer, the stripper pulled out a knife and stabbed him. Lawanda Dixon was arrested for assault with a deadly weapon after the alter- cation with Melik Jordan early on Wednesday. "He was in the club with some friends watching the shows when she came up and asked if he wanted a lap dance," San Diego police Det. Gary Hassen said. "He said no, she got upset about it, they argued back and forth. She pulled knife out of her bag and stabbed him."Holy shit. What did Melik say to Lawanda, "white girls only"? "Your ass is too big"? He must've said something truly foul to make her pull out a knife and cut him. Usually dancers are only about the money, and if ol' Melik didn't want her company, she'd move on to the next guy. Here's how I figure it went: Lawanda: "Hey baby, want a dance?" Melik: "No thanks, not right now." L: (slightly offended) "What's wrong, I'm not your type?" M: "Nah, I'm just chillin' right now." L: (getting mad): "Oh, I get it. I'm not PRETTY enough for your country ass!" M: (getting pissed): "Look, I just wanna sit here, ok? Now go shake your ass for someone else." L: (Losing her shit): "I bet if I was WHITE you'd let me dance for you, you li'l bitch!" M: "Probably. You'd at least shut the hell up then." And that's when she stabbed him. Poor Melik. I bet the story he told his girlfriend was very, very different. ------
NEW ZEALAND - Hastings police say that a 19-year-old thief is lucky to be alive. The cops were called to a farm around 2 a.m., after a man was seen trying to steal gasoline from a vehicle. However, the thief had a flaw in his brilliant plan. He was using a cigarette lighter to see what he was doing. The flame got a little to close to the gas fumes and the car went up in flames. The man was lucky that he didn't blow himself up, say police. He has been charged with theft.He needs to be charged with unmetered stupidity. Where did he learn how to be a thief, from the "Home Alone" movies? Who doesn't know that gas + open flame = charbroiled Charlie? This is when I wish automatic sterilization for stupidity was a law. This guy needs to never procreate. -----
EDISON, N.J. - A New Jersey adult store that once sent 100 sex toys to Iraqi women has launched a food drive offering free porn in exchange for canned food. Playtime in Edison, N.J., conducted "Operation Vibration" last year to help the "suppressed" women of Iraq and its latest effort, "Food 4 Porn" seeks to help the needy closer to home, the Newark Star-Ledger reports. "There are people starving in the U.S. It's abominable, it's just not right," Playtime owner Deirdre Krasner told the Star-Ledger. However, Krasner said, her effort to change the image of porn shops is not being welcomed by everyone. Several area charities refused her offer of canned food, she said.Now, this burns me up. Unlike the last story. Here you have a store owner who has gone out of her way to help out people in need, and the charities are turning her away simply because she runs a porn store! Porn doesn't make corn any less filling. Jenna Jameson isn't gonna jump out of a can of soup. She's not slipping dildos into the baked beans. She worked out a plan to help others, and now these high-and-mighty charities are refusing her perfectly-edible food, all because of its origin. This is pathetic. They don't have to advertise where they got the food, do they? They just have to give to the needy. And now, as a result, people in need - such as the Katrina victims - have that much less to eat because these prudes were too prim to accept charitable items from a person who runs a perfectly legal business. If you don't wanna accept donations from drug dealers, gun runners, or mobsters, I understand. But I bet you that if Smith and Wesson offered up some canned goods, they'd snatch it up quicker than a toddler grabs a cookie. Last time I checked, porn never killed anyone. I swear, our society is so screwed up sometimes. You've heard about the big stink with the Grand Theft Auto game by now, I assume. There's a hidden sex scene in the game, and parents went INSANE - which, by the way, they should. But here's the thing: why weren't they equally or more insane about the drive-by shootings in the game? Me, I love me some ultra-violent videogames, and I'd be extremely upset if they were removed from the market wholesale. And when I play, I'm a good parent about it, and I don't let my kids play or even watch me play them. So why the stink, then? Hell, the game's already rated M for Mature. Is seeing two consenting, animated adults have sex SO MUCH WORSE than seeing two consenting, animated adults shoot each other in the face? An M rating means you have to be 18 to own and play these games. So why are adults going nuts? Because they buy the M rated games for their young kids anyway, without bothering to see what they're about. These are the same parents who let their kids watch R rated movies, and don't understand why little Suzy said "shit" in school today, and want to blame any and everything other than themselves for it. Makes me nuts. There's a game out right now called "187". For those who don't know, 187 is the police code for a homicide. Basically, the game is all about killing...whoever. This game is ok to be on the market, as is. God forbid there be a game about hooking up. It would never see the light of day. Peace. |
