Billboard humor

February 8, 2010

Sometimes billboards just get me.  You may recall the one for an adult superstore where their slogan was “It’s cheaper than dating…”.  Classic.  Well I saw another good one today.

That ”Love Thy Neighbor” thing…  I meant that.

Come to find out this isn’t original, but it still makes me laugh.  Well played.

Workout music

February 3, 2010

Top 5 songs to workout to?  I have decided to take the iPod off shuffle and go with something a little more set.  But where to start?  Do you go more pop-y? hard rock? dance style?

And don’t worry I already brought Sexy back.

Give me some goodies people!

Camera preference?

February 1, 2010

Let’s talk digital cameras, cause my Canon finally bit the dust. Granted she was about 7 years old.  We had a good time her and I but alas it is time to move on.  This is where you come in.  What do you recommend for a digital camera these days?  I don’t need anything special just good pictures with video option.  Otherwise I am not too picky and it certainly doesn’t have to be up to pro standards.  Remember I am working with a budget these days.

Suggestions?

Also for your listening pleasure I’m bringing it back ol school.

MacGruber and Archer

January 26, 2010

Yes, MacGruber is becoming a full length movie.  I’m excited.  If you aren’t aware of what this is from SNL, check out the trailer:

And I would like to say that Archer, the new show on FX isn’t funny because I really don’t need a new show to watch.  But I can’t.

Don’t make it weird.  It’s offensively good!

Spin cycle, baby.

January 20, 2010

These are the last thoughts my phone may have had.  We’re not sure.  I do know my phone went through the washer and did not come out living on the other side.  Back to a new old phone…again.  I’m getting pretty good at this.

Jammin out

January 19, 2010

Everyone knows my obsession with teen angst driven shows (we may dedicate time to this later). This week some of those shows started back up.  One Tree Hill (where they are now all grown up) is back in full effect and some great music came from the show last night.  Quick synopsis is this, Haley is a character on the show who is a musician.  However, in real life she actually is a musician and so they use lots of music of hers and her band Everly.  Last night featured some new music and two of which I really liked.  Check em out:

Who doesn’t love the song We Belong?  Great remake here, folks.

Or their new one Flying Machine, give it a minute of your time (and yes, ignore the dumb video)

What’s in Iowa?

January 15, 2010

More than corn, in fact it is definitely more diverse than you think.

Iowa City ranked 3rd gayest city in the country.

Well done Iowa City.

The Hangover

January 11, 2010

As much as I would like to be talking about the movie (which is a keeper), I am in fact talking about my Sunday.  What happens when you drink so much Saturday night?  You are pretty much worthless on Sunday and have to rely on friends and your brother to fill you in about the night before. Common things that may happen when in a highly inebriated state:

  • Call your friends and let them know that it isn’t cool not to answer your call
  • Watch movies like “Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitters Dead” & “Adventures in Babysitting”
  • Send completely random text to many people in your phone
  • You may even ask your ex for your class ring back

What does that leave you with the next day? Mainly disorientation and you may find it hard to concentrate on certain puzzles.  As I am laying on the floor today trying to recover, my brother has decided to clean.  In the midst of his cleaning he hits the chandelier with his head and something comes flying out.  We both stop and wonder what it could be.  Only to find three bullets.  Seriously?  Yes, seriously.  Can’t even begin to fathom the answer to that mystery…who, what, when?

A major part of the hangover process is eating crap food.  A nice big soda has never tasted so good.  Clayton and I hit up the ‘ol McDonalds drive thru only to leave and pull up to a car with their soda still on top of the car.  After watching them drive down the road (and it still not coming off) we finally get them stopped where we have to tell them in a fantastic game of charades that they have a cup on their roof. I opted for the ’sucking back on grandpa’s old cough medicine’ gesture.  Seemed to do the trick.

After a full day of being pretty much worthless you can possibly return to the regular routine the following day.  Wish me luck for tomorrow.
