Seriously?


Don't you just love when the number of facebook friends you have decreases right before your eyes? I don't know about you but it kills me...
and it shouldn't! Here's why: If I can't even figure out who is deleting me then I shouldn't worry if they don't want to be "friends" with me anymore. But still, it stings a little. Seriously? I need to calm it.

Irony?


I am a stickler for the correct usage of the term 'irony'. So many people seem to be using it wrong these days. I feel like such a snob when someone calls something ironic and I HAVE to tell them "No, I'm sorry. That's not ironic." So snobby.

Case in point (which is totally obvious but still a good example): the song Ironic by Alanis Morissette. 95% of the stinking song is full of examples or situations that are not ironic!

It's like rain on your wedding day (Who said your wedding day HAS to have good weather? This person could have planned it during the rainy season. Who are they to expect clear skies? Please just plan a summer wedding if you want good weather. Idiots!)

It's a free ride when you've already paid (Just sounds like bad timing to me.)

It's the good advice that you just didn't take (That's not ironic. It's choosing to do what you want. Really, Alanis?)

It's a traffic jam when you're already late (Ok really? That's a no. Leave early.)

It's a no-smoking sign on your cigarette break (Shouldn't you already know where the designated places to smoke are at your own place of work/hangout?)

It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife (Is anyone else being fooled by these? What life situation ever would bring me to a place where I had 10,000 spoons available to me?)

It's meeting the man of my dreams And then meeting his beautiful wife (Now this one is funny. Just because you see a guy you want and has the qualities you're diggin', he should be single? Uh, no.)

Something happened to me last week, that I thought could be irony, but then later decided that it was just coincidental:

I dropped my hairdryer into my bathroom sink which was full of water... I know! Stupid and dangerous, and why in the heck was the sink full of water, you ask? I don't remember. So it totally dies. I then grab my roommate's hairdryer and hers is broken! Two hairdryers in one day! Gone! Dead!

When I arrived at work that morning, a rub on tattoo of a hairdryer was randomly left on my desk. No one knows where it came from... WEIRD. Right?

Pretty sure it's coincidental.

Something that is buggin'...


Are you all aware of RC Willey's new campaign with Paige Davis? Is it just me or is she the most annoying person on the planet right now? Now, I remember from Trading Spaces that she was slightly freaky and perky - but was she really that bad? Maybe I just don't remember clearly... You know, even the billboards are annoying! Am I right? They are so cheesy! This ad campaign is not making me want to go out and buy anything from RC Willey (even if I had the money).

Don't get me wrong - I am a big fan of clever advertising, even if it's slightly weird and annoying. Remember those Quizno commercials with those little hamster things with human mouths that sang ("They have a pepper bar!") ? They were creepy and disturbing! But at the same time I found them hilarious! Everyone was talking about the Quizno commercials and in turn everyone was talking about Quizno's! Smart and creepy advertising!

Maybe RC Willey realizes that she is annoying and they're trying to do the same thing Quizno's did with the rats. They got me talking about it, so... they win?

I wish I could make some cash by being annoying! Paige is the real winner here.

I didn't think anyone could hate I-80 more than I do...

...but I was wrong! Check this out:

I seriously laughed my butt right off when I was driving passed that the other day! Yeah, I-80! Take that! That'll show you for being extremely difficult to drive on... especially at night. Sheesh!

Then I wondered: who are these people and how drunk were they when they decided to do this? They had to have done it in the middle of the night as to not get caught. Come on people! Go get an education and get on with your lives already! I'm sure your baby mama would not approve of your actions right now!

So then I saw a commercial the other day for a story FOX13 did on the graffiti, and I'm so mad about it! Cleaning up the graffiti has cost Utah $20,000 in the last two weeks alone! Can you believe it?

So next time you see some punks repelling off the freeway walls to do a little tagging - call the stinking police!
