Making reality better…

Reality TV is really starting to wear thin on me.  The parodies of the parody are starting to be parodied.  It is getting to the point where it is hard to determine if something is genuinely funny, ironically funny or just pathetic.  People laugh at the idiots on Jersey Shore then turn around and act [...]

… And thats why the terrorists hate us.

The other day I was talking with someone and they were complaining about a random annoyance in their life.  It was one of the trivial things that everyone complains about that really are not that big a deal.  I don’t even remember what it was but at the end of her rant I told her [...]

You can call me Ansel Adams…

I am finally getting a camera-phone (I know, welcome to 2006, Mr. Ultraparadoxical).  The corporate blackberry I had been using did not have that capability but I am getting a new one by next week.  Besides the obvious bonus of being able to send pictures of my genitalia to my friends and loved ones it [...]

A Concert Story II

Concerts are fantastic.  As I have outlined in previous posts they are the perfect storm for many of the things that I love – music, people watching and substance abuse.  Two weekends ago I flew to San Francisco to hang out with one of my friends that moved there recently (lets call her “TK” for [...]

Sights and sounds of the town that is down

I have been living in downtown San Diego for about 2 months now and it has been everything I thought it would be and more.  I have seen more interesting things is the short time I have lived in my new place than the 4 years I had lived at my old pad in a [...]

Monday Morning Psycho-babble

I read “Man and His Symbols” by Karl Jung a while back and his thoughts have had a lasting impact on me and the way I view the machinations of my mind and the impact of the unconscious side of myself.  The subconscious is a critical  aspect of the mind to analyze in order to [...]

A Concert Story

There is nothing I like better than going to check out some bands play.  Some people prefer tailgating, going out dancing or sitting at home on the couch watching Three’s Company reruns on a Tuesday afternoon to get their “drink on” but, for me, concerts are the best all around drinking pastimes.  The people watching [...]

Douche-mas has come early this year!

MTV really upped the douchebag ante with their newest reality show, Jersey Shore.  Apparently a producer over at MTV decided that The Real World was just not trashy enough so they looked deep into the armpit of America and found a bunch of self proclaimed “Guidos” and “Guidettes” to live together for a few weeks [...]

The Internet is Shitting on my Attention Span

As I have mentioned before, I have the attention span of a hummingbird.  It is not my fault though – I blame the internet.  I used to be able to sit down for 45 minutes and enjoy reading a book.  Now I can barely sit still for 5 minutes in the bathroom and scan a [...]

Listen up Celebrities, I May Have Just Saved Your Ass

Tiger, Tiger, Tiger – you sorry son of a bitch. Actually, I don’t feel bad for him at all, he shat his bed and now he needs to lie in it (if you are not familiar with the story read it here and while you are at it leave the cave you are living in [...]
