The people on Yahoo! Answers never cease to amaze me with their high quality queries and rapid, helpful responses.

The following question was posted under Women’s Heath. I sorted the responses, so top rated answer for this gem of a question is just below the question. See the question and response »

As I’ve said before, one of the things I do when I’m bored is flip through questions on Yahoo! Answers and look for the dumbest questions being asked at the time. It usually doesn’t take long, but this time the work was done for me so it didn’t take any time at all!

I came across an image on another site, which was a screen cap of a question asked in the Decorating & Remodeling section of Yahoo! Answers, and I laughed so hard that I decided to see the question for myself.

A quick Google search led me right to the question. Continue to the question »

It looks like Boost Mobile is continuing its trend of shit commercials that annoy the hell out of me. This time, they’ve chosen to change it up and offer a duo of commercials starring Georgie, a play on George Washington and the dollar bill. Now, instead of Boost Mobile being the hip choice, Boost Mobile is selling itself as the cheap choice in cellular service.

The only positive thing I can say about the new ad campaign is that they seem to have dropped the Where You At? slogan. At least for now.

Everything else I can say is negative. I watched a behind-the-scenes video on the Georgie ad campaign and I was not impressed. You can’t have George Washington spew slang to push the great value of a dollar in the new pricing plans and expect to sell me on it. To start, Georgie sounds mentally challenged. He’s trying to rap, but he sounds like a douche trying to make himself seem more important than he actually is. To top it off, these commercials play as often as any other Boost Mobile commercial has ever played, so it repeatedly violates my eardrums. I have to wonder how much money Boost Mobile is pushing into these ad campaigns and what the return rate is.

Here’s an analogy for you: Georgie is to George Washington as Kanye West is to Elvis Presley.

If I only had $30 each month to spend on a cell phone and Boost Mobile was the only provider with a plan I could afford, I would only have a cell phone every other month because I would use two months of cell phone savings to pay for a single month of another provider.

I just realized something. Boost Mobile is abbreviated BM. So is bowel movement. That’s pure summary right there.

I really try to be polite on message boards. In fact, most times I refrain from saying anything. The biggest cost of being polite is the toll it takes on my patience. Unfortunately, I have little tollerance for idiots, so my patience wears thin very quickly.

It really irks me to see people reply to a post and ask a stupid question because they didn’t read the entire post before replying. The question being asked is totally off subject of the post. What I have just read is an example, which I have posted below.

Wouldn’t it have helped the person replying to simply read the full post, and know that the poster was asking if each project could be updated with new episodes, instead of just adding new projects.

Maybe I have an uncanny ability to read and comprehend.

One of the most aggravating things someone like me can endure is the constant demise of the English language, brought about by the introduction and acceptance of modern slang by mainstream culture. Every time I turn on the TV or watch a movie, I’m reminded that writers pander to the masses, and the masses are slang-slinging idiots.

I can accept slang as part of every day life, in moderation, but somehow it became gauche to speak properly. Now slang has run rampant and become the predominant element of communication. Well, excuse me for my sentence structure and proper use of words actually found in a dictionary. Continue reading »

I don’t feel good about this at all… Well… Actually… I had a lot of fun doing it, so I guess it wasn’t a total waste of time.

Yesterday, I posted my observations on women who shave their eyebrows and paint them back on, and I photoshopped an image of Angelina Jolie to illustrate a point. You can look back on that post here: Shaved Eyebrows Are Sexy.

In the post, I stopped editing the Angelina Jolie picture after I had painted on her new eyebrows. For this post, I’ve gone all the way and transformed Angelina into a clown in full makeup. Click to view the photo »
