Finals Week -- Sungoations 5

In a desperate attempt at a distraction, I bring to you the latest installment of what's going on in my head, and the world's quirks that irk my world.

-One of the good old Dane Cook jokes involved finding the "Karen the douchebag" among your friends. I was recently thinking about that, and how if you don't know who it is, it's probably you. Thank God, I just realized who it was among my friends.

-Is it just me, or has anyone else not made the correlation between a quarterback, halfback, and fullback. Ok, so maybe I am the only one who didn't realize until now that they all ended with back. But, look more closely, while the quarterback is generally a quarter of the way back, the halfback stands the full way back, the fullback stands halfway back. Get your shit together football.

-Is it so sad in our society of a constant lack of face to face communication, that a screwed up emoticon can actually affect us. I got winky frowny face the other day - ;( - (how do you parenthesize emoticons) and was clueless on what that meant. When I asked about it, they just signed off.

-Speaking of which, I was so excited that I came up with a new emoticon that would make me millions (yeah, millions). The raised eyebrows (-:3. Then I found out it already exists in the cooler form (-B. I just can't get a win.

-Why do toilet seats in a house bathroom have closed ovals, but in public restrooms, there is a gap in the front?

-Everyone loves Judd Apatow movies, let's face it, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Superbad, they're all brilliant. But I think I finally figured out the formula for their movies' success. Ever notice how all of those same guys are in the movies, but none of them are successful comedians. Instead of using their one liners in a routine, they tie them in to now quotable movies with an almost formulated plot-line of friends breaking up, [insert middle of movie], then getting back together at the end.

-It's so awkward when walking up a narrow path and realizing that you are about to encounter an awkward situation where there won't be enough room to walk by comfortably. You both know it, see it coming...it's so awkward, that the realizing of the occurrence is more awkward than the actual inevitable awkward moment itself.

-I'll leave you to end on this note, reverting back to how I thought as a child. It confused the 8 year old shit out of me that when you breathe in, you look skinnier, but when you blow out all the air, your gut gets bigger.

It's Been Awhile, SG 4

Ok so, here's my entertainment...some call it bimonthly, most don't know what this is, others don't know what bimonthly means. Anyway, I haven't blabbered in awhile, mostly due to the fact that I've done the healthy thing by venting to people instead of to a word document-let's see if I can remember any of it...

-I can't tell what's healthier for me, pointing out everybody's minor faults or slips, where they'll be mad at me, but I'll be satisfied...or holding it back, and having nicer friends, but then built up rage from not saying anything.

-They say that venting is good for you(see Office Season 2, Episode 21 - Conflict Resolution); it's supposed to relieve tension and make you feel better. It just gets me into more trouble, and then I'm even more stressed about people thinking I'm weird.

-Is it too cliche to pull a prank on April Fool's Day? I feel like such a tard saying "April FOOLS!!" But then again, as a self entitled "pranker" (seriously, I'm the only one who thinks I'm a good practical joker), this should be my day to shine. It's like Rosh Hashana for a half jew.

-As much as I dislike the NBA, I get why it exists. These guys are phenominal athletes that put on decent competition...and there are people that love watching games. It makes money... I don't, however, understand why the WNBA exists...

-Ok, so many of my friends have gotten the new Pokemon. I've always wondered how come in pokemon, the other pokemon never leveled up if it defeated you? And wouldn’t it be easier to catch em all if you could throw a pokeball at it after it fainted? Like it's probably on the ground lying there, fainted, this is ideal one would think...

-There's only so much action in a movie that can make up for bad acting...Enter Con Air, it teeters right on the edge of this fine line. I'm onto you Nicholas Cage, I still don't understand why I enjoy your movies.

-Comedians would have the most amazing lives if what they said for jokes about what happened to them, actually happened to them. Think about any famous comedian telling a story, and how incredulous the story is. Classic example - Dane Cook...enough said, that's all he does.

-So finally, I got around to doing this. In the meantime, I had taken note to my good friend Brian, who made a new blog about new things such as music, clothes, whatever -- http://somesauce.blogspot.com/ It's informative as well as humorous just to see what other people in the world come up with. Also he knows more than I do about the bands I consider myself more loyal to, and while that saddens me, at least I now know about Wolfmother's new album, until next time...
