Ok, I'll come back. How can you not watch this?

Argh!

Can anyone explain pop music's fetish with choreographed dancing? Wasn't grunge supposed to fix that say, 20 years ago? Before it turned into Stone Temple of the Pearl Dogs? Nuts to this, I'm going to start working on the most un-listenable music I can come up with until I never, ever believe we'll see choreographed dance groups to music again. If I'm successful, modern music will be viewed with disdain such as the killing fields of the Khmer Rouge or perhaps even (dare I dream?) The Holocaust. I will lay such waste to this as to make the masses wish post-post-modern had never happened. I will make people cry out for the Baroque!

Spammity spammy fun time

Yes, I'm a dork and regularly read my spam. This one (sent three times) gets special mention.
And I thought it wouldn't get worse...
Interesting image, indeed.

Goodnight. I can't (or won't) do this anymore.

Notice: Employers

I understand that employers want to know what they are getting into when bringing someone into the fold

However, if you think my sarcasm, frustration, angst, anything that you may have read here is worthy of filtering me out of the pool, I respectfully acknowledge your decision.

On my part, if you think that I will give you my passwords as part of a job or an application, I think we are terribly mismatched and will go about my business.

Thank you.

Thoughts

I've been reading a lot of news lately about government interfering in people's views on contraception by way of mandate.

It makes me think of this:

This was the park that my mother used to stand in line for (and I with her, sometimes) for "Government commodities" Low-income households could qualify to get USDA-approved handouts (which, to be honest, were not that good, but met minimum guidelines)...I'll tell you, I'm thankful, but it still sucked.

They would give you a bag of sugar, a bag of flour, (if you were lucky) a few packets of dehydrated eggs, a container of peanut butter, a big box of powdered milk. Sometimes, you'd get a little more, sometimes a little less. It was always better than nothing, and even though my mother got child support, some alimony, help from my grandparents, eventually SSD, it's never quite the posh life, but let me get back to my point:

The thing I loathed the most: Ground pork, in a can. My mother within her means substituted it best she could in place of ground beef. I hated it, but I was fed.

Which brings me back to my original point: I remember being in that park, but I don't remember people turning much away. I definitely don't remember some sort of outrage that somehow the federal government (and all you/us taxpayers) were somehow insulting anyone that perhaps the pork products went against their beliefs. I don't recall any outrage that the feds were using taxpayer money to give the porcine to those that identified with Judiasm or Islam or vegetarians or whatever...

I respect any religion that believes in a thing, but I humbly suggest that if the federal government is really trying to do a good thing, there is absolutely no way to please every person all of the time.

I would ask that if there's something that's really getting under your skin, and you think the government is somehow impinging upon your beliefs, stand up and give another option.

Retch

Yum! Brands! I! Think! I! Hate! You!

*cough* *cough* *hurl*


Like many of our customers, I grew up with the brands. My family loved a bucket of Kentucky Fried Chicken. I took dates to Pizza Hut. When I was in college, every Sunday, I used to go and chow down on six or seven tacos, maybe eight (at Taco Bell).


I like food. I enjoy it. I may be braver than some when it comes to eating, but I've always lived by the idea of "Try everything once, if you don't like it, at least you can say so out of conviction." (I have a respected friend that says "Try everything twice. Maybe the first time it was made lousy")

I've eaten a lot of food that might not look so palatable to my peers (I'm still working on how to convince my fianceƩ to eat fish or other seafood), and I think the only times I can remember having a hard time enjoying it is lutefisk, and the eye-stalks on some fully-fried shrimp. (The former, being a horror nobody should eat, the latter wouldn't have been a problem if I'd ever found that famous brain-off switch and didn't think about it as much)

I'm not much of a world-traveler, only been to Canadia once and Mexico a couple times. My trip to Canada was not that remarkable (It was circa 1990, and at the ripe age of 13, not that adventurous), but I had a really awesome meal in Mexico where the locals (It was a church trip where we were helping them out), thanked us by making us food. I was 15, but clever enough to know this was the real stuff (and their generosity may have put a pinch on their usual budgets)

I want to eat pho in Vietnam. I want to try a single piece of nigiri in Japan from a master. I want to know what real goulash tastes like. I want to taste from a real plate of sausages somewhere in northern Europe. I want somebody to take pity on me and explain why kimchi is what it is.

I do not want to work in my life saving up for getting to see these real experiences and then show up to "Woo! 59c chilito! With a side of fried chicken!"

Call me a snob and I'll call you a liar. I don't want to be a tourist. When/if I get to see more of the world, I want the real thing, I don't want "And our parent company Pepsico made us put Doritos in everything because it keeps the profit margins running across the business lines!"

Dreams.

My mind works in weird ways.

I had a dream last night that I was in my old (years ago old) house, and came home and was confronted by some guy. He fit every stereotype of german industrial music from the late 80's/early 90's, (black leather pants/vest with the minimum of added studs, short bleached and spiked hair, etc.) and started towards me in a menacing way swinging a length of chain.

As he got closer, I grabbed the chain, and he burst out into song, horrible rock-opera style (all in German), so I responded in dramatic gibberish-German song...

Pulled him downstairs to my brother's bedroom, handed my brother the end of the chain and said "It's your turn to walk Adolf" (Maybe it was "Hans" or "Rolf." I forget now)

Then I woke up.

Hah.

I do read my spam. Tonight's special winner was the adult-chat pan-handler that went on a long and rambling message (of near incoherence) that apparently was so excited to talk to me again (I never have) that they forgot to include their SUPR-XCLUSIVE chat room or the SUPER-SEKRIT password (that they only get to give out a few times a month)
