So you know those Carfax reports that give you the entire history of the used vehicle you’re considering buying and tells you about all the issues the car has had? What if they had that for hotel rooms? Would you ever go to Vegas again if you could find out about all the misfortunes that have occurred in your room/bed/bathroom. I’m not sure that I could. I don’t even like using the TV remotes since I’m pretty sure those don’t get cleaned ever.
Speaking of Vegas, what the hell is the point with the topless revue’s? Are there guys who want to see topless women? Yes. Are there people who want to see a theatrical production? Yes. Is there any overlap between group A and B? I somehow doubt it.
You know what is annoying? When you see a movie preview on TV and they integrate the dialogue from the movie with the dialogue of the commercial. Example:
Narrator guy: “Random movie is the #1 move in America”
Character in movie: “Well I can’t say I’m surprised.”
Why is this necessary? It’s not clever or funny…just a tired idea. Tell me the movie is doing well at the box office or show me an enticing preview. But don’t try to do both at the same time.
Can’t there be a law controlling businesses from calling their products “world famous?” I feel like this gets abused way too often. You’re telling me your hamburger/radio station/coffee is really internationally known? So if I went to Russia and asked about you, they would know what I was talking about? I bet.
I bet guys love being friends with sports cameramen who have the uncanny ability to find the most attractive women in a large crowd with ease. Their friends probably take them out to bars and clubs just so they can quickly identify some targets.
Prediction: Facebook status updates will put the The Weather Channel out of business by 2012.
Why do food delivery places sometimes give you the option to tip before the delivery is made and to what advantage is it to tip beforehand? Say you go online to order a pizza and they ask if you want to leave a tip. Say you tip a lot because you think maybe it will ensure speedy delivery and then the guy takes forever to show up…guess what, you just tipped a guy who didn’t deserve it. What if you tipped poorly because you’re just a bad tipper? Guess what, you’re gonna be waiting while for that pizza.
Encores at concerts are really dumb if you think about it. People cheer, clap, and stand for like 5 minutes sometimes when you just KNOW the band is going to come back out. I’m not about to make a fool out of myself for all that time when it probably has no bearing on whether the encore is going to happen or not. And don’t get me started on double encores.
Pink lemonade….why? Have you ever seen a pink lemon before? Didn’t think so. (If you dare tell me the history of pink lemonade and how it used to be made with other things that made it pink, I’m going to think bad thoughts about you every time I see a glass of fraud being poured at restaurants. The fact of the matter is that now it’s just lemonade with pink coloring, which is stupid.)
We need to come up with a term for when someone emails you about something on the internet and they’re way behind on it, like if someone emailed me right now to show me the video of the double rainbow guy. I think it’s kind of embarrassing to think someone hasn’t seen something that everyone saw a month ago and I would love to have some verbiage to dish out that embarrassment.
Ever notice that people on facebook are really excited about spreading bad news? Even people who don’t post on facebook are all over the “RIP (insert celebrity here)“ bandwagon. I really feel like this is done more to show the world you’re on top of the news rather than your genuine distress over the death. Michael Jackson died! OMG! I need to get to facebook to prove to people I knew about this right away and didn’t read their status to get the news! God help us if someone important dies while it’s raining and then there’s an earthquake too. People won’t know what to do with themselves.
Bless the heart of whoever decided it was ok to have the credits for movies on TV to scroll at triple speed.
Why does Subway sell cookies? All they talk about is how healthy it is to eat at Subway and then you get up to the register to pay and there’s a case of cookies sitting there that “says ‘Treat Yourself’” and “C’mon, one won’t hurt!” I turn to you to lose some weight and this is how you treat me? I’m disappointed.
