you get that familiar cramp in your gut, like you need to fart-
but you're in a public place, what do you do?
except fuck, what's this? blood starts gushing out of your ass? HOLY FUCKING SHIT!
and as you fall down you find out- you've come down with a fatal case of- being on a television hospital drama!
have you ever noticed that when, say, you're watching house or something similar, you can always tell when they're about to cut to commercial? the person starts flailing around or there heart stops and they need to get a great big needle because he's got a commercial inside! we need to get it out, STAT!
and just as they do the commercial comes flying out so fast they have to cut to like 3 FUCKING MINUTES OF COMMERCIALS. every couple of minutes even. because i'm living in the world of being a tight bastard, i don't have TIVO. not that i couldn't totally use one. but i am just so hardcore, i use the VCR.
i use ghetto 80s tivo. i just tape the shows i'm going to miss and then play them over and now i can fast forward through the commercials. and sometimes if it's really awesome, well then i have a tape. lol
and now that no one borrows tapes, i can safely amass a collection. lol
well, ok. i buy a lot of dvds. but it's still kind of fun to have tapes. especially now because for some fucking reason the 80s are popular again. what the fuck? the 80s weren't really that cool the first time around, so let's relive the suck, sans reagan.
woot.
i just really don't understand why instead of coming up with something original, people are just copying the same shit over and over. it kind of takes the fun out of new stuff when you really know you're getting the same old thing, but now it's covered in a fine scrim of plastic and shit permeating it, and there's really no soul in it because it's not a struggle. there's a lot more fucking struggle in coming up with something original instead of just copying something  over and over.
and, actually, thinking about copying things over and over, what the fuck is up with U2? they haven't realeased what i would consider a very entertaining album in years. and now they're getting ready to do letter man for 5 DAYS IN A ROW?
wow. i feel bad for people who actually watch that show. 5 days of the same cold rehashed formula that made U2 cool to begin with but now has gotten so stale for me it's like, really? if bono's going to go out and play superhero, perhaps can't he just go out and ... DO that? beh. it's just kind of annoying.
although just as ironic is the fact that now rappers are not going to be allowed to use samples, and are in fact going to be forced to be a bit more original (hopefully this will also depart a little from the de riguer booty songs, which are really trashy and offensive. ugh), and maybe make it a little more listenable for the rest of us, as opposed to the background stomp to a ghetto shakedown.
personally, i think it's kind of funny that i've been kind of immersing myself in the new wave music situation and now the neo new wavers are about to bust out, synths ablazin'- and i'll be able to sit and listen to the music and point out who they're aping.
ha ha.
oh well, what can you do.
i managed to catch a bit of the rosie o'donnel on tyra bank's thing. it's kind of funny how as of late she's been trying to convince us to forget about her angry lesbian recent past and she's been borrowing heavily on her fan base of her tv show when she wasn't acting all crazy. lol
and maybe it's working, i don't know. lol
let's face it- people will do anything the big glowing box tells them to do.
