INFOmation Overload

It seems that our society has really started to create a lazy mentality. We do things that have created laziness. I am looking at these ridiculous INFOMERCIALS that are just hilarious! They have one where u don't have to boil your pasta now...seriously? How lazy is that..and the overacting of the host/washed up celebrity that endorses it.

These infomercial host who is usually some washed up out of work celebrity, are super annoying. The overact and being really fake. They cannot believe how powerful the product is. Its so pathetic. They need to have an infomercial to help salvage some of these washed up celebrity's career. "If there is a producer out there please call, and put in your next movie." I love the all the tag lines:

The infomercials are apparently trying to appeal to housewives. It is usually some cooking product making you life a lot easier (a cooker that saves the process of defrosting, or boiling or draining fat) or some type of beauty product by some washed up model (who can't even get on Top Model) hacking some lame ass beauty makeup that makes you look just like her.

"Just for easy payment of 19.95." (How is it easy? What happens if you don't make a payment or miss a payment? Does somebody come knocking on your door to collect?)

"Act now and we will throw in a free..." (FREE? In little writing at the bottom it normally says "just pay separate shipping and handling" which cost more than the product)

"Right now this product is a value of $299.34 (random price how do they come up with that)we will give it to you for the insane price of 4 easy payments of 39.95 or some other price which (along with shipping and handling) usually amounts to the same price.)

Enough. Most of these products end up being sold in the store eventually. Just wait for that. If ever there is a reason I endorse getting cable, it is the annoying informercials that come on regular television.

Good Time

So I went out yesterday and I had a GREAT TIME! I went to the power & light district in Kansas City and saw Bloodstone in concert, then I went to a picnic hosted by a friend of mine. As I was having a good time last night, I could not help but wonder why I don't have more days like this?

It seems like its almost like pulling teeth to get people to go out anymore. I schedule events, plan social getogethers and people ask like I am asking them for their first born child. Is it that difficult to go out? I understand that people have children, responsibilities, and busy careers. I also have all the same (sans the children). responsibilities.

So do any of you single people feel bad or ANYONE for that matter going out by yourself? I have begun to go out a few times by myself and have loved it. You get a chance to meet different people. Its not like I am shunning people, its just sometimes you get tired of asking people to do stuff and you keep hitting a brick wall. Anyone else feelin me on this?

Pampered & Privelleged

How many people actually think that Lindsay Lohan will serve her full 90 days? I think we will be lucky if she spends two weeks. What message does this send her? I am so tired of these pampered celebrities thinking they are above the law and then blaming their bad behaviors on their "deprivation of a child", "lack of privacy", "tiredness of living in the limelight". Question: if you are really tired of all the media scrutiny, why do you keep doing things IN PUBLIC? Its like me saying "I am tired of all these toothaches, but I am going to keep eating Bit O Honey candy." Come on!

Lindsay, I truly hope you get the help you need while you are away. Use this time to reflect on what got you to this point? I hope you understand how you are getting off lucky. Think about it, what if it has been Akeem T. Johnson from Compton that had gotten two DUI arrest, and would have missed court appointed rehab or probation? Would he have gotten 90 days? Come on...

More to come later.

You are NOT the father...

Ok I am shamefully watching Maury Povich. Does he ever do a show that is not about paternity test? I just do not get it. Here are a couple of things that are just laughable:

These women that come on who obviously sleep around. They come on and swear up and down that these dudes are the father of their babies only to get their faces broke when they find out that they are NOT the father. Come on yaw? Why embarrass yourself on national television like this? Oh wait..I guess I just figured it out, its because Maury pays for the DNA test.

The audience is quick to jump on these dudes who they think are no good only to have all of their faces broken when they find out the girl was skeezer. Geez..

Is this what entertainment has come down to? Maybe I just to change the channel.

Sail on....
