They're Coming to Get Your Barbara!

This weekend I am visiting my friend Jonny yet again in San Francisco. While it is always whimically ostensibly great to come here, tonight was especially wonderful.

We attended the Castro Theatre's "Shock It To Me" Festival.

The night consisted of a double feature of classic horror movies, Spider Baby and Night of the Living Dead. On top of this, the event was hosted by Ms.Monster, whom apparently is a national icon. As if this wasn't enough, Sid Haig was also there. If you are not familiar with this name, don't worry. Even if you "googled" him you probably wouldn't recognize him. Yet, for the .1% of morons who are familiar with his work in extremely low budget horror films, it was quite a treat.

While the movies were great to see on the big screen, I couldn't help but think about our host Ms. Monster. As the picture shows, she is a woman whom covers herself in blueish/green paint and makes appearances at horror movie conventions for a living. I just wondered how someone gets into that line of work. I cannot imagine that she makes really good money and I don't think her parents are super proud of their little girl's career choice. I just wonder where the satisfaction comes from. Who am I judge right?

I guess we all want attention. Heck I am probably just jealous that I didn't think of it first. She did make the event better, which in turn made me have a more enjoyable experience.

So in the end, I am proud of Ms. Monster. You go girl. You are the American dream.

Forget Joe the Plumber, the real working class hero is Ms. Monster.

Think about it, I just did.

Shallow

If you know me, I'm sorry.

If you know me, I can almost guarantee that I have asked you a question that attempts to gauge how shallow you are.

This question usually is formatted like this:
"What if you met the man/woman of your dreams, he was perfect in every way, except _____. Would you be able to spend the rest of your life with him/her?"

I have filled this blank in with many different scenarios such as, "he/she carried a Wii-Mote around their wrist everywhere they went." or "He/she would only get married if the song 'you spin me right round baby right round' would be the only song played throughout your wedding'". Or "he/she gagged uncontrollably everytime someone said the word croissant." Or "he/she Thought walking on their hands was the best way to reduce their carbon footprint." Or "Called Farts "rippers" and loved to tell everyone that she just "ripped a ripper" everytime you were in public."

The list is endless.

After asking ourselves these questions, we should (as Americans) found out just a little bit more about ourselves.

If you have any scenarios that you would like the share with the blog I am all ears.
I have to go. My girlfriend just ripped a ripper.

Watch This Video

A professor of mine showed me this video the other day. I really think all of you should sit down and take the time to watch it.

An Anthropological Introduction to YouTube.

Movie Reviews!

Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist

Review: This movie should have been called Nick and whatever this movie seriously is terrible.

That's all for today folks!

There Goes My Hero

Isn't she great? She's so funny. Ohh...Tina. Ron Bergundy?

The Debate is Tonight!

This isn't meant to be funny, but since Bill O'Reilly is involved it may be impossible not to laugh.

Tonight, the debate appears to be on. That is exciting.
I urge all of you to watch it and know what the candidates are saying FROM THEIR OWN MOUTHS.

Don't watch Fox News, Don't watch CNN.

Listen to their words. Listen to their words.

This just came to me because I saw the Bill O'Reilly/Obama interview.
I am not an ardent Obama supporter but I would like to think I know a terrible interview when I see one.

It just makes me sad that millions of people not only suffer through, but enjoy hearing Mr. O'Reilly speak.

He never lets anyone talk and rationalizes it by saying that he is trying to "speed things along."

An interview is based on the simple question and answer format. Yet, it appears from videos like these that he asks the question and before 6 words leaving the interviewees mouth, he is attacked.

I don't know, maybe it is just me.

All I know is, watch the debate. Listen to these men's words. Make as sound a decision as your can.

News

I am on a recent mission to know exactly what is going on in the world. I know that is nearly impossible since I am reading mostly the San Fran Chronicle and that means I am learning only what they
(The Bad People) feel is important.

I am mostly greeted by headlines that say, "Obama is doing this bad." "Mccain is older than first pyramid." "Presidential Candidates cause quite a ruckus at hotel vending machine!"
You get the picture.

While I know this presidential race is very important, the constant flow of what the candidates are doing is not very exciting. In fact, it is only good for inducing comas.

Just when I thought I had given up on the news, I stumble upon the beauty that is MSNBC. I don't really know what MSNBC means but I think it must stand for: MEN whom Support NEWS BECAUSE it is just plain SILLY!

My reasoning for this is because of a simple headline that they had on their online newspaper. It reads, and I quote: "Man Goes to Court After Butt Stapled Shut."

I don't even have a joke that is good enough to follow that.

For those of you whom don't believe me, haters, I have provided the link:
