I was flipping through a recent issue of Rolling Stone and came across an image I found disturbing. Right in the middle of the mag was a picture of BB King, John Mayer and Eric Clapton. Even typing that now, my head is singing "One of these things just don't belong here".
At one point in the last few years did John Mayer prove himself worthy enough of a musician to be lumped in with the likes of King and Clapton? Was "Wonderland" some sort of display of musical prowess that went over my head completely? Cause I gotta say, it sounded like formula AC shit. Did I miss something? Is he actually good and nobody told me? Why does he keep getting mentioned as being one of the greatest guitarists when there are PLENTY of musicians out there that could play circles around him? (Okay, not too sure what that phrase means, but it was more relevant than running in circles...)
Or maybe I shouldn't even trust RS. They did, after all, grace that cover with Zac Effron.

Another fabulous clip...

Tonight started a new season of The Hills, or one of my guilty pleasures as I like to call it. Having shamefully kept up with all the tabloid bickering in-between seasons, I was fully amped to start off this season and got not only one new episode but TWO today. TWO. Sure, I'm sleep deprived, but I absolutely had to see them both.
That Spencer...ugh...I just wish someone would kick him in his stupid grinning face.
This season looks fantastic with drama.
I'm so ashamed.

People of the world-

Please STOP using Avril Lavigne's "Girlfriend" song to highlight anything that may even hint of a relationship of sorts. I don't need to hear it on every TV show promo, every MTV show, and every movie promo. How the hell this song even applied to a movie about two heterosexual men faking a homosexual relationship is beyond baffling.

So, please- get more creative and original in your musical selection.

That is all.

I could list all the issues I had with this movie, but who has the time? Bad acting, weak dialog, plot holes, and poor character development about sum it up.

And then there is the issue that Lindsay Lohan plays a stripper who never actually removes any clothes. Then there was the amputee sex, a phrase that will most definitely skew keyword searches yet again.

Anyway, I'm thinking the story wasn't half bad, it was just executed poorly.

Dude: What do you mean you like hockey? Are you Canadian?

Girl: No. I wish I was.

Dude: Well, you CAN'T be.

A strong argument with many valid points. Take that hockey-lover!

Honestly, what the hells is MSN trying to pull by plastering this banner all over the internet:

Do I NEED to see that and further freak myself out about stupid shit like that? Well I got news for you MSN! I'm not clicking on it. No freaking way. Your attempt at driving site hits through morbid curiosity is not gonna work on me!

Now maybe it's just me, but I find it quite loss-of-appetite inducing to have someone's ass right next to my face. It's even worse with multiple asses. Am I overreacting or is it an incredibly bastard-esque move to have a freaking reunion right next to someone else's table. I didn't know these people nor did I give a shit about what was going on in their lives.
Surprisingly, I refrained from starting a thing about it. You see, I was going to ask our waiter to tell them to move...unfortunately, our waiter rarely came around and he let me down in my moment of need. Thanks buddy.
