I've been away from the blog for quite some time now and I have no excuse, just an apology. I'm sorry for deserting you. It (probably) won't happen again. I won't make promises I can't keep, but I will try to post more than once a month from this point forward in 2010.
I don't really have any topic in particular that I feel the need to talk about today, but I decided that it might be fun (for me) to give you all a peak into the clusterfuck that is my mind. Enjoy:
Recently I've discovered a few things that bring me so much happiness, I don't even think there are actual words to describe my feelings. Here is just a small sampling of these things:
1. Tegan and Sara. I have my friend Maddie (shout out!) to thank for bringing this music into my life and subsequently creating a Youtube monster, but I'll get to that in a moment! As you can see from our Rave this week, I am a bit obsessed with this band. Putting aside the fact that they are Canadian, everything about them is AMAZING. I suggest you follow the link above and discover the magic that is Tegan and Sara's music. (If we are friends in real life and you do not go listen to/fall in love with this music, we probably can't be friends anymore, just sayin'). Not only is the music beyond fantastic, but they also make hilarious videos, which I suggest you also watch if you want to remain my friend. Be sure you listen to "Where Does the Good Go" "Walking With a Ghost" "Knife Going In" "Back In Your Head" "Hell" "Alligator" "The Ocean" "Living Room" "Not Tonight" and basically all of their other songs!
2. Youtube. I have never really been big on Youtube before now. I used to find it annoying and basically, just a ridiculous waste of time. But recently I have discovered some fabulous aspects of this video sharing site. Firstly, I love anything that allows morons the opportunity to voice their ignorance anonymously (That's what we call sarcasm, folks! And the fact that we here at Superiority Complex also allow our readers to post anonymous comments is what we call irony). I would say that reading the 'comments' section underneath some of my favorite videos has taken up 90 to 95 percent of the last two weeks of my life. The things people will actually write absolutely fascinate me! Another thing I love is that you have to sign up for an account to watch certain videos (Lady Gaga/Beyonce-Telephone, anyone?). It's almost as though Youtube thinks that kids today are angels who need to be protected because they, of course, have not seen the horrors of Chat Roulette or E! channel programming after 9pm. Kudos to you, Youtube, for having faith in the youth of the world. I've digressed horribly from my actual point here, sorry! The point was that Youtube IS actually a gigantic waste of time, but I've been sucked into loving it just as much as the rest of you chuckleheads out there. Congratulations.
3. Catch phrases. I am obsessed with catch phrases, not to mention the game, Catch Phrase! If you've never played it, you're probably not living your life in a normal, respectable manner. Find it, gather friends, play it, love it. Immediately! Once again, the game was not the point here, sorry. The point.............oh right! I love using catch phrases in my everyday life. Not just your regular, ordinary, vanilla catch phrases though. I like to spice things up and create new catch phrases within my small subset of friends and then slowly but surely spread them throughout the world! Not really the world, per se, but sometimes they really do catch on. I will now share with you a few of my all time favorite (made up) catch phrases:
- Dennis Quaiding It. Translation: driving irresponsibly fast. Etymology: the movie Vantage Point. Example: "I'll try not to be late, I'm gonna Dennis Quaid it over there."
- Oh My Gaga. Translation: OMG. Etymology: What The Buck show on, you guessed it, Youtube. Example: "Oh My Gaga, I was Dennis Quaiding it the other night and I almost wrecked and died!"
- Smoothie Fest 2010. Translation: Having a five alarm meltdown. Etymology: Some drunken night involving my co-blogger, Rock. Example: "Are we about to have Smoothie Fest 2010 again? Cuz I'm gonna need a drink first."
Like I said, nothing truly groundbreaking today. Just a clusterfuck of craziness in my head. I hope you all enjoyed it as much as I do 24 hours a day. (Also, I hope you enjoyed how often I used parentheses in this post and the fact that I used the term 'clusterfuck' twice! Well, three times now).
Fist Pump!

Given the stellar recommendation, I've followed the link and am investigating Tegan and Sara. I'll let you know. Sooo glad I just talked to you on skype btw. Also, insane debate vote: I'm gonna go on a whim and say vanilla
ReplyDeleteAlways chocolate. It's not even a Frosty unless it's chocolate.

Chocolate is the original and thats my answer.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I don't know if you're aware that I've never played catchphrase. Is the beginning of a schedule for the short precious moments we see each other this summer....why yes, yes I think it is.
