Mary Jane's Last Dance

Oh, Lions. You are the epitome of failure. Even though my Saints have been eliminated from contention, we set new team records today and we fucked youse guys up. It was NFL playing against a junior varsity team really

Congrats on being the first 0-15 team in history, now go all the way. It's the only way you can rebuild. Hey, my baseball team was a win-sucking hopeless cesspool of draft busts and past-their-prime players once, too.

In honor of the perfect showcase from two days ago, I now present the opposite effect, which I dub One Of The Best Price Is Right Clips Of All Time.

Watch this and see how much of a dumbass this broad is. I wonder if she knows how to put her clothes on in the morning.

Today history was made on The Price Is Right. In today's showcase, the guy made a PERFECT bid, something which has never been done. Note also that earlier on the show, he got the item for bid price perfect too. Nuts!

I rewatched The Dark Knight last night, and I have to say, while I loved Iron Man, The Dark Knight blows it out of the water. I was heavily buzzing (borderline drunk) while watching it last night, and all this philosophical stuff started bubbling to the surface of my brain, and right there and then I had the genius idea to write an essay about that movie and thought processes of humanity.

Thesis: One of the exchanges between Batman and Two-Face:
Batman: "He wanted to prove that even someone as good as you could fall."
Two-Face: "And he was right."

The psychology nerd in me has got a raging boner. Yes, I know that sounds dirty in more than one way, but seriously XD

Do you guys like to have fun? Sure you do, unless you're soulless.

Then come check this shit out.

If enough of you are interesting in playing (it gets addictive from the get-go), I can make us a special group to be in :D

You'd think that being a mascot would be one of the safer jobs as far as security goes. Apparently not.

For the record, Raymond is fucking awesome and Kelly made Raymond awesome. Raymond's the AL's own Phillie Phanatic and... this sucks ;____________;

If her successor makes Raymond suck I'm going to be beyond pissed.

Fuck the economy.

(Adding more words because it's strange for me to have a three-word post. That sums up my feelings right about now. Details when I'm not so sleepy.)

RULES:
1. Put your birth month in an entry.
2. Strike out anything that doesn't apply to you.
3. Bold what best applies to you.
4. Put all twelve months under a journal cut.

I was so steeped in October baseball that I'm not into football as much as I was in previous seasons. I've watched a few games -- wow the Saints' defense sucks even harder than last season, and I thought that last year's defensive lineup was sucktacular. Also our special teams bloooowwwwwww! Our kicker blew two games this season. It's kinda sad when you want the rookie to take over.

I just want baseball to come back ;_______;

I'm seeing all this drama on my friends page now and I have absolutely no fucking clue what's going on and honestly, I'm glad I'm not involved in the slightest. I am SO out of the loop now it's quite funny.

Come play Forumwarz with me! It's delightfully offensive and strangely addicting! If you want to friend me on there, I'm Tuesday. In addition to the regular Forumwarz, there's also a multi-player mode, so if we're on at the same time we can make many lulz.

Read a goddamn book, your body needs water so drink that shit. I rarely post youtube videos but this is awesome

The Giants beat the hated Patriots in a nail-biter Super Bowl.
I got married.
The Rays went from perennial cellar-dwellers to one of the ultimate Cinderella teams.
Rays win the pennant.

And now...

BARACK OBAMA IS PRESIDENT.

God I love 2008.

Wow, Family Guy is lame.

In fact, it's been pretty lame ever since it came back from cancellation, to be honest. Some things should just stay canceled, no matter how good they may have been.

It's funny what October baseball can do to a gal. Now we're halfway into football season, and most of the way through college football season -- and I really haven't been following it extensively the way I did last year (or the year before that, for that matter). USF's having a painfully average season, and with the loss to Cincy, have dropped off the rankings. The Saints defense sucks yet again this year, holding back our terrific offense (BREESUS <3). Deuce tested positive for drugs, or really, drug-masking diuretics. Why, Deuce, why? :(

And that's about it really.

Uh, how much longer 'til baseball season starts up again? April? FUUUUUUUUUCK. Maybe they'll have spring training games on teevee. I would go to the spring training games if they weren't like an hour and a half to two hours away now.


Oh yeah, and King of the Hill got cancelled, too. At least they'll have enough episodes left to run through '09, but that breaks my heart. At least the show was consistently good throughout its lifespan, unlike the Simpsons or Family Guy.


Project Runway's done 'til next year. In fact, all the good shows on Bravo have wrapped up for the season, leaving me with atrocities like Real Housewives (gag). This year's USA version of Kitchen Nightmares hasn't been living up to expectations (the editing is worse oh god and I didn't think it could have gotten any worse). Once South Park's latest run is over in early December, I really won't have much to watch on the telly. I miss baseball. :(

Maybe I'll go out and hike more.

I'm sick and tired of seeing this epidemic of apostrophe misuse. This is mainly directed toward the field of journalism, which is dumbing down quicker than children's television. Can someone say "Tinky-Winky" for me?


RIGHT: One of a parent's main fears is for her child to go missing.
WRONG: Parent's all around the world want their children to be safe and happy.

An apostrophe denotes possession. In the first sentence, fear belongs to the parent. The parent possesses fear, therefore an apostrophe is appropriate. In the second sentence, parents should be plural, because it is talking about multiple parents. There is no possession declared in this sentence.

Here's another example.

RIGHT: The Rays are going to the World Series.
WRONG:The Ray's are perhaps one of the most talented teams in baseball.

"Rays" is a team name. Most of the time, team names are plural (there are exceptions, such as the Alabama Crimson Tide and the Utah Jazz). The usage of the apostrophe is wrong in the second sentence because not only is there no possession denoted in the sentence, the correct way to use an apostrophe for most team names would be:

RIGHT: Things are going the Rays' way.
RIGHT: The Saints' defense and special teams are terrible. Gramatica should be booed off the field.
RIGHT: Who would have thought that the Patriots' offense would fall flat this year?

And here's another wrong example:
WRONG: Wow, the Ram's suck this year.

Here's one more.

RIGHT: It's a wonderful day in the neighborhood.
WRONG: It's fur is matted and dirty.

Alas, this is one of the most common grammatical problems. It's is a contraction that means "it is". Read your sentence out loud. If "it is" does not work in your sentence, it will be "its".

Here's the second sentence with "it is" substituted for "it's". Doesn't this sound funny?
It is fur is matted and dirty.

If you said that out loud, we'd laugh at you. If you wrote that, we'd also laugh at you.

Please think of your third-grade education before writing. I'm pretty sure all of you passed the third grade. Please write like you have.

THE RAYS ARE GOING TO THE WORLD SERIES OMFG

I AM SO SERIOUSLY STOKED RIGHT NOW

OMFGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG



Ridin' down the highway
Goin' to a show
Stop in all the by-ways
Playin' rock 'n' roll
Gettin' robbed
Gettin' stoned
Gettin' beat up
Broken boned
Gettin' had
Gettin' took
I tell you folks
It's harder than it looks

It's a long way to the top
If you wanna rock 'n' roll

I wish it didn't have to come down to this, but it did.

You want me?
Well, come on and break the door down
You want me?
Fucking come on and break the door down
I'm ready

plus the obligatory

Don't stop believin'
Hold on to the feeeeeeeeeeeelinnnnnnnnng

I've known this for a long time, but bagpipes in rock music are like the most awesome thing ever.

So nice I have to mention it twice!

This speaks truth.

Something both Rays fans (me) and Red Sox fans (that blog) can wholeheartedly agree on (other than Yankees hate). We should team up to launch the TBS announcers into the sun. And Frank, too. We should have done that today if that were to be effective for tomorrow's game though. I wish there was some way TBS could know how many household televisions are on mute because their announcing is atrocious.

I pledge this, humble sirs and madames:

Have Rays-oriented commentary in this area (free Dewayne and Joe PLEASE). Have Red Sox-oriented commentary in the New England area. Everywhere else gets a couple of unbiased, intelligent announcers. All should know WHAT THE FUCK THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT. These guys on TBS? They have absolutely no fucking clue. They think we win games because of catwalks and our former sucky GM WHO HASN'T BEEN WITH THE TEAM IN TWO YEARS (ROFL), they think the Sox win their games because David Ortiz is clutch and the green monster (also ROFL).

thank god for radio broadcast, that shit is going on mute.

edit: I think, with all goofiness intended, that this series will also decide who wins the presidency. You heard it here first. Guess who represents who (the colors match up to party colors). If that happens I'll be all like :O :O :O :O haha.

I CANNOT FUCKING BELIEVE IT.

I CANNOT FUCKING BELIEVE IT.

HULK SMASH. HULK SMASH YOU IN THE NADS.

That is all.

PS: TBS and its jokes of "sportscasters" need to go fuck themselves for being the worst jinxes on earth plus knowing nothing about baseball. And that fatass Frank too. Your show sucks buddy and no one is going to watch it no matter how many times they repeat your horrid commercial with your flat, boring, hackneyed, overdone Dubya impersonation. And seeing adverts pop up for your godawful travesty of a sketch comedy show IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FUCKING GAME make me want to reach into my television set and punch you square in your bloated face. Words cannot describe how much I just want you to fall off the face of the planet and into total obscurity.

Also a great big fuck you to whoever that guy is who wears those ridiculous '70's looking suits that look like they came straight from the Anchorman set. He looks more ridiculous than Rod Roddy ever did, and Rod Roddy was made of awesome anyway, so it didn't matter how many sequinned blazers or goofy-looking ties he wore, at least Rod Roddy didn't jinx the fucking game by talking to Chuck Lamar, and the only good thing Chuck Lamar ever did was sign BJ Upton and Carl Crawford. I say good riddance; TBS wanted to hop all over his boner.

And what a boner it was. And not the happy, excited kind of boner.

I know what TBS stands for! Talk Bullshit!




... maybe they just wanted to win the series at home. Go get 'em on Saturday. I'll be watching, and awaiting nervously.
