I’ve been intrigued by those “Nike Plus / Resolution” commercials. I would love to see Lebron be a ball boy for some tennis chick. So I decided to investigate further and see if this Nike Plus campaign was legit. I browsed through their over-flashy site and decided that the whole ordeal is just a big ‘ol waste of money.
Sure it’s nice being able to track you’re workouts, but I do that now. It’s called a pencil and paper. They are simply pushing iPod Nanos, overpriced shoes, and Nike shirts (probably made by little mexican kids for chicken feed as payment) on people. It’s a big marketing stunt. Don’t waste your money. Go buy a pencil, paper, and pedometer. It will cost you $40 bucks total instead of the $400-$500 you will spend to join Nike Plus. Read The Rest >>
I am still not sure how I feel about Sarah Silverman. After her appearance on Leno, I thought she was vulgar and not funny. After watching this holiday video I guess she moved up a notch, but still has a long way to go.
Also, a quick rant - Does anyone else find that during the holidays jewish comedians overplay the Hanukkah card? I mean, you don’t see black comedians playing the Kwanza card or Christian comedians (?) playing the christmas card (Maybe you do, but I don’t see it).
Don’t get me wrong, I am in no way a racist, but it seems that jewish comedians fall back on Hanukkah as an easy “bit” when they have nothing better. Nothing against the religion, the holiday, or the people - but my beef is with the comedians who beat a dead Hanukkah horse every year. WE GET IT - you don’t “DO” santa and you get presents for a whole week, not one day, etc. Get some new material, please.
Maybe my hatred for Sarah Silverman as a comedian clounds my mind. Where is a God damn pensive when you need one.
Her clip:
Have a Happy Hanukkah, Merry Christmas and a Krazy Kwanza everyone.
I don’t know about you, but nine times out of 10 when an actor plays an athlete in a movie, they do a subpar performance. The other night I was watching this soccer movie called “GOAL”. It was about some Mexican kid who worked his way to playing for Newcastle United blah blah blah. The movie sucked, don’t waste your time.
What pissed me off was that the actor had no soccer abilities whatsoever. Anyone who plays could easily see that. I would rather an athlete trying to act than an actor failing at playing an athletic role. Let’s be honest, anyone can act - it’s not hard. In fact, I have been acting for the last 5 mintues and you had no idea. See, it’s cake.
There are a few exceptions, however.
Emilio Estevez as Gordon Bombay in “The Mighty Ducks”. - With that triple deke prefection, he DEFINITELY pulled off the role. Charlie Sheen as Rick “The Wild Thing” Vaughn in both “Major League” movies. - His 100 mph fastball (The Terminator) and his badass look reminded me of Nolan Ryan in his prime. Keanu Reeves as Shane Falco in “The Replacements” - He threw like Tony Romo, nailed the role.
Clearly some actors should just not do sport movies. What killer movie sports stars did I miss?
I get these MySpace friend requests all of the time from girls who are way outta my league. They are usually models or porn stars and they are gorgeous. Clearly, these aren’t real people. 99% of the time it is some kid who is trying to bait you into thinking that this “MySpace goddess” is really into you. Yea, OK.
Then you check out her page and find nothing there. BUT WAIT! She has a webcam link! OMFG! You can go watch her strip and probably do her. You continue through some confusing sign up pages where you aren’t sure if you just paid for something, but it doesn’t matter because you are about to basically get laid my friend. Life is good. Then it hits you that you have been duped yet again and now have to go through a lengthy cancellation process. But not before you rub one out. You gotta make it somewhat worth it.
Oh Dear God. It’s times like this when I question people’s ability to walk and chew gum at the same time. I’m pretty sure a 6 year old could have figured this question out, but not this girl. I’m amazed she was even able to dial the phone number to the show…but then again, she is British. (Just kidding all of my British readers…I love you almost as much as I love Arsenal football…Check out my Thierry Henry Fansite).
So I stumbled across a video of some kids getting a Nintendo Wii for a gift. While it is not nearly as funny as the N64 Kid or the Pokemon Kid, it did make me laugh a bit.
I have an issue with this video, however. Look at the size of the kids. It looks like they should have been given a soccer ball or football instead of a new gaming system. When the one kid starts yelling “Wii, Wii” he reminds me of a squealing pig. You know they are going to be sitting in front of that thing for the next 6 months and probably are not going to see the light of day. I am not trying to rip the kid…trust me, I was a fat kid growing up. It’s just a sad example of where society is moving. Parents sit their children down in front of the TV / Nintendo Wii / whatever and the kids are missing out on a ton of other stuff.
Of course I say this as I sit on my couch, watching TV while typing on my laptop (which is pretty much what I have been doing most of the day).
As much as I love plastic surgery for all the money it makes me online, I think it is pathetic that people have it done to the extent of many celebrities - with two exceptions.
1. If you need plastic surgery due to an accident or some event that caused disfigurement.
2. Boob Jobs.
Big boobs are always a plus, but that is probably my pants talking
People are what they are and just need to accept that. I see stuff like this Paris Hilton picture and it just blows my mind that someone would want to change their body this much just to feel prettier. I don’t think she is attractive either way, but I would respect her more without all of the plastic surgery.
Celebrities are superficial and Paris Hilton may be the worst. End Rant.
