Random and Largely Unrelated Thoughts III: Return of the Random

12.17.08

 

Real men don’t drink bottled water when there’s a perfectly good tap available.

They should make a Snuggie with four arm holes. You know, for cold-weather sex.

No matter what anyone says, the American Office will never be as good as the BBC Office.

For that matter, Heath Ledger will never be as cool as Jack Nicholson. Don't get me wrong, Heath is cool... but he's no Jack.

Daniel Craig... is almost as cool as Sean Connery.

Pierce Brosnan will probably have a second wind in his career. Wait and see.

Pam Anderson was hot on Home Improvement, but Heidi was hotter. And yet Anderson is famous, and Heidi has vanished.

Sorry guys, but Huey Louis is music for douchebags.

That said, Back to the Future is one of the best movies ever made.

Those “Free Credit Report dot com” ads are infuriating. Everyone should boycott them so that they don’t have the money to subject us to their mind-numbing insipid advertisements. Man, how do those jerks stay in business? My old roommate actually went to their site. Yes, he was an asshole.

No matter where you go, there always seems to be at least one asshole around.

I had a friend who once wore a tuxedo t-shirt to a fancy awards dinner. It was funny, but a bit embarrassing. He's in jail now. Not for that, though.

It’s odd when a girl’s profile says that she’s in a relationship, yet there is nary a single photo to be found of her and her boyfriend on her profile. And she never mentioned him when you met her last weekend, either. Hmm.

Rainy days in Los Angeles County should be declared countywide holidays, and everyone should get the day off. It's a rare and vital occurrence. Let's celebrate it.

Weed is ok in my book. You just gotta smoke it at the appropriate times.

Like on holidays celebrating the rain.

Either complain about the rain, or complain about the fires that have driven people out of their homes. You can't complain about both.

Sometimes, you just gotta do your own thing. You gotta follow your own path.

Happy birthday, Alex.

Getting your hands muddy every now and then is good for your soul. Feeling wet grass with your bare feet is good too.

Planting things is good for your soul. When you are responsible for the life of a plant, you learn a lesson in responsibility. Being a pet owner is an even bigger lesson in responsibility. One should master both lessons prior to attempting parenthood.

There's something beautiful about a rainy day. Rainy days in tropical climates are particularly beautiful.

Thank god it's raining.
