Hey look! I'm catching up on everything! Here are a few pop culture related items I actually wrote
down over the past couple of weeks:
n
What, what, WHAT the hell with Jesse James and
that woman with the tattoo on her face, and with the other whores and strippers
with whom he apparently cheated on Sandra Bullock? When I mentioned this to Stephan, he said “why
does this surprise you—that guy seems like such a White Trash bubba, I can’t
imagine why he WOULDN’T be a neo-Nazi.”
So, there’s that. My thing is—
he goes from the lovely, smart, and successful Sandra Bullock to the very
bottom of the barrel? He could do
better, right? I mean, don’t cheat on
Sandra Bullock in the first place, but if you do it, could you not pick someone
better looking and more respectable? Yuuuuck.
n
Not that this makes any difference, but I have
never watched “Dancing With the Stars,” or “American Idol,” or any show that
involves performance, because I totally hate watching people be uncomfortable
and/ or embarrassed. Can’t STAND
IT. Also couldn’t watch “Borat,” or some
parts of “The Office,” or “Da Ali G show.”
So…incredibly…uncomfortable. I
hate it! I was going to make an
exception to see if Kate Gosselin fell down on Dancing With the Stars last
night, but as soon as I tried to turn it on, my skin started to crawl. Nope—my loathing of Kate Gosselin could not
overcome this feeling. Speaking of Jon
and Kate, who knew they’d both become so unlikable, right? I don’t know who to root for anymore.
n
I must be old, because until he appeared on
Saturday Night Live, I had absolutely no idea who Justin Bieber was or why I
should care about him. Here was the
conversation between me and the kid who works in my grocery store over the
weekend:
o
Me: “Who’s
Justin Bieber?”
o
Store guy:
“Some gay singer.”
As an addendum, I will say that I
watched him on Saturday Night Live, and I was not impressed AT ALL. I do not think that kid is that talented,
and I don’t care whose eight-year old I offend with this opinion. All I can say is, I hope Justin Bieber’s
people are investing well.
