You don’t need to see their tax returns.
These aren’t the CEOs you’re looking for.
They can go about their business.
Move along.

Sorry…I just had to post what I saw on Twitter today:

Um…sure. Ok.
Actually, this response was much better:

A guy came by yesterday selling a cleaner than works wonders on just about everything. I stared at the sun for a second, hoping I could muster up a sneeze I could aim in his direction and ask, “How is it with germs?” No dice.
Awsum. So happy this old clip is out there.
This is so unfair to the rest of us.
“We are deeply concerned that Mr. Sorrentino’s association with our brand could cause significant damage to our image.”
This almost encourages these ignoranuses and the wannabes waiting in the wings to amp up their behavior even higher. Why not take the money from AF and invest in some higher end clothing, hoping those guys will pay you even more to not wear their clothes? Sounds both reasonable and logical to me.
Now, I hope I’ve never taken my obnoxiousness to The Situation’s level, but I think I could have given him a run for his money on the occasional Saturday night at the turn of the century.
I’m old and have gray hair…not at all the image they want to portray for their brand. If I had any kind of platform at all, I’d go out and dress from head to toe in AF stuff. I’d make sure I was mic’d every time I grunted when transitioning from standing to sitting, and I’d make sure their logo was prominently displayed every time I bent over to pick something up and grab my lower back to aid me in standing upright again.
Cha-ching!
I’m not sure what AF expected when they targeted this market.
I’m Mike Jones (who?) Mike Jones
The one and only, you cain’t clone me
Got a lotta haters and a lotta homies
Some friends, some phony
Let’s break down the example Mike Jones gives us here and how it applies to blogging. We’ll take it line by line.
I’m Mike Jones (who?) Mike Jones
Unlike other rappers, Mike Jones uses his real name and isn’t afraid to put it out there. He’s not “Mike Ice” or “MC Jones”. He’s Mike Jones. What? Didn’t get that? Not sure who he is? Just ask him…he’ll tell you…over and over. He’s Mike Jones.
Don’t be afraid to stand behind who you really are.
The one and only, you cain’t clone me
Mike Jones is himself, and there is no other Mike Jones.
If you are blogging from your unique perspective, no one else can adequately imitate your style.
Got a lotta haters and a lotta homies
Not everyone appreciates Mike Jones’s style, but that’s ok with him. A lot of other people do.
Everyone doesn’t have to love your blogging style.
Some are real, some are phony
Mike Jones is aware that all of the people who love him aren’t genuine in their love; they just want something from him. That’s ok with Mike Jones because the phonies still add to his mystique. They still buy albums and say his name…Mike Jones.
Traffic is traffic.
Now, just pretend you read this five years ago. Back then…
Classic.
If you’re going to dream, dream big. Any idiot can run from the cops or get involved in a car chase with them. It takes a special person to attempt to swim from them.
“He just took off, and he got a good head start,” DeMorat said. “He was in a foot chase for a few blocks. Then he ran straight into the water.”
Usually, the mugshot section is the best feature on the FloridaToday website, but the stories behind the violations are pretty boring. Today the tables have turned.
I’m so excited about this upcoming royal wedding. Really…seriously. I am. It just got me thinking about the great weddings in history of American Royalty.
Jesse Ventura’s commentary in the first video is classic:
- “Do the rings go on fingers or in noses?”
- “Looks like two carp in the Mississippi River going after the same piece of corn”

And of course, who could forget this sequence that changed history and ushered in the McMahon/Helmsley era.

If you didn’t get teary-eyed watching those two videos, I got two words for ya…
Remember paper football? It’s that game we played in middle school where we’d fold paper into a triangle and bump it back and forth across the table until part of the “ball” was over the edge of the table but not falling off. That game curbed much violence at lunch time.
Now you can get one of these table top kits and play for real
I know what you are thinking…”Can’t I just play with the paper football app on my iPhone?”, “What about the risk of paper cuts?”, “What if I’m not able to reach up to the fast food window to get my dinner because I’m sore from playing paper football?”
These are all legitimate concerns, but there’s no other way to get the thrill of paper football without throwing all caution to the wind and jumping into the game.
Possible uses:
- Team building money at work purchases one for your office. You can run tournaments at lunch time.
- Share the joys of paper football with your children. This way, you won’t have to go outside or move your body too much, but can still claim quality sports time.
- Drinking game at what used to be a Super Bowl party. Loser has to do a shot when he gets scored on and has to stay at the table.
- Perfect gift for someone who is committed to sitting in a chair every Sunday from August to December no matter what.
Don’t be surprised to find many athletes from the professional leagues turning to paper football to stay sharp during the lockout.
This is pretty cool. My guess is that there aren’t any other departments on campus that could afford to do this. When I say “do this”, I’m not talking about building the Training Center…of course they couldn’t do that.
I mean that I doubt they could afford to produce this video. Maybe the Film Studies Department could do it on the backs of undergrad labor as a special project.
Was this filmed when Barack Obama was a community organizer? The abundance of gray hair makes me think it’s pretty recent, but the quality of the video makes me think it was shot in the hallway of a 3,000 seat arena somewhere in flyover country to promote the “big event, right out there at the fairgrounds on November 2…we couldn’t have it on October 26th ’cause the flea market is that week.”
Watch and learn. THIS is how you correctly do a rasslin’ promo:
When other people tell you that “IT COULD BE WORSE! HA, HA … YOU COULD BE DEAD!!!” I want to throw a goat at them.
Read the rest.
At least at the University of Georgia, where this anit-Wal-mart column was published in the student newspaper:
Many corporations are firing American workers to cut production costs. They then charge American consumers more money than what it took to produce their products.
You got that? Companies are charging people more money for a product than it cost to produce the product!!! How disgraceful!!!
No mention if the article whether or not there are some companies that aren’t firing workers and are still charging consumers more than it took to produce their products. Maybe Crystal Villarreal could do her master’s thesis on that research.

I’ve spent many a sleepless night staring at the screen of my TRaSh-80 writing BASIC wondering exactly how/why Radio Shack still exists. There can’t be that many electrical engineering students out there who are rushing to the mall at 8:30 pm to try to find parts to build an ill-designed power amplifier before their 9:40 am class. Who shops there the rest of the day?
“I’d like to capitalize on the store’s strong points, but I honestly don’t know what they are,” Day said. “Every location is full of bizarre adapters, random chargers, and old boom boxes, and some sales guy is constantly hovering over you. It’s like walking into your grandpa’s basement. You always expect to see something cool, but it never delivers.”
I think it could be a money laundering front.
