That's right. I just found out: I am not the worst person in the world. I know because Keith Olbermann told me. Or anyway he implied as much. Some, many or most of you may know who Keith Olbermann is. I didn't. And don't. But I've spent the last forty-five minutes watching YouTube clips of a segment of his show known as "Worst Persons in the World". Or something like that. It's cheering me up a little. He's a smug little fucker, but I agree with him (it's not difficult), so I like him. I happened on these videos by accident, looking for a video that Megan posted on Facebook. I never found it, but that's sort of beside the point, I think. Look for the 9/30/10 clip for a cute little creepy-perv judge piece and maybe search for the Glenn Beck clip for an awesome drunk 911 call. There was a great one about some politician asshole deliberately blocking the allocation of almost a billion dollars in aid to Haiti, because one million of it was set aside for an office to oversee the distribution of said funds. So, literally, 900-some million dollars that had already been voted on and approved by both houses of Congress was just sitting there for almost a YEAR after the earthquake while millions of people were still homeless in Haiti. Prick.
See? This is why I don't want to know anything. Ever. Anyway, I couldn't find that one again to tell you how to find it. Of course I could post the links myself, except that I can't post the links myself. Don't ask.
Also, even though I'm literally in Dade County, I'm constantly surprised by the sight of people wearing Miami Dolphins gear. Every time, I think, "Who the hell likes the Dolphins?" And then I remember. People who live in Miami like the Dolphins. It's certainly no worse than people in Buffalo favoring the Bills, so I really shouldn't be surprised, but still... Actually, now that I think about it, I'm just as shocked by the sight of people in Bills gear. I've always prided myself on being an equal opportunity snob.
I'm going outside to smoke. It's the only joy I have left in life.
I just checked out Keith Olbermann. Pretty good stuff. I especially liked the one on Sarah Palin (Palinocchio). Sue and I are at Starbucks. Haven't been here in a long time (Sue still comes in faithfully)....no reason to...you're not here, neither is Tariq. The only people I know here today are Derek and Dave (Gwen's dad). By the way, Derek says hi.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I think you should let your hair grow out...just for a change. That's one thing about hair; it can grow out and get arranged in interesting ways, changing the look. I dyed a section of my hair fuscia about 10 years ago - pretty avant- garde for an old broad. No more dye though for me. Stayin away from chemicals, although the ativan they gave me for an MRI a few weeks ago was pretty sweet.
Give the pups a hug from me....and a virtual one for you too.
So you still in Dade county? Going down to the Keys?
I concur. I am constantly surprised that anyone would voluntarily embarrass themselves and their loved ones by wearing football paraphernalia. It's like wearing a shirt that says, "I don't know how to read." Wouldn't that be weird?

Oh my God! I want a shirt that says "I don't know how to read." I want one really bad! I'd probably never wear it though... who cares? I just want it.
