is it too much to ask?

*taps mic*

Twas wondering:

why is it when Hollywood makes movies about angels, they speak like Princess Diana and look like footballers for Manchester United? would it kill them to make a movie where an angel looks like me?

that being said, i'm probably gonna see this movie. because the angels look like footballers for Manchetser United.

*drops mic*

assholes and pool tables.

how about a little more Us versus Them humor, with a twist of racism and classism?

i stumbled across this juxtaposition earlier on a humor blog. and while i can agree the first video is blood-curdling in it's ridiculousness....the second video made a point i'm not entirely comfortable with laughing about.



the humor blog i found this on describes the next video as such:

This evening (Tosh) had a segment called “Whites Rule”.


Tosh.0Thurs, 10pm / 9c
Reviewing Tosh's Assets

so if this is whiteness, then the earlier video is blackness, right?

i am in now way saying that the actions of the kid in the first video made any sense at all. after a while i was beginning to wonder if he was gonna pull a stack out of his hat and his ass crack.

but what makes this not even funny to me is that in order to really find the second video funny, it seems like you gotta act like something very major and important happened in this country that laid the foundation for the difference in thinking with regards to wealth building, capitalism, and education.

i had almost the same reaction recently while watching a commercial for Lowe's or Home Depot, which showed a WWII era veteran and his family moving into their first home. the commercial showed that through it all, Lowe's has been there for the family.

the veteran and his family in the commercial were white, which isn't too surprising. but what stood out to me is that during that time period, when GIs were coming back from war and were buying homes, there were whole subdivision that would not sell to black GIs. it didn't matter that they had just found for this country, they weren't allowed to live in lovely houses in the suburbs like the whites.

now if i know that, wouldn't you think that someone at the ad agency that made the commercial knew that too?

so all this being said, i think i'll be missing Tosh.0 on Comedy Central. i'm pretty sure his jokes are gonna leave me a little cold.

horror movie fans! listen up!!

there’s a horror movie that’s gonna come out later called The Sacred. Looks very scaaaaaaaary.

also, i finally saw commercials for one movie I heard about a few months ago called Drag Me To Hell. i noticed they picked the least wack parts of the trailer to make the commercial.

DO NOT BE TRICKED!! THE TRAILER IS HORRIBLE!!

and besides, Derry the Mac Guy is the boyfriend. he ain’t no good! he always makes that same, Disney movie expression of shock. that ain’t emoting, Derry.

that is all.

it's like it's 1980 all over again!!

when i was small, the commercials for the movie friday the 13th would be enough to scare the lights out of me. i told myself i never wanted to see this movie and hated accidentally thinking about it before i went to sleep.

welp....here we go again!

click the picture for good times.
