worst work phrase ever…

30/09/2004

“Do you have an ETA on that?”

I *hate it when people say that. It bugs. I’m not an airplane… I don’t have an “arrival” time. This ain’t FEDEX, bitch, this is web design. Maybe if you stopped requesting changes I’d have an “ETA on that”. Sorry, venting.

Anywho.

Presidential debate is tonight!! I don’t think I’ve ever been excited about that. Ever. First it’s buying Naturalizer and Easy Spirit shoes, now it’s looking forward to the ensuing presidential debate… and using words like “ensuing”. What is WRONG with ME?! I’m 22!! I should be passed out on a frat house lawn somewhere! Pictures of me passed-out, drunk and naked on a park bench in a puddle of my own vomit should be getting sent has chain mail! Sigh…

So I’m expecting Bush to get whacked… get it… bushwhacked. :laugh:

I’ve got $20 that says he’ll use the phrase “…and the world is a safer place for it” (interchangable with “… and america is a better place for it”, “it” being the war, or anything else Bush has “done”). He’ll also say “nucular” instead of “nuclear” and totally fuck up a well-known saying or quote (“The early bird catches the oil rig and inherits daddy’s blood money…”). Whatever. I flick off people with those “W04″ stickers. Is that mean? Or I just cut them off and wash my windshield to splash them. Is that mean? Ya damn right it is! That’s what you get for driving your Hummer and putting that sticker on it. So there! Take that DUBYA!

hurricane season

17/09/2004

I heard a psychic/medium/channeller say that all of these hurricanes and tornadoes lately are a direct result of the negative energy we’re putting out into the world. Mother Earth isn’t too happy with the evil vibes, so she retaliates with natural disasters.

Here’s my extension on that theory.

All of the hurricanes are in Florida. See, Momma Earth knew what was going on the WHOLE time. She knew George Bush fixed the Florida votes back in 2000 with his brother Jeb (who also happens to be the Governer of FL), then he went and declared his war on terrorism. You can’t put out that much negativity and expect KARMA not to come back and whoop yo’ ass. So Mother Nature’s coming backwith a vengeance, and trying to take out the state that did this whole country wrong. Not that everyone in Florida should have to suffer. That sucks. But Mother Earth can’t exactly make a hurricane or tropical storm that can pinpoint houses and individual people.

So that’s my extended hurricane Frances/Charley/Ivan/ and newly added Jeanne theory. Any additions?

quite possibly the worst thing ever.

16/09/2004

ever. it is quite possibly the worst thing to ever set upon my ears.

britney spears sings… my prerogative.

omg. it is SO wrong… like cutting my hair into a mullett wrong. like acid-wash jeans wrong. it’s so wrong, i can’t even think of the words to describe its wrongness and what a hideous mess it is.

if I were bobby brown, right now I’d do a line of coke and go beat her down.

have you heard this shit? literally. shit. it’s shit. it’s scary that it’s going to be playing on the radio eleventy million times a day. please boycott radio with me. it’s just not fair. who listens to this crap? Let’s start a revolution. Okay, a mini-revolution. Or a coalition. A Coalition of the Willing! or… More of a committee… or a group of people. Or just me. Whatever. I gotta get every 6th grader in the world and make them listen to Songs in the Key of Life by Stevie Wonder. Stop this madness! Death to bad radio!

beautiful weekend

13/09/2004

…filled with beautiful people. All this weekend I was at the Black Business Expo at the Los Angeles Convention Center with my compadres O2(go buy stuff, it’s good!). Needless to say, it was a lot of work, but it was a great experience and a great couple of days for the company.

…and then it went downhill.

After leaving the convention center, I had a little mishap. I don’t feel like retyping it, so just read the IM* I had with my sister this morning. (*the following content has been edited so you don’t think I’m a complete dumbass)

Holly: the la convention center has a really weird surface in the parking structure, so when you’re driving in there your tires squeek really loud. so i was leaving, and it was REALLY loud, so loud it scared me so i got out cause i thought my tires popped or something like when they have those nails in the ground in case you try to go backwards. so someone pulled up next to me and he was like “don’t worry about it, it’s just the floor and youre tires, you’re fine.”

Tina: lol

Holly: so i kept driving, but it was really loud. I got over this speed bump, but it was really hard, i finally got out of the garage, and i looked in my rearview mirror, and there was a tire
I’m like, fuck. I lost a tire on a speed bump.

Holly: … but how am I still driving if I lost a tire?

Holly: So i park my car, and look at it, and all 4 tires are in tact… so i’m thinking, fuck, my spare tire just came up from under the car. so i run back into the parking garage and grab the tire. put it in the trunk, and drive home.

Tina: dang girl, so it was your tire after all?

Holly: there’s more. lol

Tina: lol

Tina: i’m already laughing out loud

Holly: so I tell mommy and milton this morning, and milton looks at the tire and the bolt that was on the ground that i now had in my trunk and milton says “That ain’t your tire, your tire’s in the trunk”

Tina: LMAOOOO

Holly: he lifted up the material at the bottom of my trunk and showed me my spare. so, apparently, I ran over someone’s tire and dragged it hard enough under my car to physically MOVE the speed bump I went over out of place.

Holly: and ran back in, and grabbed a tire that was never mine. I hope they don’t have that on tape.

Holly: I swear, I never saw the tire though!!! Why would I purposely run over a tire? so someone out there is missing a tire. sorry.

Tina: sorry, me and tomoko are laughing so bad right now

Tina: i’m crying

Tina: that’s the funniest thing i’ve heard in weeks

Holly: i was scurred. lol
Holly: i’m all driving home at 45MPH waiting for my transmission to drop out from under my car

Tina: LOLOL tomoko heard me laughing and I told her what you did and she was bustin up

Holly: aww man. lol i better blog that.

Tina: i’m glad you’re ok. you never knew your spare was in your trunk? most small cars have them there

Holly: I thought it was underneath my car!

Tina: you’re funny. don’t even know your car

still high

7/09/2004

… off of , yes, another Prince concert.

Don’t be jealous.

This was the best of the three. If I had the money, you best believe I would fly up to Oakland to catch the last 3 shows. lol I swear, even if you’re not a Prince fan, you couldn’t NOT like his live show. It’s so completely and udderly stupid and ridiculous to be that great live. We weren’t as close to the stage, but we had a much better view since we didn’t have to straight look up the whole time. Last time it was like being in the 1st row at the movies. Your neck get all sore. This time we had a perfect view of the big screen AND the stage.

Damn he’s sexy.

I’ve seen him three times on this tour, and this was by far the best show. How many people can say they’ve seen the same artist 3 times on ONE tour, and have gotten a different show EACH and EVERY time? I’m sure Usher or Petey Pablo ain’t changin’ it up like that. Viva la REAL MUSIC. Muerte a la FAKE BEATS.
