Hello from san francisco
United sucksEvery single time I fly United Airlines, I get delayed. Something happens. Every. Single. Time. I’m not making this up. Every. Time. Here I am, at the Wichita airport, delayed, 2.5 hrs thanks to a problem with the plane’s landing gear. I like landing gear. I like it even more when it works. So they had to rebook me on a later flight to San Francisco. Hope to get there soon.
Gaping assholeA lot of people on the Internet like to hotlink to pictures. Hotlinking: “It is possible to use a HTML tag in a webpage to embed material from another site in it. Thus when the webpage is sent to someone to view, the bandwidth for the embedded material is supplied by the owner of the second site.” [source] So basically they were stealing my bandwidth. My most famous popular pictures are a tinfoil hat and a red button. People would find them through Google Images. I was tired of bandwidth thieves, so I went ahead and overwrote those pictures with a picture of a (DON’T CLICK IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO BE DISGUSTED) horribly ugly gaping asshole. This means that now there are hundreds of pages out there (profiles, discussion forums, personal websites, etc, etc) that now show a gaping asshole instead of a cute tinfoil hat picture. A few people have noticed it and quickly removed the picture. But most people still see it. I love seeing some girl’s webpage with flowers and unicorns and a gaping asshole. We’re screwedParis Hilton has a song out. Yes, she is now a singer! Her debut song is titled “Screwed” and it goes something like this: It sounds like any other prepubescent teenage girl bubble gum pop. And not in a good way. That’s hot.
Fat ActressLast night I caught the first episode of Fat Actress, a new series on Showtime. It’s hilarious. It stars Kirstie Alley (of Cheers and Veronica’s Closet fame). As you know, she has put on quite a bit of weight in the last few years, so this show just makes fun of that and her struggles with Hollywood and her weight. On the first episode, she tries to get a TV show deal with NBC and also find a man. NBC is horrified at her weight, and her search for a man takes her to a “Soul Food” restaurant to find a black man, because, according to her assistant, black men love fatties. I think that the fact that she is making fun of herself is awesome and that’s part of the hook of the show. The show is 30 minutes and it is so weird and funny that it is a must see. It is rerun several times through the week so if you have Showtime, you should consider giving 30 minutes of your time to this show. And Kendra agrees. And two homos cannot be wrong.
Animal crueltyBefore Barkley came into my life, I never really gave animals a whole lot of thought. Sure, I liked animals and they were fun to interact with. But once I started sharing my living space with a pet, I realized how much more there is to animals. I’m not going to go into some rant, but if you have a pet, you probably know what I mean. So when I came across a link to this Nightmarish industrial chicken catcher, I was horrified. The video must be seen to be believed. Maybe chickens don’t really mind what is happening to them. Or maybe they forget what they just went through as soon as it’s over. Or maybe they don’t feel any pain when they are shot out of the back of the machine into the cage. But I doubt it. It’s almost enough to make me want to stop eating meat and eggs altogether. Not that I’ll ever do that (I like the taste and nutrition of meat and I dislike the taste of most vegetables). But seeing things like that makes me rethink how we treat animals in the large scale of things.
