I just felt like posting about a bunch of stuff, and since this is going to be the last bit of sanity I have before my life gets turned upside-down by guide dog school and puppy’s arrival, not that I’m complaining, I figured I should take it! So it’s 3 days to go, can you …

Not Everything that Looks Stupid is Totally Stupid
A week or so ago, a friend of mine sent me these two complaint letters from a group of blind people who call themselves the Alliance for Equality of Blind Canadians. One was complaining about the commercials that the CNIB put out that say “not everyone who looks blind is totally blind. 90% of the …

Random Thoughts Ahoy!
I’ve been meaning to write this post for the last two days, and I haven’t done it. Don’t i suck? It has no real focus, just another random hodgepodge of things that have been passing through my head. I don’t know whether people are bored when I do those or not. Sometimes I wonder. Hope …
A Big Basket of Confusion
Lately I’ve been seeing this commercial on TV. It started appearing in December, and it persists now. It plays Jingle Bells and a British woman who is apparently plump tells you that you should discover the magic of a Chrisco Christmas hamper, and for as low as $3.75 a week, you can get a hamper …
Yeah, Uh-huh, Sure.
I saw a commercial that cracked me up today. It showed this girl getting a phone call. It was from a collection agency. He told her that he’d noticed some patterns in the way she’s been paying, or not paying, her debts. Then he told her that she should call this credit counselling firm and …
Order your Creepsake Today!
Eeewww! I don’t know what took me so long to talk about this, but better late than never I guess. I keep seeing this ad on TV. Thankfully, the sound quality is better on TV. But the concept is the same. Basically, these sick freaks have made a coin to commemorate the fifth anniversary of …
Badda, Ba, Ba, ba, I’m a Cheap Prick.
Oh boy. We now have the most corny and cheap gift possible. Mcdonalds gift cards! I saw an ad for them yesterday, and just about died. The chirpy chipper girl on the ad said, “Why not buy them something you know they already love?” Ok, I’m all about the gift cards. They make things easier …
Tis the Season to…huh?
Am I going deaf, or does anyone else, while not really paying attention to the TV hear, clear as a bell, “Tis the season to wallow?” Then you realise it’s “Tis the season to wow them,” because a commercial for Best Buy starts. But every single time I hear that commercial, I think it’s saying …
Whatever the hell comes Out.
I just felt like writing a random post. It sucks, because I can’t remember one of the things I was going to write about as I sit here. Hopefully it’ll come to me. So it’s less than two weeks until Christmas. So why in hell do I not feel in the Christmas spirit? The Christmas …
Say Hello to an Angry Customer!
God! Damn! It! Do they not think I know that fucking rogers fucking home fucking phone exists? Do they not plaster my TV with that spoiled little brat who has to talk to three people at once, that father who spoils that spoiled brat rotten, that grandma who sounds like a man, and whoever else …
