Deliciously priced

I don’t understand fancy restaurants. Are rich people skinny because you pay $40 for an entree and they bring you so little food that they have to use garnish and “raspberry drizzle” so you don’t realize that most of your plate is white and empty? I thought the wealthy got there by making smart decisions with their money, not by paying four times the price for a third the food.

One-upmanship

Have you ever tried seperating the cookie from the cream in those off brand oreos? You end up with half a cookie. And the other half is sitting there, impossible to peel off. So I guess the lesson today is, if you’re going to deconstruct oreos, go name brand. That is all. Happy Friday!
Clinically insane

That’s what I’ve been doing wrong… Seriously though, for the life of me I can’t understand the opposite sex. The cartoon above is indeed a silly play on words/psychiatric aides, but it’s truth as well. Truth here lies in the fact that women are crazy. Not crazy bad, like Paula Abdul, just crazy. I don’t dare classify Ms. Abdul with the general female population, as the backlash from such categorization could indeed snap my neck in half.
I’m not going to continue this rant, however, because I don’t know what I’m talking about. The mysteries, complexities and inherent antithetical being that makes up the better half of man will have to remain just that.
So girls, go enjoy your Twilight, your emasculated folkloric beings, and Jude Law. I’ll continue to insist that a vegetarian vampire makes as much sense as two rabbis in a joke.
The power of ‘O’

Typos are prevalent today. Only because everything now is so blazingly fast and instant, spell check doesn’t really come in first place. I would hate to be an editor for some of these news outlets. Mainly because instead of meeting a 9 P.M. press deadline, you have to meet 100 different deadlines in an hours time. Will we see newspapers die? No. Just like we won’t see magazines die. Sure, there are much faster and less austere ways to obtain information, but I think there is still something to be said of quality. Not that you can’t have quality in a blog post (specifically one’s dealing with this issue) but the editorial process just makes things better.
Ha ha. He said curt…
Excuses.

So very often in life we make up excuses why we cannot do something. Here it is the creepy bald man who talks to a teddy bear with nipples who comes up with excuses aplenty. Every day I come up with quite a few of my own.
Time is a precious thing, and probably shouldn’t be wasted by reading webcomics for hours. Start small and just do those little things that need to get done. When they become routine you can work on the bigger ones. Keep in mind the big picture, but realize that the big picture is just the end result of many small steps. Find those steps. Chop your tasks up into little bite size portions that you can take on day by day. You’ll achieve your goals in time.
