What's Up My Little Muffins ?
So today I will talk about things I like, don't like, and things that straight up bug the hell out of me.
Fads/Trends/ Popular Products I am NOT into............
iPhone, or any smartphone for that matter --- I have a Motorola Crazr that came out around 2006/2007 and since it still works, I will continue to use it. If I get a smartphone, I will have to pay at least $30 a month more for internet. No spank you, and besides, those phones are getting too big. I like my phone because it is small, and can fit into just about any handbag, or even in my bra.
Twitter-- I will just stick to my blog, I already have followers here and here I can write as much as I want to. Twitter is lucky I am not up there. I would just tweet my bathroom escapades such as every dump I've taken.
Taking pictures of myself and posting them on facebook.-- If you want to show how hot you look, then at least get someone else to take the pic for you, or get the angling right so it looks like you tried not to make it look like a self portrait. Extra douchebag points if you pose with a kissy face. Tack on twattery points to that if you also pose with gang signs or sideways peace signs in addition to your kissy face.
Ipads-- No offense but Apple can suck it. I've never taken to their products. And they are way too expensive.
Fads I am into:
Facebook-- Part of why I don't post so much up here anymore, is I am always busy harassing my FB friends. Want me to harass you too ? Add me.
Reality TV Shows-- I watch most of them : The Real Housewives Series, Mob Wives, Jersey Shore..... You're Mom's a Whore...... Just kidding, there isn't a show like that, and I would never insult your mother. Was just seeing if you were paying attention.
Starbucks- Don't judge me. I am Starbucks loyal and can't stand Peet's. My friend gave me two gift cards for Starbucks, and it was the best gift EVER !
Expensive handbags-- True, I like namebrand handbags, but I will usually score my finds from Goodwill or friends.
--Expensive Foundation for my face. Estee Lauder rules !
--Department store perfume
Trends I am starting to Shy away from..............
- Expensive undergarments. I used to buy my bras only from Victoria's Secret because they used to be the only place that had nice bras with support without making me look like a fat cow with a dangling udder problem. Lately I've been finding nice bras in my size at Target or other discount stores. AND on clearance. So peace out VS Bitches !
-- Expensive shampoo. So I used to only buy top of the line shampoos, but I don't feel like it anymore.
Political Correctness/ Trends in Society , Past and Current that I've never taken a liking to.........
-- Carb diet. Two words: FUCK THAT !!!! I have family in Europe and have lived abroad. We love our carbs over there, and I have never given them up, nor will I do so here. I ate a healthy, well balanced diet in countries like France, Austria and Spain because I also mixed up a lot of veggies in my pasta, ate bread in moderation and did a lot of activities like walking everywhere, hiking or swimming.
-- The Going Green Fad. Don't even get me started. Before this became uber popular here in the US, people in Europe were already sorting their trash, recycling and only using resources such as electricity and water that they needed and it was no big deal. I was brought up to do the same. I am more than happy to sort my trash and turn off the lights after use LIKE I HAVE ALWAYS DONE.
I am just sick of all the babying and media hype to this and how bossy people can become all in the name of "going green". My building at work won't even let us use desk heaters that go under the desk anymore. How companies proudly display that they are recycling and it's supposed to win brownie points (when it should be a given), or how companies can charge more for their products and give you less product because they are "environmentally friendly". And I usually doubt their claims and wonder how "environmentally friendly" they really are. How compostable their materials really are.
--Organic produce. Whatever. To me, fruit is fruit and same with veggies, and if I am really hard up for organic products, I will just grow them myself. But since I am lazy and don't care either way, I am happy to buy produce at the grocery store. I don't believe those bs claims that organic produce is healthier, and I really doubt that produce that is sold in mass quantities is truly "organic". To me, anything grown in the ground and picked is organic, because it comes from the earth.
--People that eat fish or chicken yet still call themselves a vegetarian. No you're not, Stop........
-- Bullying and how the media throws around the term. I am totally against bullying. It breaks my heart when I read in the paper how a child got bullied in school. I was bullied in school. It sucks. I think more should be done to combat that.
What I don't agree with is when adults loosely throw around the term, claiming they were "bullied' just because they got into an argument with another adult or were verbally confronted by a group of other people. If you watch reality TV (such as the Real Housewives) those women are notorious for abusing the term. That is lame.
Charities.... Now please hear me out, I am all for donating. I have volunteered a lot of my time, and I respect people that give. My family is full of people that have donated their time and a lot of money. That's not the problem. The problem I have with it is when people feel entitled to harass you for your money just because "it's going to a good cause."
It always annoys me when I see people on reality TV shows throwing charity parties, and trying to convince everyone they are fabulous because they are donating money, yet there is always petty drama at these "parties". It kind of takes away from the spirit of giving.
It also gets on my nerves when I see "corporate panhandling", like Safeway for example. They raise money for various causes, which tend to change sometimes and sometimes have people posted throughout the store to ask for donations, or post up the names of clerks and how much money they have raised and treat it like a competition. I remember one day they were raising money for people with special needs, and had their employees with special needs posted on each corner of the store to do the asking.
I remember shopping at Ross, and each clerk asked you to donate. And if you donated, they announced your name and said you donated to the rest of the store. How tacky is that ? What about the people that couldn't ? They knew who you were.
I don't believe that all of the money raised would be for charity anyway. Not only are there tax exemptions, but I am sure someone is getting paid a nice, hefty salary for fundraising at a corporation. How much of that money is going to the true cause ? Until I can know that percentage, no way am I parting with my money.
-- Fancy names for low paying jobs. Do you make sandwiches at Subway ? Then you are a "sandwhich artist".
Are you a receptionist ? Then you are a "lobby embassador".
I do security part time, and if you ever call me a security guard, I would have to correct you and say that I am an "officer" or a "Security Specialist". (no I wouldn't)
When I lived in the dorms in college, the janitor introduced himself as the "sanitation engineer."
I guess that due to the bad economy, the high turnover rates in these positions, and the piss poor benefits that these jobs have, the only thing that can be done for these people is to give them flashy job titles.
BONUS*** Things that annoy me about dating............
-- When men take self portraits of themselves in the mirror. Bonus douchebag points if he takes the picture in the bathroom with his shirt off.
--When men write their profiles in all caps or with such poor spelling and grammar.
--When men don't treat me like a lady and pay for my meal and claim it's because the "feminists" screwed it up for the rest of us and that us women cry that we want to be equal.
-- When men tell me about their jobs and nice material possessions, and then label me a gold-digger for asking questions after they were the ones to start the conversation. (Otherwise I don't discuss those things.)
--When men write in their profiles that they enjoy "intelligent conversation". As opposed to what ? Dumbass douchebag babble ?
If you are a man and feel like I am manhating, I am not, and since I am not dating women, I can't really write the annoying shit that women do when dating. But....... I can write annoying shit that women do in general......
Here goes..........
-Women that go to the bathroom in groups. It annoys me when I have to listen to other chicks babble in the bathroom when I am trying to piss or dump in peace.
- Women that walk right behind me (when there is other space) and wear heels that click real loud.
- The women that straighten their hair in the bathroom at work, and it really bothers me when it smells like burning hair.
Okay, that is all for now. Time for me to step off my soapbox and call it a night.
So today I will talk about things I like, don't like, and things that straight up bug the hell out of me.

hey you...Guess where I am?!?!?
New Orleans!!! And my daughter's computer SUX!!!!!! She crashed the desk top I bought her a few years ago... she got a laptop... and it sucks...
I feel like I am learning to type again...
I have a Black Berry, but just because I get a better cell package (not THAT kind of package!!)with it than with any other phone my carrier provided...
The email on my version of the BB leaves a great deal to be desired...
I hope all is well in your neck of the woods!!!
~shoesies~
This is fantastic! :)
Would write more but vision is blurry...loves! (kissy face JK!)
I must use the phrase, "no, spank you," in the near future! I am a vegetarian and I always laugh when people ask, "But do you eat fish?" I tell them, "Nothing that used to have a face."
Right on, I agree with everything you say. The environmental stuff has become a religion, and like all religion follow the money.
Twitter is stupid, I really don't care that you just brushed you teeth, found a sale on candles, just gave a fantastic blow job.... oh wait, yes I care about that last one.
Starbucks, love it.
Self portait photos, does taken picture of your junk and posting on your blog count as tacky (blush*Guilty*smirk)
I'm with ya everywhere but the coffee. I. Hate. Coffee !
I'll have a tea, thanks :-)
Weas ll, and the phone bit. I got a Blackberry Torch last October. It is one bad mofo! It messages like nobody's business, can browse the web as fast as most computers, and is just all around awesome.
No iPhone for me, it's a toy :-P
Going green irks me to no end. Wha...? And are the US fatnics and obese-a-holics the ones who will save our planet? Don't think so. Well, not before dinner, anyway.
We call your favorite coffee, "Charbucks." I don't care for it. Just about everything else is good for me.
It really pisses me off to hear people saying the fad word, "seriously?" or "really?" oh and women that wear toe rings or ankle braclets, someone please tell them that that went out in like 93 or 94.
Awww, Travis, you've broken my heart. Now we have to get a bloggy divorce because I do everything that annoys you :(
::sniffles::
Haha, Well, I haven't seen your feet now have I??? ;)
i'm with you on the twitter thing, no sooner had i tried it than i was infecting all of my followers with a deadly virus, completely unbeknownst to me. i was known in circles as the Cyber Madam, though i'm a guy...
I love Starbucks and used to feel guilty about it but when I try other coffees, they suck.
Totally with you on Twitter. Well no I'm not on Twitter but you get what I mean?
I have taken photos of myself but not to put on Facebook. I don't have Facebook. I haven't done a kissy face though. Is that ok?
I love my mac though, and hate pc's!
Reality TV?? Augh! I can't take any more of that stuff. I can barely tolerate most of the series on TV as it is, and then only the comedies, but reality TV is just too much for me to take anymore. Bleargh!
