Things I am sick and goddamn tired of
- Those Jessica Simpson DirecTV commercials. Her fake southern accent is abominable.
- The MasterCard “priceless” commercials. God, I was sick of them 5 years ago. And to think that they protect them like the secret ingredient of Coke. Ugh!
- The word “K-Fed.” Let. It. Die.
- Blog authors who do not allow comments and have no contact information. Look, that’s not a blog. A blog has to be at least minimally interactive. I wanted to tell this guy that he’s all wrong about this, but how the hell am I supposed to do that? I even whois‘d him to no avail. The only way he’ll get the memo is through referer logs.
- And a lot of other things I can’t think of at the moment.

“K-Fed”. Enough said.
I’m also already sick of “Tomkat”.

I didn’t even know what K-Fed was until last week, and I still had to look the name up to figure it out.

As an 18-month anti-TVist (hooray for new words tonight!), I support my suggestions more. I also do not have TiVo, but then I’d be TiVoing through everything that was recorded.
As for mainstream music, this is true, but in recent days I’ve only heard it in my friend’s car and at work. Otherwise I only hear at home the multi-ethnic melodies and instruments that grace my hard drive. And in movies, but that’s it.
