Previews: WTWTA

There aren't many books I remember from my childhood. Some that I do remember include:

- The Little Engine that Could

- Curious George

- Dr. Seuss

- The Giving Tree

- Goodnight Moon

And... the one in the trailer below!! I'm not a fanboy of "Where The Wild Things Are" but this looks really amazing. In fact I'll say that it really does not gmg :-)

(btw does anyone know how to change the width of this blog? the video is truncated on the right side... and that really gmg!)

gmg: skinny jeans

Jeans... they're versatile, durable, and comfortable. So why am I posting? Because ever since my high school days "comfortable" morphed into "tight" and now jeans not only gmg, they gmb*!!  *ballz

I miss the baggy Oprah jeans. They fit like sweat pants and didn't cause boxers to ride up. Now boxer briefs are the norm unless you roll commando style and risk "pulling" a something-about-mary. Whether you wear Diesels, True Religion, or Rock & Republic *ahem jonathan* one thing is for sure: prepare for pain!

To summarize, skinny jeans should only belong on hot girls. Agree?? Ok... so now instead of my original pic of Megan Fox wearing jeans, here's a cool video.

Please contribute to the Dyson fund!

You know what really grinds my gears? Vacuum cleaners! After consulting with my local vacuum expert *ahem James*, I determined the following types:

1. handheld ones that barely suck that's what she said

2. regular bag ones that weigh more than Oprah

3. bagless ones that lose suction after 6.37 seconds

4. robotic ones that get full before they start

5. "dual-cyclone-centrifugal-particle-separation" ones (aka Dyson) which cost more than Flora's shoes

To illustrate my grief here's an actual pic of the bathroom floor: *warning NSFW*

Yup, that's a lot of black hair. So as of today, I am establishing the Dyson fund. For every dollar a kitteh is saved!

what really gmgs my coworker

Computer freezes. They're probably at the top of everybody's gmg lists but some instances are more inopportune than others. Like say when you're in the middle of a very important powerpoint presentation. Or when you're about to totally pwn someone in WoW.

They can also happen when you're surfing NSFW websites at work:

"sup jhobbs. how's your---woah what are you looking at?"

jhobbs said that if i posted this it would really grind his gears. In fact, he said it would really g-m-g.

gmg...it's spreading like wildfire.

GMG reviews: Heroes

I'm conflicted. I've been watching this little show called "Heroes" and it's alright. Yep, it's okay. But as with most decent shows (i.e. not "the hills"), once I found episodes online suddenly Arthur Petrelli not only absorbed powers, he absorbed my time!!

In a week Flora & I watched an entire volume in crappy youtube quality. Technically, she fell asleep before the finale (it was past her 8pm bedtime) but nothing... not even 72-minute-quota-interruptions... could stop me! It was 1am when Sylar *spoiler warning* killed Arthur and I was like "OMGWTFBBQ I must continue" and now I am falling asleep at work.

Addictive TV shows really grind my gears. They think they're so clever with their engrossing plots and dramatic cliffhangers! Maybe I need Hiro Nakamura's power so I could redo the weekend...

or maybe I need the power to resist Heroes!!

KROQ

So last night Flora asked if I heard the new Killers single and I said "I don't think it's on KROQ" (the biggest alt-rock station in LA.) But the truth is... I just don't listen to that station anymore! Why? Because they've slowly morphed into the Krappy Redhotchilipeppers Obsessed statiQn (sorry about the poor acronym.)

Seriously though, I know mr. Kiedis loves CA but hearing "caaalifoornia shoooow your teeeeth" or "dream of caaalifooornicaaation" overplayed not only grinds my gears... it grinds my ears!! It's sad to see other alt-rock stations (103.1 and anyone remember Y107?) leave the air, but judging from yelp reviews of KROQ we sorely need an alternative alt-rock station!

(btw, robert downey jr. should be added to the post below.)

gmg: javier bardem vs jeffrey dean morgan

The other night i had a rather heated dinner conversation discussing who was in vicky cristina barcelona...javier bardem or jeffrey dean morgan & wait, who was that guy in gray's anatomy? or iron man for that matter? j-k i know who robert downey jr is.

well after some research here it is....indisputable google image proof that they are either twins / clones / the same person:

can you tell them apart? i didn't think so.

& the gmg part is when i'm like "jeffrey dean morgan is so awesome in vicky cristina barcelona"....only to be corrected by some know-it-all-twin-id-master...uh that's actually javier bardem, didn't you know.

well no i don't know. & that really gmgs.
