I have nothing to talk about so I’m just going to talk about stupid shit

January 17th, 2008 | by Brook Durant |

That’s right I have absolutely nothing to say so I’m just going to write about whatever comes to mind. Check that, if I wrote whatever came to mind I’d be locked up. But I’ll write almost whatever comes to mind and you’ll never be the wiser. Alright then, shall we get started with nothing?

Craig’s List
I looooooooooooooooooove Craig’s List! Seriously where else in the world can you get gouged on a new (slightly used) pet, catch a wicked case of gonorrhea, a large dose of comedy, and meet the woman (or man) of your dreams in less than 10 minutes? Ok maybe that’s a bit unfair. It might take closer to 30 minutes to get that gonorrhea, but nevertheless there it is! Can anyone tell me a website that is better than Craig’s List?

Food picture
As I so proudly pointed out in my last post I got a new digital camera. Like so many others I’ve discovered the joy of photographing my food. And just like so many others who endure pictures of other peoples food I sit there wondering “why the hell?” am I looking at pictures of food. But then I decided “Who gives a crap? It’s my blog!” Without further ado I present pictures of food! Snake food.

Damascus eating

Can you say “YUM!”? I kinda thought you could. Don’t worry a bit no animals were harmed in the making of this picture. The mouse was already dead prior to feeding as I generally only feed Frozen/Thawed instead of live rodents because it is usually much safer, less messy, and less of a hassle if the snake doesn’t eat.

Politics
How about them candidates?! What a great field of professional politicans we have running to be the next President of the US! I have such a hard time deciding who I’ll vote for. Because they’re all so well qualified? Because they all have such tremendous insight? Because they all suck? Ding, ding, ding, ding!!! We have a winner!!!! Now I suppose my only job at this point is to figure out who sucks the least. Maybe one of you has a dog or something I could vote for. I’m confident it would make a better leader than the current pack of turds who are running.

Randy Moss
In sporting news it looks like our old pal Randy Moss is at it again. Controversy is nothing new to the Patriots star Wide Receiever, but this is beyond the pale! Hitting a poor defenseless woman! Yeah, no I don’t buy it for a second. Amazing that this kind of crap comes out now and not in the middle of the season. Time will tell but I’m willing to bet this woman is lying her ass off. My guess is that someone paid her off to stir up trouble ahead of the AFC game this weekend. And even if they didn’t the woman is clearly attempting to exthort Mr. Moss. You might think that being from New England I am somehow predisposed to believing Moss. Not at all my friend, not at all! I believe him over her because the whole thing stinks. Anyone with common sense will say it stinks. The timing is… extraordinary. And that’s all I’ll say.

Cop Killer
Is it just me or does there seem to be an increase in the number of cops being killed lately? The latest (to make the headlines) were two office from DeKalb County Georgia who were shot and killed around 1am on January 16, 2008. Officers Ricky Bryant Jr., 26, and Eric Barker, 33, both leave behind wives and four children each.

It just seems like there have been a lot of cops targeted lately. Maybe it’s just my imagination? Anyhow remember cops are the good guys. Even if they do things we don’t like such as pulling us over for speeding, stopping us from partying, and the like they are just doing their jobs. In other words don’t go around killing cops, because God forbid the day there are none. I know it sounds like such a great idea, no cops… paaaaaaaarrrrrrtaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy! Right? Wrong! No cops would be anarchy which is something you do not want to see.

That wasn’t so bad was it? Anyone have any thoughts on any of the subjects briefly brought up?

    Hrmmm…. Craig’s List has become a huge debate among whether or not it’s a good idea to go through them or not. There have been a number of murders that happened - one person went to pick up a car - and got shot when he arrived. Another person got kidnapped and killed while picking up their merchandise and others just didn’t get what they paid for. You really have to be careful when shopping around on there.

    As far as the cop shootings, more cops became the “bad guys” when there was an increased number of “bad eggs” out on the street. It’s a shame, isn’t it?

    They don’t even get free coffee at Duncan Donuts anymore. ;)

    Deb - Yeah I was trying to be sarcastic when talking about Craig’s List. I guess I missed the mark? But in reality I’ve seen both good and bad from CL. It’s a reflection of society I suppose.

    Not sure what you’re talking about bad eggs and cops? I’m certain that whatever it is that you mean it doesn’t every justify murdering anyone.

    I love the random discussions that don’t really have a master topic. As for CL, I’ve never used it personally and I find myself not believing in it. I just see so many scams and such that I’ve lost my faith in CL.

    I left you a blog review from blogcatalog on my website under round 1 entry.

    Marlow - I use CL all the time. I’m just careful and don’t ever buy anything big ticket from it.

    Thanks for the review!
