Things That Make Me Say "WTF?"

The title of this blog post is self-explanatory. Read on.

Toddlers and Tiaras- I leave TLC on for Molly when I go to work in the morning, because it's family friendly and I think she really likes the Duggars. Tonight, I got right down to business cleaning and cooking when I arrived home, and didn't even bother shutting off the TV, or changing the channel. As I was making my post-supper tea, Toddlers and Tiaras came on. This show is disgusting...and the fact that TLC has made it seem cool to parade your children around wearing fake hair, pounds of make up, and teaching them skanky dances is almost worse.

Spewing Your Life on Facebook- I am super guilty of posting my every move to Facebook. I don't know why I feel the need to tell all my FB friends every time I go pee, but I do, and I am aware of it. And yes, sometimes my posts are nagging or have to do with me complaining about something. But airing all your dirty laundry all the time just makes me scratch my head...and say "WTF?" Remember- the Internet never forgets.

...break! As I was typing this, a commercial came on for Cinnabon International Delight coffee flavouring. Oh my goodness, this excites me to NO END!

Mullets- always good for a laugh, but why are people still rockin' them? That hairstyle doesn't even make sense...the whole balance is off. And Kate Gosselin's tellum was also just as ridiculous. 

          
            Why??








Bad Customer Service- I don't just mean not getting your way as a customer. If Future Shop tells you that you can't return your iPod because you dropped it in your driveway and then you drove over it and now it doesn't work, that's not bad customer service...that's common sense. But when you're a customer, and the person working in the establishment you're at treats you like you're interfering with their day, that's just rude. I probably delivered that terrible customer service when I was a bowling alley attendant/taco making superstar, and for that, I feel shame. Now, it blows my mind when I get bad service. Blows. My. Mind.

Blu Ray- were DVDs not enough?

Not Using a Blinker- Do you want to get rear ended? Is that your goal? Do people think blinkers are there "just in case"? For those days when you just really want to use a blinker, they will be there. For all other days, just break and turn, and hope that nobody rams into you.

The Disney Vault- Why does Disney lock up their movies? They cannot be that desperate for money that they need to threaten people into buying their videos. I can't see why my kids will have to be deprived of watching Pinocchio because I didn't buy it before it went into the vault.

Dream crusher

Two and a Half Men- I thought Charlie Sheen was the reason why I didn't like this show. But, Ashton Kutcher has helped me realize that it wasn't Chuckie. It's just the show...why is it so popular? It's full of obvious humour. How is it still on the air, and yet Arrested Development is not? I truly don't get it. If you know the secret to finding this show funny, enlighten me, please.

Yogurt Tubes- Kids have an easier time with yogurt when it's in a cup, eating it with a spoon. Those tubes spew yogurt everywhere. Parents, think of your child's teachers when you pack these in their lunch. 

Sigh...I feel like I have vented, but I am not so much complaining about these things as I am expressing how baffled I am by them. Clearly, I don't have enough in my life to worry about that I actually think about these things, but that must be a good thing- right? I just want some answers!

PS- tomorrow is Friday...yay!
