  • Well, only one class today; I thankfully woke up on time for it. Did laundry, which I forgot to do yesterday.

    Have found some hilarious videos, as well. There's one as a preview for if the game Minesweeper was ever made a movie. Which of course made me want to play minesweeper again. I love having that on the calculator. Anyway, if you've ever played or been a fan of the game, you'll absolutely love it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LHY8NKj3RKs.

    Also on the note of parodies, I happened to find one to Miley Cyrus's I Can't Wait to See You Again. I don't know if any of you have heard that song; I hope not, because my respect for you would drop steadily and it would mean you waste what little free time you have surfing the internet. Oh, yeah, Generation Y (remember your audience, Jon, remember your audience...). In any case, in a video that borders on stalkerish and creepy, yet still sounds great musically, Dave Days parodies the song. It's pretty funny; most of his videos are, actually: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f6D4TQ3KQW0.

    On that note, to more fully numb (and deteriate) my mind, I watched the video for 7 Things, largely because Dave made a parody of that too and I got bored pretty quickly; I don't think I watched the full thing of that one. In any case, I watched the original, to which I laughed and reaffirmed the reason why I dispise pop music (I mean, other than the fact it's generally talentless garbage - honestly, it's not that hard to write your own lyrics).

    So, for those who are smart enough to avoid headaches from the current media of our day and age by living under a rock - the song basically is talking to a past boyfriend, listing the 7 things Miley dislikes about him.

    The song itself wasn't too bad, at first. Throughout the video, a whole slew of other girls either dance, hold past teddy bears or other objects that remind them of their significant asshole, or lip-sync Miley's words.

    Of course, the girls look like their about to cry throughout the whole thing (because that's what girls do during a fucked up relationship, right? For every single one. Just tons and tons of girls - they all have the same exact identical reactions to the same situation).

    But then the best part was after tearing our hearts out by their frustrsation over this deucebag and crying, then they decide to list the reasons why they like this guy. And of course during so, their eyes can't face the camera and gotta bite the lower lip. And then they note how their still in love with the guy; aw. Abusive relationship, much?

    And while the many (many) displayed girls are quite heterogeneous (one of them striking me as quite butch), I have to note that they're all average to skinny in stature and all fairly pretty. Of course. Overweight girls don't have unsatisfactory relationships? Haha, in the long run, actually, that's probably true.
