You know how somebody will be straightening a shelf or something and say that they are "really OCD" about such things? Well, no. Firstly, OCD is not an adjective, it is a verb. Secondly, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder is an actual mental disease, and I'm sure it must be really insulting to those who actually suffer from it when people whimsically use it to explain away their analness. Let's not exaggerate things, people.
When somebody says they "like the feng shui" of a room, referring to the arrangement of the furniture. No! Fucking, no!! They clearly do not understand the concept of Feng Shui. I don't either, of course, but I know that the actual practice of Feng Shui has to do with extremely specific placements of furniture to allow for the proper flow of some sort of ethereal energy. Just because the arrangement of the furniture looks nice doesn't mean it has nice "feng shui." Just like OCD, not an adjective. A room can be arranged nicely, but, according to the guidelines of Feng Shui, be a complete disaster. Say you like how the furniture is arranged, and do some homework about your weird Chinese metaphysics.
The phrase, "I'm not gonna lie." Why preface anything with that? Am I supposed to believe that you are a compulsive liar, and thus I shouldn't really trust anything you say unless you assure me that you are telling the truth? It's really annoying. I've taken to informing people that I'm about to lie. For example: "I'm going to lie: I really hate the works of Kurt Vonnegut." It's pretty much the same as saying, "I'm not gonna lie, I love the works of Kurt Vonnegut." Except, with mine they have to think for a second. So maybe mine is better, because it exercises the brain.
Also, there seems to be an excessive amount of pop songs out about how you're gonna get your guys/ladies together and go to the club and it's gon' be jus' EPIC. Yeah, it's getting old. Sing about something else. I've been to "the club," it's really fucking pathetic, usually. Everybody gets drunk and dances poorly to crappy music (usually about going to the club and dominating) and the guys try to grope the girls and the girls get pissed about it, which is weird, because, what do they expect? If they've been to the club before, they know that's why the guys go there, so if anything, the girls are at fault, not the guys. Although, really, everybody is at fault for continuing this awful trend.
CHARLIE SHEEN. Maybe if we stop paying attention, he will go away. STOP DOING FUCKING 30 MINUTE NEWS SPECIALS ABOUT HIS LATEST BRAND OF KRAZY. Jesus, people. You, rightfully, condemn him for being insane, but then justify and encourage it by clinging to it. You deserve what you get. And this goes for any such celebrity bullshit.
Ah, this post was good.
Goodnight, all.
