The Weekly Cheers And Jeers.....

So, I'm not too sure if I have found something to Cheer about yet or not. Most likely not. So let's get to it shall we?

First the Jeers.

Jeers to being in debt. Debt, I'm pretty sure, both sucks and blows. It seems that every month, I'm throwing my money away to the credit card companies who have taken advantage of the fact that I'm weak and like to shop. Those companies then, charge me HUGE amounts of interest thusly insuring that I will never emerge from what I like to call my "Debt Pit of Despair".

Also, Jeers to bad Customer Service. I really don't think its asking too much for someone to treat me the way they'd like to be treated if they went into a restaurant or store. It seems that the more jobs are out there, the worse my customer service gets. Maybe I'm just picky because I've worked in Customer Service for so damn long, but I really don't think its too much to ask, that the snot nosed teenage turd behind the counter at McDonalds or the local Cineplex pulls his or her head out of their ass and actually pays attention to the job they are being paid to do. When I start getting decent customer service at McDonalds, I'll quit asking the staff for my Free Smile.

Jeers to the INSANE gas prices. Gas in Alberta is now just over $1.14 per litre. Alberta is a mass producer/supplier of oil and such, and for some reason, those of us who live in this oil and gas rich province are still paying through the nose for fuel. Its a sad, sad day when it takes $30 to fill the tank of my Geo Metro. What's that Mr. Fuel Distributor? The long weekend is coming? Gas prices are going up? Bend over? Hmmm.....it all seems a little suspect to me. Maybe I could call Fox Mulder and he could investigate it. I bet the Cigarette Smoking Man is behind this conspiracy.

And finally, Jeers to Summertime TV. Could it suck any worse? I submit not. I long for the fall season. Summer TV is almost as bad as Daytime TV. Each night I come home and peruse the TV Guide hoping, dreaming for SOMETHING worth while to be on. But there never is. Sadly, I'm left to sift through shitty reality shows featuring has-been celebrities wrecking shit and talking shit, People conniving and backstabbing and all for $600 000 after taxes. The only good reality shows are on during the Fall Season. Please Jebus, bring back the O.C. and The Simpsons. Seriously. I can't take much more. Screw Flanders.

And my last bit of Jeers today goes to Justin Timberlake. Have you heard his new song? WTF is up with that? this boy can sing, and yet he chooses not to. The beat is awesome and if there were words that you could understand and not just distorted crap, this would get my vote as a decent song. He can sing just like Michael Jackson could sing while he was still black, and did just that on his last album. Yet, for some reason, Justin has decided to take on this new "edgy" persona/look for his new album. Only problem is that his "edgy" persona seems eerily similar to that of Michael Jackson....once he turned into a white woman and a germophobe. I was checking my Hotmail today and saw a banner add for Justin's new song and he's got a stupid bandana over his mouth, which made me think of Bad Surgery Face Michael. Justin, Justin, Justin, your young, UBER hot and you have more money than Jebus himself, why for the love of Jebus, would you think that was a good idea? really, if I wanted to listen to distorted vocals, I'd go out and pick up a Britney Spears album.

Now, The Cheers. First, Cheers to my employer! They put up with my lateness, and my potty mouth and to cap it all of they give me a free jacket! Yay for free jackets!

Cheers to T-Bone for helping to make the changes you now see on this fantastic looking blog! T-Bone rules and is now entitled to a movie of his choice at my expense. Cheers T-Bone! Cheers indeed.

Lastly, Cheers to Chimps! specifically Chimps that wear clothes. Nothing makes me more giddy than seeing a Chimp in a sweatshirt and hat....Except the sweatshirt wearing, gun-toting Chimp pictured at the top of my blog. Cheers to Chimps indeed.

That's all I can think of this week. Maybe next week will be a bit more scathing and not so lame. But probably not.

This is the pic of Justin....WTF?!
