D.O.?

Posted in Culture, Music, Random by

I was listening to Jay-Z’s song, DOA and I began to think about things I wished would die. The following are just a few:

  • Shower flipflops being worn in the street (the shower part isn’t a misnomer, it’s a hint)
  • Chinese slippers being worn in the street (a $5 slipper is not a shoe)
  • Club clothes and colored eyeshadow in the day time (it’s called EVENING wear)
  • Stores that have minimum purchase requirements for credit/debit cards but take EBT no matter what (way to reward for NOT being on public assistance)
  • Men’s sandals (never acceptable if there is no body of water near by and I don’t mean a puddle)
  • Faux-Fur (faux means fake)

Jay-Z killed Autotune, if you could, what would you kill?

Humorless Tees

Posted in Culture, Random by

I like humor/message tees just as much as anyone else but things are getting a bit out of control. I propose a New Rule: If you have a shirt with a line from a popular song, when the song is no longer popular, you have to stop wearing that shirt. For example, no one, NO ONE, should still be wearing those “Hi Hater” shirts; not that I’m suggesting they were ever okay. Haters are the last thing anyone who wore those shirts had.

I saw a t-shirt the other day that said “Color Me Gangsta.” I thought to myself, “wearing that shirt, you’ve colored yourself into a loser.” Also, I would love it if someone could enlighten me about why shirts with skanky sayings are being worn. I’ve never understood those “my boyfriend is out of town,” “50% single” or “ask your boyfriend about me” shirts. What’s next? Are people going to start wearing shirts that say “Homewrecker” or “I’ll smash your wife?”
