1. The continued use of 2 sided dvd's. Such a pain!
2. How few people find it disturbing that people are now in love with their phones. The Siri feature: CREEEEEPY!!! perhaps its just the commericals that make it creepy, but the celebrities constantly talking to an operating system and asking their phone if it is raining, when they are looking out the window and SEEING rain is, oh, what's the word?...CREEPY!!
3. Speed Dating. As much as I love small talk and being herded around by the sound of a bell, and being judged by my comments to random questions by random strangers in the space of three minutes, I would much rather be doing, well, anything else. I think we're taking the wrong approach with locking up terrorists and waterboarding. 10 minutes of speed dating at an LDS singles ward will have those criminals whipped into perfect gentlemen, just so that they don't have to endure anymore of this real torture (come on ACLU, why aren't you fighting against this real torture. And yes, some people might argue that it was self-inflicted, but no, no it was not. REalizeing that NO ONE likes speed dating, and yet, not realizing for themselves how pointless and annoying this acitivty is, the powers that be on the activities committee cleverly disguised the event by a fun, unique label, thus successfully hiding the ugly, twisted nature of the real activity)
4. Why the welfare system is still around. Ok, I realize that some people need an extra hand up, and I am all for giving it to them, and only them until they are back on their feet. But I think its safe to say the the majority of the people on welfare should not be on it, but are too lazy and do not have a Jiminiy Cricket to tell them that their continued milking of the government is completely unethical and disgusting.
5. Insurance.... and Electoral Colleges. Believe it or not these two things are related: because they are both completely impossible to understand No matter how often they are explained to me, in many different ways, I will NEVER EVER EVER EVER comprehend either of these.
There's an episode of Big Bang Theory when Raj develops a crush on Siri because "she" is the only woman he can talk to without being drunk. What's really funny is at the end of the episode he has a dream that he meets the woman who is the voice of Siri and he can't talk to her.
ReplyDeleteI have to agree with you on 2 sided DVDs and Speed Dating.
