It seems nearly impossible to escape. You either don't work very hard, don't make much money and are basically stuck at home all the time because everything costs money so you can't afford to do anything OR you work your ass off, spend most of your time thinking about work or working and when you do take that 2 weeks off per year to go to the bahamas or whatever, you're glued to your blackberry because you live in constant fear of losing it all.

Almost forgot! I'm not a big fan of popcorn that I don't pop myself.
My first job was working at a movie theater and the popcorn was popped upstairs daily and then brought down in big bags to fill the glass cases.
One of the guys who regularly had the task of popping popcorn was caught in the act while he was jacking off into the kernels before they were put in the popper.
He was arrested and when they asked if he had done it more than once he said he did it hundreds of times.
I don't eat popcorn that I don't pop myself. Can you blame me?Old SchoolComment

LOL can I please copy this and pretend I wrote it? Pretty much exactly my list.1. reality tv
2. the need to have as many friends as possible on social sites
3. online rpg addiction
Actually, when I break it down, I could lump all 3 of those together in a way. Which is probably why I don't get any of them.
And no, sending me friend requests on facebook or myspace will not automatically get you a +1 cause if you're not my friend, you're not added.
4. The need to go out and party all the time.
I agree with this one from the post above. I've had some great parties in my house or at friends houses. Good music, drinks... and we can actually hear each other! It's amazing.
5. Foreign films - It seems that if a film has some tears in it and some sub titles, the avant guard posh to do wannabe crowd jumps all over it as a real film and 100 times better than anything released in hollywood... ever. To me, subtitles, some tears and a lack of special effects does not an instant work of art make.
6. works of art - this brings me to many works of art. News stories of 6 year olds finger painting being mistaken by art critics as a priceless masterpiece always amuse the hell out of me because, although many pieces in a museum are masterpieces, a lot if it just a pile of paint thrown onto a canvas.
I'm sure there's more but there's also more work to do.Comment

I like 90% of the stuff you don't get so I will give it a shot. It is FUN! Star Wars, Hip Hop and sports are fun. I was just telling someone that if lots of people like something it is because it is fun. Starbucks, birthday cake and anal sex are a treat. Something you don't normally do so it is fun.Comment

Grown ass men that put money in the pockets of talentless hacks (rap 'artists') then when you call them on it, start hugging their nuts with comments like "Oh lil wayne makes x millions of dollars" as if they have some part in that achievement. Ironically, it's these same idiots that are funding them in the first place.Comment

Youtube. Or any low-res streaming video, really. Ugly, slow, blotchy, linear, boring.

fashion, all wearing clothes that aren't as comfortable as shorts and a t-shirt and don't make a tubby dude like myself look as good as I look in shorts and a t-shirt. Not to speak of the maintenance. Knit t-shirt fabric doesn't need ironing or special care. We've invented the perfect article of clothing, but you can't wear it in many office environments. Instead our society better respects people who are wearing jackets on days that are 90 degrees out. That one I don't get.Comment

Aha, fashion!! I went to a reasonably classy restaurant recently and the majority of the young females there were wearing (a) shoes with impossibly thick soles and/or high heels and (b) those stupid tops that bow out from the bottom of the boob line.
So we have nice looking chicks, shrouded in a tent and waddling when they walk...Comment

I was reading the thread, then bored with it so I was scanning down and a few words in your post caught my eye, and I have to disagree....
being number 1 I nearly skipped your post altogether. I totally f'in agree though, but to the point that this stuff is so banal anyone that watches it simply needs a brain transplant.
I was reading this, and thought that you hadn't simply watched enough foreign films, or maybe watched a really bad one once and that had forged you contre anything with subtitles, then I read... To me, subtitles, some tears and a lack of special effects does not an instant work of art make.5. Foreign films - It seems that if a film has some tears in it and some sub titles, the avant guard posh to do wannabe crowd jumps all over it as a real film and 100 times better than anything released in hollywood... ever. To me, subtitles, some tears and a lack of special effects does not an instant work of art make.
I think that lack of special effects things really STANDS OUT
So you class "Black On Canvas" with the same type of the fingers as Matisse's Self Portrait In A Striped T-Shirt?? Surely not....6. works of art - this brings me to many works of art. News stories of 6 year olds finger painting being mistaken by art critics as a priceless masterpiece always amuse the hell out of me because, although many pieces in a museum are masterpieces, a lot if it just a pile of paint thrown onto a canvas.
