Saturday Annoyances
What kind of clumsy attempt at humor is this strip by Johnny Hart that was in this morning's newspaper?
"Penultimate" means "next-to-the-last." So, a firing squad is the next-to-the-last implementation of downsizing. I don't get it. Would someone explain it to me?
Or does Mr. Hart mean that it is the ultimate implementation of downsizing, meaning the best or the end of it? If so, and I think he is, he's using the wrong fucking word.
And what the fuck is it with the Citibank commercial with the guy with the foreign accent who kind of looks like that Rumanian gymnastics coach? Is that supposed to be cute or funny or something? It's fucking annoying. I changed the channel every time it was on. Fuck 'em.
The Fabulous Food Show is in Cleveland, which is a good thing; but I am not paying a $25 admission fee, which translates to $50 for two people, for the opportunity to spend more money on cooking stuff.
Maybe I'm just in one of those foul moods today.

Totally with you on the commercial. Dasvedanya, citibank.
You should check out the film Borat.... ;)
