Unhappy Hipsters
Here's a brilliant site to check out: Unhappy Hipsters. They take photos from Dwell Magazine and add funny captions.

And one day, a ladder appeared. Julien climbed with guarded optimism; could this be the way out for which he’d been searching all these weeks?
This post brought to you in the Arial font because it is more modern which is somehow better.

More Bourdain Beating...

Hmm... this Savage Chicken cartoon was released day after the No Reservations episode I blogged about earlier in the week aired. Coincidence? Probably, but it's a damn funny one. I know, I know, I need to let it go. Give me a few more days of stewing and I'll be over it, I promise... unless of course it happens again. Oh please no....

Part 3

Well, I finally got something to post showing those were my words. I feel a little better about that. Not better about the TV show, but a little better about the plagiarism. You can view the post in the forum HERE.
Sincerest Form of Flattery My Ass....

Well, well, well....
It seems last nights angry rant about Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations was good enough for someone to copy HERE. I sure do wish they had given me credit though. They used the name "scoopma" and I am a little annoyed with them.
I actually tried to post to the shows forum under the name reallystrangegirl but apparently I used too many "trigger words" and it wouldn't post. I edited out the naughty words and tried again - still wouldn't post. Some douchbag with slightly better editing skills managed to get it up there though and while I am glad my opinion is now known to The Travel Channel and Mr. Bourdain it is MY opinion and those are my words and I wish they had given credit where credit was due. Fuckers.
And while I am back on this subject, let's talk a little more about advertising.
I get it. In order to pay for cool things sometimes one must whore themselves out a little and do something distastful to make a living. A little part of me dies a little everytime I hear a favorite song rehashed by some rank amateur for a car commercial. But I understand the need to make a living and in the music industry it is extremely difficult. It's a sad truth in this day and age and I am not so naive as to fault musicians for not keeping their music "pure".
But last nights product placement was terrible. Not only was it poorly done, it made the whole show into a commercial! This is especially nauseating after in this very same episode Tony was ranking on the turkish dude who gave him a free drink. The guy turned the cup in Tony's hand towards the camera for a better view and smiled. Tony then said something snarky about it.
I understand the need for advertising, but please, save it for the commercial breaks. That's what they are for. Please don't ruin an otherwise terrific show by cramming an ad down my throat. You could have at least softened the blow with a snarky remark the way Mike Rowe does when hawking Ford Trucks on Dirty Jobs. That irritates me too but at least he knows he's a whore.
