What is Wrong w/ Me?
Sometimes I wonder what the hell is wrong with me. The other day, I was walking along and heard that song by the Postal Service. You know which one I'm talking about. But when I heard the song I immediately wanted to punch someone in the face. And I mean hard. Fortunately no one was around and I kept walking. I think the tune must have emanated from a passing Volvo station wagon. But then that night I saw that effing UPS ad again. Yeah, the one w/ the guy. Yeah, THAT guy. I saw the ad and I wanted to punch HIM in the face. And I mean hard. But I didn't want to hurt my (non cable, non HD, rabbit eared) TV. But man, if I see that guy . . . That stupid ad brings up so much hatred in me that I think they should use it to build a pavlovian responding secret army. Right before battle, they show that ad (or play that song) and the soldiers would get so riled up they'd kill anything. I started to look up information about that ad- and aside from one interesting blog post about how using the song from The Postal Service for the Real USPS's competitor, I only saw like-minded hatred, so I know I'm not alone. And this awesome parody on youtube: But am I a secret psycho, or am I having a pavlovian reaction (Angie, don't answer this question). one more 14 Mar 16:54 | /rants_and_raves | 1 comment(s)
