No More Mr. Nice Guy! promises to help men break free of the “Nice Guy Syndrome.” Well, crap. THAT explains why there are no date-worthy men around, they’ve all been told to stop being nice guys! Know what I think? Nice guys ROCK. Nice people rock. Come on, let’s just love one another … [Via Blog Sisters]
Now that I’ve seen it on TV three times in one night, something has to be said about this new Coors commercial. The song in the background? “Who needs sleep? Well, you’re never gonna get it. Who needs sleep? Tell me what’s that for?” Meanwhile, people are dancing at a club. Then they show a clock – 12:31am, 1:23 am, 2:13am. “Are you up for it?” in large text across the screen, then the album that the DJ is spinning has a label that reads, “Who needs sleep?” More partying, more drinking, beer bottles everywhere – 3:01am. So, let’s see … drink beer all night long. You can dance. You can party. Look at what a great time you’ll have! Who needs sleep! … Did I get it right?
Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy a drink every once in awhile. But this commercial really bothers me. I think I first noticed it during TAR2 – what if my kid was watching with me? What does that commercial tell him? And even as adults, what is it telling us?
I think the Blogrolling Top 50 link list might be the only time that I will EVER be ranked higher then Jish or a lot of other cool people and sites. Wow.
Ever had the joys of having a help desk technician that is simply the worst of the worst? I have. Ticket responses rarely made sense, things took forever to get done. I was so thankful when I moved and started to experience the tech support I deserved again. Reading through The Chronicles of George reminded me of the bad times though. Scary, very scary. If you think your tech support is bad, just check these out! [via #!/usr/bin/girl]
So, what was your worst tech support or help desk experience?
Warning: Don’t click the link below if you are easily offended or if you are at work and will get in trouble … but, DAMN, this site is TOO funny! I can’t stop laughing! All dressed up & no place to go… a collection of penii pictures. I’ll stop there, I don’t want to spoil the fun! The third one is my personal favorite! [via BoingBoing.net]
