Random Thoughts Thread #3

you do realize that for every episode of these "bachelor" shows watched, you lose 8 IQ points.

 

i really hate tv commercials that make phone vibration sounds. i assume the theory is that it gets your attention, which it does, but it just makes me check my phone, not look at the tv.

on a similar subject, it should be illegal for radio commercials to have emergency sirens in them. that's relatively common too, and downright dangerous.

 

i had that same problem using a popular animals tune for my ringtone (dont let me be misunderstood) so i changed it to a kinks tune that is never played on the radio


edit...actually its the easybeats not the kinks

Am I the only female who is not a Disney fan?

 

Disney fan? No......but I don't hate Disney......I am not into how commercialized it has become though or all the little princesses and stuff.....but some good things have come from Disney, as well.

 

based on my observations, yes.

 

You should consider signing this

I don't have much faith in these petitions, but still

 

The #ShoutYourAbortion is one of the most retarded things I have seen in a while.

 

Worthy cause, doubtful if it will have a positive impact. Trying to obligate people to refrain from abortion by definition seems more retarded.

 

The petition or the twitter hashtag?

 

700 people have been killed in a stampede at the Hajj

 

Breaking through stigmatisation is a worthy cause. Though tooting their own horn on twitter about how great their decision was may be counterproductive, or simply not useful at all. I can see how it would mainly cause annoyance for everybody else, and would get positive comments only from people who already were strongly pro abortion (so pointless).

 

Oh right, Bajram today.

Bajram Şerif Mubarek Olsun!!!!

 

Right. But have you signed the petition?

 

I didn't.

 

Boooo

 

But I considered it :-D

 

Alrighty.

 

I am not a Disney fan.

 

Can you, in your own words, tell us what we would be signing?
