Razzies

Though it may be the night of the Oscars, I suppose I could throw my own two cents in, but I don't think it would make any difference or matter; plus that's beyond the point, so yeah. Anyways, during the evening of the Oscars, so the day before, the nominations for Razzies were announced. Or the Golden Raspberry Award, that's if one's trying to keep it professional. The actual award show won't be until the first of April. Now, satires are usually good, a satirical award should be just as good if not better.

Being a satirical award, this goes to the films which are deemed to be bad. Though not as the same prestige as Troll 2 or anything directed, written, and produced by the Ed Wood. Those being so bad that they’re a good type of films, and I do think in order for that to actually happen is that the creator or creators of those films actually believe in what they are making, even though it's crap. However, these Razzies nominations aren't the case. They are just bad because they are simply bad. And yet I don't believe “bad” would be the word to describe them.

It looks like funny-man, if even that, Adam Sandler, has been nominated for 11 Razzies for all of his hard work (or lack thereof). That is something to be proud of, due to the fact that's the most one has been nominated for in one year. Let's not just let Sandler have all the fun, and turn it over to that knee slapping comedy, Jack and Jill (or shit stain, I honesty couldn't tell the different), which leads with a total of 12 nomination. I don't believe they had plot in mind when they made that one. Others are Transformers: Dark of the Moon, with nine, and The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, Part 1, with eight. On a positive note, I happened to learn something, which was that I didn't know that a documentary could be nominated or have a “lead actress.” This would be referring to Sarah Palin's nomination for worst actress in Sarah Palin: The Undefeated. I don't really have an opinion on that, nor did I even know she starred in a documentary; well I guess I know now. For a complete list, or something like that.

Dishes

Believe it or not, but I do, I do the dishes (like a boss. Yeah, I know you probably saw that coming from a mile away). So, one should know that this was inspired by true events or something. Another thing would be that we do own a dishwasher, so you all can stop worrying and such. And it isn't going to be along the lines of: “oh, we've got a dishwasher, but it’s called... ________ (insert someone’s first name there).” I will have none of that. It's actually a dishwasher (hold up, where am I going with this? Oh that's right some form of an allegory).

Boy, I suppose I'll start this off as such, with the knife being quite a third derivative, and not only that but it jabbed me, and it was completely unapologetic. I know, right? I can see where it's coming from; it is pretty narcissistic on such topics as cutting or spreading. Spoons were pretty much the pushovers. Bowls were probably the most overbearing of the items. A measuring cup is probably the closest thing to an intellectual, or at least I try to pass it off as one. I mean, there is only so much it knows, and then there's the lack of the whole Metric System. This country…

I'm pretty convinced that if the items in the kitchen had any form of a hierarchy or a social class of any sort that Tupperware would be the peons. They're the lowest of the low. I don't see any other item that would actually want to be associated with Tupperware because of the simple fact that they're nothing more than a nuisance. I will put it like this: it's that type of person who just tags along to a party, and later gushes from their orifice, or who waltzes in the room like they own the place. Yeah, that type of nuisance. Of course, one could still make the argument that the sexiest word in the English language is “Tupperware,” although I find that to be a stretch, just sayin'.

Moving right along, plates probably have more of a commitment than one's standard run-of-the-mill paper plates, who, I like to clarify, fears commitment due to the fact that it's not sure if it wants to hold onto food or to let it drop. Yeah, that's about the sad truth. Another sad truth was that not one of the kitchen items displayed any sense of wittiness or humor. Most, if not all, had this feeling of being up tight.

And that's whatever the hell this was...

Now on a completely separate note: I learned Jared really knows quite a bit about cars.

Not Sold on the Tumblr

During this past week I had grown curious over the idea of Tumblr. Though I didn't have one, from what I did know, one has the ability to ask questions and hopefully get them answered. Well that’s all fine and dandy, except trying to get one. I wasn't getting a Tumblr for the sake of getting a Tumblr, I was curious about how it works, just sayin'. It isn't as easy as one would expect; not the simple email, password, and click. Well okay, that was the simple part. Actually figuring how it works is completely another thing. Come to think about it, one would think that someone in my generation would at least understand the concept of a Tumblr. Would my generation understand?

I’m not entirely sure to what Generation I would belong to, though I suppose it would come down to either Generation Y or Z. So I’m a part of Generation Y or Z, though I'm still really too sure which (perhaps more so Y than Z, but who's to say?). I assume this just because one had given up or simply lost count some time ago. This should tie in with this past week; someone had made the commentary that there isn't anything private anymore for this generation. This is probably quite true, and I would have to agree. And yet I still could make a counter-argument that it's nothing more than a unique obsession with documenting “just about anything.”

The argument for both can be linked to the concept of the social media. Anyways, it's not too hard to come across social media. Social media would include Skype, Youtube, Spotify, Digg, StumbleUpon, Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, and the ghost town known as Google+. If you look, it’s just about everywhere (on the internet). Of course there are probably more than I had previously listed. As for me, I prefer the Twitter over most or all them, but that's just me.

Getting back to point, the Tumblr was pretty confusing, not going to lie. My curiosity with the Tumblr was soon extinguished as I witnessed the dashboard. I wasn't all too disappointed, I mean have better things to do. Congratulations to those of you who actually got it to work. Of course, it is always possible that I just so happened to overthink it.
