I Hate 8/27 : Bluetooth Headset Douchebags

Today's entry is devoted to something I hate immensely: Bluetooth Headset Douchebags or BHDs






Description:
Those guys (and ladies) who love talking on their bluetooth headsets in public for all to hear. They love their futuristic technology and wear it with pride. If possible, I am sure they would have the thing surgically attached to their head. Not all of them would, however, because if it were attached to their head, then they wouldn't look so totally awesome putting it in.





Why I hate them:

Everyone knows who I am talking about. Many are ashamed to have relatives in this universally hated demographic, and some may even be BHDs themselves. They talk way louder than they have to simply to make you aware of how cool they are for talking on a cell phone without using their hands. I feel so stupid everytime when I think they are talking to me but they are really on the phone with a client or their grandma. They just look at you like you are are some sort of idiot who was evesdropping on their conversation. Well, I am sorry that I think that you are talking to me when you scream: "how are ya?" 2 inches behind my head. I know you look at me in disgust for turning around, but you my friend, are the one that everyone makes fun of.


How to stop Them:

I think our best bet is to start some sort of scare story about how they will get brain cancer if they continue to be BHDs and use bluetooth headsets. If it turns out to be true then we win either way. If they stop using them then they will go away and if they all die from using them then they go extinct. Wow, that is such a sweet idea... I am gonna get Al Gore to help me start this huge lie and have people believing it is science!

Recently Played 8/24

Here are some songs that tickled my ear drums today.

Bloc Party - Better Than Heaven

This is a great song from the new Bloc Party album titled "Intimacy". Check out the album and you will not be disappointed.




Flobots - Handlebars

Yes, I know this one is making its way through the mainstream radio waves, but I can't help but like the catchy melody and simple lyrics. The video is pretty cool as well. Check out their Album titled "Fight with tools".




Alex Gopher - Brain Leech (Bugged Mind Remix)

A great remix of a great song. I am a fan of most of Alex Gopher's music



ENJOY!

New iPods out soon...


The picture above is of the supposed structure of the new ipod nano out soon. Some are saying as soon as a few weeks. Here are the latest rumors circulating about the upcoming change:



- Revamp of entire iPod line.
- Small cosmetic changes to Touch, Nano to see significant redesign (see pic above).
- iPods to see fairly large price drops to distance itself from the $199 iPhone.
- iPod touch 2.1 software, iPhone to get update very soon after.
- iTunes 8.0 ("it's a big update w/new features").
- All of this coming in the next 2-3 weeks.

A price drop? Sweet! I remember paying 400 bucks for a 60 gig iPod photo. The iPods now have way more features for about half the price. Man, they saw me coming for sure.

Ninjas. Need I say more?


Being a ninja, cloaked in darkness, fighting evil with lethal fists, may not be all it is cracked up to be anymore. Apparently some kids in New Jersey dressed up like ninjas and decided to take out some drug dealers. The boys are now in some heat with the cops who see this as a bad thing. I don't know about you, but to me, being a ninja is super rad and so is taking out drug dealers. I fail to see the downside. But then again, I saw the ninjas in Batman Begins and there is no way I would speak ill of them.

Looking Ridiculous Is Now An Olympic Sport

If you haven't seen yet, there is an exciting sport taking the Beijing Olympics by storm. That sport, of course, is walking. Yes, walking. That thing you do everyday on your way to the car. Some of you may even practice this Olympic sport in your very own home. When I first heard about this absurd sport, it was on the NBC Olympic coverage. Like most of you, I thought it was a terribly fantastic and elaborate joke. It was not a joke, and I think that makes it even funnier.

Bush Is A Dude Just Like You (Update)


If you thought the picture below was too good to be true, then here is another one for you. You may hate him or love him, but you can't deny he is human.

Bush Is A Dude Just Like You


The Olympics have and will continue to bring us heartwarming stories of perserverance, hard work, and the like. It will also bring us awesome pictures like this one (click for larger version) of President Bush checking out some ass, errr, volleyball. ENJOY!
