It's The End of the World...

You know the song. It's the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine.  What an amazing thing to say, when the world is being gripped with the impending 2012 apocalypse, when the world is seemingly doing everything it can to explode itself up, with only a small amount of help from us, the average human being.

To celebrate the impending doom of our world, I bring you two really cool videos I've found this year.  What are they of? The insane amount of earthquakes this year that are after all, completely explainable.  Nope, we're talking molten fury being spewed into the air, causing havoc on air travel the world round, and a freakish hailstorm in the American Midwest.  Check the jump to see the videos.

Damn you Capitalism...

Listen, I'm what most of my friends like to call a Conservative.  I don't put much stock in it, as I have some very socialist views, to go along with my Nationalistic fervor and the desire to make sure people actually speak English OR French before emigrating to my country... I mean come on, we give you two languages, PICK ONE OF THEM.  But unfortunately the common theory people hold Conservatives to, is that it's all about the money, big business is awesome, and if you're not paying your own way, you're a drain on society and should be tossed on the streets.

I only agree with about half of those statements, and no I'm not going to tell you which ones.  The problem with this is... Capitalism fucking sucks.  I like it better than Communism and all that, but seriously, it's bloody ridiculous.  I'm in the Marketing world. I sell crap.  I understand the value of spinning crap and making everyone love the idea of your product and see value where there is none.  The problem with advertising, is that it's mean.  You see, Advertising really only works on Stupid People.  Not just slightly stupid people, I mean completely, irrevocably, mentally retarded people; and we prey on these poor dunces like Hyenas on an injured Gazelle.

The reason for my rant today was an advertisement I saw on Television yesterday.  See the ad, and the rest of my rant, after the break.

If you celebrate Passover on an Overpass...

You'll go back in time.  It's funny right?  Thank you to Conan O'brien for inspiring today's blog title, because I had absolutely no idea what to call it.  So there's been a lot going on in the recent week that has me abuzz, has me wanting to scream my name to the heavens while wearing a raincoat and deck shoes.  What is it that has me clenching my fist at the sky, challenging the sun in this manner?  Boredom.  That's right, sheer, fantastic, soul-crushing boredom.  It's a time of renewal in the world, spring flowers popping up, seasons changing, and what the hell is going on in my life?  Nothing.
