Hey, I Can Be Angry Too

Hate to break up hot.pork's posting for the day, but I'm sure we all feel he probably did really well on all his tests and reports today, right people? I know I think he did well.

Anyway, I'm going to share my anger with you folks right now. So I finish up with classes today, eat something and come back to my room. All I have to do for tomorrow is read a play, so I'm in no rush to get that done. I turn on the TV, and start watching. So far in the past 30 minutes I've seen the same commercial four times. Normally I wouldn't care, but this particular commercial is really pissing me off.

It starts off with a black screen and a voice over that says, "Hey Pittsburgh, want to see your favorite comedians live?" So now I'm interested. Yeah, I would like to see my favorite comedians live. I think I'd like that very much. "Well, tickets are now on sale to see Cheech and Chong at (I stopped paying attention here, so I don't know where those guys are playing or when), and Carlos Mencia (same thing, don't care when or where)."

Really, those are my favorite comedians? Well then, I guess I have shitty taste then don't I? Fuck you television.

Uh, I think you mean Carlos Mencia is the greatest Latino comedian since Cheech Marin.

Also, you mean the human brain wasn't meant to function under the Chinese language, right?

Honestly, I'm not convinced Chinese is a real language at all. Actually, I don't think there are really any languages other than English, which I call American because I feel we earned the right to take their language for ourselves at this point. But anyway, back to my original point. There aren't any languages but American. All those other "languages" people speak are nothing more than different American dialects. That's all.

Don't forget gibberish. They could be gibberish.

I was reading Little Nemo in Slumberland, and Flip (the Filipino bum guy [hah, bum guy]) said "Speak United States!" to some tribal man. I think that is awesome; its the ancestor of "Speak American!" and, as such, I will now issue the phrase priority.
