awkward family televisions

What oh what could be put on the screen of this television to tempt people into buying it? Amazon, SHOW ME. Oh... haha, really?

thoughts on utility

So this week I went out for breakfast-for-dinner (HOLLER) with some friends at Randy's. One of the hallmarks of this spot is that the interior is pretty zany— hot pink and orange über retro furnishings, and for good measure, a collection of aerospace models hang from the ceiling. A shamelessly standard greasy spoon menu seals the deal. It's got a certain je ne sais quoi.

On this special day we stumbled on the crowning glory of Randys' weirdness. Enter, the toilet brush. It is displayed proudly on the bathroom counter - barf - but to conceal it, they've cleverly added this lace-ridden teddy bear number. If you MUST put something this visually offensive on a toilet brush, for god sake don't make it porous. Shit's gross, man.

hold please

Hold music seems to be distinctively awful no matter what line you happen to be on. This gem is the hold music for the conference call system at Microsoft. It's silly that they chose this song in the first place... and it's even sillier that the title for the song is "Kickin' It Hard". Listen to the preview... ain't nothin' hard about it.

i guess i like what i like

Today I bought two shirts from H&M... when I got home I set them on the table. I realized my new shirts and my chairs wanted to be friends. Coincidence? Maybe, but probably not.
