Random blog thoughts

Today, two things have been posted on most of the gossip blogs and I feel the need to comment on them. First of all.Does anyone else think this picture looks like one of those things at the fair where you put your face in the cardboard cutouts? It looks very unnatural and they don't look like they go together. She looks like Jenny when she married Forrest Gump and he looks like a used car salesman/frustrated accountant. And it also looks like they stood in front of a green screen and the background is totally fake. I have no ill will towards these people and wish them all the best, but this is an odd photo. I really hope that they are actually playing a trick on OK magazine and they really got married in their swimsuits in Cabo. They just got this crazy cardboard cutout picture made and sold the rights to OK to torture Denise Richards and to pay for their honeymoon.
And can I also comment on how annoying/ridiculously funny the headlines are on this page? Charlie's dream wedding! DENISE'S WORST NIGHTMARE! "I'll never utter her name again. You can't reason with crazy." Thanks for that wonderful psychological assessment Charlie. You have always been the picture of mental health yourself. And why do they feel the need to point out the fact that he wore a Men's Wearhouse suit. Is it really that hard to believe that he would wear a suit from there? Oh, that's right. Her diamond ring is 11.6-CARATS!! AHH! She must have his babies right away. Maybe this is just me, but I think it is so gauche to talk about how many carats your ring is. How about how he makes you feel? Does he cheat on you with tranny prostitutes? Probably not, but that's what Denise Richards wants us to think.
So I also have to comment on this piece of greatness.

Anybody who works in this kind of office can see how this guy could go off. Maybe not to this extent, but I think you're lying if you have never wanted to beat the crap out of your computer/fax machine/copy machine/phone at work. My one piece of advice for people who work in cubicles is to thank their lucky stars that they have the privacy of a cubicle to escape to. I know it sucks and you feel caged in, yada, yada, yada. Here at the non-profit we have to save space by all sitting on long rows with no dividers in between us. This is "good stewardship."
This just does not seem that practical to me considering we are a call center and a lot of the people who call us are old and can't hear so we have to yell into the phone. There is nothing like apologizing to your caller because they can hear a coworker screaming the word "prostate" or giving a detailed explanation of how to do a self breast exam. Think about me and my long row of publicness the next time you pick your nose in the privacy of your own cube.
Have a great Thursday!
