Since the beginning of 2012, McCrabby has observed some ridiculous lack of common sense; he has begun recording his thoughts on this and is publishing those now. There may be more to come, because this is such a HUGE topic to draw from. If you suggest others, and if we get several, we'll include yours in the next list (leave a comment on the blog). Here is a list of some observations so far:
Have a great weekend, and good luck on your job search.
- Congress has a nine per cent approval rating and a 90+ per cent re-election rate - how ignorant is our electorate?
- McCrabby's investment company just sent change of address confirmations on two of McCrabby's accounts... to the old address.
- A television advertisement for an acne medication has a potential side-effect of suicide.
- Apparently, according to current advertising, we are more apt to buy beer if the container carries a label that will indicate whether the beer is "COLD" or "VERY COLD" -- Thank you.
- Why are toilets so low? McCrabby has "handicapped" toilets in his home (they are two inches higher than regular toilets and otherwise identical), and they just seem right ('nuff said).
- Why do professional tennis players need to grunt, scream, sound like a turkey being slaughtered, every time they hit the ball? Jimmy Connors, John McEnroe, Martina Navratilova and Chris Evert never did, and they hit the ball at least as hard. In fact, McCrabby bets those players would walk off the court if their opponent screeched like a turkey with each hit.
McCrabby watched a sitcom this week with no laugh-track. "Modern Family" is a pretty good situation comedy on TV that has no laugh-track, so you can laugh where you think it's funny -- in a show last week, an actor entered and said "Daddy's home," and the laughter was intense. McCrabby didn't laugh. Let us decide what's funny - most aren't.- Come on guys - when you're in a public bathroom, at least PRETEND to wash your hands; get em wet, or better yet, really wash them with soap and water, whether in public or private. McCrabby will be more anxious to shake hands with you next time we meet.
- Cell phones - oh never mind, we'll never fix all that's wrong there.
- There is a group, that calls hotel guests, pretends to be hotel personnel, and convinces guests of an emergency where they should break out a window, or destroy the television, or cause other costly damage (See story HERE) -- two questions: 1)WHY? what do they get from causing such damage, and 2) how stupid are people to fall for following through on a phone call to break the TV?
"The Hunger Games" just came out this weekend -- some people waited in line three days to get into the first movie; do they realize they could go two hours later, by getting there ten minutes early? What do these people do for a living??
