Brooklyn’s Finest – 4 out of 10

Well.. I saw it yesterday afternoon. It was a boring Sunday and I had nothing to do – so I finally watched this movie that my wife rented a few weeks ago. I didn’t WANT to watch it because I had a feeling it would suck – but it was the only non-chick flick we had. It has three or four (I forget) washed-up actors – I know two of their names: Wesley Snipes and Richard Gere. The other two (yeah, there were definitely two) never became famous enough for most of us to remember (though they’re not bad actors).

Why can’t police officers to lead by example?

Let me get right to the damn point. Why can’t police officers obey the speed limits on the road? Not only do they speed, they do so blatantly – because *I* speed – and they pass me. I always drive five miles per hour over the speed limit. Reason being, all speed limits are set too low for me. Especially for my car – which handles and brakes amazingly being a BMW. Some cars are easier to drive fast with than others.

Women’s Hyphenated Names

So I went with my wife to watch her Vampire movie last night – Eclipse – and it was mostly boring. There was one decent scene for guys where the vampires and werewolves teamed-up to fight these new-born vampires – but that was at the very end, lasted about one minute and didn’t make up for the rest of the movie. The rest was 150% chick flick.

Towards the end when what’s his name called what’s her name ‘whatever her name is’ with HIS last name at the end (since they were getting married), she said something like, “At least hyphenate my last name! It’s the new millennium!” (like everyone is doing it) or something stupid like that. That part of the scene was obviously an afterthought probably added for some lunatic feminist sponsor because you could tell it was just kinda stuck in there – it wasn’t smooth at all…

Road Complaints

How is it that we’re living in the year 2010 and we still have to sit at a red (traffic) light for a full minute when there’s nobody coming down the road on the side where it’s green? For God’s sake! We can fly to the moon! We can split an atom! We can PROBABLY even travel through TIME for all we know (as worthless pee-ons) – but we can’t figure out how to put sensors in, under or on the roads so that traffic lights can function accordingly with the existing traffic condition. Is it just me?! It CAN’T be! Say it ain’t so!

Cadillac! Lose The Stupid Lock Stalks Already!

What the holy fuckin’ satanic hell are these brain dead executives and designers thinking when it comes to lock stalks?! Don’t know what a lock stalk is? It’s that stupid piece of plastic that sticks out near the top/back of the doors on what used to be a small but comfortable arm rest – especially convenient when driving with the windows fully opened.

Chances are you have no idea what I’m talking about since most car companies stopped using these stupid things in the 80s. But Cadillac, in their ultimate wisdom, still feels the need to stick these annoying pieces of plastic on the doors. Why?! What purpose do they serve other than to stick in my arm?

Sprinklers On Rainy Days

So now that I’m sitting on the balcony of my room on a cruise ship, almost drunk, with no Internet connection at the moment, I can blog about this rant that’s been on my mind for about a week now.

Down in south Florida when we’re having water restrictions where you can only water your lawn or wash you car on certain days of the week… Why is it okay for the town to be running the sprinkler systems in the rain? It’s 2010. Isn’t there a way to set up the system where when it’s raining out, a controller can turn off these sprinklers during storms? What a waste of water! The town should be fined for running the sprinklers during rain storms – and again for being so “Floridian” lazy that they never upgraded the system to allow for settings that would prevent this waste of precious water. Isn’t it better to be proactive than reactive? If cars can have rain sensing wipers – why not sprinklers?

Tips For Cashiers? WTF?!

Is it just me? Or does it annoy the hell out of anyone else? You know what I’m talking about. The “tip” or “gratuity” line where you sign when paying by credit card at a store or food joint like Field of Greens, Starbucks or wherever. Aren’t the employee’s wages the responsibility of the business owner? Since when did it become our responsibility – as customers – to pay a portion of this besides what we already pay when we purchase the product? Is anybody falling for this? Must be otherwise they’d stop this nonsense.

I Could Care Less. Really?

Doesn’t anyone realize that when a person says, “I can care less” – it ACTUALLY means that they CARE?!

“You know what, Sal?! I could care less!”

Well, thank you! That’s wonderful! I’m thrilled that you care and that what I just told you doesn’t lie at the bottom of your list of things to care about – since you CAN care LESS about other things. :)

Now if you told me the following:

Women… And Sex…

A good friend told me about this girl he had sex with a few weeks ago. We both happen to know the girl for quite some time. He mentioned that she’d be uncomfortable with me knowing what they’d done. Obviously, he told me – but between guys – this is no big deal. The girl, however, didn’t want to be thought of as a slut or whatever. It WAS the first night they’d met.

Oh! So that’s different now. Right? Wrong… Who cares? What does it matter? Between two concenting adults, what’s the big deal about having sex? Or how long you both have to suffer and wait until you can do it without it being considered “taboo”?!

Life is……..

Hmm. I provide my wife with a beautiful home, nice cars, shoes, pocketbooks, hair, nails and cosmetic accessories out the ying yang, weekly massages, healthy food, cruises and various vacations several times per year. I have a career that I love. I’m healthy and in excellent shape. And I’m a decent, honest guy. My goodness. Who’d have ever thought I would manage all this. I really don’t feel all that different from the guy who had no car and had to walk an hour to work in the rain thirteen or fourteen years ago. I think life has treated me well. If I were to die tomorrow, I’ll feel like I accomplished everything I really needed to – besides living to a ripe old age. Though I WILL be 40 in 2011. But that’s not exactly ripe. Unless you’re under 30, I suppose.

A Man’s Hairy Ass

After a grueling cardio workout this morning, already uncomfortable and exhausted, I walked into the men’s locker room (I wish I could just use the other one) and to my stout disappointment the first thing I saw was a man bending over with his hairy ass facing straight at me. More often than not, I walk into the locker room with my eyes about chest-level to avoid making eye contact. Making eye contact in a men’s locker room in South Florida isn’t the best idea if you’re straight. Anyway, my sore eyes wished they were looking higher today..

Why Switch to Bing?!

There’s a saying that goes something like, “If it’s not broken, don’t fix it”. I can understand switching browsers because some are faster than others – and some just suck (like Internet Explorer). But why switch search engines if you’re already using Google?

Is Bing really going to last? If so, it’s only because it’s integrated into Internet Explorer and Windows (it is, right?). Why else would it succeed? Does it do anything better than Google? Nope. Does Google do anything better than Bing? Yes. So why switch?

I can tell when you’re lying…

No, I’m not a human lie detector like Robert De Niro in Meet the Parents – but I’m pretty damned good at figuring out whether or not someone is telling the truth… I recently had somebody lie to me – but I didn’t confront them about it. It didn’t affect my life in any way – so I didn’t really care – but it was so obvious to me.

Is it me? Or is it everybody else?

Have things changed so much that people are no longer comfortable driving around with their windows opened? Has society become such a bunch of intraverts with the Internet as their new reality that the possibility of outdoor human interaction is frightening to them?

Five years ago when I lived in New York, people opened their windows to experience the air and outdoors every chance they had. Here in South Florida in 2009, even when it’s beautiful out at 70 degrees on a clear, sunny day – people are driving around with their windows closed and their air conditioners on. Are people just in such a habit of automatically getting into their cars and doing this? Or do they just feel more secure closed-up inside their box – safe from other human beings?
