Thoughts to Masticate To
Mar 26th, 2007 by Alex
I’ve been making a conscious effort to cut back on the profanity at work, on my blog, at crew. Impressionable minds don’t need to listen to my foul mouth and it doesn’t add a whole lot to the conversation. I also think it’s about time I came up with some new adjectives and adverbs to use, all while reserving profanity for times when I really want to get my point across or hurt someone’s feelings. While I adjust, I anticipate a lot of prancing about screaming “fu fu fu” at the top of my lungs. It’s a process, I tell you.
Howard County cops shoot radar during rush hour. Can you believe it? On northbound 29, just south of Columbia. On westbound 100, between 29 and 103. Nuts, they are. I didn’t get pulled over, but I thought it a bit strange to risk causing serious backlogs and jams. No other county is that pressed to meet their quota.
I recently heard a radio personality say that a can of Coke has 1000mg of caffeine, in reference to the case of soda that Britney Spears was reportedly drinking every day while in rehab. There’s no way that a can of soda has a gram of caffeine in it; not even Jolt. The Internet says so (and so does Dr. Mohamed Izham Mohamed Ibrahim). More incentive not to believe everything a DJ says, especially when it comes to facts and figures. I heard another one (on the same station, MIX 106.5) say that there was a 100% chance of rain. Bull. That’s not a chance. That’s a certainty, such that “it will rain” or more accurately “it is raining now.” Lottery tickets, anyone?
Bueller?
