I saw a dude on the train reading a book called Sudoku for Dummies which seemed only marginally more retarded to me than a book called Word-Search for Dummies, which for all I know is a real title. I hate this series of books, partly because it seems such an obvious mockery-target, with obvious jokes built so obviously into its title. Here are some obvious jokes:
Fake "...for Dummies" Book Titles for Dummies • Jeopardy! for Dummies • Mensa for Dummies • Graduating from M.I.T. with Honors for Dummies • The Numerals 1 through 5 for Dummies • The Color Red for Dummies • Ditchdigging for Dummies • Encouraging Negative Self-Image in Your Readership for Dummies • Attainment of Complete and Instantaneous Spiritual Enlightenment for Dummies • Self-Immolation for Dummies • Being Mute for Dummies • Accidental Bunny-Killing for Dummies Things That Make Me Uncomfortable Because They Remind Me of the Holocaust • hollow logs • Costco • encaustic • concentration Popular Musicians that Make Me Mad (how mad; why) • Ying Yang Twins (very mad; they are gross. also: that honking sound. also: "ying"?) • Gwen Stefani (occasionally mad; the perception that she has a good fashion sense) Finally, you know that I don't link to things higglety-pigglety. I try not to lean on the linking to fluff up otherwise spare posts. And I recognize in myself a tendency to get hysterical over certain faddish elements of pop culture in a way I find embarrassing after the fact. Still, I can't help but proclaim the following song, by Liam Sullivan's valley girl character Kelly, the BEST THING EVER: Shoes. 0 comments |

(see also: "grassy-ass!") PET PEEVES "confinscated" - trying children "as adults" - "drownded" - misuse of reflexive pronouns, as when someone says "Please talk to Bob or myself." Come on people now.
