Really? How?

The latest thing is posting just your bra color on facebook which may or may not have started as a Victoria Secret catalog suggestion. Rumor has it that morphed into using the idea to open discussions on breast cancer awareness. It’s all bullshit. We’re all well aware of breast cancer by now.
How exactly does posting your bra color of the day do anything to fight against breast cancer?
Remember all those green washed avatars to support what was it, Iran? How exactly did that make a difference?
The blacked-out avatars at least was a visual clue to whomever was looking that many people were aware of that particular political topic. IIRC it had something to do with copyright laws and screwing people over. At least that did something.
Then there’s the ribbons on your cars. There’s a variety of available ribbons for every friggin’ cause out there. Supposedly if you buy an actual ribbon some of the money goes towards that cause. I’m not sure how accurate that is. But photo-shopping a ribbon on your stupid avatar doesn’t do squat.
Just because it’s so easy to “show your support” of a particular cause it doesn’t really mean you are actually supporting the cause ya know. Stop paying lip service and make some effort.
The next time you’re all fat and happy and say you support X-cause-of-the-day I want to know how. Did you give blood? Donate to cancer research? Send a care package to the troops? Write an actual letter to a politician?
Really? Then stick THAT on your avatar.

Not that I give a shit how many women Tiger Woods has fucked, other than it’s a shitty way to treat one’s wife. What maybe interests me more is this statement by Brit Hume:
So if you’re a Christian and you ask for forgiveness, you’re off the hook for fucking 17-odd women outside of your marriage? Somehow I don’t think his golf-club wielding wife would agree.
Fucking Christians got some balls, y’all. That’s what I always thought was fucked up about Catholics. You could pretty much do anything you wanted during the week as long as you went in and told it all to some guy in a box, said a few words by rote and went on your merry way. Confess and be absolved.
Then there’s the Purity Balls. Daddy takes little girl out to the fancy ball where she takes a virginity pledge. Creeeeepy. How controlling is that? And where are the Purity Balls for the boys? Oh hell no, they get to go out and screw around all they want with “bad girls” then confess their sins and be forgiven. Then marry virgins who don’t know how to please/be pleased so they have bullshit excuses to go outside their marriage to find sensual women. And sometimes other men, cuz God knows you can’t be gay either.
EVERY SINGLE DAY something comes across my screen that just proves to me that Christianity is fucked up. Hypocrites, egomaniacs, cheaters, or just plain brainwashed idiots. Sheeple led by charismatic shepherds.
I mostly feel sorry for them. Dupes.
Tyler, I told you it was a man!

To everyone in general and to Tyler Hurst specifically, these fucking ugly, unsafe, and extremely stupid shoes were designed by a MAN named Alexander McQueen. Betcha HE’LL never even try a pair on.
10 inch stilettos, what a Fucktard.
And shame on the stupid cows who wore these down the runway, endangering themselves. A girl could get killed falling off these. Is it really worth your idiotic career to take that chance?
All the single ladies my ass
Sep 16th
So just for shits and giggles I decided to watch the five nominated Best Female Videos to see if Kanye West had a point. I mean, I had to go look for them HERE because I don’t see a lot of videos in my life. Didn’t there used to be a whole cable channel devoted to music videos?
- Taylor Swift’s “You Belong To Me.” Won? It’s a cute little video where nerd girl wants boy, boy has cheerleader, cheerleader shits on boy, boy sees nerd girl, love. Wasn’t that a movie a few years ago?
- Beyonce’s “Single Ladies” makes no fucking sense at all. She’s singing a song to the single ladies to get a ring on it before… what? Can’t understand half the words and I ain’t looking them up. The point is, she’s singing to the ladies yet dancing half naked to entice all the single men. Or boys rather. Mixed message anyone? Female empowerment my sweet patootie.
- Katy Perry’s “Hot and Cold” is an amusing video. At least the story goes with the song and it looked like fun, but it seemed kind of ’80s to me.
- Kelly Clarkson’s “My Life Would Suck Without You” may have had a story to it, but it was more close-ups of her face. Why bother trying to make a story video if you’re not going to show the story?
- Lady Gaga’s “Poker Face” was at least visually stimulating. Lots of sparkles and costumes and interesting camera shots.
- Pink’s “So What” actually had a real story to it, and seemed completely in character to what little I know of Pink’s actual life. I could see her having this kind of a meltdown and that made it fun.
Kanye should stop talking with/as his dick. Sure Beyonce is beautiful and talented, but that video was a waste. She looks like a jerking Barbie Doll and shakes her ass. That’s it. Nothing to do with the actual song as demonstrated here with someone’s edited version (thanks Iain).
I would have picked Pink’s as the best of that bunch, hands down. She’s kicking ass and chainsawing down trees. Now that’s female empowerment!
Hey, something new!

This is interesting. What an elaborate and completely bizarre way to mine your credit card information! Props to the person who thought this up and heads up to those gullible idiots who will fall for it.
I got an Care2 eCard from Secret a minute ago. My first thought was bullshit but then I figured what the heck, let’s check it out. I clicked the link and there was a beachy painting with lovers at the bottom, followed by this note:
DebbieHi Debbie… This is difficult for me to do because Im shy..but I have a crush on you. Ive never been able to tell you for reasons which you would quickly identify as obvious if you knew who this was. With that said I want you to guess who I am and approach me yourself.
To help you out with your guessing I made a few pictures and videos with Debbie written on my body. Theyre kind of risque photos so I had to made a profile at www.newsafesecure.com (copy & paste or type www.newsafesecure.com into your web browser). My username in the members area is DebbieandME09. Its a free website but you might need a CC or Debit to verify your age because I had to. Sigh.
But anyway sign up at www.newsafesecure.com and once you are inside search for me. I want you to guess who I am and then approach me yourself. Im shy and this is the bravest thing Ive probably ever done but you need to do the rest.
Kisses
Secret Admirer
Pshaw. There’s no way in hell I’m going any further. Oh sure, you might need to enter your credit card information so they can charge you $X-amount for the next 6 months until you get it killed, just to find out you’ve been suckered.
And on the off-chance that this is legit (hahahahahaHAHAHAHAHA) Secret should just send me a regular email so I can slap the shit out of you for being so scared of me. I’m looking for someone to admire me! And in the meantime, look up when to use an apostrophe.
Kisses
Debbie
P.S. I don’t pay for my porn, thanks.
Short-Shorts? Really?
Aug 19th
Apparently the major gossip discussion on the “news” channels is Michelle Obama’s clothing choice for her recent visit to Arizona. Seriously?
First, those are not short shorts. Mid-thigh is not short. If you can’t see the cheeks of her ass hanging out the back, they’re regular shorts.
Secondly, if you’ve never been to Arizona in summer you shouldn’t have an opinion. She’s dressed for comfort, especially when outside for an extended length of time. What should she wear hiking the Grand Canyon? A designer gown and high heels? That’s ludicrous.
And lastly, who the heck cares? That’s the problem with having multiple 24-hour “news” stations. Not enough substance to talk about that you need to fill your time with nonsense?
Michelle Obama has grace and style when she needs it. Why is it such a big to-do when she chooses appropriately? If she shows up in this ensemble for a state dinner then you stupid people can bitch.
Family drama
Jul 26th
I know you can’t pick your family. I sure as shit wouldn’t have picked mine.
First, I’ve mentioned my niece Miss B has a new baby she named Damien Gabriel. And she’s living with a guy who is apparently a complete asshat. I don’t know him but from what everyone in the family says, he’s as useless as a third dick. Miss B has chosen against all advice to stay with this person so my lovely sister has sued for emergency custody of the baby and won. Now she’s holding this baby hostage to everyone’s good behavior. Beth is one of those people who if you cross her she cuts you out of her life. She hasn’t spoken to me in years and I still don’t know why. She hasn’t spoken to our mother either, but has graciously allowed an hour visit a week to Mom. Mom says those visits are rife with tension and false pleasantries but she refuses to be baited into argument because Beth will then have an excuse to cut her out again.
This is all happening in Florida so there’s not much I can do or say. I’m not there to get in the middle or mediate or anything. I’m disappointed in Miss B for choosing a man over her child, but her mother did the same thing years ago. I feel I should call her and remind her of how she felt when her mother shipped her out here to me. I feel I should call my sister and remind her of her own EXACT behavior years ago. But I won’t call either of them. I’m not there, I don’t know fact from hearsay and I really don’t think either of them would listen to me anyway.

Secondly, Casey finally got around to phoning his baby mama Sky. What a fiasco that was. Kira got to talk to her Mommy for the first time since last NOVEMBER and now she’s completely confused. She thinks Mommy is near and she’s coming to see her. Then Sky’s completely deluded rant about expecting Casey to send Kira to see her in Indiana for 6 months of the year, shared custody. Are you still living in a homeless shelter? Yes. Do you have a job yet? No. She thinks she’s got a leg to stand on. I do believe this might just light a fire under Casey’s ass about actually getting the divorce started instead of just talking about it all the fucking time. She cheated, had children by another man, lived with yet another man, seldom asked to visit her daughter and when she did she’d send her back after just a couple of days, and finally left the state without notification and put her other children up for adoption. Oh yeah, mother of the year there.

Max called yesterday and they’re in San Diego this week and will be here on Saturday. I can wait, now that he’s safely in the States. He called again a few minutes ago to laugh at all the geeks/nerds he’s seen around because of Comic-Con. I explained that he was disparaging my people and that I’d love to be there, and now he says he’ll stop by tomorrow and get me tickets for next year. They go on sale in the morning. We’ll see. I’m pretty sure if he gets the tickets I can find a place to sleep there.

After my obligatory call to my Mother I called my Dad – which is always nicer. He spent 10 minutes talking about the wonders of 5-minute energy drinks. Dad, you do realize that’s not good for your already stressed heart? Ask your doctor before you try that again!
I vant to be alone.
There’s been a possibility of a booty call from a new neighbor. We had an almost session the other night, but he was a little too freaked out about GirlChild downstairs and a lot too drunk. I never know when I’ll be home alone and he’ll be available and I’m moving in two weeks, so it might never happen. Oh well. His favorite saying? It is what it is. And it is. We’ll see.

My Meandering Mind
Jun 29th
I’m getting excited about my trip to Minnesota. I got the laundry done and most of my stuff packed. I may have to use the bigger suitcase.
I talked to the people at the new apartment and apparently my credit sucks so I have to come up with a bit more security deposit. The date is still on, August 8th. And I’ve decided there’s no way this carpet will ever get clean so I’m sure these guys will take replacement costs out of whatever deposit I may have had coming here. Oh well. EVENTUALLY money will loosen up.
I finished a couple of books last week. My Horizontal Life by Chelsea Handler was first. My friend CJ suggest it. It’s just a slightly amusing play-by-play of this woman’s one night stands. But about halfway through it just got boring and stupid. I mean, one amusing story at a time is cool, but this just goes on and on. I finished it. The other book was Seth Harwood’s Jack Wakes Up. I met Seth a couple of times (and we twitter) and he was in town Thursday for his book signing so I figured I’d get his book. I went and we all hung out after. He’s another podiobooks.com author. I’ve completely given up on listening to podiobooks. I can barely keep up with the regular podcasts I like, much less get involved with an ongoing story.
I cleaned the nail polish off my toes last night and freaked at how long my nails had gotten. Don’t have a man around to bitch about getting poked.
I have a bit of a dilemma regarding ThatGirl. You know she skipped town with her twins and ended at a homeless shelter in Indiana. She’d ran after the wrong man online. I heard she dumped her year old twins with his Aunt and now has signed them over. The aunt is adopting one of the girls and her cousin is adopting the other, so at least they will still have a connection. My dilemma is, I feel I should contact this family and give them Kira’s basic information so if in the future those girls want to find their sister they have something to start with. I’m not sure if I should leave well enough alone… or stick my nose in. There’s no telling what the future holds and how often Casey will move and change addresses and phones so if there’s to be an information exchange it should be now. For the kids’ sake. Then again, at the rate ThatGirl pumps out babies and then abandons them, there might be a whole litter out there in a few years so why bother.
Speaking of not having a man around. I don’t know why. I get out. I socialize. People seem to like me. I have (married or too young) men friends but I can’t seem to find or interest an available guy for me. Geeze, I don’t want to get married I just want companionship or even an occasional date. I wish someone could just tell me what I’m doing wrong.
I’ve had three different bites on my Dragon*Con tickets, yet no follow through. How hard is it to paypal $70 and your address to my email? Today if not sooner. Really, stop saying you want my ticket if you aren’t prepared to do it right now.
I think my ex-husband got married last week.
Has-been celebs have been dropping like flies in the last few weeks. I think Americans give their celebrities way too much attention and it climaxes with their deaths. Hours and hours of TV retrospectives and gossip mongering. Okay, David Carradine died jacking off, that’s all we need to know and maybe a quick replay of his credits before winning the Most Bizarre Finale Award. We don’t need 1,867 headlines of piecemealed out “information” repeated so often that the actual facts (if you ever find them) get lost in the noise. But that was just a warm-up for the whole Michael Jackson drama. Seriously, doesn’t anyone remember the child molesting? When he bought and paid for his children and dangled one over a balcony other weird shit we’ll never know about? Until the kids get old enough to write their own stories, that is. Although the man was one of the most talented pop songwriter/dancers in our history, he was FUCKING CRAZY. Yeah, I cut him the eccentric artist slack for a long time, but the scales were too unbalanced at the end. Maybe now the rest of his family will find some other tit to suck on. Probably Janet’s, she sure likes to put it out there.
Okay, I’m done for now. I really need to get stuff organized. Later…
Repeat after me:

“That was a stupid irresponsible thing to do.”
Not me! I’m fucking brilliant compared to my son and his idiot friends.
First there was the M-girl that was so trashed by the time they arrived in Vegas that she sliced the shit out of the back of her leg while shaving and then passed out cold in our hotel room.
Then there’s my son who disappeared for hours with the only vehicle, coming back late and with an empty tank so CJ and I despaired getting to the airport in time.
Then there was (again) my son who decided to stay with the bunch instead of flying safely home with me.
After that, there was the idiot B who drank beers while driving the van homeward, got busted in Kingman for a DUI and got the van impounded. Because my son was also too drunk to drive and apparently those two of the 6 were the only ones with driver’s licenses.
Those four other people who for some stupid reason don’t have driver’s licenses. How stupid is to NOT have a driver’s license?
The one who called me and got pissed off that I wouldn’t drive up there and save them. From their own stupidity.
(Let me clarify, had they had car trouble or an accident or something else out of their own control, I would have gone to get them.)
Oh, and the drunk ass driver and his wife who left their kids at home with her parents and let the power run out instead of putting extra cash on the m-power. Priorities, right?
They got B out of jail late this afternoon and because the van is in his name they couldn’t get it out of impound before closing time. So they’re stuck there another night.
Life lesson #54. Don’t fucking drink and drive doubledumbass! What a bunch of fucking losers.
Repeat after me: “That was a stupid irresponsible thing to do.”
Alltel means what exactly?
May 31st
It sure as shit doesn’t mean Allover Telephone… or anything close.
Alltel does NOT have coverage in Las Vegas. Las Fucking Vegas! One of the biggest tourist cities in the US, and I roamed the whole time.
Alltel does NOT have coverage on the entire island of Oahu. Goddamn Honolulu! Again, one of the top tourist places in the US.
Check out their “coverage map” if you can see it. Isn’t that special. Can’t enlarge it, can’t get anything specific, and their color options make it impossible to see the actual differences.
I’m pretty sure I didn’t have service in Atlanta either. Can’t remember.
I did find a way to run Internet on my laptop through my mobile (something called PdaNet) and it worked okay, but at roaming prices it would have probably been cheaper to get the WiFi from the hotel. Guess I’ll find out when the bill is due.
