Are Mah Eyes Deceivin’ Me?!
My co-worker Kevin’s job is to find awesome stuff on the internet. And when he finds truly superbly awesome stuff, he passes it out. I’m fairly certain he hit the jackpot with this one (even if he actually saw it on TV first).
This is an infomercial. Someone took all the good parts and chopped it down to a little over 5 minutes of fantabulousness. It has it all! Door breaking down! Hollerin’! Neat-o food appliances! Hip terminology like “jibba jabba”! And some BLING!
But most of all, it has THE man.
Yes, I’m talking about that hip cat from Rocky 3 and the A Team: The Great Mr. T.
I present to you, Flavorwave:
Also, Mike was in Seattle last night for business. Today at the airport he saw this:
In case you can’t make it out, this bitch and her man both have a perfectly ironed crease in their pants. AND she’s wearing stirups. STIRUPS. I wore those in high school and even then it was pushing the fashion limits for 1992. I just want to know what goes through people’s heads when they get dressed in the morning. And those fuckers where flying to Houston. Y’all know they live in Cleveland or Willis or some shit. They’s goin’ to the big city so they had to put on their good clothes.
Man, I’m such a bitch.
Sunday night Me, Mike and Kristen are going to see Chris Cornell at Warehouse Live. That’s a very intimate venue. I think capacity is like 1500. Y’all jealous? You should be. I get to go re-live high school and college when he kicks it old-school Soundgarden style. If he pulls out some Temple of the Dog (even without Eddie OMG Vedder) I might have to pee a little.
But I’ll tell y’all one thing. I won’t be wearing no fuckin’ stirups. That’s for DAMN sure.
Since my Buffy marathon, I’ve had a hankerin’ for some good old grungy 90′s alternative rock so I wiped my iPod and filled it the sounds of Nirvana, Candlebox, Counting Crows, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Foo Fighters, Stone Temple Pilots, Sarah McLachlin and Goo Goo Dolls. Seriously, the best era of music in my book.
Diggin’ out the docs and flannels…

OH PS! Mikey got to ride first class the other day. He was all sorts of pumped. Check out his blog. Y’all should be reading it regularly anyway, bitches.
If you honestly think that people from Cleveland wear stirups then you can’t come here. And we’re not friends. And And Cleveland’s a big city.
Unless there’s a Cleveland in Texas. The, we’re friends again.
Yes, there’s a Cleveland, TX right outside Houston. Cool. I’m calm again.
ONE WEEK!!!!
Oh Mr. T… You have become a jibba jabberin’ fool.
Nancy, yes Cleveland, TX. Home of a Walmart, El Burrito Mexican Restaurant and some gas stations.
Mike stop lolrskatin’ in my blog.
“… and American Icon … Mr. T!”
Kevin, I challenge you to incorporate “jibba jabba” into daily work conversations.
OH BELOVED JESUS!!! Fuckin’ stirups! You got to be kidding me lol. That’s all sorts of wrong. The cowboy boots just top it off. What a pair of crazies. This just made my day complete hahaha.
That infomercial is so awesome! LOL. Kudos to Kevin!
The stirrups? Girl. I didn’t even know they *made* stirrup pants anymore! Wait… maybe they don’t, which makes that woman even more sad… but funny to us.
Enjoy Chris Cornell. SO jealous! Love you guys. (and I”m STILL not getting email notifications on Mike’s blog, so thanks for letting me know he has a new one up. WTF?)

I’ve actually seen this infomercial on TV. At like 3am. It’s awesome and been on for quite sometime now.
