Random Thoughts

Where do they find "ugly people" for movies? I mean, think about any movie with a dating montage, they usually have a bunch of ugly people peppered in, and the audience goes "Ugh!" before the main female protagonist meets the male model love interest of the film. Do studios just put out an open casting call for ugly people, and people show up?

And who are the people who take these roles? Do they see the open casting call for ugly people and think, "That's me! Now I can have 5 seconds in a Nia Vardalos movie so the audience can recoil in disgust at my tragicomic face!" Do they actually go to see the movie, and if so what do they think when the audience goes, "EWW! You can do better than THAT, Nia Vardalos!" Or are they just actors who realize, "Well, I don't have leading man looks, at least I have my niche! It's a paycheck!"

If I ate French Toast this morning why do my farts smell like pancakes?

Sorry for the bump, but this one really grinds my gears:

Does anyone else think that girls having phony Facebook names is about the most conceited thing you can do? I mean basically it's saying "You can't friend me, I don't want you to be able to find my profile. If I think you are worthy of being my facebook friend, I will search your real name, then I will add YOU."

I mean I get birthday announcements, and I don't even know who half the people on my friends list are anymore. "Today is Gina Romano's birthday." Who the fug is Gina Romano? Oh! It's my friend Olivia!

What. The. Fug.

My favorite thing about the filters on the Huddle is the filter generated word "dippoo."

I want to start using it in real life: "Dippoo!"

Yeah, you know you are on the Huddle too much when you start replacing the words IRL.

Sometimes I don't do the laundry...I febreeze.

I heard Britney Spears (feat. Nicki Minaj & Kesha) - Till The World Ends (Remix) this morning. It is the sound of music dying choking on its own vomit. Lady Gaga is it's death rattle.

Whoever came up with the idea for bodypainting should be given a Nobel lifetime achievement award in the field of winning. Serously, how great is it to ogle Kate Upton's bare knocks unashamedly in the comfort of my work office chair?

It's amusing to me that people have favorite/preferred brands of water.

I love watching great truck drivers do their job. In D.C. there is this Shopper's where the loading dock is just wide enough for the trailer to pass through with about 3 feet of space on either side. And it's accessible only by a tiny, 2-lane street. You used to be able to see it from the bar where I used to hang out and the bartender and I used to bet on how many times the driver would have to straighten out and back in again. Average was about 3. But there was one guy who could back that sucker in perfectly every time on his first attempt. 

 

My point being, in every sci-fi movie, the pilot is usually a young science geek. How the hell is that kid or busty blonde going to successfully dock that freighter? I mean even airline pilots need to be towed into the gate. Just once I would like to see the pilot of a half-million ton star-ship depicted as a grizzled, gray-bearded guy with a beer-gut, yellow sunglasses, and a cigarette that's half ash hanging from his mouth who looks like he can line up a garbage truck with a dumpster in his sleep. Because I honestly believe when the time comes, they will be our space jockeys.
