So every one of my friends and coworkers probably know what a YouTube nut I am, as well as having a unhealthy obsession over internet phenomenons which have been given the endearing term “Internet Memes”
To my utter surprise, Weezer has gone ahead and done what I have once thought as impossible. A mash-up of sorts of all of the many YouTube videos and personalities that we have come to love and honor. And since at the moment I am more than giddy about this amazing video, I am compelled to share this greatness to all of you.
I’m sure there is a reasonable explanation for this video clip, such as maybe Miss Teen South Carolina just froze up in front of the audience, or maybe she was sick that day and couldn’t function properly, but it completely boggles me how utterly retarded some people can be in the United States. When asked a simple question about Americans not being able to point out US on a map, the poor girl starts rambling about South Africa, Iraq and Asia. As if they’re really the ones that need the help right? Someone really needs to teach her a lesson on how to formulate complete and logical thoughts. It does suck though, since she’ll probably never be able to escape the infamy of that fateful interview.
The video includes subtitles, just in case you had just as hard of a time trying to follow her jibberish as I did. Enjoy.
And the most surprising thing? This girl with the intellect of Brick Tamland actually went all the way to become the 3rd runner up in 2007. No wonder “the Iraq” hates us.
It’s been almost a week since I’ve left my previous job at Lockheed Martin, and as most of my friends already know, I’m planning to make the move down to Los Angeles to start a new career in technical consulting at Booz Allen Hamilton. The move is coming up fast and I haven’t done much in terms of preparation besides swindling a free meal out of my friends at Osteria in Palo Alto. Thanks guys.
Other than that, I’ve been keeping busy with the normal life of an umemployed bum. Recently I sent an email to my friends detailing my excruciating day that consisted of:
8:00AM - Wake up
8:00AM-10:30AM - Dick around
10:30AM-11:30AM - Oil change and tire rotation
11:30AM-12:30PM - Eat BCL with Freddy (since he wants to be a bum soon too)
12:30PM-1:00PM - Haircut
1:00PM-3:00PM - TV (Star Trek midday baby!)
3:00PM-4:30PM - Sleep
4:30PM-6:00PM - Work out
6:30PM - Write this email
Which then garnered the prompt response of “i hate you jay.” from Marcus. Although I thought I had an upper hand on some of the other bums we know (David), he had to one-up me and spent his day attending a charity auction, bidding and winning six rounds of golf at the Trump National.
I have also flirted with certain death and disaster immediately after my life and health insurance plans terminated. Going skydiving probably isn’t high on people’s to-do list without any type of insurance to protect you, but I say who cares, you either live or you don’t right? Either way, it was a fantastic experience and everyone has to try it at least once. There really is no bigger rush than free-falling at 120mph from an altitude of 15,000 ft. In the video below, you can see just how fast you turn from a 5′5″ person into just a speck in the camera lens as you see Margaret fall out of the plane right before I do.
Next weekend, snowboarding at Sierra at Tahoe. See you all there.
I also put some photos up in the photo gallery, so click through and enjoy.
