Alex Reads Twilight

Before I introduce the greatest youtube series ever, I need to give some background.

Typically I am anti- all things that tweens are into. These things tend to be so incredibly sappy, unrealistic, and generally extremely terrible. To top it off, I can’t stand large groups of twelve year old girls squealing together and thinking they own the place. It obnoxious and it drives me out of my mind.

Then Twilight came out. Not even going to give this a chance. It’s all the things that I just described.

Then New Moon came out. I kind of was interested from the previews. A lot of my friends are super into the whole saga, so eventually I broke down. I saw Twilight, then a week later saw New Moon (in theaters, and sweet Jesus there were SO MANY squealing teenagers!).

I’m not even going to try and closet my feelings. I <3 Twilight. I’m genuinely happy I gave it a chance, and I’m actually pretty surprised I liked it so much. I could watch it over and over (well maybe no more than twice a month lol) and not tire of it. Edward? Yes please.

But we also have to talk about the fact that it’s all of the things I traditionally hate. I’ll give the sappy, unrealistic-ness of it all a pass, since that’s part of what makes it enjoyable. But the acting is abhorrent and there is no excusing that. And I can’t get past the Morman undertones/subliminal indoctrination. To top it off, we’re talking about a SUPER unhealthy relationship here. Edward is kind of a stalker and Bella needs some self-esteem stat. I haven’t read the books yet, but I have a feeling that the quality isn’t going to be that great so I’ve been putting it off.

And then MZ introduced me to Alex Reads Twilight.

OMFG I haven’t laughed this hard in years. He points out all the nitpicky things that I would find problems with and makes fun of them. Whether you love or hate the Twilight Saga, I really think you’ll appreciate this series just based on his sarcasm, wit, and British accent.

So here it is: Chapter 1

(note: he seems to only do ~2 chapters a month, and as of today he’s only up to ch. 14. it’s completely worth the wait)

Unattended Children

OK here’s another funny sign that deserves its own post.

I don’t need any further commentary do I? LOL

Thanks, Kelly!

Roller Karussel

Let’s face it: People do stupid things. When your average person falls down walking down the street, that’s not funny. But when someone attempts to do something “extreme” and eats it, yeah, that’s pretty funny. Really it’s just Darwinism at work. And that is why this is HILARIOUS.

Thanks MZ for the entertainment. I almost peed myself when I watched this.

No Bro

This is getting added to my Fun Signs page, but it was so awesome that I decided it needed its own post as well.

Thanks to Jess for pointing this out to me, and credit to Mission Mission for this great find!

“I mean, I avoid “the bro” every chance I get. But to straight-up bar them from the community? That seems a tad bit like overkill.”

Agreed!

People of Walmart

I honestly can’t remember if I’ve posted about this site in the past or not. Either way, I just realized it’s not linked on my “Sites That Entertain Me” for some reason, so it deserves a new post. Anyway, there’s not much I can do to tell you about this. The photos – even better yet, the captions that accompany these photos – speak volumes on their own. Take this one for instance:

"Okay, you need attention, gotcha. Now at what point do you decide the best way to draw that attention to yourself is making your backside look like a weird long-nosed martian? Even if you legitimately had a 3 foot striped tail, there has to a better way to accessorize it."

Plenty more where that came from at peopleofwalmart.com

Truly “Special” Sighting

I’m at the airport. It’s snowing outside. I chose one of the very few seats available next to a window so I could watch the flurries. The man seated next to me is wearing ski goggles. That’s right – we are INDOORS and the dude is wearing ski goggles.

This doesn’t require further commentary.

Why I <3 Old Men

Basically, this is the best thing that happened in football this week. Tennessee Titans owner Bud Adams decided to stick it to the Bills after their big win. And since he’s 86, the best way for him to do that apparently was with his hands. Amazing.

Was it worth the $250,000 he was fined? For my entertainment value, absolutely!

Top Tier Television

After a long summer hiatus from quality programming on television, it seems that things are back in full force! I realize now that there are WAY too many good shows on and I know I’m missing out on a bunch of really awesome ones. Like Modern Family. I’ve heard it’s great, but I never added it to my TiVo, and thus it’s not a part of my weekly routine. And I’m behind anyway. Downloading shows and catching up on multiple seasons is such a pain in the ass, so I think I’m going to spend my winter break catching up on what I can. Like marathon days in front of the television.

So here’s the list of shows I’m addicted to and watching religiously:

Cheating Death

We all know how much I enjoy Stephen Colbert. I also really enjoy his “Cheating Death” segment, as it’s a sure source of comedy. Last night’s edition of this segment was probably one of the funniest bits of all time that I’ve seen from this man. Seriously genius. And so funny that he himself couldn’t keep from laughing. Enjoy!

Jackass

Usually it’s great to have the president talking about you. I guess not if you’re Kanye West.

Imagine this:

“Oh yeah, the president was talking about me!? What did he say”

“He called you a jackass”

LOL
