Familiar with Jack Shit?

I got this funny BBM and I decided to share it.

For some time many of us have wondered who is Jack Shit? We find ourselves at a loss when someone says, "You don't know Jack Shit?" Well, thanks to my efforts you can now respond in an intellectual way. Jack Shit is the only son of Awe Shit who married O Shit. In turn Jack Shit married Noe Shit. The couple had six children: Holie Shit, Giva Shit, Fulla Shit, Bull Shit, and the twins Deep Shit and Dip Shit. Deep Shit married Dumb Shit, a high school dropout. After 15 years, Jack and Noe Shit got divorced and she married Ted Sherlock and became Noe Shit Sherlock. Meanwhile, Dip Shit married Lota Shit and had a rather nervous disposition named Chicken Shit. Fulla Shit and Giva Shit married the Happens brothers in a double wedding. The newspaper invited everyone to the Shit-Happens wedding. Bull Shit traveled the world and returned home with an Italian bride, Pisa Shit. So from now on, no one can tell you that you don't know Jack Shit.

Falalalala...

Falalalala...
Heard it in a song, growing up.
"Falalalalalalalala means I love you..."
Yeah 'cause it's so hard to explain why I'm still attached,
Yet it's so easy to list the reasons why I wish I could forget you.
Falalalala...
I think they say that in daydreams or something.
You know, the ones where you skip and stuff.
I checked out on daydreams a long time ago.
Life is a 24/7 reality check.
Plus I'm not much of a skipper,
Fell too much as a child.
Falalalala...
It's what you say when you clog your ears and try to block outside noise.
You close your eyes and for a sec...
For a sec, you're in control.
You're halting the chaos,
You're filtering out the foolishness.
You can't hear the "I love you"'s,
The memories are replaced with blackness.
And then you're back to where you were
Wishing life was just a song.
"Falalalalalalalala means I love you."
At least with songs, you know exactly how they end.
Instead, it's all a big mystery.
A bunch of jumbled letters, left for you to draw your own meaning out of them.
Falalalala...

For The Love Of... Sleeves!

The best part of a shirt to me has got to be the sleeves. Weird, I know, but they send my fashion-loving heart into a frenzy. Puffy sleeves, tight sleeves, ruffled sleeves, see-through sleeves, embroidered sleeves, sleeves with dangly things hanging from them, off the shoulder sleeves, military straps on sleeves, sleeve mania.

When you rush into a store, there's already so many clothing choices to choose from. Women are willing to spend more time than men to look through scattered clothing. The moshpit is really a tactic that stores create to capture women, because by sifting through the clothes, we're likely to find and purchase other items we didn't intend to buy. I've never been a fan of the moshpit, so my eyes just dart across the bundles, looking for a sleeve that catches my eye.

To me, shirts, dresses, or sweaters are distinguished by their sleeves. Striped sleeves on a plain cardigan, Rihanna spiked sleeves in the "So Hard" video, Gaga sleeves...which one? It doesn't matter. She either has no sleeves or statement-making ones. Yeah, this could be another one of my crazy obsessions but no matter the season, sleeves are sure to take your outfit to the next level.

Famous Professions

Life events are always good for inspiring blog entries. Sparked from my own search for an internship as well as social interactions, I'm giving you five professions that come natural for people worldwide.

Optometrists: This world is full of eye doctors. Everyday, someone shows you a little piece of them that helps you see clearer.

Authors: Everyone has a story to tell. I remember reading a quote that describes us all being the authors of own dictionaries. No one can define you better than you.

Teachers: Each person you encounter teaches you a different lesson, whether it be about yourself or life in general.

Shipwrights: We build relationships with every individual we meet. It's our responsibility whether they stay afloat or sink.

Sanitary Workers: In life, you run into a lot of sanitation workers. These are the people responsible for either treating you like trash or clearing your life of any garbage that other people left behind.

Free Us From the Wrath of Your Mouth!

These ten victims are subjected to mouths that do plenty of damage.

Offenders: Thirstbuckets
Victim#1: Straw
Have you ever asked somebody for some of their drink? No? Don't like to drink behind others? Cool. But in the case that you have and there's been a straw in their beverage, dont you just hate when it's all chewed up?! Should've just gotten something to eat. Poor straw, it didn't ask for any of that.

Offenders: Jabber Jaws
Victim#2: Nails
Nail-biters become obsessive with this habit. Bet ya didn't know it was called Onychophagia. It can actually transfer a lot of bacteria. People with this habit have nails that are like midgets, they just don't get the chance to grow. One day they're going to come out with nail-flavored things. Yum?

Offenders: Hi-Schoolers
Victim#3: Old People
You've seen them...the kids coming out of high school greeting each other loudly on the train, telling everyone's business, and cursing up a storm. Annoying! And I'm sure at one point someone must've thought the same about me and my friends but the kids today seem sooo much worse. Although it irritates me highly, I feel even worse when old people are subjected to it. I know they're so much more conservative and it just gives them a worse impression of our generation.

Offenders: Religious Train-ers
Victim#4: Everyone they come in contact with
You know they're spreading the good word but you can't help but think, "Will...you...shut...up?!" They preach from train cart to train cart and break the silence with boisterous voices. I must admit, I'll always remember a religious train-er saying "B.I.B.L.E.- Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth" and its always stuck with me. Quite clever, I think. However the majority of the time, I enjoy watching the immediate response of the rest of the passengers. Earphones being plugged in, newspapers opening, eyes rolling.


Offenders: Professor Monotone
Victim#5: Students
These teachers remind me of the Charlie Brown teacher. Wahhh wah wahh wah wahhh. You can't really remember the last thing they said, you know it's important, it'll probably be on the test, your eyes are shutting, your head is dropping and your notes are becoming scribble scrabble. The sweetest victory is when class ends and you're finally free. Too bad you have to go through it again tomorrow.

Offenders: Angry Beavers
Victim#6: Their Children
Parents love to talk you to your ultimate death. You did something wrong and they just won't let it go. They don't feel good if they don't bash it into your brain about how foolish you are and how much better off you would have been if you just listened. You really wanna scream "Shut upppp!!!!" but instead you're a mute, thinking about other things until they're ready to stop. I call these parents angry beavers because they're obviously upset and all they do is damn (dam) you.

Offenders: Parental Advisors
Victim#7: The Friend with a Secret
These are the people who tell their parents everything under the sun. If something happens to them, they're dishing. If something happens to you, they're dishing. Wondering why their parents are looking at you sideways? 'Cause they know all your business! Sure they didn't tell anyone the secret you told them...they just told their mom or dad. That makes it okay... SIKE!

Offenders: Suckers
Victim#8: Thumb
My grandma went to great heights to get me to stop sucking my thumb when I was little. A sock taped around my thumb, salt and pepper, you name it. I went to bed so upset every night because once you start it's a hard habit to kick. But I'm thankful she did it because I hate seeing grown people sucking their thumb 'til its all gray and wrinkly. Eww. Have some pride.

Offenders: Teething Babies
Victim#9: Anything Within Reach
If you've never been by a teething baby, brace yourself if you're ever faced with the circumstance. Hair, clothes, whatever's laying nearby... even your face! They take no prisoners.

Offenders: Breath-Ah-Lie-zers
Victim#10: Innocent Bystander
Their breath was clearly lying to them but it's telling the truth to you... and boy, does the truth hurt! People should get in the habit of carrying gum or mints. Even if you don't suffer from bad breath, fresh breath is the best breath to have.

Feel Like Doing...Nothing?

I believe a good quality to look for in a potential mate is someone who is content with doing absolutely nothing with you. In my eyes, you can do everything with just about anybody but you can't do nothing with everybody. You can be intimate with anyone you're attracted to, you can go to the movies, out to eat, party, whatever your heart desires with this person or that person. It takes a special individual and a genuine connection to just be able to chill with someone without expecting intimacy from them.

Why do you think males/females tend to get jealous when their significant other is hanging out with close friends of the opposite sex? A lot of relationships are missing the friend component. Sometimes people who are talking to each other or dating get so caught up in the intimacy, that they forget to just bond. And it's cool to make someone feel wanted, but I think men should take into consideration that sometimes it's better to chill out. It can actually increase a woman's desire for you.

And by doing nothing, I don't mean staring into each other's eyes and twiddling your fingers for hours. Nothing is more representative of the lack of the need for mauling each other or jumping into one another's pants. It includes spontaneity, creativity and connecting. Being content with just the mere presence of someone? Now that's attractive.

From Boys to Men

The transition from boy to man is often disputed. Is it a certain age that they approach? A certain experience they have to go through in order to become a man? Males, everywhere, are critically analyzed for their actions. They seem to attest after the age of 18, or even earlier for some, that they are grown. However, many females argue that there are an increase in boys and a decrease in real men. Here are five distinguishable features.

1. A BOY is scared of love. A MAN embraces his feelings.
2. A BOY thinks about himself. A MAN thinks about others.
3. A BOY can't admit when he's wrong. A MAN uses his mistakes to make him better.
4. A BOY is manipulative to get what he wants. A MAN works for what he wants.
5. A BOY seeks others for support. A MAN aims to provide support.

Certainly, these are not all the differentiating factors. Transforming into a man involves going through both mental and physical puberty. Some men grow old and still act like children. Inspired by Clutch Magazine, here is a list of five things men should know before they're thirty.

1. Good Credit Goes a Long Way
It's important to maintain good credit, because it says a lot about you and weighs heavily in many adult decisions. With the internet, you can find out ways to increase your credit score and analyze what you're doing that isn't reaping the best results.
2. You Can't Stay With Mom Forever
Grown men living with their moms just aren't cute. Unless you have financial problems, it's best you find your own place of residence.
3. Women Aren't Evil
You had one scorned relationship. Get over it. There are plenty of quality women who want to fix those wounds if you let them.
4. Got Manners?
The days of holding doors for people and pulling out the chairs for women on dates seem to be long gone. Do you walk on the side of the street closest to the cars when you're strolling with your woman? And remember etiquette is important. Slapping your mouth at the table won't cut it.
5. Leave Your Comfort Zone
Don't be afraid to make that leap. Men are often afraid of risks. Get off the block and take a trip to somewhere you've never gone before. Learn something you never thought you would, like another language. It's worth it.

Friendship for Breakfast

I have this theory that each bunch of friends can be compared to...cereal. Yep, not your average comparison but a fun thought nonetheless.

Corn Flakes
The friend out of the bunch who you can count on to just flake on certain events. Love 'em to death but they have the tendency to dodge calls and go missing if they don't feel like showing up to places, or if they've done something wrong. These are the ones that are not really confrontational or struggle with indecisiveness.

Fruit Loops
In this day and age, you can count on one of your friends to be gay. Hey, you may not even know it. But whether you know it or not, the "fruity" one of the bunch takes this cereal title.

Cheerios
Mr. or Ms. Happy-All-the-Time. They're just known for being cheerful. Always good to run into if you need to smile or need a pick-me-up. Just make sure you return the favor if they ever do have an off day.

Honeycomb
The busy bee of the bunch or the one who's buzzing with all the gossip. This person is always on the move and has good social skills. Every time you run in to them, you're sure to get the scoop on something good.

Lucky Charms
This person has major luck or they could simply be the charming one of the bunch. Whether they have a way with words, are popular or stumble upon lots of great opportunities, they're known for getting themselves out of sticky situations. They could be a quick thinker or have charismatic characteristics.

Rice Krispies
Remember that song, "I'm so Krispy"? Yeah, if you don't its probably better that way too. Krispy was a slang term created to signify good fashion sense. The friend who's closet you always want to raid and is always well put together.

Special K
The one that leaves you wondering where you got them from sometimes. They could be very intelligent but are known for always saying the silliest things.

Trix
"Trix are for kids", so this friend is either the youngest, the most naive, or the one who acts the most childish. Could be very gullible or they maintain a certain image of innocence and purity.

Apple Jacks
You always have that friend who just seems like they were built with tough skin. Could be the fighter amongst your circle. Often sarcastic and could be considered as pessimistic by others.

Cap'n Crunch
Known to be bossy, the Cap'n Crunch friend is also considered the leader. They're known for constructing a lot of plans and dictating what everyone should be doing.

Cocoa Puffs
The wild child in the crew. Always down to do the craziest things and is known for coming up with wild ideas. They live life with spontaneity. They could get you into trouble but they're fun to have around because you never know what to expect when they're around.

For The Record: Rude Boy

I love the production of Rihanna's latest vid. The graphics, colors and artistic feel are a great twist on all the videos that are out right now. It looks very Andy Warhol meets the 80s meets the West Indies. It's fun and Im happy Rihanna has taken it back to her roots. The industry has been missing a Pon De Replay track.
