I went to the Padres - Red Sox game today. It's very odd...I used to sympathize with Boston fans because I know what it's like to root for a team that never wins (Padres). Granted, I've never had my heart ripped out, stomped on, and then flushed down the toilet (Bill Buckner), but I've seen my share of losing seasons. The Red Sox are sort of like my American League team. I don't follow them that closely but I root for them if they're on tv.

The thing that pissed me off today was the way their fans acted. Now I'm all for going into the enemy's stadium and cheering for your team. I am also a Bronco fan, and I have played this role many times when they're in town to play the Chargers. It's also fine to rub it in to the home fans when your team wins. To a point. But don't act like you won the fucking World Series after an unimportant game against an awful team in the middle of June. The Padres starting lineup today featured such notables as Deivi Cruz, Ray Lankford (struck out 4 times = Gold Sombrero), Julius Matos, D'Angelo Jimenez...I could go on but I'm making myself want to cry. Suffice it to say that we fucking suck. The only thing holding us together at this point is Bochy. Anyway, these people were ridiculous. I have been to hundreds of Padre games over the course of my 21 years here, and before this night I had seen exactly 2 fights. One was at game 3 against Houston in '98, and it was the greatest fight I have ever seen...but that's another story. Anyway, tonight there were three just in my little section. They all started basically because arrogant Red Sox fans were running their mouths. Bah....I'm rambling. Fuck the Red Sox. It sucks because I can't bring myself to root for the Yankees either. Fuck.

It's funny, maybe I'm a moron, but I believe the strip club owner on this one. Are people going to go to his particular club because of patriotic images on a billboard? Doesn't seem to me like a way to increase business. I guess people don't like the idea of the 9/11 firefighters and such being tied to a strip club, but to say that they're being used to increase business. People go to a strip club because a) they like the women or b) location. It's as simple as that.

Maybe I'll start this up again. I don't know...I got kind of lazy before.

You know what, this is great. Nothing like a little Mormon bashing. I remember taking a trip to Colorado when I was younger, and when we drove into Utah, I saw that somebody had altered the little sign that marks the Utah/Colorado border. It originally read: "Utah, Still the Right Place." It now read: "Utah, Still the Right Wing Place." Pretty funny... Of course the reason they are disliked is the holier-than-thou attitude, but I guess that's no different from any other group of far-right religious zealots (one could probably also make the same argument about the far-left, but that's another story). I think it boils down to the fact that they don't drink or smoke, but they are allowed (I know not technically, but it still happens quite frequently) to have multiple wives. I mean, think that you're better than me because you're going to heaven and I'm not. I'll think you're an idiot but I can at least respect your belief. Don't think you're better than me because you are free from all vices and then proceed to fuck your thirty-seven wives. Arrrrrrghhh. One last thing...my boss' 17 year old daughter started dating a Mormon guy around a year ago. When she told me about him she was happy because she figured he would be a good influence because he doesn't drink, smoke, do drugs, etc. She is from Peru, and had little exposure to Mormons in her native land. Thus I felt it was my duty (being the asshole that I am) to inform her that while Mormons are opposed to drinking, smoking, drugs, etc., they are not opposed to fucking. Yes I told her that, and yes my boss is cool. Anyway, she dismissed my claim, saying that his religion would prohibit that as well. Whatever. Two months later she comes to me and says that she found condom wrappers in her daughter's room. Ha!

Well, this is what I was talking about...I'm drunk again. Luckily I don't really have anything to say. Except that it is weird seeing people that you haven't seen for 4 years and finding out that they haven't changed at all. Does anything ever change? Shit, I know I've changed a lot since high school. Well anyway, it's time to pass out. I hope I manage to puke in the toilet (I would settle for the trash can) instead of all over the bed. That would be good.

Has there ever been more of a non-story than this? I can't believe people are worrying about when to take the flag off the logo. There was an article in The Onion a few weeks ago about a guy that didn't know when he was supposed to take down his flags. Of course part of the reason why The Onion's satire is so brilliant is that it is usually true. Now of course NBC has to be a little more worried about offending people than you or me because there is potentially a lot of money at stake. Really, it's very simple. If you feel like putting a bunch of flags up, go for it. More power to you. If you don't, that's fine too. There is not some kind of formula that measures one's devotion to one's country based on how many flags he or she has stuck on the car. It was very easy to get caught up in patriotic fervor in the days and weeks after 9/11. I think it was actually very good for the country that it became cool once again to like the USA. Great. But please, let's not be so fucking neurotic about everything. "Uh oh, what will people think if I take the flag down??" When did this culture become like this anyway? I've only been alive 21 years, but when I was younger I don't remember people acting like this. I swear it wouldn't have been a question 10 years ago. Is it because of Seinfeld? Are people subconsciously channeling George Costanza? Hmmm....weird.

Saw The Royal Tenenbaums recently. Liked it, but not as much as Rushmore. I think the stories were of about equal quality, in fact TRT's might have been better, but in Rushmore the chemistry between the actors was 10 times better. The interaction between Jason Schwartzman and Bill Murray and Jason Schwartzman and Olivia Williams was what made the movie. Plus TRT completely underused Bill Murray. You don't give fucking Danny Glover more lines than Bill Murray. Ridiculous. You gotta love Owen Wilson as the drugged-out cowboy though. I still laugh thinking about the part where he's doing the interview and he randomly stares off into space and whispers "wildcats........grrrrrowwwl". By the way, the site that I linked to with the reviews is great. Check it out if you've never been there and you like dick and fart jokes, for therein you will find dick and fart jokes of the highest order my friend. It rocks Saddam Hussein's ass in the words of the immortal Wesley Willis.

I just made some english muffins (Thomas'). I love english muffins, but why in the name of God are there those little things on the bottom? What the hell are those? They don't have any taste, they don't enhance the appearance, they basically do not improve your english muffin eating experience in any way. Their only purpose, as far as I can tell, is to completely fuck up the bottom of your toaster oven. Is there anything more infuriating than cleaning the damn thing out only to find two days later that the dots have accumulated again? I swear to God, we can put a 5000 lb. bomb through somebody's right testicle but we have not figured out how to make a mess-free english muffin. Absolutely baffling.

Well I decided to start a blog. I'll probably only be posting if I'm either: a) rambling drunk or b) really bored. So what this means for you the reader is that to enjoy the site you will have to be either: a) drunk or b) really bored. Anyway, I am a 21 year old college student from San Diego, California. Please try not to expect the following things: maturity, coherence, original thought, common decency, etc. Generally it's going to be filled with whatever random crap happens to be in my head at the time. If I find something worthwhile I'll link to it, but in general, don't expect any kind of commentary on anything of substance. I'll leave that to people who actually know something, and/or give a shit. Congratulations if you've read all that without attempting to bludgeon yourself to death with the keyboard out of boredom. Alright that's enough....it's time to move on.
