You are In Flames


This band is way better than the Yeah Yeah Yeah's or the killers.

What Band Are you?

As if

I know you have all seen this bullshit put on the pumps when you're pumping all of what you made all year into a mere half a tank of gas. I noticed something that I've taken the liberty to highlight:



Marketing costs?
Marketing Costs?

Whoa, whoa, whoa.
MARKETING COSTS?

I had this rant with Chad Emm about this. It's not like any gas is better than any one else's gas, and even if it were, how the fuck would I know the difference? My car's not a ferrari. My car burns grade F- gas.
Besides that, what the fuck is there to market about gas? It's not like a typical beer commercial, saying something to the extent "Buy our gas, it'll give you better sex appeal" or "Ladies will flock to you if you buy our gas."

But then again, that might be pretty funny:

Breakfast Surreal

This story is sort of old already (the box of mini-wheats is already done!), but when I posted it last time it just didn't work!

So, without much further ado..

I bought some cereal when I moved to Saskatoon, the good stuff: shreddies and mini wheats. Now, I'm 23 and I am pretty keen on all these tricks these cereal companies do. "Collect 6.02x10^23 UPC's and we'll send you a FREE wristwatch!!!! FREE!!!" Yeah, whatever. Who's gonna take the time to collect them to claim a shitty prize? Not me.
I've had too many childhood dreams crushed by a cereal CEO. "Mom, we should get this cereal, it's got a cool prize!!!" Of course mom would try to tell me, but you can't reason with a 4 year old.

Anyway, when I saw the box, this is what I saw:




whoop de fucking do, a camera. I'm not collecting any UPC's.

So I went about a week before I actually looked at the box more carefully and I noticed:



Free inside? Fuck that; You've got to be kidding?
Right?

No, serious.
You're kidding?



Imagine the look in my eyes when I pulled the half-full bag out of the flimsy cardboard box to notice a shitty camera at the very bottom of the box.


What's next?
This?:
