Pure Corporate Hate

February 23rd, 2010  |  Published in criticism

Why the f*ck (thats fuck) was the USA versus Canada Olympic hockey match shown only in low-def on Directv?  You had Curling in high-def, but not the center stage of the Olympics?  You abysmal, impotent bastards.

And don’t tell me why.  Don’t feed me the PR Pablum.  I don’t care about your stupid contracts, your negotiations, that you are the ‘leader’ in high-def.   That you tried real hard.  The 100 dollars a month I spend makes you freaking responsible for my media happiness.  I expect only perfect images on my 63 inch plasma and you failed, you miserable spankers.  And I know the dirty secret here:  You had the nerve to send me the same bill after you killed my Indycar season when you dropped Versus – and you will surely send me the same bill for having to watch smear-o-vision hockey.    And like a flubbering dolt, I will pay it, not because you are better than the other idiots, but because I am locked in and it’s a pain in the neck to switch.  Re-programming all the remotes would take a week alone.

So I scream, rant, stomp my feet, and call you names:  you pedestrian Troglodytes;  Mullets;  Butt-monkeys.

Ice Dancing

It appears female ice dancers wear more mascara and they like to dress up.  I know that they are cute and talented – but failed – ice skaters.  Its sort of sad, but uplifting in a weird sort of way, beauty coming before talent and all.  And they do dress up all fancy.   Ok, maybe I don’t get it.  The American’s dress up as Indians (from INDIA) while the French dress up as cowboys (from, I think, the Tenderloin District in NY).   They need to fight the couples together and that would be something…
