Buy this phone.

July 28, 2008

Not only did Clark asked me if I checked his shorts pockets before I did laundry this weekend, I DID. And saved his wallet from peril. Alas, he has a few pockets on this particular pair of shorts, and his phone was forgotten and subsequently, yes, washed and dried.

When I opened the dryer and took out most of the clothes, the first thing I saw was a battery. FUCK! The whole thing had not only gone through wash, rinse and spin, but it had also come apart in the dryer at a very high temperature.

I went upstairs and broke the news. After I did, Clark put the phone back together and .. it turned on. Brett called him. He spoke to him. I sent a text. The phone works.

HOW? BUY THIS PHONE. THE MOTOROLA L6.

Actually, you should probably only buy it if you’re as big of an idiot as I am.

Two commercials that I don’t understand

July 18, 2008

I watch A&E for a good two hours straight on Monday nights because of my favorite show, “Intervention.” These two commercials air back-to-back about four times during that two hours:

OKAY. First off, if you need a marker, you’re going to get a Sharpie. Sharpies are fun. I love writing with them; it’s eerily satisfying. WHY, OH WHY, do they need DAVID BECKHAM to help them sell thse deliciously tipped pen treats? How much are they paying him? Moving? Get a Sharpie to mark all of your boxes. Sharpie is like, a term used for any marker even when it’s NOT a Sharpie. David Beckham? Really? Like, Kathy Griffin would’ve been cheaper, though no celebrity is necessary.

University of Phoenix – The New Pornographers? Not a connection I would make. People who listen to the New Pornographers heard about them in college. That one’s just kind of weird to me, but it seems like the University of Phoenix is a bit more legit than I previously thought based on the quality of this commercial and the music chosen.
