Are you cool??
In the almost two years I have now spent on facebook, I have come to one completely solid conclusion: your level of coolness is directly proportional to the number of wall posts you have received from members of the opposite sex. Guys like to think that every time a girl even looks their way, she's interested in them; therefore, they look at their entire wall filled with posts from girls and they know that they are cool. I mean, what guy wants to have only guy facebook friends and get only wall posts from other guys? The answer is none of them. So add up your wall posts from the opposite sex and if they outnumber the ones from the same sex, you're cool. FYI: I'm the man!

McDonald's...psh
Well I missed dinner tonight, and I ended up getting caught up in some tv shows and didn't leave to get food until 10pm. Now this is what I do usually once a week or so, head to McDonald's for some late night snacks because they're the only place open 24 hours. And I've noticed that it always takes FOREVER. Granted, it's right at a busy intersection, but come on...I blame it on crappy staff. So anyway, I went tonight and noticed two things about this glorious restaurant chain. First, I'm pretty sure they only make a one-size-fits-all shirt for the employees. I tend to like tighter shirts that don't have the short sleeves hanging down way past your elbows, but every single person I've ever seen working at a McDonald's is wearing a huge shirt. Either they only make one size, or the thug people who work there like to wear bulky clothes so they can hide guns and drugs in them. Second, the people who work inside never ever ever ever ever look at the person sitting at the drive-thru window until their food is ready to be handed over. The lady handed me my food tonight and turned around to prepare the next order just as I discovered that my burger had onions on it. So I'm holding up the burger, frantically trying to make eye contact with the 3 people standing inside and not one of them looks over at me. Finally, the next order is ready and the woman walks over to the window, opens it, and halfway handed me another bag of food before she realized that I was the same customer as before. Somebody needs to tell the McDonald's employees to work on their people skills before somebody gets mad and throws the food back through the window at them.
People are idiots.
What's the deal with this whole "Don't Buy Gas on May 15th" thing? Why are people such sheep when it comes to things like this? It's been done many times before and it's NEVER WORKED. People drive automobiles. Automobiles require gas. It doesn't matter if you buy gas today or next Thursday, you're still going to buy the gas because you need it. So who cares if a million people don't pump gas on the 15th? That means they're all filling up the day before or the day after, so the companies aren't losing anything!! To really make any tiny difference at all, you'd have to get everyone to stop buying gas from one particular vendor so that they would lower their prices slightly. Good lord, if I worked at a gas company I'd be laughing my butt off at these morons sending around this e-mail and making facebook and myspace groups.
