What did you say?

Yeah, Wendy updated! I have to agree... as an insomniac, I get to see many of the infomercials. The worst are the ones for that "creepy motivational guy�." (BTW Wendy, you can copy that registered symbol into the word processor of your choice and then use it whenever the mood hits you. Or you can use Character Map like everybody else does.) He wants to tell you how to make lots of money. All you have to do to get rich is send him lots of money and make him rich.

See, Character Map has all sorts of useful symbols, like Ǽ. Whatever that is.

Thanks for the informative yet unwanted lesson on the characters Pete. You must understand that I do not have time for all that crap and I don't want to be like everybody else. Really, when I want your help I will ask for it. Can't I just be me? Can't I?

I think that would be a great job. Watching infomercials and getting someone else to pay for you to try out all the crap that's pitched. Like my in-laws got that oxy-clean stuff... didn't do crap. I mean sure if you've got a fresh stain it might work, but then so will cold water and a rock.

...oh and by the way, I saw you were looking for me (that is explained in my latest post) awww, it was nice to be missed though.

Infomercials are just so depressing to me. How excited are you supposed to get about something that slices deli meat. And isn't that why we have deli's? So they can slice it for you? I saw the infomercial about the egg peeler and here is my thing: the ad said it could peel like 20 eggs in a couple of minutes. Seriously, when was the last time (at home) you needed to peel 20 hard-boiled eggs. SEE--depressing. (and gross)

Listen up people. Effective immediately: Anyone who does not enter their goddamn URL when they sign a comments page will be subject to severe fines and punishment to be determined by me*. The nice intelligent people who designed this joint included that for the sole purpose of making my life easier. I can't bitch but so much seeing how I have not done it a few times myself but I will be trifling no more.

ok it's exactly like this.

If people didn't buy things from infomercials, there wouldn't be infomercials. If people didn't buy things because they saw a commercial there wouldn't be commercials. If there weren't commercials, there wouldn't be commercial TV. If there weren't commercial TV the only way we'd have TV would be via pay cable. If there was only pay cable, poor people couldn't afford TV. If poor people couldn't afford TV they would have to read to get information. If poor people didn't have TV to tell them what to do, and they had to read they might learn something. If poor people learned something, they might learn a skill or a trade which would earn them money. If poor people earned enough money they would stop being poor and wouldn't need to sponge off of the government for subsistence. If the government was no longer needed for subsistence, people like Al Gore would be out of a career. So the reason there are informercials is because Al Gore wants people to be stupid.

I take it this is a bit of a sore spot for you.

Wendy - 2004-07-25 20:48:59
Okay HRT. I agree with whatever you said. My point is this: Commercials that last long enough for me to run to the bathroom and get a beer are one thing, but the one hour things must go. And Al Gore is a retard. And I am drunk.
-------------------------------
Wendy - 2004-07-25 20:51:21
I just clicked on HRT's name and guess what. I went to the Diaryland page. What does this mean? It means he failed to fill out his URL. Was I not clear about the new rule?
-------------------------------
Incredipete - 2004-07-26 01:33:29
Actually, it looks like he tried to fill it out, but somehow managed to eff it up royally.

How can you talk so badly about Al Gore, the man that invented the Internet? You bastards!

giggle *snort*

HRT - 2004-07-26 09:27:19
...oh and about the URL thingy... I was too lazy to actually type in my URL. That's what happens when you're using an antiquated computer that's running Win85 without autocomplete. You actually have to remember the things you want to type. Proving once again that Al Gore is conspiring to keep people stupid.

Now if I could only find the damn remote, I've been watching the same infomercial for 9 days now...

HRT - 2004-07-26 17:16:44
...oh and somebody needs to participate in this lively discussion, &/or update her **********************piece of*********holy******* site.
-------------------------------
Incredipete - 2004-07-26 18:48:26
If you think waiting for days on end to update is going to make us happy, you are wrong. Come on! If I can update 3 times a day, you can update every other day, at least!
-------------------------------
Wendy - 2004-07-26 20:08:51
Okay. I shall update. But don't blame me if you are not entertained. The*****pressure is too*****much for me.
-------------------------------
HRT - 2004-07-26 21:17:13
OK, I know I was the one who started the ****** thing. But I still find it hilarious. That is quite possibly the funniest **** that I've written/read in awhile. Course, Pete gets the assist on that one by saying that he would edit certain words off of his comment page. But we all know Wendy is sweet and kind...

And will curse you out like a sailor with dissentary...

Okay, fill this crap in first:
