The Recount Of Doing It Gangham Style & Zeppelin Exploding Terrible TV Shows

If you haven't heard about it now, there's a dance-y song out that became a viral hit; it's known as Gangham Style from Korean pop singer Psy. Besides the tune being incredibly catchy, the video is extremely wacky and so is the dance you see featured in the video.

Man, what an odd start to the week I had. Monday itself wasn't too eventful, until the evening. As I've done for awhile now, I watched the show Perception. The show had some famous guest stars, like Freddy Rodriguez, Dave Thomas (yes, the former SCTV guy) and Steven Culp. It was a rather odd episode to begin with but then it took quite the ballsy left turn that in hindsight was pretty awesome. They also obviously trolled at least part of the fanbase by having something happen, and that amuses me. As that episode was ending I got on Twitter and got some shocking news, that being Jerry “The King” Lawler, legendary wrestler turned announcer legit had a heart attack during an episode of WWE Monday Night Raw. That was sad to hear as I used to be a big WWE fan and it was common nature to hear his commentary each and every Monday and while watching the pay per views. He's also an awesome pro wrestler and I've seen him wrestle a few times before.

To try and pick up my spirits I found and watched a really obscure but now a cult hit online movie known as Miami Connection, actually set and filmed in Orlando. A company found a print and has taken it on tour. It is SO bad and yet so hilarious no wonder it's become a cult hit. I have no idea if it'll ever be on the big screen in Orlando even though that makes the most sense so I was glad to find a copy of the full movie on YouTube to watch (but shhhh on that) and it lived up to the high expectations. It was a no-budget thing but those goofballs from the area I've called home since '04 tried their best. After that I had to watch a repeat of that night's Attack of the Show. Yeah, it was to oogle and goggle a certain brunette. I've never enjoyed the program but it was atrocious. A co-host was some Arabic guy I had never heard of before and when you could understand him, his “humor” was more like anti-humor. And of course he interviewed her. At least she was pretty and she was funny too.

Yeah, I think only I can have days quite like that.

Tuesday, I ended up going out to dinner with someone I know; as it was close by we chose the nearby Bob Evans restaurant. The two times I've been to that location, it was mainly filled with old people, which is alright with me. I'd prefer them to bratty little kids, who were there too and I had to sit not that far from those noisemakers. Good job on the parents to control those hellions, I say. After that, the evening wasn't too exciting, but I did watch a lesser-known movie featuring that brunette, and it was certainly more entertaining than I expected.

Wednesday. I did something I really should not have done, but to be fair I had to see it for myself to confirm my suspicions that it was the worst show of all time, and boy this was proven true. I could only make it a few minutes but I did indeed watch the tire fire/train wreck/zeppelin explosion that was Here Comes Honey Boo Boo. The Hindenburg going down in flames... less of a disaster than this show! After that experience, I almost wish that the Mayans were right concerning the world ending in December, because of people actually enjoy that worthless exploitative garbage... sigh. It's not even the fact that most of the family is disgusting white trash, it's that they're so happy to be exploited and to have many people laugh at them while they do obviously staged events. And people are happy to laugh at these buffoons. I do feel sorry for that 6 year old girl, though. She's just cursed.

Thursday, I went out and about. I ended up at the MovieStop by the Florida Mall. I looked around, turned in a few DVD's and got some more, then I ate dinner at the Dairy Queen inside the mall and walked around for a bit. While I was at the mall, I experienced quite the event... in the men's room. I was in a stall, when I noticed what certainly looked like a 100 dollar bill on the ground. My eyes grew wide and my heart filled with glee. After I finished, I picked it up.. it was actually an advertisement as on the back it talked about some sort of money making scheme that sounded like poppycock and hogwash to me. I was NOT happy about it.

I then ended up at the good old Friendly Confines to watch the Chicago Bears play against their hated (and longtime) rivals, the Green Bay Packers. The cheeseheads lost their first game, but it was to a really good team so there wasn't much shame in that. This game... it started off rather slow, but the Packers got going... and the Bears never did. They lost 23-10 but it wasn't as close as the score would suggest. Chicago just did not look too good.

At least I was able to have a few beers... and a big plate of chips and salsa, which I demolished. It took some time but the Wi-Fi finally worked there, so that provided a distraction, and I even made a joke about how the average Amanda Bynes drive was better than most of the Bears offensive drives; I patted myself on the back for that one. I had no idea until the next day that the young actress who has totally self-destructed got into yet ANOTHER fender-bender. She's had a shocking amount this year and I really hope she gets help for all of her personal demons. The same goes for Lindsay Lohan, who has a not too much better driving record, not to mention having many more problems in general.

Friday was rather boring; I just stayed at home and relaxed. Saturday, it was more of the same. I thought about going out and doing something, but it was rainy for part of the day and plus, I did not feel at 100 percent so I figured I would be better off staying at home and engag in more relaxation. Sunday, I did not do much more than that; I did at least use a coupon for McDonalds and that's what I had for lunch. Dinner was homemade tacos. I know, rather lame to have such a boring weekend, but next weekend for me definitely should be more entertaining. I have a variety of things planned, from seeing the Bears play a lousy team that they should be able to beat (the St. Louis Rams) to the UFC finally having another pay per view and barring any last-minute injuries (always a possibility for them considering the horrible luck they've had this year) it should be a good one, and other things that will be a surprise.
