I am working on a Saturday. I am not so amused. :(

Anyhow, the song of the day is this annoying song that one of my co-workers has sung non-frickin' stop for the past week and a half. Now, even though he is not here, I can still hear him singing it over and over and over! I don't know what it's called, I don't know who does it (I think it's some Amy Winehouse person), and I haven't even heard it actually done by the artist, but if what my co-worker keeps singing is any indication, then I'm sure it's not my cup of tea (which, for those of you keeping track, means that it is probably the smash hit of the summer, and is well-beloved by everyone, particularly my wife, who is probably buying the album as I type this...like she did with that piss-annoying 30 Seconds to Mars bullcrap, but I digress). The song, as far as I can tell goes like this:

They want me to go to rehab
I say no no no.

But sometimes my co-worker mixes it up (don't know if Ms. Winehouse does or not)

Try to make me go to rehab
I won't go go go.

Seriously, if these are legitimate lyrics to an actual song, then beam me up, Scotty, there's no intelligent life on this planet. No, wait. Scotty died. I'm stuck here in Hell. *sigh* At least he stopped doing the Gwen Stefani "WOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" noise, I guess I should be somewhat thankful for that...

That's really all I've got. Got to keep it short at least, since didn't turn out very sweet at all.

And, no, this was not a reaction to Scott's post today entitled Sweet. Although it is rather odd...

And, of course, Amy Winehouse is someone's Obsession here at goo.tc! Once again, Destiny has struck true with the groin shot of Ironic Misery.

Yeah, I know. You purists out there are ready to tell me that isn't really irony. I don't care! :P

Actually Rehab is rather annoying but "you know I'm no good" is catchy and still soulful enough sounding that I like it....i actually like listening to the whole album except for "rehab" which usually gets skipped

Thanks for unleashing Gwen's back-up vocals in my head, Aaron -- and I *was* about to congratulate you on one lucky break. Now, I just have a big F-YOU. ;-P

13-X-2006 or Yeah, yeah, yeah I know what day it is.

Why is it that the sanest people I know (not saying much) always go batsh!t on Friday the 13th? It's a day! Go »

2-VIII-2006 or Why am I so angry?

Yeah, I decided to go with putting in the date. It makes me feel chronological and stuff. Welcome to Day 2 of the blog! Go »

16-IX-2009 or Behind The Scenes (GE)

For those who are not aware, my first character in Gothic Earth is retiring. I believe that Scott is going to keep him around to use for his own undoubtedly nefarious purposes, but essentially, I am done with him. There were many reasons behind it, but there was just a single overriding reason above all others: I found myself unwilling to continue with him. Go »

24-VI-2019 or Your move!

So, some of my co-workers (though technically subordinates, but I hate those kinds of terms) went digging around on the interwebs and found me here on Funeratic. They said I should write more blog posts because they are great. Ok. Go »

4-XI-2008 or Historic Vote

Well, I just voted. I have to say this is the first time that I have been totally regretful as I walked out of the polling center. Even now, I have a pain in my stomach, and I'm wondering to myself, "Did I do the right thing?" Go »

25-IV-2007 or Ze pearl is in ze river

That's a quote from a weird movie I saw back in the day. I think it had Chevy Chase and more vertically challenged people than I can count (including the famous Billy Barty!). The details are sketchy at this point, but I believe there was a secret message to be passed to the person who gave the code phrase, "The pearl is in the river." Go »
