SNL

So I know this could be lame but I love Saturday Night Live. I think it is really funny and I am probably one of the few people that still enjoys it past middle school. One of my good friends is almost obsessed with the show because one of her good friends from high school works for Saturday Night Live. I find their digital shorts to be the funniest part of the show. I have to admit that when Will Ferrell and Jimmy Fallon left I was bummed because they were my favorites. I have a rather dry sense of humor so when Andy Samberg joined the cast I lost it, he is hilarious and produces the digital shorts. The first one I ever saw was D*** in a Box with Justin Timberlake. I don't think it could have been more random if they had tried. I strongly suggest going online and watching a few of the digital shorts, look at J*** in my pants as well as Beyonce's Single Ladies video. If you don't laugh something is wrong with you :)

PS-If you have not seen the best of Will Ferrell volume one check it out as soon as possible. You will be crying from laughing so hard.

Job Loss

Can I just start by saying how excited I am to graduate in May? Ok well looking at "Bloody Monday" (yea they named it that) and today with a combined total of layoffs almost 73, 000 people I am scared. Huge cutbacks are necessary for these companies to stay above water but it seems to be getting out of control. With our economy the way it is I don't feel the job market will be strong again for a least a few years. I remember first becoming concerned when the car companies were going under and asking for bailouts as well as laying off employees. Scares me and can't wait to watch it all unfold as May nears (hint that is my super sarcasm).

Breastfeeding on Facebook

So Facebook banned pictures of breastfeeding because it violates the terms of usage. Mothers are coming together and forming a group because they say breastfeeding is not obscene. Ok yes breastfeeding is natural and I think it is an important for a baby, but I don't need to see it. I HATE when people breasfeed in public, um it's called a bathroom. I don't like kids so I think my opinion may be based on that, but seriously I don't need or want to see you posting pictures of a child feeding off your body, gross. I agree with facebook and they state in the terms of usage that a full breast can not be exposed in pictures and I don't think any exception should be permitted. It's annoying when people try to push the envelope because social networking is a fairly new concept.

Razzies!

Yeah to the Razzies, my personal favorite award show to follow. This year Mike Meyers extremely boring movie "The Love Guru" took the cake as the worst movie of the year. I actually did see this movie and it wasn't very entertaining. All I kept hearing is that it was a typical Mike Meyers movie, plus it had Justin Timberlake so I didn't think it would be bad. Wrong! And I agree with the Razzie award committee or who ever selected the winners. In previous years stars like Haley Berry and Tom Green have put an ego aside and actually showed up to accept the award. Haley Berry brought her Oscar and held it in one hand and her Razzie in the other, I respect that. I wonder is Meyers will do the same? Either way it is entertaining to read and I generally agree with the Razzies.

Oh and for the record I think the worst movie ever created was "Kazaam" the movie with Shaq.

Not all celebs care about drunken elephants

I love when celebrities pick a charity and go nuts about it. I am glad that their social status can make a change in something, like because they are the spokesperson you want to help save the stray dogs or plant a tree. Ben Affleck was at the Sundance Film Festival this week talking about his new documentary Reporter which tells the story of journalist Nicholas Kristof’s journey to The Republic of Congo. Affleck even discussed the fact that celebs do have their little causes but the bigger picture is out their for journalists to report and uncover. I think its cool he throws it out there that people need to pay more attention to the big picture of major issues that are affecting the world, like Darfur and Rwanda. Maybe not all celebs are just picking random charities to promote but honestly care about the major issues? I’m game to find out.
