My Favorite T-Shirt Designs....with commentary.

Oregon Trail was the greatest game ever. Isn't it kind of weird how we are now at the point where most kids probably don't even get this shirt? Makes me feel old. What's weird is that while it will forever be one of the greatest games ever, if you tried to tell one of today's futuristic kids about it, it would sound like the most ridiculously boring game ever by comparison. You'd have to spice it up a little.

"Yea, so basically you play the role of a colonial settler....who...um...has just been sent on a top secret mission, code name "Manifest Destiny."

I feel like this time, the older generation is completely out of the loop. I could be wrong, but MILF is a fairly new phrase or at least a newly popularized one. Most of our parents don't really know it, which is a good thing since the phrase was created to discreetly speak about THEM specifically. I think the first time I heard it was in American Pie which was what...8 years ago?!

Anyways, this is hilarious. Can't say I've ever used the phrase myself, but if I had to think of a SILF......definitely Tuna Melt. On sour dough. GROSS!!!!!



Ok so this shirt is funny and all, but there's actually something upsetting about this picture. Obviously, the shirt only makes sense if a jew is wearing it. I understand that. But why did they have to pick the nerdiest, JEWiest looking kid to wear it. I mean, the only thing more offensive would have been a bearded Hassid wearing the shirt with a tahlis draped over his shoulders. I can honestly say as a jew that if I saw this kid walking down the street (wearing this shirt), I would probably commit a hate crime against him.

SOME OTHER FUNNY ONES

A Slow Death

I think I'm starting to get sick. I went to this site http://symptoms.webmd.com/symptomchecker where you enter in your symptoms and it will tell you what you have. Apparently its a program created by various doctors and medical technicians. In other words, the program is pretty accurate.

I entered in all of my symptoms:

Sore Throat

Headache

Stiff neck

Sore Eyes

Fever

According to the site, I am suffering from one of the following diseases:

Spinal Meningitis
Aseptic Menengitis
Chronic Sinusitis
Astigmatism (What?)
Multiple Sclerosis
Shingles
or Cervical Cancer


By the time you read thsi blog I may already be dead. But hopefully I will get all of these diseases treated in time before they get any worse.

The Beginning of an Era

I wanted to give a whole "...little 'bout myself" introduction, but I think that it's better to be a little mysterious. Maybe even go by an alias. So for now I'll just keep it simple:

Hi, my name's Taylor. I don't mean to clog up the "blogosphere" with yet another average blog of attempted wit and pretense, but I honestly just wanted to give this thing a try. I don't know if it will be interesting to anyone, and while I feel a bit self conscious about what I'm writing, I hope that maybe over the course of time, the things I have to say will make people wanna hear more, and maybe inspire them to start their own blogs (which I will gladly follow up on especially if I really was the inspiration)......Ok well that was kind of endearing, but a little bland. I may have won over some of the heart throb pre-teens, but I think I need to be a little more edgy if I'm gonna gain the trust of my more hip/contemporary constituency.

So I recently moved out to California and found a really great apartment in LA. Actually, it's sort of on the cusp of Los Angeles and West Hollywood. For those that don't know, Los Angeles is considered a hip center of commerce and pop culture. Where as West Hollywood, more aptly nicknamed "WeHo", is considered by many to be the gay capital of LA - and seemingly sometimes the world. So it seems suiting for me that I would be living on the border of the two areas. Noo. I'm not gay or bi-curious or metrosexual or any other recently popularized sexual fad. I'm just your average Type B personality trying to occasionally prove his manhood (mostly to himself) in anyway he can as long as it doesn't involve sports, building things with my bare hands, lifting heavy metal objects repeatedly, or mass consumption of beer.

Anyways, this is me. And the entries to follow are simply my thoughts and updates on the world as I see it. So I'll see ya around.
