Are People from Boston Retaaaaaaded?
This post will offend some, but it is designed to be playful satire and I don’t exactly mean what I am about to write. Now:
How the hell do you mistake an LED neon sign for a bomb? This is absolutely insane. It’s a light you morons. I can’t even write any more about this because it’s such a simple concept. Take a look at the picture for yourself:
P.S – Massachusetts people, heh gotta love ’em… Not only do the Red Sox suck, they cannot speak English. Honestly, it’s “chocolate syrup” not “chocolate sauce” Room, not rum. Beer Pong, not Beruit.
Fake Virus Stupidity
I am sick and tired of deleting fake, annoying email rumors that stupid ignorant people blindly forward to others. Some moron with a big imagination writes some dumb email that makes no sense at all if read carefully. Other morons believe and chain-forward it to everyone. Save yourself some time – don’t forward me your crap. Also save me time from deleting it, getting enraged, raising my blood pressure and
FWD: ALERT
PLEASE FORWARD THIS WARNING AMONG ALL YOUR CONTACTS:
Be alert during the next few days: Don’t open any message with an attached file called “Invitation”, regardless of who sent it. It’s a virus that opens an Olympic Torch that “burns” the whole hard disk of your computer. This virus will come from someone who has your e-mail address; that’s why you should send this e-mail to all your contacts. It’s better to receive this message 25 times than to receive the virus
DON’T open it and shut down your computer immediately … This is the worst virus announced by CNN, it’s been classified by Microsoft as the most destructive virus ever. The virus was discovered by McAfee yesterday, and there’s no repair yet for this particular virus. It simply destroys the Zero Sector of the Hard Disk, where vital information is kept.
Also:- Emails with pictures of Osama Bin-Laden hanged are being sent and the moment you open these emails your computer will crash and you will not be able to fix it! This e-mail is being distributed through countries around the globe. Don’t be inconsiderate; send this warning to whomever you know. If you get an email along the lines of “Osama Bin Laden Captured” or “Osama Hanged” don’t open the attachment.
SEND THIS E-MAIL TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW”
1) CNN doesn’t know anything about any virus
2) Does it literally “burn” your disk? What does it do, set it on fire or something?
3) Microsoft doesn’t classify viruses
4) it wasn’t discovered by McAffee yesterday because I have been getting this email for 3 weeks, and it’s been around since 2001.
5) “It’s better to receive this message 25 times than to receive the virus” No it’s better to shut the f*** up and stop spamming my inbox.
6) “Don’t open it and shut down your computer immediately” Oh no! I got an email. Looks like i have to turn my computer off now. because even if i didn’t open it, the email told me to shut down my computer. Go kill yourself.
7) What the hell is sector Zero? I’d say it’s…… Nothing! It’s made up bullshit.
8) “the moment you open these emails your computer will crash and you will not be able to fix it!” Simply opening an email will not suddenly crash your computer. An email is a text or html rendered message. If you download an attachment and run it, you could get a virus, but by opening an email, nothing will happen.
9) Anyone who believes this needs to have their computer smashed over their ignorant skull.
10) I’m even more disturbed that the Chief engineer for some company sent this out to all employees. Chief engineer of “spread fake nonsense around”
11) The message itself is a “social” virus, because it is spreading by ignorant people.
EDIT: I tagged this post as malware, because it represents a human social stupidity virus. It’s bad for me to read and enrages me. So it’s malware.
Please refer back to my other rand on the same thing: http://portfolioso.com/2005/08/31/ignorant-people-2/
I Hate Fox and ESPN Announcers
There is nothing more annoying than trying to watch a baseball game with FOX or ESPN announcers. They are the most biased idiots around, and really get on my nerves. This weekend during the Yankees/ Red Sox games, the two morons on ESPN (Jon Miller and Joe Morgan) would always scream with excitement whenever Boston players hit or scored. However, the times the Yankees did something interesting, they would be nonchalant and just talk as if it were no big deal. “OMG. BASE HIT!! LOOK AT ORTIZ!!! HE’S A YANKEE KILLER” vs “Oh, look at that home run over there by Cano. How nice.” When the Yankees beat Boston 14-5, ESPN picked a Manny Ramirez home run as the play of the game. With all of the crazy Yankee hitting, the most important, best hit ever was Manny. Give me a break.
No I’m not a whining Yankee fan. I just want to hear unbiased announcers for both sides. If you want to yell at a hit, do it for both teams – that’s the point. Even the YES announcers (on a channel dedicated towards the Yankees) are less biased and show some excitement towards the other team.
Big Deal: Aquafina is Tap Water

Many people are aware of the recent news that Pepsi is changing the Aquafina labels to inform the public that it comes from tap water. This is causing outrage.
BIG DEAL! It is bottled water, where do you think it’s coming from, Mars? I like Aquafina because it tastes good and whatever they do to filter it works. The water in my house tastes like chlorine and shit. Therefore, I don’t care if they use tap water or gather it from the most elusive springs, as long as it’s pure, it makes no difference. Mineral water sucks and will give you kidney stones. Chances are, if you take well water or mineral water without processing it, it will still contain impurities and possibly even radon from rocks that are decaying. So if all water is processed and filtered, then what makes the difference? I read somewhere that Fiji water contains trace amounts of arsenic. Nice.
Some people think it is sad that water is actually being marketed and sold. True, but when stupid greedy water companies such as United Water send you cancer causing, shit tasting, swamp-ass sewer water, then filters and bottled water are the way to go. The United States is supposed to be the greatest country in the world, yet my water tastes like shit because it is going through pipes and aquaducts from 1654.
One time I was in Germany and was so dehydrated that I (skeptically at first) drank water out of a sink in a public bathroom. It was so delicious and pure, that I could have bottled it. I didn’t even get sick from it. Try doing that here in the US and you will get infected tonsils, E-Coli poisoning and possibly even AIDS [/sarcasm]. Excuse my vulgarity, I am not in the best mood right now. the water supply here sucks and we need improvement now! Then maybe people will rely less on bottled water.
