Peeviosity

There is no rhyme or reason as to why I woke up with this thought but I kept thinking about this one thing that is a massive pet peeve of mine. I then began to think of another peeve of mine that is self-induced. Please bear with me folks but I really need to get these items of peeviosity off of my chest.

A couple of days ago I was watching a news report on one of the cable news networks and it annoyed me so I flipped stations and came across a commercial and it annoyed it me as well, and for the same reason. What does a news report and a commercial have in common as far as my annoyance? In both instances a person was talking and the mouth of the person didn’t match up with the audio.

Sure, when watching a Japanese Sci-Fi movie translated into English it is acceptable and even humorous when the words don’t correlate to the mouth movements of the actors, but when something is recorded in English without translation needed and the words are mis-matched, it is to me, annoying as Hell!!

Listen to me now and hear me later, this upsets me so damn much that if CNN had footage of Christ riding into Jerusalem on a donkey and his words were out of synch with the audio, I would say “Fuck the Lord”, grab the remote and flip to The Food Network, even if it was an episode of Rachel Ray making a ginormous sammy that was Yum-Oh!! Unless of course Betty Nguyen was the anchor of the segment, because then I would just turn down the sound and drool. But you get my point.

The other peeve of mine that came across my gray matter today is something that I afflict upon myself. I am a procrastinator, and I hate it. Case in point, I have been tagged by Marilyn, Songbird, and Jamie to complete some memes. I plan to do the memes but I just haven’t gotten around to it. They are loyal readers and good friends so why would I not do them? Because I am innately lazy and procrastanatorial (yes, that’s the second new word I have made up today).

I am glad that I am not a woman. If I was a woman I would be freaking my boyfriend out each month because I would undoubtedly be late!! My period would be every 45 days. Of course, if I was a woman I would probably be a lesbian, because men are not pretty. I know that because I just caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror before getting in the shower, and it was disgusting. But I digress.

Lastly, something that peeved me off was a comment I received from a friend of mine. He said that my blog was okay but lacked “meaning and a statement.” I said that it is called humor and why don’t you try Googling the meaning if you’re not sure about it. Jeeeez, people are soooo difficult.

Anyway, I feel better that I have been able to get this off of my chest. Thank you for bearing with me and delight in the fact that I have figured out how to make videos on my camera. Just think, my site may soon go three dimensional…I just hope that the audio is in synch with the video.

Cheers!!
