Shut Up and Say Yer Sorry!

Effective Ways of Saying You’re Sorry

  1. I’m feeling defensive.  When I feel defensive, sometimes I say things I don’t mean.
  2. I’m not talking to you like you are someone I love.  Let me start over because I do love you.
  3. I know I’m sounding angry, but I’m feeling extremely threatened.  Let me take a couple breaths and try again.
  4. I know you’re feeling harassed. Please bear with me, I will do better for you.
  5. I’m afraid if I say I’m sorry, you’ll make everything my fault.
  6. I’m sorry. I think I was using a tone of voice I did not mean.
  7. I overreacted earlier.  We should try that conversation again.
  8. I guess I haven’t been listening very well.  Please give me another chance.
  9. Please forgive me?
  10. I know I’ve hurt you.  What can I do to help us get happy again?
  11. I’ve said some mean things.  Can I take them back?
  12. I’m making it sound like it was your entire fault.  I know that’s not true.
  13. I know I sound mad now.  I’m sorry and I haven’t stopped loving you.
  14. I love you, I hate fighting, and I’m sorry for my part in this one!
  15. I feel lousy about what just happened. Can we just make up?

East Passyunk Avenue in a Travel mag? Think They Forgot One Important Part!

Somehow, E. Passyunk Ave got a glowing write up in some stupid travel magazine because they are rededicating the stupid “singing” fountain (“singing” because it has speakers playing sirius radio mounted around it).  I believe the article left out one important part that I have personally experienced living in this neighborhood.  I left a comment on the article to that affect.  It reads as follows:

Just don’t let the older native Italian crack head and meat head bigots find out you are gay, black or Latino or they’ll beat the crap out of you on the street while the police look away. And beware the unemployed pharmaceutical junkies on xanax and percosets. They have no idea what they are doing and they may suddenly start screaming profanities at the sky or a telephone pole or anything that moves. There’s a TON of unemployed pill popping junkies in this neighborhood walking around like empty headed zombies.

I dont know who is worse, these guys or the God Hates Fags people.

 

The Consumerist Does it Again!

Once again, The consumerist website has some interesting posts.

An interesting one I liked:  This one is for all the South Philly idiots that take their computers to geek squad!

And NOW, you too can have a smelly data dildo…. Now scented for his/her pleasure.  I wonder if you can get a USB data drive that has bad movies on it that smells like shit?

Stink!
PEE YEW! YOUR DATA STINKS!

I Think Trey Parker and Matt Stone from South Park Lived in South Philly at One Time!

First the Portsmouth Sinfonia and NOW I’m Hooked on The Shaggs!

You all may know of my love of the Portsmouth Sinfonia.  They were an orchestral band of trained musicians who were required to play on instruments they didn’t know how to play. (It is rumored that one member of the Portsmouth Sinfonia was actually disciplined for attempting to practice!) I was drawn into this by one of it’s members, Mr. Brian Eno. Here’s a head bangin’ sample of the Portsmouth Sinfonia!

But NOW we have this band called The Shaggs.

The Shaggs Can't Play for Shit!

Thanks to Huffington Post for posting this, so I don’t have to describe it. Read the article, listen to the music/video’s. (If it’s good enough for Frank Zappa it’s DEFINITELY worth a listen – even if only for a giggle). Apparently there’s a live musical, play, bit, thing about this. I’d love to see it. Once again, I’m stepping into the world of theater appreciation.
