This is some funny shit

You know how I like to talk about self-centered asshole celebrities, who believe in their own hype and think they can go around treating people like garbage and live without any sort of consequences? Because they can and because we keep allowing them to do so, and because we keep buying their shit and seeing their movies? Yeah. Those douchers. Well this song sums it up.

I mean think about a child actor. Who's told they're amazingly talented and unparalleled in beauty at a time in their development when they should be learning about responsibility, general education and other normal social endeavors. Then they stay in the same bubble (with publicists and mom-managers and agents) that pushes them to do more and more so the team and families can profit from the kid as long as possible before the fad passes. Then they grow up, believing they are as untouchable and special as they always have been told they are and become full blown self-entitled adults who don't understand the concept of being told NO. They have moms and dads and great aunts to support so everyone stays on their good side. That's some fucked up shit. In light of my Superbowl today, the OSCARS, here's a lovely song that breaks it down so well why artists can be such fuckers.

Societal Pet Peeve of the Day - Weather Appropriateness

So in Vancouver it rains probably 70% of time. It can be warm and cloudless and sunny and within an hour, the weather can turn to damp shit. If you've resided here more than a week, you know. Wear a jacket and bring a compact umbrella.Everywhere. Even if its sunny. That is the unfortunate trade off for living in our city. It may be pretty but the rain fucking sucks. always. Anyways, I have two HUGE pet peeves when it comes to clothing: dress for your body and wear weather appropriate shit. For the former, I believe that anybody can look good no matter the body type, it's just a case of understanding what fit works best. NOT ALL TRENDS WORK FOR ANYONE (that should be a commandment). I have thick runner thighs (that fact will never escape me) and a short torso and a fat ass. That is my reality. And I deal. I cannot wear high-waisted pants or else I'll look like a stuffed sausage. That is fine. I've accepted it.
Now for the latter...how is that EVERY SINGLE TIME it is properly raining I see someone in fucking flip-flops and shorts. UMM....IT'S FEBRUARY. That is so not okay. Why would you even allow yourself to leave the house with flip flops on, in Vancouver, in February (like one of the dampest, coldest goddamn months of the year). It just...it doesn't make sense. I can expand the idea of retarded footwear to high-heeled open toe shoes which I also often see around campus. It's school. Lot's of walking from one building to the next to the bus loop and back. WHY? And it happens all the time! Like, shocking.
My acute problem with weather dressing is either wearing too much or not wearing enough layers. I also blame the unpredictability of Vancouver for this one. In October especially, when there are residuals of nice weather from the summer... dressing oneself is a total arbitrary guess. I get up and have class early in the morning when it's freezing, and throughout the day it gets warmer (or may piss rain) so who the fuck knows what to wear. Just layer and wear water resistant shoes (not Uggs).

Bottom line - do away with flip flops till summer. It otherwise, will always look wrong, wrong, wrong.
