Wait, What?...

There are many many things in life that confuse me. I could probably write for hours about all the things that I don't understand in life... but I think for now, I'll stick with the top 10. And in no particular order, they are:

1. "Some nights, I wish that my lips could build a castle, some nights, I wish they'd just fall off."  - Lyrics from Fun's Some Nights. What on Earth is he trying to say? Why would you want your lips to build a castle? How would you even think that that could be possible? And why, oh why, would you wish for your lips to fall off? I don't understand. 
2. Water Polo. I watched the women's competition for this year's Olympics and I still have no idea why the referee kept blowing that whistle, and why none of the girls seemed to stop what they were doing when he did. I thought whistle blowing meant that you had to stop because you did something wrong... but they just kept going! 
3. Switching from TV to DVD (and vice versa) on someone else's television. Why don't they just save everyone the trouble and make all TVs the same? It should be a simple equation of a button or two... and it should be the same button or two on every single system! 
4. Why more than one guy has sent me a picture of his genitalia. Why would you do that? Here's the thing all guys need to know: It's not an attractive piece of anatomy. Period. Do not send a girl a photo of it.. especially a girl that you're not currently being intimate with... and ask her opinion. Gross. 
5. Jersey Shore. There's a song by YouTube star NicePeter that has the line: "I'm so tired of terrible people being admired for being terrible people." That pretty well sums up Jersey Shore for me. It has an entire cast of people who should not be on television. Except maybe on Cops. 
6. Celebrities who shoplift. People like Winona Ryder, Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears and Farrah Fawcett have all been accused of shoplifting at some point. I don't understand. They have enough money to buy out the entire store... and yet they steal? 
7. The Great Gatsby. The novel by F. Scott Fitzgerald has got to be, in my opinion, the most terrible, slow-moving, boring book ever, and yet it's considered one of the great classics. I don't get it. 
8. Fast Food. We all know how bad it is for us, and yet we continue to eat it. What is wrong with us?
9. Not being an animal person. How heartless can you be? They're so sweet and cute. I don't see how anyone could look at a picture of a little koala bear or baby penguin or something and not melt! 
10. Job experience. You can't get the experience without getting the job, but you can't get the job without having experience. You can't win! 

 That's all folks, thanks for stopping by!
