Mixed Bizness


Have you ever thought that you didn't like something and actually convinced yourself not to like it only to be proved wrong?

Case in point: I once said that I did not like Beck (I actually recall using the word hate at one point).....so far today I have listened to three Beck albums (it's only 10:23am).

How and why did I convince myself to believe this? I am very thrown by this revelation. Should I start trying other things I am convinced I don't like?

Here are some other things I am convinced I do not like (which I now feel like I should rethink).

1. Gorillaz...as we all know they are "on notice" and I am almost ashamed to admit that I purchased two of their songs on iTunes last week. Damn you iTunes.

2. American Idol...should this be reconsidered? I enjoy watching the performances but want to have my entrails cut out and burned to keep from having to listen to Paula and her inability to form a solid opinion. And don't get me started on Randy and his stupid "dog pound". Man that was rough, sorry.

Side note: Beck just managed to "rhyme" Old Navy and lady...how did I live without this?

Ok, so those are the only two things I can think of at this moment to reconsider, but I'm sure more will come.

May everyone have a self-revelation today as deep and meaningful as mine.

Peace.

Kristi, this is possibly the best news you could ever give me! I am so glad that you have discovered the genius that is Beck. I have to thank Jake for introducing us and I've been hooked ever since.

A sampling of my play count on iTunes:
"Girl"..........................22
"Que Onda Guero"......29
"New Pollution"...........21
"Jackass".....................32
"Round the Bend"........27
"Lonesome Tears"........63

Okay so I listen to this guy A LOT. In fact, you have inspired me. Today will a complete Beck shuffle day.

Yes these need to be re-evaluated... We would get to see you TUESDAY WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY because American Idol owns all tv. I could throw that down. I gotta say Cans von Bosomstein, you made me almost pee my pants with that comment. I couldn't have thought of anything better than that..You are truly a comedian. (This is truly a spoon). And Oh, I think we all have these lists...Mine would be
1. Napoleon Dynamite
2. Sushi

Although, I really really actually legitimately hate sushi,but for the sake of listing, I needed more than one item. Dude, this comment is like a blog within a blog so I'm gonna go drink out of my B-CUP (44 oz) , LATA SUCKA
