Just Two Things
1.) I read through a 28-page document today that went on and on about professional this and professional that, and dress code this and ethics that, and tardiness this and sick time that, and professional, professional, professional. What I couldn't understand is how there was a typo on every single page of the document. How could all these "professional" people not hit the little "ABC" symbol?
2.) Someone tell me just who goes to see the movie, You Got Served. Tell me. Really. I want to know who would find a "badass dance" movie exciting enough to throw down $7 to see. Economy's not yet recovered, people are careful about their dollars, yet You Got Served is the #1 movie in the country? It's a "badass dance" movie. Think about that. Couldn't they wait for it to hit the video stores?
I'm sitting here, and I'm trying to imagine a conversation in which someone says to a friend, "Let's go see You Got Served. That looks sweet!" But I just can't believe that would happen. I can't believe people would say that, think that, follow through on that. It's "badass dancing". Technically, it's not even possible. It's like a male period, or a married bachelor. But there it is, dominating theaters across the country. This is our culture. You Got Served. Yeah.
