not i. but i still got a chuckle out of it anyways.



and the original (just in case you don't know what they are spoofing):



and the video that put it back on the charts:

"For the last fucking time: Men cannot have hairdos. Men cannot walk into salons and sit in those big chairs and lean back into a sink while a rich cokehead makes a $200 sculpture on their head. All women know this. That’s why they do this look when you take a picture."

3. i am quite fond of adidas. i wear a lot of their apparel.
2. this cinematography of this advertisment is extraordinary. (side note: yes, that is David Beckham and Russel Simmons).
1. i love love love this song and love love love the fact that adidas is introducing Frankie Valli and the 4 seasons to a new generation. (of course, it had to happen, based upon the success of this commercial a relatively unknown hip-hop group decided to sample it. fortunately, to their credit, they didn't add or take away too much from the original because the song is already flawless.)

i don't know what been going on, but lately www.fmylife.com has been really really good. here are some selected entries i really found funny:


Today, I was talking to this girl who I thought was really nice, we were having an amazing conversation, and as we stared deeply in one another's eyes she asked me "Has anyone ever seen you take a shit?". She then began telling me the story of when someone watched her. FML.

Today, my five year old daughter was watching cartoons on TV. Then a Barbie commercial came on. My daughter sang along with the theme song "Be who you want to be, B-A-R-B-I-E." She then turned to me and said "Mom, I want to be a hooker." FML

Today, it's been a few days since I decided to give this girl I like the silent treatment.I've been writing on/off with her for a few weeks, but decided to stop a bit, to seem mysterious. When I logged on Facebook today, her status was "..is so happy that annoying guy has stopped writing to me!" FML.

Today, I got marinara sauce on my new white shirt. I went in my desk for my Tide-To-Go pen and started using it on the spot. Turns out orange highlighters look a lot like Tide-To-Go pens when you don't look closely enough. FML.

Today, it's my birthday and I received a signed vintage Beatles' album from my wife. Awesome right? It's the same album some jerk way over-bidded me for on eBay. That jerk was my wife, using my credit card. FML.

Today, I finally had sex with a girl I've been dating for over a month. Before we got started she told me not to worry about the birth control because she could handle that. So after we finished I asked her what kind of birth control she used. She said she meditated. FML.

Today, I rushed home to tell my parents my girlfriend had accepted my proposal. They asked how I could be so selfish at a time like this. Apparently, Michael Jackson's death is more important than their son. FML.

Today, I found my long lost diary and curiously read it. What's worse than finding out that your mother read your diary? Finding out that your mother wrote comments in it. FML.

Today, I enlisted for The Navy because my Boy Scout leader encouraged me. He fought in Korea and is a real inspiration. I asked him what motivated him to join The Navy. He said he was drunk and didn't remember joining until he was called up. FML.

Today, was my birthday. After hinting for almost 2 months for a Wii, my dad pulls out a shiny new Wii Package. The only problem? The box didn't have a Wii in it. My dad gave me a Wii box with my VCR inside and a note saying "This is life. Once you think you're happy, someone crushes it". FML.

Today, while on the road I saw a turtle in the middle of the other lane. I slammed on my brakes and got out, holding up and pissing off several drivers on both sides of the highway. Getting closer to the turtle, I realized that it was not a turtle at all, but a very large pile of dog shit. FML

Ottawa teenager dies of swine flu in CHEO hospital this afternoon. Teenager had chronic health problems (CF? asthma? etc... ?): http://www.ottawacitizen.com/Health/Ottawa+teen+dies+with+swine/1725180/story.html
 
My dad called and advised me to avoid large crowds of people for a while. I promptly cancelled my movie outing with my friend Danielle for the evening. 

The swine flu is still spreading. There have been more than 2,650 confirmed cases of swine flu in Ontario – and more than 5,700 across Canada – but most are considered mild with symptoms very similar to an annual seasonal flu. 

 This shit is fast acting: http://www.thestar.com/news/canada/article/655062

Just because it is not making news headlines does not mean it is no longer a threat. No, i'm not being overly paranoid - just cautious.

i went to Hull today to get my winter tires removed and have my all-seasons put back on. Quebec just passed a law this year that all Quebec drivers must have winter tires installed during the winter season due to harsh road conditions (punishable by a fine). the problem with winter tires is that they are only good for the cold weather and if you use them when it gets warm the tire starts to deteriorate (4 new winter tires cost about $800). so as you can imagine, that results in about 100,000 people trying to quickly get their tires changed between the last weeks of April. i ended up going to a really far and obscure tire garage in the deepest parts of Hull to get my tires changed. this whole 'winter tire' law is pretty shitty but that's not what i'm griping about. i'm just setting you up.

there is a long stretch of highway between Aylmer (where i live) and Hull and there are several intersections and some fucking genius urban-planner decided that instead of putting traffic lights they should put roundabouts. a 'roundabout' is a great idea in theory. in theory. a roundabout (typically found in the UK or Europe) looks like this:



a roundabout works when there is only a few cars at a time, but during rush hour traffic i have never seen so many near-miss collissions in my life in such a short span of time. unlike traffic lights (communism), or a 4-way stop (democracy) a roundabout is just pure anarchy. only the biggest and bravest and boldest dare enter the circle. a roundabout only works when other drivers are equally respectful and courteous, not "hey, i'm driving a pick-up truck, i'm just gonna go barrelling through". thankfully i didn't get into an alterations, but if i owned a house near that roundabout, i'd be sure to be sitting in my front lawn on my lawn chair between 3:00pm - 5:00pm every weekday just to see the action -better than TNT (the television network station).

today was day 4 of tests. it wasn`t so bad. juts inhale some gas and sit inside a machine and take some lung xrays. next, insert something into my veins and xray the blood going through my body. no big deal.

on monday i have to meet with the surgeon who will be doing my transplant. my fake fiance will be expected to be there. problem: my fake fiance doesn`t want to go anymore. she has an important group presentation at the exact same time as the meeting with my surgeon. the group presentation is worth 30% of her grade. talk to the professor and have it deferred? not an option. she claims i am selfish for somehow thinking that me passing the criteria for getting a transplant is more important then her passing the class. i am really fucked right now. there is no way in hell i am going to tell the sugreon my fiance missed out on a meeting with him for a school project.

the problem is that Quebec wants you to have a life mate/be in a long term relationship in order for a tranplant. why? i guess to prove that you have a support system. it's a really stupid rule. so what, no ugly people who are bad with relationships deserve a transplant?

i am most upset with my ex-gf, Cindy O. i feel like she really shafted me considering i told her about this weeks ago. she asked me to tell her the dates she would be needed and i did. now she suddenly remembers she has an exam on that day. fuck. i am really really upset right now. apparently i am the selfish one in all of this.

if the tables were turned, i'd be there for her in a second. one time she fucked up her knee while walking around downtown and i skipped out on my job early (told them i had to go to pharmacy) just to pick her up and drive her home. other times when we were dating she'd call on me to pick her up at parties and stuff and would throw massive guilt trips if i didn't show up. she's also asked me to support her at concerts and etc and i'd always be there (except for that one time on St Jean Baptiste day when i had too many Tylenol 3s). someday she's going to need me again but i won't be there. because i'll be dead. because she never showed up for that motherfucking surgeon's appointment to screen me in for a transplant. fuck.

*update* now she's threatening to call the hospital and tell them she was lying all along. yep, my ex-gf, she's a real class act.
