I wish I was bat shit crazy, and what the hell is “good coffee” anyway?

So, last night, instead of sleeping,  I watched an entire season of the United States of Tara. I mean, who really needs to sleep, sleep is for suckas!

Moving on, this show, this completely dysfunctional family unit, and the shit they go through together, and apart, sucks me in so completely, it really does make me wish I could be more crazy than I currently am.

I mean, Tara has DID, which is Dissociative identity disorder, split personality’s in layman’s, and the rest of the family are all kind of dysfunctionally functional, all their shit is just out there, no sickly sweet sugar-coating, and about 85% of the time there are no lies or secrets between them and THEY ALL STILL LOVE EACH OTHER. I just find that surreal, and that’s how I know this show is a work of fiction… that shit just does not happen in real life. If I shared that much of myself, I would freak the fuck out of all my friends and family, and I am cynically sure that that’s true for most of the human race, at least the ones who aren’t medicated (legally or otherwise)

I think the real kicker for me, is that it all looks so cathartic and liberating on the screen, and I wish RL could be like that, instead of the messy angry screamy crying mess it usually is when someone hurts someone else’s precious feelings.

At the risk of sounding even more jaded, whiney and stupid than I already have in the rest of this post, feelings are overrated, 9 times out of 10, the only person who actually cares about your feelings is you, and think about it, how often have you actually done something because you cared about someone’s feelings, and not just to make your life easier?

OKAY… I’m ranting and on a downer.

Next RANT topic. What the fuck is “good” coffee? I have no freaking idea! I hear people (including myself) whining about no one knowing how to make a good coffee, and this coffee is milky, and this one is bitter, someone burnt the beans etc etc and so forth. BUT I have NEVER had someone, one of these marvellous coffee experts, actually hand me a cup and say, “here, this is a good coffee, this is what a good coffee should look, smell and taste like, enjoy it, as it is as rare as unicorn blood” NOOOO, I have never witnessed the drinking of a GOOD cup of joe! I’ve seen not bad, drinkable, and I thought I had experienced good, until some snob told me otherwise. “It may be the best coffee around here, but that doesn’t make it good” alright smarty, WHAT DOES???? GAHHHHHHHHHH mystery of life, I will never know.

AND just to TOP OFF MY NIGHT, I just found out that Tara has been CANCELLED! Fuck you Showtime, what does a show have to do to survive these days??? All my favourite shows keep getting axed, and it’s not fair, there are so many channels these days, there should be room to keep these shows going instead of making me sit through re-runs of re-runs!

For fuck sake, I’m pretty sure they’r still re-running Sex and the City! The first season!

Hows this for an idea douche bags, GET SOME NEW MATERIAL!

And I want a Magic Bullet, those things are freakin awesome, Salsa, Dip, Cocktails, it’s like a little party machine.

That is all.

 

Peace, love and hunnicakes.
