The problem with journeying to the centre of the earth would be the lack of quality restaurants.
Cure cover band.
Ok, even though I'm bitter and jaded, I have to admit that there are some Canadian bands that don't suck (funny how most of them don't come from Vancouver). Once again, in no particular order: Sons of Freedom (even though they're not really together anymore); Sum 41; Big Wreck (partly); Finger Eleven; The Tragically Hip; Great Big Sea; Spirit of the West; Voivod (mostly); Gob; Treble Charger; Age of Electric; the Killjoys; Rush, even though I'm not crazy about Geddy's voice; The Watchmen. And so on. You get the idea.
Here, in no particular order are some Canadian - and mostly, Vancouver - bands that suck. Nickelback because they're boring and that Chad guy's voice is irritating and his lyrics suck; Theory of a Deadman, because even their name sucks, and they're just another cookie cutter rock act and the singer looks like a Village People reject (he's the biker); Default (see Theory of a Deadman - augh I puke); Econoline Crush because I knew the guy who originally formed the band and they stole the name from him and their music just irritates me; 5440 because they haven't changed in the last 15 years and that Neil guy's voice is so monotone it's not even funny and they ripped off Molly's Lips; Moist causes me physical pain - that guy whines and calls it singing; Avril - she's not really a band but I hear she's a little bitch and they have to use a pitch shifter to fix her voice in the studio; Sloan because they can't pick a sound and stick to it and they over-produced their first album and ruined Underwhelmed; Simple Plan are unoriginal and the guy's voice hurts my ears. I'm sure there are more but this is getting embarrassing. Even though I can't stand Matthew Good I can still respect his talent. Bryan Adams also totally sucks. Ok, on to the bands that don't suck!
Every time I hear that old cocksucker talking about Quizno's on the radio I have to turn the station. He's always yelling! And that ad with the woman talking about some Italian sub is the fucking worst! She's talking to him trying to sound all sexy and he says, "you got that right, darlin!". I was driving so I couldn't turn the station but I said out-loud, "yeah - you probably can't even get it up anymore ya old fruit!". He also calls "sandwiches" "samiches". Why won't someone put the old bastard out of his misery - and everyone else's? Doesn't Quizno's realize he's making me not want to eat there??
What's the point in making up your own spam email headers from combined messages when you have crap like this coming to you? "Increase the Length of your Penis chambermaid" and "Increase your penis size Now alleyway". If you ask me, chambermaid and alleyway probably aren't concerned with their penis sizes. Apparently, someone's got a really shitty random word generator adding words to their subject lines in an attempt to make it past my spam filter. Well it's not working! Get a real job you asshole!
"Increase your penis size Now dutchess." I read somewhere that spammers mix other words in with their subject lines in an attempt to throw off spam filters. This time with hilarious results. It's not often a spam email makes me laugh.
I have way too many Gilligan's Island dreams. The one I had last night was kind of like a lost episode, although it was a bit of a rip-off of the episode where the radioactive seeds washed up on the island. Anyway, for some reason the Professor had super strength and super vision and he had either a baseball or a rock or a coconut (who can tell in a dream?) and he threw it. And as he threw it he was telling Gilligan that he was aiming for Gilligan's car in the parking lot where the three hour tour originated. Because he could both see Gilligan's car from the island and throw far enough to hit it. And I was thinking in my dream - because I often have a narrative running at the same time when I dream - that if he could see the parking lot then they must be able to get rescued because, well that's when my dream logic fell apart. But I remember that they'd only been on the island for a week when this episode took place. And thinking they must be reasonably close to Hawaii. Made sense when I was asleep...
