What are some things that you don't "get" that everyone else seems to?

Coffee - expensive, tastes like ****

Texting - unless you're sending me info and I don't have a pen call me!

Facebook/Myspace - If you're over 18 and have an account you're a loser

Clubbing/Bar Hopping - fights, DWIs, expensive

Beer - heavy in calories, kills your braincells and tastes like ****

Smoking - heavy in carcinogens, expensive, stinks

Tea Party - never underestimate the power of ignorant people in large numbers

Limbaugh/Palin/Beck/Reagan

Expensive rims

Men wearing bling - Wasn't this always considered gay? When did it become cool for men to wear gold and diamonds ala rap music videos?

White guys with tattoos that say Thug Life and or Cash Money

Men who wear sneakers for style and not athletics

 

Really- it's almost like stalking. Hey, hjg877: Zack Sinclair called, he wants more tips on obsessive-compulsive behavior!

Here's what I don't get- the fanaticism over the "in" Christmas toys. I know, I know, they're kids- but I'm talking about the adults who've thrown punches over a Cabbage Patch doll.

 

I dont think anyone else get's these people either

 

Facebook is intended for colleges/universities and for young business people to network. I can understand MySpace being more for younger people though.

 

Havent read any thing beyond this post, so if its been addressed, I apologize...but you're complaining that Houston is spread out and that you want to go to LA? Not only is LA spread out but the traffic is 100x worse, meaning it'll take you 45 min to get anywhere. And LA doesnt lack in pollution either. Terrible reasoning.

 

standard Houston-area hating.

We arent cool and trendy to live in, hey man...great...move on, we honestly wont miss you.

and

Facebook...comes in pretty damn handy for my family to keep my extended family across the nation involved in how I was doing during my risky hospital stay recently. If that makes me a loser. then I shudder to see what description fits you.




BillyD must be rolling in .......ooops sorry AB. at alot of folks lack of understanding of the topic

Seriously guys....list things that alot of other people like and you dont understand why. Let me show you a perfect example.



Lots of folks really care about celebrity's lives...I really honestly could not care less if I tried to.

lots of folks love American Idol\Dance show\Celebrity Dance show. not me...I have not wasted one second of my life on these shows. **










** disclaimer: I did in fact watch S1 AI with my wife, and then only the first auditions the next year to make fun of the obvious idiot plants.

 

I'm assuming his post was sarcastic.

 

Free time. Someone give me some of theirs so I can figure out what it's all about.

 

Word.

What do they want? For us to stop enforcing the law?

 

I can't take you seriously as a Rockets fan if you don't "get" the annoying persona that is Kobe Bryant and the flopping, David Stern- loving douchelords known as the Lakers.


You must have a crush on Sasha.

Folks that can't seem to understand that Rakim is the greatest emcee of all time...

good call there david

I actually used to "get" music awards shows back when it was difficult to get a recording deal, which by default caused the bands to actually have talent....not so much these days. It pretty much died when Jethro Tull (who in generally I like) won an award for a metal song.

Deckard,

ya know I love the Big L, but I just could never get into Seinfeld...I dont know why, they amused me but the people themselves bored me to tears or irritated me.
