Do I really need to know you went to the store and bought a quart of milk? Uhhh---- no. You're number two made me laugh and number three... I think just because the television signal is there doesn't mean ALL of the hours be filled. I can stand to see those colored bars for a few hours. Really. Skinty? LOL.

Fancy cars -- Seriously people you only need a car that has comfortable seats, doesn't break down once a week, has cooling/heating and rolls on 4 wheels from point A to B, there is NO need to PIMP your ride! 2. UNNECESSARY technology-- A robot to vacuum my floors? Nothing beats my housekeeper! Blogging plant? for reals? I wonder what it would say after my dog has peed all over it! 3. Cigarettes-- no suitable for kissing! and really, I rather get a high from a hot steamy make-out session than nicotine. YES PLEASE! 4. Video Games -- For the lazy person like myself, working out is actually enjoyable with the Wii, Although, COMPLETELY unnecessary I must say. I live near the BIGGEST park in my city. Tsk Tsk, but that's not all, what's up with men frying their brains for hours playing "Theft Auto"? SUCH A TURN OFF! What I think is overrated:

That is pure stalkerish and dumb. I loathe twitter. 2)Valentines Day aka Singles Awareness Day. I won't even elaborate. 3)Infomercials- why the 1/2 hours of lies followed by the nanosecond of truth that is always cut off by them running out of time. 4) Super skinty(yes skinty) ppl spending hours at the gym taking up the machines from ppl that need them. I mean really, do you need to have ur -4 behind on the treadmill for 2 hours?? 1)Twitter! That is pure stalkerish and dumb. I loathe twitter.

Good call. I don't own a video game, my Tween-let has one at her Dad's house. I'm with you. I just don't get it. Recreational drugs? It's better just to be present for the moment. Yes. Thanks for chiming in. Hey Elizabeth,

Starbucks, I call it "four-bucks" because that is the average price you pay for a cup of coffee, I mean really! And yes the other coffee shops do support the community and artists. Good call. Yes on FB and holidays... though you're Aunt B has a special place for Valentine's Day. Swine Flu? Aunt B will remind you to wash your hands and keep them away from your face, and say that the news coverage was a bit over the top. Thanks for participating Roland. Roland, yes!

Its a strand of flu. Many more people die each year of the "normal" influenza. Is it bad? yes. Did it deserve nearly 24/7 coverage on tv for a week? No. 2) Facebook - I don't want to see another person pimping their facebook/twitter account on TV. 3) Holidays (since this is memorial day) - While I think it is nice to have a day dedicated to the men and women who served our country. My problem with holidays is that we use that day to remember the veterans. Also, valentines day--you should show your love to the ones you love whenever you can; the list goes on and on. 4) Starbucks - Are we so lazy that we really need drive up windows to get our coffee? Go support local companies and go to the smaller coffee shops. Many of them provide free wifi (unlike starbucks). They also are a good outlet for local artists and support great causes. 1) Swine Flu – As seth and amy would say: Really? Its a strand of flu.

– Video Games
– Money (although is needed to buy goods to live, it doesn’t create happiness)
– Recreational Drugs (you miss out on the good things in life when you are in an altered state of consciousness)
– Fireplace in the bedroom (it is not fun having to get out of your bed every 20 minutes to rearrange the logs in the fire, plus afterward, your bedroom smells like smoke and ashes)
