Happy Turkey Day, Mockdockers!

Consider this your friendly reminder to lay off the candied yams.

You know what? This is my favorite favorite holiday.  Especially because everyone in my family knows better than to expect me to cook anything, which means that this holiday involves me getting fed by an awesome cook (whether it’s my own mom or mom-in-law), and sitting around with people I love just feeling thankful.  Seriously -what is better than that?

Hope you all are enjoying this day and remembering how much we all have to be thankful for.

Happy Thanksgiving Eve!

I tried to come up with a really good festive pre-thanksgiving photo, but kept coming back to this one.  I’m sure you’ll agree that nothing really screams turkey dinner like a coupla douchebags in g-strings.

You Can’t Fool Me, Britney.

I can’t help it, you guys. I am so totally psyched to watch this. It’s a sickness.

And here’s the thing. I watched this preview, and I get that she’s trying to come across as this total prisoner of her own life, and that she now has to be sheltered and it’s hard and blah blah blah woe is her. But I just don’t buy it. If she hadn’t acted like a complete moron, starting with getting married to her high school buddy in Vegas to the present day, she would NOT get this sort of obsessive attention from the paparazzi that she has to deal with. If she acted like, say, Reese Witherspoon or Kate Winslet, she would get to lead a relatively normal life. But even now, as she’s supposedly getting her crap together and making a comeback, it’s in the form of a documentary and as much publicity as she can possibly arrange.

So as much as I can’t wait to see this, I am annoyed by her attempt to gain sympathy. This is a totally calculated move. I am watching it purely out of morbid curiousity and to see if there is anything for me to mock.

Also, it looks like it might make for a good drinking game. How many times will Britney say, “you know” in the hour long documentary? Anyone want to make bets now?

Has This Ever Happened To You?

So I was just reading about this woman (not the pictured one, some other lady) who got so drunk off of some wine before a football game in MN that she UNKNOWINGLY walked into the men’s room, and then into a stall, and proceeded to have sex with some random stranger there, while several other people laughed and cheered them on.  And she didn’t stop there.  Police busted into the stall to break them up, and she became totally uncooperative and mad at them.

She has absolutely no recollection of this incident.

She’s also apparently married to a either the most forgiving man on the planet, or a total doormat, because her husband is BLAMING HIMSELF for not accompanying her to the bathroom, and being totally supportive of her after this incident.  Can you even believe that?

I don’t care how drunk I got – if I was found having sex with a random stranger in a men’s bathroom at a football game, I’m pretty certain that Mr. Mock would put himself LAST on the blame list.  Even if he didn’t accompany me to the bathroom.

I want to hear your most embarrassing drunken tales.  GO!

This Is Deceptive.

You know what I think?  I think Tim Burton and Helena Bonham Carter take, like, 2 solid hours to get ready to go anywhere, and that this “look” that they’re going for - the exploded Salvation Army store look – is just their way to be nonconformist. I don’t buy that they just threw this stuff on, haphazardly, right when they woke up.

But either way, this is hideous.  Clearly, Tim and Helena are a match made in fashion hell.

Look! Britney Is Dancing!

You know what I just did? I just watched this video without sound, because as you might recall, my stupid laptop has no sound. And I can’t speak for how good or not good it is WITH sound, but I CAN tell you that watching Britney Spears dance in place for a few minutes without sound is actually kinda funny.

I need the kind of job where my day incorporates going to Starbucks, and then putting on a flashy leotard and getting my hair and make-up done and then dancing in place while people take pictures of me. That seems like a pretty sweet gig, if you ask me.

SuperAmy Continues To Astound The World With Her SuperHuman Existing Powers.

Amy Winehouse was apparently hospitalized last night after a drug-induced seizure.  I am in AWE of how she continues to live.

Interestingly, Bunny and I have, on our calendars for Friday at 9.30am, an appointment which reads:  “Check on the living status of Amy Winehouse.”  We set this appointment a year ago, thinking that there was NO WAY she’d make it for an entire year.  And look at her go!  She’s a total superhero.  It’s going to take a lot more than just a measly drug-induced seizure to stop Amy Winehouse.

Question.

So, I just read that some woman in the UK flushed her newborn baby down the toilet because she didn’t realize she was giving birth, and it wasn’t until she saw a FOOT IN THE TOILET BOWL, that she realized what had happened.

Unfortunately, this doesn’t have a happy ending.  When she couldn’t revive the baby, she just put it in the trunk of her car.  There’s all kinds of investigating that’s being done, natch. 

You know what this woman thought was happening?  She thought she was having herself a big ole bout of diarrhea.

So here’s my question.  HOW OBLIVIOUS OF A PERSON do you have to be, to go through nine months of pregnancy and actually GIVE BIRTH OUT OF YOUR VAGINA, to not realize you’re having a kid?  I just don’t get it.  I mean, I know this chick isn’t the first.  So, is it a weight thing?  Does this happen only to landbeasts?

Huh.

Apparently, Taylor Swift is quite tall.  I did not know this.

Look.  I’ll be honest with you guys.  I’m way too lame to stay up past 10pm on a school night.  This is what my life has come to.  I’m also too lame to remember, until, say, 45 minutes into it, that the AMA’s were even ON last night.  So I happened to catch a total of 2.5 performances – and they included 1/2 a performance of Pink, and full performances of Taylor Swift and Miley Cyrus.  Here are my observations.

1.  Pink needs to stop dressing like a woman.  It simply doesn’t work for her.  She needs to just embrace her manliness and dress like a biker.
2.  Taylor Swift, who I’ve heard is quite talented and seems like a lovely young lady, bored the crap out of me. That was a total high school show choir/talent show performance.
3.  Miley Cyrus, as much as she annoys me, is a born performer.  That girl just knows how to work a stage.  I kind of hate myself for typing that, but it’s true. 

Thoughts?

Anyway, I know I’ve got a ton of youtube performances to catch up on, but seeing as how I have no sound on this laptop, that’ll have to wait till I’m actually in GA.  Stay tuned.

No.

I do not like it.

You know what this looks like?  This looks like Rihanna realized, like 10 minutes before the AMA’s, that she was supposed to be at the AMA’s, and that she had nothing to wear, and the only thing open was a fabric store, and so she ran in and just grabbed a few yards of fabric off of the scraps floor, and safety pinned it in a few places. 

I do not like it.
