But Seriously, Folks...

Things that are popular always intrigue me. Or, I should say, WHY they are popular always intrigues me. Often I’m left wondering why.

Take the nightgowns that hip teenage GUYS wear outside. Shirts that are big enough that people will remark to their wives while driving that the end of the world is upon us because a billboard has sprouted feet and began walking. Shirts big enough that there have been waivers that need to be signed before buying them because 15% of people who buy them walk against the wind and actually get scooped up by their shirt (effectively it should now be called a “sail”) and whisked away to god knows where.

Pants around the knees confuse me too.

And leaving the labels and tags on ball caps.

Thugs wearing Nascar jackets. Is this supposed to be ironic? Or are these people really racing fans?

Women are an even more confusing species. Half jackets? Saying written across your butt but you don’t like guys looking? Ug boots and shorts?

Man, I must be getting old.

Grey’s Anatomy is NOT a good show and yet it’s popular! Same with Desperate Housewives. Why on earth are people watching these shows?

And finally, which is more popular, Snickers or Milky Ways? I know what you’re thinking. You’re thinking Snickers.

You’re right. The one thing that’s popular and makes sense in the whole freaking world. Someone left a bag full of Snickers AND Milky Ways and it was a half and half mix and all the Snickers are gone now.

So that’s one thing so far that is popular and makes sense.
