No Shit?

Every once in awhile, something comes along and steals our attention away from what we are otherwise focused on.   In most cases, and as of late, we have the world wide web to blame.  Viral videos are all the rage in this age of the Internet.  Recently a video surfaced that was unlike any other we had ever seen, or would have dared to see.  This video was known simply as 2 girls, 1 cup.

Let me take a second to advise you that if you are unaware of the video that I’m speaking of… seek it out only if you care to waste valuable time.  Time that you will never ever get back.  I’ll explain more about the waste of valuable time later.

This video, was so damn disgusting that it became a goal of those who had been sucked in, to gather as many friends as possible and ask them to “just watch”.  “See how long you can last” must have fallen from my mouth over 100 times over the span of a few weeks.  I mean how difficult could it be to stare intently at the monitor for 90 seconds.  But back then, trust me… it took everything you had to get through that 90 seconds.

The phenomenon grew so quickly, that before long, “reaction” videos began cropping up everywhere.  Hell… even Kermit the Frog had a video emerge that gave us a very personal look at what our little green friend finds amusing on the Internet. 

Unfortunately, in the past week, via a radio interview I was informed that the video was a fake.  Joe Rogan, a man who has made a living on things that are gross, spilled the beans… and didn’t give a crap… and as our jaws dropped as we finally heard the truth,  Joe summed it up with a simple, “no shit”.  That’s right… no shit… as a matter of fact, it wasn’t even close to shit, but rather chocolate soft serve.  Some of my friends that day tried to validate their time spent watching the video by visualizing what it actually took to accomplish the feat of 2 girls, 1 cup, all I could think of was… what a waste of my freaking time!  The time I spent watching and asking myself, “why”?  The time I spent recruiting others who I wanted to scar for life, because after all, misery loves company.  The time I spent tracking down even more hilarious “reaction videos”.  And of course now, the time a spent writing this entry.

It’s Friday!!!

The end of the work week is finally upon us, and now that the final 9 to 5 is a work in progress here are reflections from the past week.

On Mondays I always come to work ready to give 100%

Monday- 13%

Tuesday- 22%

Wednesday- 26%

Thursday- 35%

Friday- 4%

It’s only Tuesday, and it’s become very apparent that the office is divided into people who do things and people who take the credit.

I went to work for my new job for $1000 a week. I worked on Monday, and got fired on Wednesday. The guy that hired me was out of town on Tuesday. (Nelson Algren – Novelist)

In any organization there will always be one person who knows what’s going on – this person must be fired!

Everyday I get up and look through the Forbes list of richest people in America. If I’m not on the list, I go to work. (Robert Orben)

So for those of you who continue to check the Forbes list on a daily basis and who continue to look for that one person in your office who knows what’s going on… the following link is for you.

Now with Monday only two short days away, remember that the only reason we ask other people how their weekend went, is so we can tell them about or own. Now go out and make the best of it!

Mayhem achieved, boredom relieved

First let me welcome you to what I hope becomes a one stop shop for the very best and very worst of the deep dark cave known as the World Wide Web. I decided to create this blog because I found myself sharing some of the webs more interesting sites and stories with my friends on a daily basis. Needless to say, this became a BIG waste of my time. Now, I can simply post nightly, and share with you, all which I found to be amusing over the course of the past 24 hours. I encourage you to share your thoughts and inform me of anything I may have missed. Welcome to my blog, our blog, the webs blog… Web Mayhem. May mayhem be achieved and boredom relieved!
