Foods That Make You Cringe - Issue No. 5

In my 5th issue of 'Foods That Make You Cringe,' you have your choice of two all-time favorites, cupcakes and Starbucks!

Every Thursday I'll be stating the obvious fact; that people make up the craziest shit, hence the reason people tell you, "This Is Why Your Fat."  Yes, I know it's Saturday; I got behind on my regular posts.

Spotted in Chelsea Market, NYC.

White Mocha Sauce, Mocha Frappuccino, Whipped Cream, Carmel & Mocha Sauce, Java Chip Frappuccino, Whipped Cream, Caramel & Mocha Sauce. Garnished with raw sugar and a double chocolate biscotti.

Flashback to the 1990's

Every week I would like to post a music video or song popular in it's own decade.  It will be similar to my "One Hit Wonders back when I ran Peter's Daily Blog.  

Without the focus of an artist who only had one hot track in their career, this weekly series will feature a blend of everyone and everything, from hot artists, to not-so-hot artists, to one-hit wonders, to 10-hit wonders.

I will consider last week's music video flashback of Cazwell's "Ice Cream Truck" as my first issue, and continue this week with my second.

This week's song features a very popular track from 1996; "Magic Carpet Ride" by Mighty Dub Katz.  It was huge success in all the major dance clubs of the time, and instantly became one of my favorite songs.  Yes, I still have the cassette. LOL.

I came out to my family in 1996, and this song truly brings back memories.  Take a listen down below.

Don't Mess With Me!

Has anyone ever told you not to mess with them?  Well this little guy will let you know how he really feels.  He won't put up with your crap.

There is no other animal in the kingdom of all animals, as fearless as the crazyass Honey Badger. Nasty as hell, it eats practically whatever it wants.

Why Save PBS?

Republicans have never been fond of public broadcasting. Republicans have always thought that public broadcasting across the board is liberal, and not particularly supportive of Republican and conservative points of view.  Democrats tend not to think that, unless they're from very conservative districts.  

I grew up watching Sesame Street, Mr. Rogers and NOVA, hell I even watched Austin City Limits which was awarded the National Medal of Arts by President George W. Bush in 2003.  Here's a chart on why we should save PBS and tell me how you feel.

Maria Aragon Sings Born This Way on Ellen

The 10 yr old girl who became an internet sensation overnight, with over 10 million hits on YouTube, appeared on Ellen's show yesterday.

"It’s about just being yourself because God made you who you are and you’re no different than anybody else,” Maria Aragon said. “That’s a good message, isn’t it,” DeGeneres replied.

You can say what you wish about Gaga and her music, but this song has meaning and this little girl has proven it.  Children are the future, and if kids believe in the message that the song sends out, there will be a lot less discrimination and a lot less teen suicide in the world. Lady Gaga herself was brought to tears when she saw this video, tweeting:

“Can’t stop crying watching this. This is why I make music. She is the future.”

MTV's Skins On A Downward Spiral

As I mentioned on Facebook several months ago, you cannot re-boot a show without it's lovely, gay character.  Sure they had their lesbian version of Maxxie, but there is no comparison when it comes to the beautiful young man who was on the British version for two seasons.  Needless to say, the U.S. Version of Skins is meeting its demise rather quickly.  When the show premiered on January 19th, the show garnered 3.2 million viewers.  Last week the show couldn't pull through a million.

All the major advertisers have refused to run commercials, aside from Clearasil and movie trailers.  When have you heard anything about the show?  I happen to agree with Ben Mandleker down below, I haven't seen anyone talking about it on Facebook or Twitter.

“Quite frankly—no one I know watches ‘Skins’,” TV critic and editor of bsideblog.com, Ben Mandelker tells FOX411. “Absolutely no one is talking about ‘Skins’ on the Internet. Maybe in some forum, somewhere, but it’s not being talked about on Vulture, Gawker—I’m not seeing links on Facebook, I’m not seeing things on Twitter. I forget the show is even on. I don’t even know when it’s on, to be honest.”

Ryan and I watched 3 seasons of the British version and thoroughly enjoyed it.  As for the U.S. Version, I think they got it all wrong.  Once again... another show gone bust that I knew wouldn't make it.

Some Brothers Are Pissed

So the gloves have come off, and it's poor defenseless Britney holding herself against the big brother group of the late 70's, early 80's - The Bellamy Brothers.

Back in 1979, the duo released a self-titled track called, "If I Said You Had A Beautiful Body" with the lyrics “If I said you had a beautiful body, would you hold it against me?”

What's so funny about this topic is I had mentioned it on Facebook when Britney released her song, "Hold It Against Me,"  and now it's coming back to haunt her.

As much as I loved the Bellamy Brothers way back when, I'm on Britney's side this time.  The lyrics don't exactly match theirs and it's been over 30 years c'mon.

David Bellamy states, “Howard and I have no personal beef with Britney. She’s a talented gal. But professionally we feel completely ripped off."  Really man? Really?

Listen to their song and tell me what you think.

Ryan Phillippe for InStyle Magazine

Photoshopped or not, Ryan Phillippe still looks good.  So he's been brushed up a little, wrinkles removed to look like he's 18 going on 17 when in reality he's 36.  Okay, so InStyle magazine went a little overboard.

Either way, he's still mighty fine.  Though, they could have used the Men's Health photos from last May; those were superb quality and more of the way he's supposed to look.

American Shame?

A comparison of standards of living on several variables among the world’s wealthiest nations. Interesting presentation that encompasses both the underlying complexity of the United States but also its failures in a number of areas.

And since I know all you haters want to see Bieber shot and killed in live-action, I have included the video below for your viewing pleasure.  Just click on the 'Read More' link underneath the last image.

Music Video Flashback - 2010

Who can forget Cazwell and his group of hot boys dancing to his song, Ice Cream Truck? Nobody can, the video was chock full of ice cream and boys in workout attire, boxers, and so forth.

Makes me kinda hungry for Ice Cream actually.

3 Divas

What do Madonna, Lady Gaga, and Barbara Streisand have in common?

That in order to be successful and a true Diva means to take control of your surroundings.  Who gives a shit what anybody says or thinks about you.  

Can I hear an "Amen" up in here?

Poster of the Week - Issue No. 3 - Apathy

When I started blogging, back from 2006 through January, 2010, I used to post a 'Poster of the Week' every Sunday based on the very popular Motivational Posters; Except these were the opposite.

But since Peter's Daily Blog ended, the photos have since disappeared from My Space. So I thought I would bring them back for those who never had the chance to see them.

Continuing alphabetically, I bring you this week's poster, "Apathy."

These are meant to be funny, and in no way meant to be taken seriously.
