… everything else is second-rate

Is It Necessary?

AH.jpgI know this guy’s supposed to be some sort of genius and all, but do I really have to see his face everytime I get on cnn.com this morning?

That smug look, nappy hair and overgrown unibrow makes me want to switch over to My9News instead.

Money

frankNbeans

So you always hear stuff about how “money isn’t everything”, “money doesn’t buy happiness”, or ”money doesn’t solve your problems”.  Well honestly, that’s bullshit.  It really is.

I used to sort of agree with the people that said stuff like that and reply.. yeah, I guess it isn’t everything.  But I realize now that that’s all just splitting hairs.

Money is everything.  It’s what makes this world go around.  It’s what gives you the ability to be happy.  It’s what gives you the ability to do what you want, when you want, with who you want.

Yeah well money doesn’t buy health?  Tell that to the average guy that’s waiting in line for a kidney while the billionare gets his transplant tomorrow.

Yeah well with money you get more problems?  Compare the problem of the homeless woman trying to feed her kids or the problem of the CEO’s trophy wife deciding between perrywinkle or mauve colored drapes.

Seriously, give it a fucking rest.  Money is everything.  With enough money, there’s nothing you can’t do.

Veniero’s

frankNbeans

chens I just read an article that Veneiro’s on the LES was closed down by the Department of Health.  Reminded me of this picture that I took like a year ago.  It’s a sticker saying that the restaurant is closed down by the DOH for reasons like rat shit or roach infestation.

Anyway, I walked by the place everyday on my way to work and they were re-opened in less than a week from the time that sticker was put up…. but with a new name!

Being the suckers for quick and cheap lunches, my coworker and I finally went back there last week to check it out…. again.  Same old tables and chairs.  Same brown stained walls.  Same dirty workers with hair growing out of their moles. 

But they did have a new awning that said Lin’s, instead of Chen’s!

As for the food…  it was as delicious as ever.  My beef & broc was a little crunchy, but still delicious.  Yum.

WTF??!?!

frankNbeans

So some sick fuck in Austria imprisoned his daughter when she was like 19 years old in the cellar of his house.  He kept her locked up there for 20 years without anyone finding out!!

On top of that he repeatedly raped her and she ended up having 7 fucking children!!

That’s got to be the sickest thing I’ve ever heard in my life.

Other than really dark knuckles and cankles.

Racism!

frankNbeans

So the african-american community in NY is outraged that the police officers were acquitted in the racially motivated shooting of Sean Bell.  OUTRAGED!  They shot him because of his skin color.  Those bastards!

People in the crowd were screaming things like “you must stop working for the masters” to a black police officer trying to keep order.  They were demanding justice!  JUSTICE for the racist policemen!!!!

And… 2 of the 5 officers that fired shots are black.

So how is this racism again?

Can I Help You?

frankNbeans

So I went to Home Depot today during my lunch hour to check out some plants and shit.  I guess I’m getting kind of old in the sense that instead of going to places like Hooters during my lunch break, I go to Home Depot… “and maybe Bed Bath & Beyond… but I don’t know if I’ll have enough time!!”

Anyway, I’m looking around the plant section and some old hag comes up to me and asks me some stupid question about a flower.  I just gave her a blank stare and then said… “uhhh lady, I don’t work here”.

What the fuck?  It’s not like I was wearing an orange apron or anything.  Just because I go to work wearing a ThirtyTwo tshirt with jeans and sneakers, doesn’t mean I’m some high school dropout that gets paid $5.45/hr to work at Home Depot!  And I’m kidding, I wasn’t wearing my ThirtyTwo tshirt!

I guess I was pretty insulted and annoyed cause as I was walking away from her, I accidentally knocked over some potted plant and the whole thing broke on the floor.  I felt bad that some guy had to come clean it up but whatever.  I let him earn his $5.45/hr and stealthly walked away before he could ask me to pay for that shit.

Iron Triangle

frankNbeans

I was reading an article earlier about this area in Flushing called the Iron Triangle.  It’s basically a neighborhood of auto body shops and junkyards that looks like something straight out of a MadMax movie. 

I guess it’s kind of like that prostitute neighborhood in Korea that’s full of hookers, except instead of getting sex, here they fix wrecks.  Instead of getting blowjobs, you get paintjobs.  Instead of getting… well you get the point.

Anyway, there’s this redevelopment plan to fix that whole area into a place that’s visited by more than just carjackers and illegal aliens without insurance.  Now anyone with a normal brain in their skull would think that’s a good thing, right? 

Wrong.  There’s actually a group of people protesting against the redevelopment plan.  One of their biggest arguing points against it?

“[The] bread-and-butter customer base for the Iron Triangle’s auto body shops - undocumented drivers - has dried up due to an increased police presence in the area”

Just when I thought people couldn’t find anything else to bitch about.  Complaining about losing business because the cops scare away your illegal customers?

It’s like a drugdealer protesting that the housing project he’s selling his crack in is getting “cleaned up”.

MSNBC is Stupid

frankNbeans

[UPDATE] - They edited the name.  Slackers. 

Either they’re really dumb or they’re really pro Hillary Clinton.  I’m reading this book review on a book called The Bin Ladens and towards the end of the review it says…

“..rise of the legitimate bin Laden empire with the growing religious fanaticism of son Obama”

Umm yeah.

Last I heard, Obama was the last name of the Senator running for president and Osama is the first name of the 7 ft tall terrorist on a kidney dialysis machine.

How does a website that big in media let things like that slip through?

I actually kept this going for longer than I normally would because knowing my friend, it’s quite possible something like this could be true.  Then I would have felt like a bigger asshole than I usually am.

And by the way, who the hell goes to Lifehouse concerts?  I didn’t even know they were still around after they were “hanging by a moment”.

See what I did there?

Anyway, apparently alot of people still go to their concerts.  Who would have thunk it.
