Now that I think about it...

These few weeks had been kinda weird. Had a really bad bug and then I had to force myself into thinking positively just to make sure I can actually pull myself out of it. Now that I have... my progress is slowed again. How typical is that?

Anyway, today I'll post a few things that I thought about in my (very VERY little) spare time and got confused about in the past week:

TMNT: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle

Seriously: WTF? I know that as a kid I thought they were cool too but can you imagine what the creative process must be like?

"Hmm. Turtles! Except it's humanoid turtles... who are ninjas! Yes! Ninjas! Everyone love ninjas. And mutants too. Like the X-Men. And we need a giant rat. Oh oh and pizza. Hmm... pizza...."

I can even understand why they came up with Aquaman. TMNT is just... WTF?

Having said that, they're still cool. Unlike...

Paris Hilton: The Vicious Cycle

Why on WHY are people paying so much attention to her? And THEN I realise it's vicious cycle: people talk about her, then people talking about why we're still talking about her, then people talk about how complaining that we're talking about her is STILL talking about her... and there, I just contributed to the whole vicious cycle.

Sometimes I still don't know why we pay so much attention to celebrities.

Dogs... err... "toys"

Come across this goodie the other day. I don't even what to ask about its creative process...

McDonalds Subliminal Ad



What I don't get is that why McDonalds even need subliminal advertising: Look, it's the biggest fast food chain on the planet. I can't even drive anywhere in Auckland without seeing at least 5 of their logos somewhere. If THAT doesn't get registered somewhere in people's subconscious I don't know what would. Why even risk looking bad and put that one frame there? Really: why?

This ends this week of rant. I'm also freezing cold at the moment. Hopefully next week I can also report on how far I've gone with my result. I won't hold my breath if I were you.
