Bone The Fish - Most Recent Comments!

Who said you can't coin your own term? What is "Boning the Fish"? It's a moment. A defining moment when you know that your favorite TV Show, Celebrity, Movie Series or Music Group has reached its peak. That instant you know from now on...it's all downhill. Some call it a climax of sorts. We call it "Boning the fish". From that moment on things will simply never be the same.

Staff in doctors' offices - Random Topics
Ewwww! I LOATHE having to deal with these people! Now, I will admit; there are a FEW kind and professional people who work for doctors, but it's rare. And yes, I'm sure doctors aren't the easiest employers in the world, either but still. Show some customer service and compassion! The reasons people go to a doctor is because they are ill. Certainly, not to be treated rudely or as if they are an inconvenience by the staff who, at best, went to a 2-year technical school and have never been sick a day in their lives. -- Submitted By: (Stephanie) on September 18, 2009, 3:40 pm

Animal Planet - Random Topics
MCS, you're right about nature being violent, but my beef is that Ani3al Planet cleaned up their lineup in the name of "extreme" marketing. When PBS has nature shows, they too feature predaceous animals having a meal, but it's not like they ruined their lineup in the name of "extreme" marketing. They didn't drop Britcoms, family shows, etc. to make room for extreme shows. And I hope they don't. Oh, GOD I really hope they don't! -- Submitted By: (Robert) on September 18, 2009, 11:40 am

Comcast - Random Topics
Comcast has been the worst cable company I have ever experienced! In general, they are infamous for quite possibly the worst customer service ever! I've heard horror stories about some Chicago lady getting a bill addressed to "B-Dog"; people having difficulty getting through the automated call system; an old lady in the D.C. area being jailed for sledgehammering her local Comcast office; Galveston-area customers being billed thousands of dollars from the Ike damage last year (because of lost equipment); and worst of all, Tuscon customers being subjected to 30 seconds of smut when the Arizona Cardinals lost their Super Bowl (analog feed only)! And what did they get for their trouble? 10 bucks! 10 lousy bucks! If I were Comcast, I would have apologized in form of a letter, provided them a free upgrade to Digital/HD cable (for an analog price; a permanent price lock), and issued a certificate for one free Pay-Per-View show! All of that, right there, just shows you how lousy their services really are! They should seriously get customer service lessons from Neiman's or Nordstrom's if they want to climb back to the top again! Locally (TX), we had Comcast from 2002 to 2006. We have had a little bit of customer service trouble, but none like what I mentioned above. However, their "forced commercials" (which run in two 30 second intervals) were a nightmare; not only were the PPV commercials shocking, but my family was a little bit iffy on the Comcast product commercials, too! Thank goodness for Time Warner now; sure, they have problems of their own, threatening to pull channels off the lineup, still some bad forced commercials (this is a problem with EVERY cable and satellite system, especially Dish Network), and still problems with customer service, but at least they're tame compared to COMCAST!!!!! -- Submitted By: (SVN) on September 18, 2009, 8:18 am

Public Libraries - Random Topics
This is truly one of the saddest things our society has witnessed. Libraries are no longer the collection of written works and learning. Everyone wants to use the internet now. Nobody wants to check books out. If you go into a library it is usually a haven for homeless people. This probably happened years ago, but libraries have boned with their checking out of DVDs.

IKEA Furniture - Random Topics
Oh, and to make it clear: I can't speak for the whole Europe, but in Germany, the cars are not smaller because of the smaller streets (isn't really an issue here...after the second world war, the bigger city were in ruins either way, there was no reason not to make some improvements when they got built up again) or the lack of parking space (if this is an issue or not depends on where you are living.) Yes, the gas price is one reason, but it has also a lot to do with concern for the enviroment. Do you have any idea how much crap a SUV puts into the atmosphere? Why should someone who doesn't have to transport lots of people or lots of things regulary drive such a monster? Plus, the German cars are designed a little bit different. Even the smaller ones have normally a lot of trunk space compared to an american road cruiser...so why drive a bigger car if you can transport everything you need in a smaller one just fine? -- Submitted By: (Swanpride) on September 14, 2009, 4:59 am

IKEA Furniture - Random Topics
That's the biggest nonsense I ever heard. The only difference between Europeans and Americans concerning the use of cars is the money avaible (there may be one car in one family insteat of two if money is an issue), the age (American teenagers are allowed to drive from the age of 16 onward, in Europe the more common age is 18 and the teenagers normally have to be content with using the car of the parents once a while until they can pay their own car...if american shows are to believe, every teenager there gets an own car as soon as possible) and the fact that some people don't use cars because of envirement issues. Normally, the question "car or not" gets decided on factors like the place someone lives, the money avaible aso. The very idea to buy ikea furniture and transport it in a train is simply riddiculous...that may work if you bought a small table or something like that, but have you any idea how heavy the parts for something like a wall unit are? Everyone with just an unze of brain would never try to transport ikea furniture with public transportation. Even if someone doesn't own a car, he would either borrow one or use the ikea "send at home" service. Or simply order something from another supplier...Ikea is not the only one who offers furniture which has to be put together by the customer, you know. IKEA is successful because they offer quality furniture for a good price...not furniture build for the eternity (although there are some "Billi" boards from my childhood I still use), but especially young people like to buy their first furnitures there, because they normally only have a small budget. Later, when they earn more money, they may or may not exchange the Ikea furniture for something even more sturdy, but in the first years, when one is changing the place to live more often, Ikea is normally the best solution. In addition, the design of the furniture is very practical. I don't think that it looks cheap, either. (Perhaps Europeans simply have a different tast concerning furniture?) And some people even have fun putting the furniture together. -- Submitted By: (Swanpride) on September 14, 2009, 4:48 am

Survivor's debut signaled the impending death of television. Even though Real World had been on for some time, it was a novelty. Survivor set a precedent. It was interesting seeing a piece on Sally Jessy Raphael about reality TV. She compared it to the rise in popularity of talk shows in the 80s and wondered when it was going to saturate the market.

No, neo 11, I do NOT think that folks in Europe ONLY get around via bicycle or train but for many reasons (e.g. gas prices more than double in US, extra narrow city streets built centuries before cars' invention, a tiny number of available parking spaces,etc.) a LARGER proportion of Europeans use those modes of transport instead of cars than do folks in the USA (which isn't the ONLY non-European nation where folks use cars). Many folks who have cars only use them for road trips where there are no passenger rail lines and the cars themselves are often much smaller than US models due to the above-mentioned high gas prices and narrow city streets . Yes, there are also folks in the USA that opt not to use cars but, so far, they don't seem to have the same proportions as their European counterparts. I'm sorry if the phrasing of my first post made it sound as though I thought that NO Europeans had cars or that NO US Americans went without cars but, for folks who don't own large vehicles to transport bulky items, IKEA Furniture has tapped a very viable market so that's why they've been more of a hit in Europe. -- Submitted By: (Pelirojo) on September 13, 2009, 1:43 pm

I don't think Swanpride is defending the Paparazzi, but is trying to get people to understand that it takes two to tango. Though the Paparazzi deserve blame, they're not the only ones who deserve it. Their "customers" are deserving of blame as well, for feeding the problem by buying this crap. And I agree, they do: anyone willing to do business with the Paparazzi or willing to buy something that requires their "skill" (and I use that term LOOSELY) is just as low as the Paparazzi themselves. The best cure to the disease that is the Paparazzi is to boycott tabloids and celebrity gossip.

Vegetarianism - Random Topics
I suspect that what really gets people in a knot is not vegetarians per se, but rather *sanctimonious* vegetarians - those who feel that their eating habits make them morally superior. I have no problem with people who choose a vegetarian diet - there are two in my immediate family, and thus most family meals/cooking are organized to accomodate this. However, both of these people are vegetarians for dietary reasons, because they found eating meat upset their digestion. As a result, they have no problems with others who choose to eat meat. Because of these circumstances, I eat a fair amount of vegetarian food (often, it's a waste of time to prepare two dishes versus one) and I have no problem with it - good vegetarian cooking is the same as any other kind of cooking. I suspect that the average North American would probably be better off (from a dietary point of view) eating somewhat less meat than they currently do. But smug vegetarians trumpeting their supposed moral superiority and expressing their outrage against meat eaters isn't going to accomplish this. -- Submitted By: (Eugene) on September 10, 2009, 6:30 am

I'm all for eating healthy and if folks can actually have a balanced diet without including meat, good for them and I have to admit that I don't eat nearly as much meat as I did in the past. However; I don't like being told that somehow my dietary choices are immoral if I eat 'anything with eyes'. Does that mean those who choose to be intollerant vegetarians themselves don't eat POTATOES?!

I hear you...but my point is that the society is contributing to their ongoing existence. There are rules against meth labs. But there isn't a rule against taking a photo of a celebrity in their recreation time. If the society really had such a big problem with paparazzi, they would make a rule that privat photos of celebrities are only allowed when they show something of public interest (like said celebrity doing something illegal). But nobody tries to push for such a rule...everybody is whining about the thing the Paparazzi do, but nobody tries to do something, because in reality, most people want to see the fotos.

shanequia, That was the late Dave Thomas the founder of Wendy's who put up the image of the red-headed pigtailed girl on the sign- modelled somewhat after his own daughter named Wendy. As for the food? Well, the burgers always seemed to greasy and underdone to me (I don't care if they called them 'hot and juicy') . I rarely eat hamburgers these days but when I do, they need to be well done and moist (NOT greasy or, worse, smushed on the grill which turns them into pucks) . Anyway, because I hardly ever eat burgers and they don't cook them they way I like them, they've boned a long time for me- and not because of any bogus rumors. While I'm here, though, anyone else old enough to remember when they lost a good amount of business due to some rotten rumor about the burgers being made of worms instead of beef? It was,of course, completely bogus but one of my school friends jokingingly asked for a worm burger and they immediately took her to the kitchen prep area to prove they were beef without so much as cracking a smile. -- Submitted By: (Pelirojo) on September 8, 2009, 2:30 pm

Paparazzi - Random Topics
Swanpride, Read my comments again since this will be my only repeat. I didn't say the paparazzi were SOLELY responsible for the vicious cycle of chasing down folks to profit from their exploitation (and, in fact, did not address Princess Diana's death at all), but I think to pretend that simply because others in the transaction contribute to this mess (tabloid employers, buying public) does NOT absolve their own guilt. Moreover, if they have the skill to photograph and write stories, they could use those for many purposes besides stalking celebs and their extended families (including minors and elderly relatives who did not ask to be part of this). As for Princess Diana, yes, the others you mentioned are partially responsible,too, but that doesn't negate the fact that the papazzi raced after her car through twisting downtown tunnels to get more photos (putting countless other drivers/pedestrians at risk)- when the whole world ALREADY knew she was dating Dodi Fayed so there was no motivation other than greed for more photos involved here. Therefore, they DO deserve to be dissed for their role in that senseless multiple accidental death. Also, many of them seem to taunt their targets to get reactions for the sole purpose of getting better photos/video to get more money. To say that they don't deserve criticism because they only are supplying a market makes as much sense as absolving meth lab operators while ignoring not only the human desecration of methamphetamines on users and their families/ colleagues but also the incredible amount of environmental havoc that their poison's production leaves behind! -- Submitted By: (Pelirojo) on September 8, 2009, 2:10 pm

@Pelirojo Sure, they decided themselfes to do this job, but in the end, they are the symptom, not the illness. The whole Princess Diana story is a good example. Yes, the Paparazzi did their part in the whole tragedy. But they were not the only one. The newspapers are responsible for paying such a large sum for Princess Diana pictures. The public is responsible for lapping up the news about her. The chauffeur is responsible for drinking and especially for driving way to fast. Diana herself was responsible because she did not bother to fasten her seat-belt. But in the end, everyone was crying murder about the Paparazzi...and everyone was buying the latest news about her burial. People simply don't learn. -- Submitted By: (Swanpride) on September 7, 2009, 1:27 pm

Paparazzi - Random Topics
Swanpride, Gee, you think it's not possible for any of those paparazzi to think of another way to earn a living- like there's no cans for them to pick up where they live or they have no plasma to sell? While I grant that those who buy the tabloids and those who run them deserve to be dissed for each of their parts of the transaction that alone doesn't erase the culpability of the photo suppliers in seeking to blatantly profit by exploiting even the smallest semblence of privacy for those in their glares- often doing such mundane things as walking their dogs or picking up the mail in their driveways. -- Submitted By: (Pelirojo) on September 6, 2009, 6:35 pm

Woodstock - Random Topics
By all means, correct me if I'm wrong. Isn't the song "We didn't the Fire" about this very issue? I.e., that people say the Baby Boomers screwed the world up. However, the song shows that the world was *always* screwed up. I wouldn't be surprised if in another 20-30 years that people end up saying the same thing about the children of Baby Boomers. -- Submitted By: (ExplodingConsole) on September 6, 2009, 1:39 pm

Humane Society of the United States, The (HSUS) - Random Topics
I saw a sign on my local Humane Society's window, warning people about donating to the Humane Society of the United States (the HSUS). So I did a little research, and here is my message to those of you wanting to donate to your local animal shelters: DO NOT SEND IT TO THE HSUS! The Humane Society of the United States is not affiliated with any animal shelter, they are just using the name "Humane Society" to trick people into thinking they're the main branch when they are not (the name "Humane Society" is not copyrighted, so they can use it without being sued). Just donate to your local shelter instead. They won't get a cent if you send your donation to the HSUS. -- Submitted By: (Robert) on September 6, 2009, 9:08 am

TV Guide - Random Topics
I was born in 1969. I was dirt poor, and my family and I couldnt afford a luxury such as TV Guide. Yes, to us buying a magazine for the tv schedules was a luxury. Instead, we would use the weekly tv schedule that came free in the Sunday newspaper. In the mid-70s-early 80s, I had a friend whose mother bought the tv guide every week. And when I was over my friends house, I would read their copy of tv guide very thoroughly, every page, because I really liked that magazine. Many is the time I wished I had a subscription or could afford to buy an issue. Then in November 1982, I went to the local grocery store, and they had two issues of tv guide up for sale. It was a Wednesday, but they still had that weeks issue up for sale as well as next weeks issue. I remember the date of the tv guide: It was the Nov. 20-26, 1982 issue with 4 of the cast members of Three's Company on the cover (naturally the other one being Nov. 27-Dec. 3). And I even remember the cover price of the tv guide then: 50 cents. Fortunately, I had the money on me to buy both that weeks and next weeks issue. (I think they had stopped using staples to hold the pages together by then) I debated with myself whether or not to actually purchase that weeks issue since it was Wednesday (Nov. 24), close to the end of the week, but I wound up buying it in addition to next weeks issue. That would be my first time in buying TV Guide. From then on I was a regular buyer of tv guide. Every week I would buy it from the local grocery store, or newsstand, take it home, go to my bedroom, lay on my bed and go through the tv guide. And I would devour it. Every single page. I really loved the format of the tv guide back then. It would be about a year or two before I bought a subscription and have it mailed to me every week. The reason why I waited so long to buy a subscription had to do with the cost. It would be that long before I had enough money in one place to afford a subscription. And when it was mailed to me, I'd go through the same routine: I'd grab my tv guide, go to my bedroom, lie down on my bed, and go through it page by page, completely enjoying every page. I really enjoyed their fall preview issue, their thickest issue of the year. I also enjoyed saving that issue, and a year or two down the road reading it over again to be reminded which shows hit and which shows flopped. Though as a kid, from 1983-1987, my feelings about the fall preview issue was half and half. As much as I enjoyed reading it, from 1983-1987 I was still in school and I hated school with a BIG passion. The Fall Preview issue was a stark reminder that the new and long school year was here. That my summer vacation was really over and it was the beginning of a dreaded 10 months of what I hated the most: school. It also brings me a memory of how cable tv was growing by leaps and bounds through the years. But I couldnt afford cable tv at the time (I wouldnt get cable tv until 1996). As a result, there came less and less good stuff to watch on the free broadcast channels. As cable tv grew, it would snatch up the rights to all the movies and classic tv shows I used to watch and enjoy for free on free television. The tv guide reflected this change as I saw in the tv guide the cable channels growing in number and adding more and more classic tv shows and movies while my choices in local free tv was shrinking. Eventually, whenever I got my latest issue of tv guide in the mail, I would avoid reading what was airing on cable (it was torture to know about all the good stuff that I was missing), and stick to reading what was on the local free channels. As a result of this, it didnt take me as long to go through the tv guide as it used to. I stopped buying tv guide when they changed their format to what it is now. I used to think that I'd NEVER stop buying tv guide. Its a crying shame what they did to what was once such a great magazine. -- Submitted By: (bmovies) on September 5, 2009, 9:26 am

Animal Crossing - Random Topics
A fun game, but not without its problems. If you really like a neighbor, they'll soon get the urge to move out. The game will become a chore after a while. Special events (like the fortune teller Katrina and other visitors) are too far and few between. But, there are fun parts, like when the special events occur, visiting the island (Gamecube version only, and you need a GBA and a hookup cable), designing your house, fishing, and planting trees and flowers. There's also great fun to be had in bashing neighbors you don't like over the head with your bug-catching net. :) -- Submitted By: (Robert) on September 5, 2009, 8:37 am

Animal Planet - Random Topics
Right on the mark, SVN. I hate how they cleaned their lineup in favor of the "extreme" shows. They did it to appeal to an adult audience...well, I'm in the age group they're targeting, and even I think their new marketing plan sucks. Maybe instead of replacing the elephant and globe logo with that crappy one (It's not ANIMAL PLANET anymore, now it's ANI3AL PLANET!), they should have a shark skeleton with the words "Animal Planet" resting on a pile of coleslaw.

TV Guide - Random Topics
Long before it bought out the JTS site, and long before it became a tabloid, TV Guide was, believe it or not, a magazine of some substance. My grandmother used to save TV Guides occasionally, from the late 60s up until about 1990. When I last looked through the collection, I was stunned at how different the content was back in that era. There were articles about TV shows and actors to be sure, but you also had articles about the industry itself, and even articles pertaining to world news. One cover from 1981 had an illustrated - yes, illustrated - portrait of Prince Charles and Princess Diana to commemorate their wedding. They actually had (gasp!) covers with people over the age of 40 on them! And of course, they had detailed local listings, and lots of them. But all of that has changed now. With the new magazine size came not only fewer listings but pointless tabloid fluff. You now have covers with headlines like "The Ten Sexiest Celebrities" and "Who looked sluttiest on this week's Dancing With The Stars?". I don't know if all of this is a consequence of the failing magazine industry, or perhaps just the dumbing down of America, all I know is that I want no part of TV Guide anymore (unless maybe there ends up being a toilet paper shortage in the near future). -- Submitted By: (Strenikstund) on September 3, 2009, 10:54 pm

I just wonder if they will be able to convey the disrespect of advertisers to their readers with the same effectiveness in a magazine that actually accepts advertising.

Organic Farming - Random Topics
Though I slam organic methods, I keep an open mind: I dip into it now and then, because there are some organic foods which actually taste better than their conventional counterparts at my grocery store. Nobody in their right mind wants animals to be mistreated (on top of which, sick and abused animals pass on their illnesses to the food they make/are made into). With the human population going up and up, factory farming was used to make food faster and cheaper. With the Earth's human population of 6.5 Billion going up, going organic is becoming less practical. -- Submitted By: (Robert) on August 30, 2009, 12:52 pm
