Will you stop it with the teenage vampires already?

OMG! A TV show about a teenage vampire that loves a human girl? Who thought of this? GENIUS! OR…Just another reason to not watch the CW.

CW, we were willing to put up with One Tree Hill. You were kind of pushing it by bringing 90210 and Melrose Place back to haunt humanity. Now you go and force more ultra-sexed, teenage vampires into our televisions? I hope you’re happy.

Below is an extended look at the new series which will begin to suckify television starting on September 10th, 2009. Be careful, as the preview has been known to make eyes bleed and heads explode from sheer suckiness.

We normally award between 1 & 5 Snuggies for bad ideas, but today CW has earned…

5 Glittery Vampires!!!!!

The ol’ ball and chain

Usually this phrase refers to a spouse. This time it refers to the actual thing. Many people, myself included, have relatively short attention spans that result in never getting any studying done. Ever. So curiosite.com offers the following solution to our problems:

Now 4 hours and $115 later we’re all freakin’ geniuses. The device weighs in at 21 lbs. and includes a safety key in case of emergencies.

It’s supposed to keep you in one place so that you get an optimum time of study under your belt before you go and get yourself distracted by shiny things and pictures that move. I see myself getting distracted anyway, then getting angry over having wasted $115, and then venting my frustration with some study ball exercise a la Skip It!

If you replace the words skip it and jump with study and learn, the commercial works for the study ball just fine. And that earns curiosite.com Four Snuggies!

Sherwin Williams Logo

Really? With paint?

The number of people that think this logo was a bad idea is apparently large enough to make the folks at Sherwin Williams include an official explanation on their website. I’ll quote it here:

Our historical logo is one of the most recognized company logos in existence. Created in the late 1800s, the logo’s purpose was to represent the company’s desire to help beautify and protect the buildings of the world. It was a symbol of a young company’s enthusiasm, idealism and hope regarding its future and the possibility for achievement that hovered on the nation’s horizon.

Very quickly, our “Cover the Earth” logo became a figurative emblem signifying quality, integrity and service — the very same things it stands for today.

For this, Sherwin Williams, we give you Three Snuggies
