What I learn from magazines
Tonight was a night of reading. Awhile ago I mentioned all the free magazines I get nowadays, the only viable payout for a paltry amount of expiring Midwest miles. I've found them more of a curse than a blessing overall, especially given their propensity to arrive all together in the mail. "Here we all are, stuffed in your mailbox! You'll never have the time or desire to read us all, but we don't mind! Would you care for 100 free music downloads? What about some perfume?"
Still, though, I am doggedly determined to read each magazine I receive. I had about five strays left over from May, and I finally buckled down and read them tonight. Eh. It really wasn't worth it. I did read (in Spin) that one out of two people have an STD by the age of 25. I'm sorry, but that's a statistic I have a hard time believing. For a bunch of reasons. Half of everyone my age has had an STD? So what about people at 30? 40? Can we hit 100% at some point?
Also, I learned from Blender that The White Stripes, Wilco, The Strokes, Franz Ferdinand, and Death Cab for Cutie - combined - have not sold as many albums as Nickelback. Damn. Oh, and Mariah Carey currently has 17 number one singles to her name, and probably will end up meeting or overtaking Elvis and the Beatles, who are at 20.
Finally, I'm feeling a little ... odd. If I have Peppin sickness, I will not be pleased.

Curse that darn Mariah Carey!!! Unbelievable that such a trashy snausage has so many number ones. I think that's what I'll call her now - snausages - because to me, that is all she looks like. I just wish the girl would dress size-appropriately. Until she does, just seeing her or hearing her name makes my blood boil...BOIL I TELL YOU!!!
Snausage is the best term I've ever heard to describe Mariah Carey.
