Things I don't give a sh*t about

Is it just me, or are we being bombarded with things that really, who gives a sh*t.
In no particular order is a list of a few things that people are talking about, talking up, and I can't figure out why.

#1 Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest


The first movie sucked. Why make a second one? We are about to be bombarded with images of a crazy looking Johnny Depp (like the one above) on TV, in magazines, on billboards. I really don't want to know want what might be involved with the special McDonald's meal that will be put together for this, but I am thinking it will be used to up the sales of the filet o-fish. Yum.

#2 Nelly Furtado, "Promiscuous"
On first listen, I thought this was another crappy Black Eyed Peas song that Fergie was way too heavily involved in. Then I thought, great, this is going to be in every car commercial, Pepsi commercial. The I heard that it was actually the "I'm like a bird" singer! What happened here? Sellout? Anyone?

#3 Paris Hilton, Stars Are Blind

This is the first single off Hilton's forthcoming debut album (and hopefully the last). The song has already hit the iTunes Top 20 downloaded songs!! I have a theory here... It could be tweeny-boppers spending the 99 cents they found while cleaning out last seasons Louis Vuitton bag in preparationtion for their summer Coach bag. But I think Paris Hilton is buying her own song, over and over and over again. It pays to be an heiress. The song is also climbing on the radio charts!! WHY!?!?! Can we please look at some of these lyrics that are whispered, over mixed and over produced to not even sound closely to what, if she had any talent, she would sound like singing: "Those other guys all wanna take me for a ride/But when I walk their talk is suicide/Some people never get beyond their stupid pride/But you can see the real me inside/And I'm satisfied, oh no, ohh"..."I can make you nice and naughty/Be the devil and angel too/Got a heart and soul and body/Let's see what this love can do."
If you want to laugh some more... here is a link to the actual song. You can thank me later.

#4 Superman Returns
I just can't figure out this movie. It's getting some hype, but I don't think people are excited about this movie. Howard Stern went to a screening and liked the fact that since the last Superman man movie was made, effects are so much better and when Superman flies, he FLIES. I want to see it, but I don't want to see it. Perhaps it is reminants of disappointment of Bataman Begins. Then there are the rumblings in the press that Superman is gay. "Some have also seen the hero as a gay icon, forced to live a double life with his super-self in the closet. A recent edition of the gay magazine "The Advocate" even asked on its cover, "How gay is Superman?" Well take a look at one of the posters for sale through the movie... you might have the answer.
