I want to put a quote here. But, I can't decide on which one. Suggestions?

Hey Lego, WTF?!

So apparently Lego has decided to make a cannon that looks exactly like the cannons that I used to play with except is actually fires. What the Hell?! It took'em 20 years to figure out how awesome that would be. If feel extremely left out since I'm no longer in the prime Lego age. But, if you think that that will stop me from buying Legos, you are incorrect. And it certainly won't stop Jon. Actually, Jon just wants more space Legos, he doesn't care about this new awesome cannon. Jon's just too much of an engineer and thinks like one too. He really thinks he's better than us non-engineers, with his two paged resume and his paid internships. Well, all I have to say to that is this. If you put all the famous, historic, and world changing figures from the Earth's past in one room. I bet you $3,792.42 that most of them are not engineers. So take that!

Another thing, why the Hell are Legos so over priced. One hundred small pieces of colored plastic cost $50. That's absurd. Why hasn't someone challenged Lego in that market? I know there's 'Mega Blocks' but they suck. You've got to hand it to the Dutch, they know how to scam. They know we love Legos and there's no way we'll stop loving them. I think I'll create my own brand of building plastic pieces (maybe I'll call them Pregos) and I'll lace them with PCP. You know, angle dust, pow, snap, father winter, white lady, oompa loompa. That way the kids won't stop buying it even after they've grown up and been arrested for driving under the influence of Pregos. It's bullet proof.

5 vs. 5

Basketball is a team sport! (unless it's 'one on one') Use your teammates, you freakin' people! Past it around, set screens, feed it to the big man in the middle and post up. Stop taking wild three pointers and driving to the hole with no set ups. You're not Lebron James. It you can't stand playing team sports then stick to tennis and golf. (Two sports I also enjoy playing) Maybe I'm more upset about this than most people. But when I want to play basketball I want the win as a team, it feels much better that way.

All you can eat Buffet

Why is it that Jimmy Buffet is not more famous? Sure he's ironically known for Margaritas and Cheeseburgers, but no one really loves him. Well, I do. And to prove it I promise to eat a cheeseburger or drink a Margarita once a day. I think the world would be a better place if at all treaty and peace negotiations margaritas and cheeseburgers were served non-stop to all the delegates.
