Google-bating? Come on, you do it too... (Day 8)

Well, I was planning on switching to a video today, I even got my pretty little camera out, went outside, set up a blanket, set up the tripod, turned on the camera…wait. Why isn’t it working? Why isn’t…CRAP!

No battery power.

So I decided that was a sign from the netherworlds that today I should continue to blog.
And I shall

I’ve also decided that my ipod likes to make little jokes, and is more intelligent than that of its species.

I put my pod (that’s what we’re callin’ ‘em these days, our “pods” wicked, I know) on shuffle and I start skipping around songs, totally defeating the purpose of the shuffle when this song comes up…
“You oughtta Know” – Alanis Morrisette
then…
“I don’t want to know”- The Donnas
wait, there’s one more…
“Don’t argue with me” – by, I can’t remember but they also wrote ‘Dare to Love’

You see, my ipod has conversations with itself. Isn’t it just a little genius :)

And, as always,, my DVR has been taping things very, very useful to my lifetime experience and educations. That’s right, you guessed it, Graham Norton has gotten himself into more of his little shananagans.

I won’t elaborate on the entire show, for there were a few graphic moments (what those brits let on tv)
But I did pick up a new piece of vocab from Kevin Bacon.

Mastur-Googling : the act of looking oneself up online
Can also be substitued for Google-bating.

So, the next time you see a YouTube video where they’re doing the GoogleMeme, you’ll know what they’re really doing. Google-bating
And feel free to tell them they’re doing so.
If but only to give others reading the comments a laugh :)

That’s all I have for today, nothing exciting happened, as usual

DFTBA
