Slips

1) Freudian slip yesterday on NPR – there was some kind of jibber jabber about America’s dependence on foreign oil and how we should switch to ethanol derived from corn and then there was some more jibber jabbering, and yada yada’s, mumbo jumbo, and a couple of blah, blah, blah’s. BUT THEN instead of saying “President Bush” some funky-fresh, homoerotic reporter said “the President’s Bush” and I promptly leaned my head back, closed my eyes, and laughed, and laughed, until the car behind me honked viciously because he had to wait a whole .000000000002 seconds for me to go through a light that had just turned green. I think I might’ve given him a dirty look as he zoomed by my driver’s side window, but looking back, I regret my facial expression. Not because it was impulsive and thoughtless (which are two traits that I’m proud to say are distinctly American), but because ultimately it was unpatriotic. I mean isn’t a lack of consideration for others the American way? Isn’t it? I’m not sure. Maybe I should consult the president’s bush. Wasn’t he the one jibber jabbing on the T.V. last night? Oh, no? You say that dick was actually “President Bush”? Ahhhh…..huMm…..so, how long do think it’d take to become a Canadian citizen?

2) Nip Slip - Mena Suvari slips off her bikini top:

Now it’s time for a poem!

3) Subliminal Slip – McDonalds popped a subliminal advertisement (they actually funded this entire episode) into Iron Chef.


Creepy, huh?

But what I’m wondering is why Iron Chef? Is it because Iron Chef Mario Batali and Grimace share a similar physical appearance?

Is it because a chunk of the show’s audience is stoned college students who might need post-show munchies? Or is it because they want us to mistake Creme Brule for Fruit'n'Yogurt Parfaits? I’m not exactly sure what their reasons are, or if this is the only show that has subliminal advertising in it, but If this is what McDonalds has been up to for the past few decades, no wonder why my sister an I – both buxom screen-watching zombies - felt the need to scarf down so many hormone-induced Chicken McNuggets back in the day.

Thanks for the rack, Micky D’s!
