I'm probably citing a number of previously-mentioned I-Don't-Get-Its, but here they are anyway:

-the fascination with anything Kartrashian. -Why, oh why is a sex tape (and a bad one at that) so enthralling and scandalous?

-reality TV with dysfunctional, semi-illiterate Southern families. -Are Stoopid and Spawn of Stoopid really that interesting? If you must be a looky-loo at a family train wreck, can't you choose people who at least have a collective IQ that's higher than your shoe size?

-Starbucks. -Why is a bitter cup of brew heralded as the gold standard?

-skinny jeans. -They were ugly and unflattering back then and still are.

-low-rise jeans. -Ugly, unflattering AND uncomfortable.

-hot chicken from Nashville. -I'm a Nashville native. Hot chicken did *not* originate in Nashville. It's an urban myth created by some Chicago transplant who thought Prince's hot chicken in north Nashville was great. He then told everyone that Nashville is *the* place for hot chicken! It's not native to Tennessee, people, and that proclamation completely dismisses Mississippi, Georgia, Virginia, North Carolina, Alabama, Florida, Arkansas, South Carolina, and Kentucky hot fried chicken. P.S. Hot chicken isn't the bomb except on evacuation from the human body. Be careful what you wish for.

-Lay's freaky-deaky potato chip flavors. -No, Southern biscuits and gravy isn't good on a potato chip.

-87% cocoa dark chocolate. -Because nothing tastes better than sour, unsweetened chocolate.

-mongo beards. -The guys on Duck Dynasty aren't cool, bubba. And neither is that piece of pie crust from last week that's still sitting in your facial dreadlocks.

-people who still think Bristol Palin is awesome. -She went on a high school celibacy lecture circuit and then got knocked up for the second time. Really??

...In my own inimitable fashion, I have blended some of these rants together.....thereby visualizing Kim KarHOEshian with a Duck Dynasty beard chompin' on some hot chicken and wipin' her fingers on her skinny jeans...all the while a Southern biscuit chip dangles from the beardzilla....

i don't really understand Why Mcdo's physical product looks like a Low Quality version of their products in commercial

i mean, they have a lots of Fastfood enemies and they did not improved their damn product

Okay, the story of this why i said that i don't get this

I was at Mcdo yesterday, i ordered chicken fillet, it looks big in the picture so i think it would sustain my food need for lunch because my brain was so busted up because of a "no sleep" work (so yes, i haven't sleeping yesterday until now). and i was so disappointed, guess the mcdo product looks like my idol local actor, handsome in television, looks sh*t in reality

Music is a very personal thing.
It either speaks to your it does not.

I like it because it is dark and creative.

The Wall is a story. A story of a musician with emotional and psychological issues.

If you just want a happy tune or a tune you can dance to your music preference will be much different.
To each his own.

I never got stoned.

Pink Floyd is either my favorite band of all time or one of 2

Pink Floyd is in a whole different category for me. The Robin Williams, the Bjorn Borg, the Wayne Gretzky, the John Steinbeck of rock. You have your talent, and then you have your transcendence. Not everyone will get it. That's fine. Appreciation is subjective. That's my subjectivity.
