Just another WordPress.com weblog

she should be stopped… October 26, 2006

Sorry for the days without updates ladies and gents, but I was out of town for a few days. I’ll try to make it up to you all I promise. For now…enjoy the Paris Hilton hatin’!

-Rant-

The latest Harris Interactive survey shows that Paris Hilton is the celebrity that people would like to watch get killed in a horror movie. When Hilton was told that she had topped the survey (21% above second place finisher Lindsay Lohan), she took the news as a compliment. “My death scene is really cool. It’s the coolest death scene in [House of Wax].” Seeing Paris Hilton get a metal pole through the forehead was a very exciting moment in my life and I would get a lot of enjoyment seeing it happen again. Of course the downside would be seeing her try to act again. Only she could ruin one of the greatest moments ever! Seriously, is nothing sacred anymore? Why can’t Paris Hilton just be a hotel location like it was 30 years ago?

I love VH1’s Best Week Ever Blog. Recently Michelle Collins wrote a letter to PETA demanding that they concentrate more on live animal torture and less on old ladies with fur coats. These live animals she wishes to protect are those that have become celebrity accessories. When did it become okay for someone to carry around a live animal in a bag? I really hope Collins sent this letter to PETA. If they are actually for the ethical treatment of animals, they will spray paint Paris Hilton the next time she walks down Rodeo Drive. Now that’s hot!

-Rant-

I like pretty things. I enjoy looking at a website that someone has spent time creating. Because of this, I tried to make my site pleasing to the eye. Then there is the opposite of that…the website that is overdone. Take mtv.com for example (WARNING: do not go there unless you have an ultra fast computer or the patience of Job). I look around online for ranting and raving inspiration. I got to mtv’s website because they are a music news outlet. It takes the website forever to load and once it does, it is the hardest thing I have ever tried to read. Then it crashed Mozilla and I had to start my search over again. Also included in the website design annoyance department are all the people on Myspace who add a million and one different things to their page. What is the point people? You could take two seconds and type “I heart Pugs” but instead, you go to glitterupmymyspacepagerightnow.com and make us wait. Enough is enough people. Simple. Smart. That is all a website needs to be.

To those at mtv.com – maybe you should be more about the music and less about the clutter.

If you all are really getting into the whole blog thing I am, you will be happy to learn about Bloglines.com . This site is amazing. It is very simple, easy to set up, and saves a lot of time. You sign up for an account (free!) and it will give you some popular blogs as suggestions. From there you can type in a specific blog address (example: http://rantsnraves.wordpress.com works just great!) or you can search for ones you enjoy. As far as I can tell there is not a limit to how many blogs you can add. It’s pretty amazing having the ability to access all of your favorite web blogs all in one place. It is a very smart and simple website. If I gave out gold stars for awesome, Bloglines would totally get one!

Does anyone have any blog sites you love? If so, leave ‘em in the comments. I need to read more entertaining blogs.
