Name dropper

What is with people who insist of throwing out name brands with every day, common items? Some examples that I am sick to death of hearing are as follows: ‘I was reading the news last night…on my iPhone’ or ‘I drove down to Seattle for the weekend, in my Prius’. Why don't you just say that you were reading the news and saw something interesting or just tell me that you drove down to Seattle this weekend, what the frig is with the name brand dropping? About the only vehicle that you can get away with this name dropping shit is a Jeep because it is a breed all to itself. When you name brand drop to try and make yourself sound cooler, you end up sounding like a pretentious tool.

Ding dong the witch is dead

There is a god...My work nemesis, the one who makes me want to spontaneously shout out the 'c-word' in meetings, in the kitchen and in the hallways is finally gone. Coming into work already feels so much better. There is no stress, everyone is smiling and the sun is shining. It’s truly amazing how one toxic personality can really bring an entire office down.

Japadog hair

Japadog has always been outside of the Sutton hotel but a second location has opened right across the street from my office tower which is bloody fantastic if you ask me. For my non-Vancouver readers, Japadog is quite possibly the world’s best hotdog stand ever! I love the veggie dogs with seaweed and wasabi mayo, mmmm. So I walked into work today with my hair tied back into a ponytail and my colleague Anton says “Oh look, you have your Japadog hair today!” Am I that predictable? It is a total bitch getting wasabi mayo out of your hair, trust me.
