Ok, so I got online today and Yahoo sent me highlights of the days news like it always does and I saw a headline about President Obama and out of some morbid curiosity I clicked the link.
Imagine my surprise to find the juicy details of...whether or not Obama dyes his hair? Really? This is news? WHO THE HELL CARES!? Who gives a rats fart if Obama dyes his hair, don't we have more important things to discuss like, oh I don't know, Healthcare Reform, the war in Iraq or maybe all the animals dropping dead all over the fricken world?
But no, the headline was all about if Obama dyes his hair... I seriously wanted to shoot myself or the people who think this is news worthy. I mean seriously, this is just like the tabloids where they ask if an actress has had a boob job when in reality they're just wearing two different types of dress, one that doesn't support and one that does. After seeing the photos of Obama in question, which I'm not posting again because it's just too stupid, my initial opinion is the lights are different so his hair is in brighter light in one and darker light in the other. It's the same phenomenom that happens to every single person on the planet!
Good lord people! Seriously, if this is news I weep for my fellow man. This is just sad. WHO CARES?! Move along, this is not news and honestly, I want to see what Jon Stewart has to say about this ridiculous bunk.

Super Heroes
Watching "Hancock" with my husband, so far funny film. Will Smith is great, so I'm not surprised. But my husband said he's better then Aquaman in super hero terms...now, I love Aquaman and think he gets a bum rap.
Sure, his only super power was talking to ocean creatures and that would fail miserably on land...but how many of us would love that kind of power? I personally think he's one of the better ones.
Superman for example. The guy is an alien and is allergic to his own planet. He can do amazing things and yet he's a whiney little brat. Invincible, fast, handsome...totally unrealistic.
But on the other end of the spectrum you have Batman. Orphan rich kid with anger issues and way too much money. Not invinsible but his gadgets overcompensate for his physical lack. And he's whiney too.
Spiderman...there we have another whiney boy, bit by a spider and now he shoots goo from his wrists...I'd rather not think of what the goo is made of or even how it's physically possible.
And the women super heroes, yeesh! Can anyone say fan service? They have more tits and ass then is humanly possible and you think fighting evil in high heels is something they'd actually do? Have you ever tried just walking in those things? Not happenning.
The X-men are a whole other thing, so disfunctional and their issues are enough to drive a shrink nuts. Though most of their powers are pretty awesome and the fact that they're mutant humans and not alien races that look human is a plus. But still, nearly invinsible and too damn whiney for their own good.
You see a theme here?
Why do super heroes have to be so damn childish? Hancock at least is more human in his emotions, you can relate to him. I like that.
If super heros ever become a reality I hope they're more like that then Superman.
