Curious

Questions I am currently sending into the void:

1. Why is South Park so funny? It's a cartoon about eight-year-olds doing and seeing every sick thing that can possibly be imagined. By all rights, it should be repulsive. But, every time I watch it, I find myself laughing guiltily. Why is that?

2. Why isn't it Friday?

3. How is it that names come and go in trends and there are names that mark entire generations? Names like "Barbara" or "Bill" -- people don't name their kids Barbara anymore -- or "Brittany" and "Jason" for our generation, and now our generation is naming their kids "Destiny" and "Chastity." Don't get it.

4. What the hell kind of sadistic person names their daughter Chastity? Don't they know what it means? Are they going to name her little sisters "Virgin" and "Celibacy" and "Nun?"

5. What IS America's fascination with Hannah-Fucking-Montana????

6. Why isn't it Friday?

7. How come getting up the gumption to go and exercise is sooooo bloody hard?

8. Now. I know I'm not the first person to ask this, but why can't weekends be at least one day longer? Would the world and the economy really just explode if people worked for four days a week instead of five? I suppose it might... I mean, it's possible... ugh. I hate it when I answer my own rhetorical questions.

9. Why does reading Bridget Jones's Diary make one speak in incomplete sentences?

10. Have I mentioned why isn't it Friday?
