I Take the Same Shower Every Day

I take the same shower every day. I do. That's not a joke. And I do
it on purpose. Call me crazy or obsessive compulsive. Tell me I'm
fucking nuts. I'm not going to stop.

Every morning I wake up and brush my teeth. I like to brush my teeth
before I shower so that I don't have to smell or taste my rancid
morning breath as I bathe. It also let's me leave toothpaste running
down my cheek for some mild morning amusement. After the teeth, I
usually strip and take a piss. If I don't feel it coming right away,
sometimes I'll wait until I get in the shower, because running water
always makes me have to squirt. I also enjoy studying the patterns my
yellow piss makes as it merges and eventually dissolves into the
shower water.

Once I'm in the shower, the magic happens. First, I soak for a
minute, get the hair and body wet. Then, almost right away, I put in
the shampoo. I don't like to fuck around too long; it's usually right
to business. My hair is relatively short so I only need a dab or two
of shampoo. I work that into a real nice lather, scrubbing and
scrubbing, maybe, if the mood strikes, even scratching my scalp a
little along the way. I don't go for that fruity stuff, either.
Smelling strawberries all freakin' day makes me sick.

I don't rinse the shampoo right away. That would be stupid. I leave
it in and go for the soap. Irish Spring. Smells good and has a neat
green and white swirly design that's pleasing to the eye. I tried
some of those man gel bodywash things but they're bullshit. They
don't lather right and they smell like deoderant. I don't wanna walk
around smelling like an armpit all day.

First thing I usually wash with the soap is my arms. They're easily
accesible and their long length is good for working up a lather. From
there, I give the gut a good washdown and then tackle the pits. Some
people like to shampoo their armpit hair but that's just fucking
disturbing. Not all hair needs to be conditioned, although a nicely
conditioned set of pubes can be pleasing to the touch.

Once the upper body is clean, I hit the legs. I don't usually wash my
feet unless I pissed in the shower. Then I might give them a scrub to
make sure my urine isn't clogged between my toes. At this point, I
wash my face and then rinse my hair and whatever is soapy.

Once I'm rinsed, I put some conditioner in my hair and get to washing
my junk. I always wash my nuts first for simple reason that I don't
want to wash my ass and THEN my nuts. In that instance, you're
basically stink palming your own sack, and who wants to do that?

Normally, the Irish Spring is more than adequate for getting my
Feldman clean. But sometimes the soap runs low and you have to get
creative. Shampoo can make a fine nut wash and leaves your pubic hair
soft and vibrant. Some bath gels and body soaps work well also but
again, be wary of the fruity stuff, lest you have to explain to some
lady why your nutbag smells like lavender raspberry. Homo.

Once the pouch is rinsed, its off to the ass. The most important
thing about washing your ass is the lather. I can't stress that
enough. If you go to work back there with less than a full hand of
soap, you're basically molesting yourself in a really gay way. Plus,
you'll have to do it all over again and your hand will stink. Trust
me, lots of lather. And when you're done, for Chrissake, wash your
hands. One of them was just up your ass.

I go through this process every day. Why? Because its seven o'clock
in the morning. I'm lucky if I can remember where I'm supposed to go
to work. I don't want to forget something and realize too late that I
forgot to wash my nuts. That's no good for anyone.

Yeah, [I'm] Right

I get abnormally attached to bands I really like.

If I meet someone who doesn't like one of the chosen ones, I don't even know what to do or say to them. Like they're just irrevocably fucked up and broken somehow, and if I engage them I'll get some of their stupid and shitty taste in music on me. , then I won't know what to do with my awesome record collection. Yeah, I call my CDs records. Go fuck yourself.

Anyway, this would be great if I heeded my inner voice, turned heels and ran. But the populist in me decides that I'll gently explain to this wayward soul the error of their ways, and show them the path to righteousness. That is, I browbeat some poor schlub who made the (unbeknownst to them, naturally) sad admission that they don't really like The Ramones or Morphine. Or the guy that tells me how much he loves the blues, then asks how the solos in Son House songs are, if they 'rip', and if I've heard the new Gary Moore record.

"Do you mean that you've never really heard them, or that you just don't like them?" Because I'm such a decent guy, I always give my prey an out, which they NEVER take. Fucking idiots.

I try all kinds of angles, approaches that would make any music geek proud. I place The Ramones in their proper historical context for the benefit of a guy who wasn't even born until 1984. Suggest that he regard them as a much-needed antidote to Foghat and Foreigner and The fucking Eagles - The Country Monkees as Mojo Nixon so eloquently dubbed them. But this actually makes it worse, because now he hates The Ramones and has no idea what I'm talking about. Plus, he thinks Green Day invented punk, and listens to rap anyway. Its like describing the ocean to the blind.

Finally I give up. "Leave them to their fate", I figure, thanking Patton Oswalt for a really great mantra. Of course I can't leave well enough alone and allow my mantra remain so generously forgiving and quizzically devoid of condemnation, so I add:

You deserve to listen to bad music. I hope you fucking go deaf, you're not using your ears for anything worthwhile anyway, and they (your ears) probably hate you for it.

The title of this post is a paraphrase of a Meters song, "Yeah, You're Right".

If you don't like The Meters, then fuck you.

Movie Magic and the Wachowskis

The following is an actual conversation:

11:00:28 AM
Klagon: Did you hear about the wachowski brothers and their new technological innovation for Speed Racer?
11:00:45 AM Hambone:
super slo mo camera pans?
11:00:47 AM Hambone: wait
11:00:50 AM Hambone: that was the Matrix
11:01:02 AM Klagon: no, the all in focus thing
11:01:14 AM Hambone:
i have not heard of this
11:01:15 AM Klagon: I think its sort of like the double camera rig in 300
11:01:36 AM Klagon: but they will have the background and foreground in focus at the same time
11:01:49 AM Hambone:
ok
11:01:51 AM Klagon: not just to flip between the two for neat battle scenes
11:02:02 AM Hambone:
why is that revolutionary?
11:02:07 AM Klagon: I'll try to find the place i read about it
11:02:11 AM Hambone:
leave the camera wide and it stays in focus
11:02:28 AM Klagon: I suspect that I'm not quite doing the description justice, jack-tool
11:02:51 AM Hambone:
no, the way you describe it sounds like a bunch of PR bullshit, dickmuncher
11:03:08 AM Klagon: No, there's more dickpants.. lemme find it
11:03:09 AM Hambone:
so why don't you give it some teeth like you do the boys in the truckstop bathroom
11:03:18 AM Hambone: cocklover
11:03:34 AM Klagon: Like the Wachowskis aren't going to pull some cool shit that costs a lot of money?
11:03:48 AM Klagon: They might make crap movies but they know how to spend a buck to get it looking good
11:04:09 AM Hambone:
but in the end, it's still a crap movie
11:04:22 AM Klagon: http://www.firstshowing.net/2007/08/26/the-wachowskis-speed-racer-using-revolutionary-full-focus-cameras/
11:04:22 AM Hambone:
if my shit is pretty, are you going to spend two hours staring at it?
11:04:32 AM Klagon: is it all in focus?
11:04:38 AM Klagon: or slow motion?
11:04:41 AM Klagon: then maybe
11:04:42 AM Hambone:
yeah except for the underwater parts
11:04:52 AM Hambone: they might be a little blurry
11:04:56 AM Klagon: does it have a cool black leather duster?
11:05:00 AM Hambone:
my shit wears capes
11:05:00 AM Klagon: then definitely
11:05:06 AM Klagon: just read the fucking thing
11:05:11 AM Klagon: will ya
11:05:46 AM Hambone:
susan sarandon broke this story?
11:05:50 AM Klagon: Yeah.
11:05:53 AM Klagon: How funny is that
11:06:15 AM Klagon: she was probably running from the iron bird
11:06:17 AM Hambone:
I bet she really nails the details when her quote starts out, "They're using some high def thing"
11:06:42 AM Klagon: Hey, this world of cameras and horseless carriages scares and confuses her
11:06:51 AM Klagon: lighten up
11:06:55 AM Hambone:
she's the frozen caveman slut
11:07:06 AM Klagon: Seen "Atlantic City"?
11:07:08 AM Klagon: great cans
11:07:14 AM Klagon: thirty years ago, anyway
11:07:24 AM Klagon: now they are nice paperweights
11:07:45 AM Hambone:
paperweights?  they're kneepads is what they are
11:08:03 AM Klagon: Paperweights is funny too
11:08:06 AM Hambone:
here's a good quote
11:08:08 AM Hambone: "The Wachowski's have said that they don't do movies unless they can achieve something great each time."
11:08:20 AM Klagon: yeeeaaaahhhh.. ummm
11:08:22 AM Klagon: no.
11:08:28 AM Hambone:
they're living off of ONE good flick
11:08:42 AM Hambone: gimme a break
11:08:45 AM Klagon: What was the one they did before Matrix
11:08:45 AM Klagon: ?
11:08:48 AM Klagon: Juice?
11:08:51 AM Klagon: with tupac
11:08:55 AM Hambone:
if you can't remember it, does it matter?
11:09:00 AM Klagon: No
11:09:16 AM Klagon: cant i just asss the question, dickadorer?
11:10:08 AM Klagon: Bound
11:10:14 AM Klagon: thanks imdb
11:10:18 AM Klagon: Lesbians
11:10:25 AM Klagon: why did they move away from that?
11:10:31 AM Klagon: hmm
11:10:51 AM Hambone:
i was making my point that these guys are glorified hacks who followed up a perfectly great sci-fi movie like the Matrix with two pieces of shit that made the "play on words" into a philosophy that made no sense whatsoever
11:10:59 AM Hambone: should have stuck with the lesbians
11:11:06 AM Klagon: I'm not disagreeing at all.
11:11:11 AM Klagon: Matrix was great.
11:11:19 AM Klagon: But the others were total shite
11:11:24 AM Hambone:
Oracle: "Do you want a piece of candy?"
11:11:24 AM Klagon: Dicks
11:11:30 AM Klagon: there is no candy
11:11:35 AM Hambone:
Neo: "Why would you ask if you already know the answer?"
11:11:43 AM Hambone: Oracle: "Because you still have a choice."
11:11:57 AM Klagon: why are you quoting that shit to me?
11:11:58 AM Hambone:
huh?!?!?
11:12:03 AM Hambone: because it's terrible
11:12:06 AM Hambone: and it upsets me
11:12:07 AM Klagon: oh.
11:12:09 AM Klagon: right
11:12:11 AM Klagon: that is funny
11:12:12 AM Hambone:
he can't act to begin with
11:12:19 AM Hambone: then you feed him that shit
11:12:20 AM Klagon: they also wrote "Assassins"
11:12:29 AM Klagon: with Antonio Banderas and Stallone
11:12:32 AM Hambone:
and it's bad for the general public to be exposed to
11:13:12 AM Hambone: what a piece of shit that was

Netiquette

10:42:54 AM Klagon: there are no rules
10:42:56 AM Klagon: other than those I make
10:42:58 AM Hambone:
and who says fucking curtsy anyway?
10:43:03 AM Klagon: I don'tknow
10:43:06 AM Hambone:

10:43:34 AM Klagon: get it right
10:43:47 AM Hambone:

10:43:52 AM Klagon: when I love a cock, its with all due social grace
10:44:17 AM Hambone:
you really should be polite to cock, lest you make it angry
10:44:26 AM Klagon: No one wants angry cock
10:44:31 AM Klagon: that's how bad things happen
10:44:36 AM Hambone:

10:45:27 AM Klagon: Everyone's in battle formation
10:45:46 AM Klagon: Vengeance might be one of my top 5 favorite words
10:46:01 AM Hambone:
Vengeance?
10:46:02 AM Klagon: It looks like exactly what it means
10:46:05 AM Klagon: Vengeance
10:46:14 AM Hambone:
for it's meaning or it's presentation or both?
10:46:22 AM Klagon: all around
10:46:32 AM Klagon: withers to brisket, its a classic

10:41:39 AM Hambone: for a good couple of minutes
10:41:43 AM Hambone: maybe not minutes
10:41:47 AM Klagon: That settles it, I am referring to my sack as "My Feldman" from now on.
10:41:54 AM Hambone:

10:42:39 AM Klagon: lower case, 'cause its a regular noun now
10:42:48 AM Klagon: because he punches her in the back of the head?
10:42:49 AM Hambone:

Addressing the Rabble

Good Morning.

I don't write about sports (not well anyway, and who cares that I hate them?), but I do crap about twenty times a day, so I guess it makes sense that I would write stuff here.

Joe Zawinul died this morning. If you don't know who that is, then I don't want to know you until you look him up on wikipedia.

See you later,
Klagon

Paid my dime...

Came in tonight to take my evening dump, which is usually a successful
affair. But not this evening. But hey, I'm writing anyway. Consider
it a freebie.

Not only do I hate the NFL for bumping off my beloved baseball from
the press and TV during the pennant chases, but now ESPN is airing not
one, but TWO Monday Night Football games. I mean, Jesus Christ, is
there anything that channel doesn't do to excess? I liked it back in
the days of Keith Olbermann and Dan Patrick doing the "Big Show" 11:00
PM Sportscenter. Hell, even the "where is he now" Craig Kilborne was
funny on the 2AM "feel good" edition, where we were convinced he was
drinking scotch before and during the show.

But now, with ESPN doing Monday Night Football and having a stake in
Arena League Football, they won't stop talking about it. I wouldn't
be so mad at football if it just took up the days it uses. Play
Sunday, play Monday. Talk about it Saturday and Tuesday. Hell,
that's generous. But people talk about that God damned sport every
freakin' day, like something different happened in Sunday's game that
you just discovered Friday.

it's the most important sport in our country and I guess that's ok
since the NBA has been a joke since Jordan left. But please, can we
practice a little restraint? I mean, it's one day a week. Give us a
break.

I watched that new HBO show "Tell Me You Love Me" last night. Whoa.
Ok, first off, I wasn't expecting testicles in my nightly viewing.
Boobies, sure. Some man ass? Not ideal but a fair trade off for the
boobies. But then I was staring at a guy's nutsack for quite some
time. And later, a couple is sitting in front of the TV and she
starts rubbing his junk in front of the camera and then they showed
him popping one off!

I know it's not just TV, it's HBO, but can they actually air this
stuff? And being a man in my early thirties, is it strange that it's
giving me the willies? I kinda want my porn on my terms, not thrown
at me out of left field from an HBO drama. And the writing wasn't
very good. The relationships were the typical problems you see in
every relationship drama, only now you get to see three or four of
them fall apart at once. And they made it a point to show every
actresses breasts, except the old psychiatrist lady's, which was the
one positive thing about the show.

All in all, watch yourself, and be careful with squeamish spouses. It
ain't tame.
