I don't get...

(add your own)

... the uproar over the Kim K full nude photos. Ummmm, people do realize she did a full-nude Playboy photoshoot back in 2007, right? I mean, her nudies have been out for half a decade now (not even including the leaked sex-tape that is not photoshopped at all).    This is old news, people.

... the appeal to the bigger phones now.  Mom is trying out the Samsung note 4 and that thing is huge, and won't even fit into her pocket and is probably too big for clutch purses, lol.    And with her tiny petite hands, it looks really funny when she holds it.

I agree about the Kim K thing, as she did a nude shoot about a billion years ago. Her getting naked is not new! "One day her daughter is going to stumble across them.." uhm, really? Kim got famous for a sex tape. Lol.

I don't get why no one is excited about things like the Philae Lander on (ETA -not the moon, der...) a comet! I know I'm a nerd, but it makes me sad that my FB is filled with dumb memes, celebrity statuses, "be aware of McDonald's fries!" And NO SMART STUFF. My generation is saddening me.

Probably because it's on a comet.
 
I also don't get the appeal of huge phones or of anything even remotely involving the Kardashians.

Ahem. Yes, the comet. That not-moon thing in the sky.

I'm going to get some caffeine. Lol.

I totally agree on both points, OrangePixyStix ! Posing nude for money is what KK does. Just like a lot of other people. And the "she's a mother!" and "she's disgusting!" comments really piss me off.

lexxasaurus-- I have a large proportion of smarts on my FB. Don't worry, you have company!


Mine: I don't get peeptoe booties. It's either boots weather, or open-toe weather. Never both.

That's OK. When I first heard about it, my initial thought (before I'd had time to think it through was), "Wow, that must be difficult to do because comets move so fast."
Yes, much like everything else in orbit.

Confession - I want a huge phone. Lol

I don't get why people assume their time is more valuable than yours. I rearranged things yesterday to make a conference call that the host didn't even show up to! Annoyed!

I don't get why faux-leather items are the same price as real leather. $200 for a polyurethane clutch? No.

I agree about the huge phones. I have an iphone 4s that desperately needs to be replaced, but I like the size.

I don't give a shit about KK, and she can do whatever she wants. I was a little surprised she posed nude though, I guess because I didn't think she needed that desperate of a "career" boost yet.


I don't get people who are oblivious to personal space - the ones who sit right next to you when there are plenty of open seats, or are right up your ass in line, etc. I will admit I am a little obsessive about this, but still. Back the fuck off!

I don't get the large phones either. (Though I am the one who keeps contemplating going back to a basic flip phone...so there's that.) 

I don't get why all of a sudden I have four different friends who think they are photographers, and are trying to make it as professionals. My newsfeed is filled with their photos and I just keep looking them going, meh, I probably wouldn't pay for that...
