Surrender Smakk

Last Tuesday night, the Bunny & I decided to catch up on some tivo'd episodes of Big Bang Theory and How I Met Your Mother. (These are the best comedies playing on network TV right now in case you are not viewing.) In doing so, we discovered that one night's episodes did not record on the tivo due to power outage or something. So we hit up CBS.com to watch on laptop and they are no longer airing online. We then try Itunes and those episodes are not yet available. Then we just end up hitting google to find some pirate site out there that must have them. Success comes from a Korean webtv site that streams the shows perfect with only the Korean subtitles as a slight distraction. So everything seems perfect right?Not quite.

On Wednesday night I get to spend 4 hours in mortal combat with some Trojan virus that has inserted itself within my windows applications. It's one of those nice friendly strains that sends a couple hundred pop-up ads your way of similar products every time you go to any new webpage. I of course relay my nightly project to Big Wu and immediately start getting flooded from all the Crew with texts of Trojan condoms jokes. Finally after a $29 purchase of a virus exterminator, I get this little fucker under some control but can't get it totally eliminated. I think I have decided to declare surrender to Korea and will offer for complete elimination of the virus - our island nation of Guam. So please feel free to take back your cousin's property as a payment and send me a damn cure...

Black Friday Smakk
Last Friday morning, the Bunny & I got up at 4:30am to go out and join the other crazies for the shopping madness known as Black Friday. Our first stops were at Sam's Club & Wally World. Ok people...where's this recession thing? These places were packed wall to wall and at least 75% of the shopping carts had 1 or multiple flat screen tv's in them. How fucking bad can things be? These weren't hordes of people fighting for bread or gov't cheese. These were 42" plasmas flying out the stores like bottles of Captain at my house.
But then it all came clear to me. Per my recession theory from a couple weeks ago, this was obviously the Britney Spears factor kicking in. With Britney's new CD releasing this week, she will be all over TV for appearances thus giving the media something to focus on besides the economy. And all these shoppers were so confident that she would make some kind of spectacle that would lead to our economic recovery, they had to see it in High Def. So thank you again Britney from all of America.

Bad Form Smakk
A few synonyms of bad form include indecorum, impropriety, inelegance, infelicity and solecism. Basically, the meaning is when some one shows bad style in the form of some type of action. For example: While out golfing this weekend, we come up on a group on 5 golfers that offer to let us pass them since we are playing at a faster pace. LRod & I both hit strikes down the middle of the fairway. Then Big Wu smacks a long drive right down the middle also for the first time of the entire day. So when Yott gets up to hit his drive, Wu yells out to the other group that's letting us pass, "Hey you guys may want to watch out. He's been shanking shots all day." Bad form - yes.

Another good example would be the comments left by Anonymous on the previous Smakk post. So Anon - I can take all your same as always blah, blah 4:45am lonely guy comments that obviously derive from your Napoleon complex which has caused you to still stalk someone you dated over 3 years ago when you were still living at home and couldn't even pay for anything since you couldn't keep down a job, but the UT comments? Those digs would only really work if you actually ever attend Tech and not whatever dwarf house university you lasted at for a semester or two. But since you did bring it up, let me just say that you can't spell BCS without BS. Much like your comments...
