<p>We should start a whole new thread…“Celebrities who should get their moles removed”</p>
<p>How about Christian Bale and his eye/nose mole?</p>
<p>Obama’s got that nose thing.
DeNiro (cheeks), Eastwood (lip). Madonna (lip), Julia Louis Dreyfuss (lip…usually covered with makeup). </p>
<p>When Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams are together, I can’t follow the movie…I just want to connect the dots.</p>
<p>The granddaddy of them all is Aaron Neville with the frisbee on his eyebrow.</p>
<p>Memo to Cindy Crawford: You wouldda looked better without it.</p>
<p>This wasn’t such a huge problem before there were 42" high-def tv sets.</p>
<p>I don’t get breast augmentation (sorry, guys)</p>
<p>^^I heard breast REDUCTION was more common in Brazil. When I showed the article to my husband (who’s visited there twice for week) he told me that it’s probably because the women tend to wear the skimpiest bikinis he’s ever seen.</p>
<br>
<br>
<p>I don’t either - and I’m a guy. I consider it a very unfortunate form of self-mutilation.</p>
<p>While we’re at it, Sarah Jessica Parker has a raised mole on her chin that should be removed. There, I feel better already.</p>
<p>Who I really don’t get? Renee Zellweger. Certainly a fine actress, but how can people say she’s pretty? She’s all squinty looking.</p>
<p>Language: “my bad”-- where did this come from?
Talk Show: Rachel Ray or the other NY buffoon Tony Danzig
Realty tv: American Idol, bachelor, etc-- drivel
Habits: chewing gum spit out for other to step-on</p>
<p>Being distracted by moles, especially little ones
Anorexia and bulimia
The “attractiveness” of unnatural thinness
Sliding patio doors with the screen on the inside rather than the outside (so, when one has left the door open with the screen closed, and then wants to close the door, one slides back the screen, thereby inviting all the evening’s bugs clinging to it into the house while one is sliding the door shut)</p>
<p>Going back a few posts…
I don’t understand the appeal of The Cheesecake Factory either. I mean, for cheesecake, I get it - but for lunch or dinner?</p>
<p>Commercials/advertising: using chickens in commercials to sell products; chickens are creepy, why would marketing people think this would make people buy their products</p>
<p>The thing about moles is that they are SO easy to get removed. Like you’ll see somebody get a $200 haircut, and spend a grand on an outfit, buy a Rolex, and get their expensive car all washed and waxed…all to make him/herself look attractive. Yet they have a big honking mole on their face. Forget all the other stuff…find a freakin’ dermatologist and spend 5 minutes getting the mole removed.</p>
<p>Another head-scratcher is when you see a 300 lb. lady spending tons of time and money getting her nails done in some exotic way. I feel like telling her, "Look, you could have the Baby Jesus tap dancing on your nails…it’s NOT going to make anybody forget you weigh 300 lbs.!! "</p>
<p>I think Sarah J. Parker got the chin mole removed. <a href=“This is London Magazine”>This is London Magazine; It was big news on the celeb web sites a few months back. I think she did it in the wake of her wearing that hideous acorn hat.</p>
<p>I don’t know what happened to Renee Zellwegger. In Jerry McGuire you could actually see her eyes. Then she lost her glasses or something and nobody’s seen her eyes since. When she was dating Jack White, she spent some time in the Detroit area, and there were lots of stories floating around her about her and some stuff she was up to. Maybe that explains it?</p>
<p>Why would anyone eat at Applebees?
Why would you wear a thong?</p>
<p>Ohh…I don’t get it when smokers throw their lit cigarette butts out the car window. Actually , I don’t get cigarette smoking.</p>
<p>Funny you should mention that. Last night at Applebees and my waiter leaned over and said he could see my thong…</p>
<p>I told him I saw their dancing chicken commercial, and rushed right down without changing into some boxers. That made him spit out his chewing gum, and I said “My bad!!”</p>
<p>Actually, I think some women wear thongs so that they don’t have a visible panty line. It worked for Monica Lewinsky. Bill Clinton was supposed to have been first attracted to Monica when she flashed the top of her thong at him. He was apparently a very difficult guy for a woman to get his attention, so it’s no wonder she had to go to such classy lengths.</p>
<p>I don’t get how at Burger King a cheesburger is a buck, but a DOUBLE cheeseburger is at least 2 bucks. All you’re getting is another hamburger patty and another slice of cheese, and it’s always AT LEAST twice as much.</p>
<p>I don’t get…
Football crazies
Gel pens
Gossip Girl
The Secret Life of the American Teenager
Fox News </p>
<p>& lots more. I’ll list them later. :P</p>
<p>rchhay, do you like Keith Olberman?</p>
<p>I never understood why sometimes two 12-packs of beer are cheaper than one case of the same beer (24 bottles/cans). I asked a guy at a liquor store, and he explained that the cardboard used to make a 12-pack is pretty cheap, but when you put 24 bottles/cans in a container, it has to be significantly stronger.</p>
<p>A while back, Quiznos had 3 sizes of sub: small, regular, and large. On the wall display, the “regular” size (NOT the LARGE size) had an arrow pointing to it saying “BEST VALUE.”</p>
<p>Also don’t get when they have clothes in sizes S, M, L, XL, and XXL, and the smalls are on the TOP shelf, then the mediums, etc. You’d think the smalls would be on the BOTTOM because the people looking for them would be lower to the ground…</p>
<p>I can’t say I do, Schmaltz. Why do you ask? I mostly watch NBC Nightly News…
(Although the question conjures up so many political “I don’t gets”) </p>
<p>I also don’t get…
Obama t-shirt wearers
Republicans who are so pro-American but so anti-Barack Obama, our President!
Twitter
Skinny jeans - esp. worn by males
How Northern/Southern California are so different</p>
<p>Any female of any age who would actually even speak to someone (let alone date someone even once) who wears pants below his print boxers and walks as if he’s carrying a load in his under – I mean outer - wear.</p>
<p>Permanently, willfully destroying your own hearing by listening daily to 5-trillion decibel “music.”</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I’m a SoCal native going to college in NorCal…and let me tell you, I might as well be OOS. I think a lot of people misunderstand how geographically huge CA is…we could literally be two (possibly three, depending on the division) states. It takes me anywhere from 7-9 hours to drive home, depending on conditions and traffic. And the weather? I remember once asking my dad why Frank Sinatra talked about California being “cold and damp” in “The Lady Is A Tramp”. He told me to just wait until I’d been to NorCal.</p>
<p>Now I get it. :)</p>
<p>And that’s just geographically. Culturally, the differences are wide and varied. Dialects (sorry to break it to you NorCal natives, “hella” is NOT a word!), styles, what’s “acceptable” sociopolitically and what’s not…the list goes on.</p>
<p>OOS? Haha, I only joined CC yesterday… </p>
<p>That’s definitely a good point, what do we have… the 8th largest economy in the world? Something crazy like that, I’m sure.</p>
