ToobLippe is getting older!

I am getting older!

Man, I’m fast becoming an old fart. I used to be the first one at the party, and the last one to leave.  I was on the ball with all the latest TV trends. Today in my 35th year, there are many things that irritate the living crap out of me. The things that irritated me in the past, I now find very entertaining indeed. ToobLippe is undeniably an old fart. I think this change can be attributed to either one of three things:

  • I am getting older, and older people are just negative OR;
  • As you get older it gets easier to see the bullshit around you OR;
  • As you get older, your tolerance for bullshit reduces exponentially

How did this happen?

I was thinking about blogging topics today. I wanted to write about something controversial to get ratings up. (Older not dumber ok!)  As I thought about possible topics, I realised that there are a lot of things on my list, and I realised that something was wrong.

Real TV pointed me in the right direction!

I have also been watching a truckload of independently produced TV shows from America i.e. Louie, Lucky Louie and Penn and Teller.  I think these independent shows made me realise how shallow normal TV have become. (Independent TV is not censored by the mainstream companies, and content is as is, and normally not Political Correct) These independent shows due to their sheer brilliance made me realise how fucking retarded normal TV have become. (They also swear a lot in these independent productions – and they actually do call a spade a fucking shovel! Counter argument could be that to swear in a show is shallow – I suppose so! I am also trying to mimic my new TV heroes by swearing a lot in this post).

So I decided to let you know what currently pisses me off, and what I find to be total and utter bullshit!

I now consider myself to be one of the “enlightened ones”.  Where can I get an application form to join the Knights Templar?

ToobLippe’s list of things that pisses him off and he wishes it didn’t piss him off:

  • Greys Anatomy – Thank God this one is done for now. Everyone has been “pomped” by everyone. Luckily in the last episode some culling took place. New blood for that bunch of immoral in-breeders will probably be introduced in the new season.
  • South-African Idols – When I heard the theme music last night I puked and had to take a shower. Ok Gareth Cliff might still be there, but Mara! O fuck no!
  • The QUIET Julius Malema – He is no fun quiet. Please speak up Mr. Malema and piss us off. It motivates the people next on my list…
  • The “We are leaving the country to have a better life for our child(ren)”- bullshit story – Come on guys you know it. All of you have real, hidden reasons why you want to leave. No problem in leaving, just don’t feed us your bullshit story. Just say: “I am unhappy , and I hope a new country will make me happy because they have free health care and they have good manners there.” (To all my friends that want to leave -  I exclude you from this list ok, we have had this discussion in the past) (To all my friends that came back from over there, thanks for sharing this insight with me!)
  • Metro Cops – We need to remember they were called Speedcops in the past.  If you live in Randburg, you will know what a harassing bunch of wannabe’s they became as they trained their special SWAT forces for the world cup. (I love the SAP though.  Note – I came to the conclusion that I dislike the Metro Cops and love the SAP during a recent stint in jail for a traffic related offence. Jail is not a cool place)
  • Jail – I fucking hate jail
  • Bakkes Botha and Butch James – Ok I don’t hate them, just very disappointed in these two gentle guys that seem to do it every Saturday and get away with it. Luckily overseas contracts might keep them away for a while. Percy came back a better player. Didn’t really work out for Butch, so hopefully Bakkies will come back being able to balance a book on his head and drink his tea with his pinkie up.
  • The Dis-Chem strike – Ok, I have written about it before
  • Ab-Flex – Grow abs while you piss!!!. Magic!
  • People that claim to speak to the dead – TV shows everywhere, even in Afrikaans. Now if you believe in this shit, wake up and take a good look in the mirror, or is it you in the mirror?
  • It used to be Mini -Bus Taxis – Now it is drivers in general. We are shitty drivers in SA. I hate my own driving and yours! (To be honest I am the kakkest driver I know.)
  • Metro Cops – just wanted to get the point across. Maybe not all of them. Just the ones with the extremely fat asses. Ok all of them!
  • Desperate Housewives – Please refer to Grey’s Anatomy
  • That new little dude that looks like Mannemerak that reads the Afrikaans News on SABC – Looks like someone is poking him from behind. He does have beautiful pronunciation though
  • And lastly – People that cannot spel – Laaik me

What pisses you off? Any comments….?

Things I love other than my wife?

  • My IPhone
  • Getroud met Rugby. Botha for president
  • …yup, that’s it.

I am old fart, I know, but I have an iPone. It is an iPhone 3…Not an iPhone 4.
