I am SO going to hell.
The place where I work doesn’t allow solicitation. I never understood why until I realized it’s like the children’s book If you Give a Mouse a Cookie. I learned my lesson after the first time since they travel in packs when it comes to office buildings it seems. Today I felt really bad for turning away a woman, ok I didn’t. I found her “goods”, a Valentine’s Day gift, to be very sad. I’m sorry she and her husband can’t work because of health issues, but come on. I made better Valentine’s Day gifts when I was in kindergarten. She only accepted cash so we all know it’s not going to be on her taxes since people on disability can’t work/earn money and get full benefits at the same time. Normally I would have bought one to help out, but something seemed very wrong. Her story didn’t seem right. I rarely get that sort of feeling when people tell me their sob stories, but when I do I go with it since I’m usually right.
While this has nothing to do with the above I just had to mention it. I hate commercials. Sometimes they can be entertaining, but otherwise I only watch stuff I’ve DVRed so I can skip through them. Rarely do I find myself in a position where I watch something “live”. Has anyone seen the KIA commercial where they sing the song from Sound of Music? I will now never ever buy a KIA. Even if the choice is a KIA and riding a bike, I’ll ride the bike. Ever since I first saw it I couldn’t help, but cringe. I mean it was almost as bad as when I saw the commercials for Last Exile on G4 (Tech TV back in the day) and they kept pronouncing Claus’ name wrong. My boyfriend would laugh as I screamed at the TV, “His name is CLAUS! Like Santa Claus! You speak English for crying out loud get it right! The Japanese people can why can’t you?” The new Carl’s Jr. commercial for their milk shakes have also made it impossible for me to listen to that song without thinking of two white guys trying to shake a cow. What happened to the old Carl’s Jr. commercials? Not the over the top too sexual ones, but the “old school” ones. /sigh
My favorite commercial by far has to be one for Volvo. They’ve been showing a lot with the theme “Who would you buy a Volvo for?” My favorite has to be where the dad is picking up his little girl and she’s telling her story and going non-stop. He doesn’t want to miss a second of it, but she’s just not stopping. It makes me smile. It also reminds me of me when I was little. It also makes me feel bad for my mom for having to put up with me. I told her stories constantly of my day, ones I made up and of dreams I had the night before. Then again when I showed the commercial to my boyfriend and said, “That was me as a kid!” Without a second thought he said, “Not much has changed huh?” Maybe that is why he quit asking how my day went without me asking how his went first...
I read that book if you give a mouse a cookie. They have another version... If you give a pig a pancake. I use to read those books to my kids when they were little.

There are a lot of fakers out there.. that's why my parents do not pity beggers most of the time.. You won't go to hell with that.. Come to think of it, I've never seen a Volvo advertisement on the Malaysian TV before! I wonder how it's like.. I want a Volvo but my dad will never buy me one. I tell everyone how my day so without them asking, that's why I have a blog XD
