Who wants to hear it from me? So I'm going on vacation for a few days. Maybe longer. (Flying 'carbon neutral'..)
'Word'. (↓Language caution:)

Spreading ridiculousness?
Comment: I don't think too many people check out this blog regularly. I just kind of enjoy expressing a bit of what's on my addled mind -- for whomever. Publicly, but even if only for myself.
If you are reading this ...welcome, and thank you for stopping by.
A little over a week ago this entry (link) was posted here, under the tag 'ridiculousness' (etc.). (Definition above.) Pls. have a quick look via the link..
↓Now, this YT advert. from retail giant K-Mart appears, dated (on YouTube) 9/5/15. (I've seen it elsewhere on the Internet also..) Coincidence? Yeah. Probably... right?
(YT video link. No affiliation.)
...I'm spreading ridiculousness ...?
↓ Viewer/parental discretion advised. Many holiday shoppers can avoid the following (extreme situations, which are unusual) by shopping online. (Per 2013 U.S. census data (.pdf file linked), approx. 74% of the U.S. population has some form of Internet access. Nearly as many had high-speed access.)
There's no real need to kick-off the saturation-sell-job almost four months in advance of Christmas:

I'm new. They're kind of funny here though...
...Wasn't predisposed to enjoy this. (E.g., "Show biz kids" and all....Plus I'm close to being all grown up now.)
I'll have to watch more (of their 'parody reality' show) though. (Ref.: The first avail. video link further below):

Early 2016 update (..anyone somehow stumbling down this far here:) Patiently waiting for season 2. Meanwhile -- as I could never not...: Doing as Erin Foster commands↓ (ref. Twitter post below):
More: 'Barely Famous' season 1, episode 1, off-site link: http://www.vh1.com/shows/barely-famous/barely-famous-episode-101-barely-famous/1734710/playlist/#id=1734710
(↑FWIW (just one fan's first take): ..Upon watching a few season 1 episodes I really enjoy how the attractive/famous sisters energetically mock themselves. (The show is intended as a 'mockumentary',
I believe.) ..While it's completely obvious that they're fabulous in several ways.
(So much (parodying/self-mocking) in fact thatcredulity credibility is sometimes pushed well past the breaking point..) Worth watching I think; very funny segments (so far). Some hilariously awkward moments created.
...Maybe hard to believe any could be so superficial, but I am clearly not of their world. (Part of the aim of the show: To glimpse into that..) Plus I'd guess that 'trait' might be exaggerated for the show. One caution: The words "good clean fun" appear at the show's close. "Good clean fun" has changed much since I was.....
but who really cares.
Belated correction: 'Good Clean Fun' seems to be the name of the entity that produces the show...I think. Also, season 1's program videos are presently not available via the VH1 site, above. )

For Ohio, re-rename Denali: Mount Strip-mine
Ohio Republicans dig into another paramount issue and state their indignation:
Ohio remains a leading coal-burning state so we must acknowledge their sedimentary sentiments:
"Mount Mountain-top Removal": (a/k/a Mt. Slag Heap)
