Johnny Cochran Is Dead

This morning, a very important lawyer and pseudo celebrity passed away. Some of you may know Johnny Cochran from the OJ trial. He was OJ's lawyer. And a damn good one, he won THAT case! He was a pretty cool guy. He also defended P. Diddy (ha ha) and won at that too. As a good show of character, he started doing a lot of pro bono, a bonus. Its like, "I can't pay for a lawyer. That's okay, here's Johnny Cochran. It sucks that he died. Johnny Cochran quote:
"The glove doesn't fit, you MUST equit!"

RIP Mr. Cochran

School administrators (suck)

Yes they do soooo much. They've gone on a power trip. They just want to keep taking away the very few rights we DO have as teenagers, one by one. We can't dress how we want. We can't read what we want. We can't THINK what we want. We especially can't SAY what we want, God Forbid. This atrocious act could be so DANGEROUS, why would we ever want to let people speak their mind? Or even joke around, that is just a foreshadow to DOOM.
Ridiculous.
And the worst part is, we can't do a thing about it. We mostly don't even NOTICE it at all, we're too busy trying not to 'violate' any of their ridiculous rules. Sometimes it even takes the loss of a very good friend to these power-tripping paranoids to wake us up to it.
Like it or not, the public school system is (not as slowly as we think) becoming a dictatorship. And we are just the voiceless saps along for the ride.

A very very betrayed feeling ranter

Music fans (suck)

The other night I was listening to the radio and everything sounded so... blah. So I decided to go online and discover new (to me, at least) bands. Amazon plays samples of songs, so I went there. I realized I had no idea what music was new to me, so I went to the suggested lists, where people gloat their 'amazing' cd collections...
and let me tell you, music fans, ESPECIALLY punk rock fans, are the meanest, most annoying and judgemental people EVER! All they ever do is bad mouth music that doesn't make it on to their 'acceptable lists' and the people that listen to them. I can guarantee you, they aren't as holy and all knowing as they think they are, they probably listened to all that music they're hating on like last year, until someone they wanted to impress told them it was made by sell outs, or 'not real punk,' or what ever other insult they like.
One band I noticed that was often dissed was Blink-182, which happens to be one of my favorite bands. I can admit, they have lost some of their former greatness, and its a bit shameful they make more off of merchandising than their music, but I do remember that I have liked them, and I know I'm not capable of playing or writing like they do, so I shouldn't judge them. Besides, people say they hate them for changing their sound on the last CD. What were they supposed to do, keep remaking the same songs?
Anyway, I am not one to put down bands I like just because other people are. I even stand by music I now realize isn't genius, or even bad. I will proudly stand and say it!
I HAVE LIKED BACKSTREET BOYS!
I LIKED THE SPICE GIRLS!
I KNOW EVERY WORD TO EVERY SONG ON THE GOOD CHARLOTTE CD!
and I LIKED THE NEW AND LAST BLINK - 182 CD!!!

and I still do. Every once in awhile I've been known to rock out to a Backstreet Boys CD in my headphones, even if I tell people its The Ramones.

STAND BY YOUR MUSIC!

THE GREATNESS OF OUR FUTURE LEADER, ABI BONNER!

It has been called to my attention that in the long life of my website, I have yet to praise the very reason we are all still on this Earth - ABI BONNER!
Yes, she is indeed the highest and most worthy being to ever grace us with her presence! Her stunning beauty radiates around her like a radioactive glow, her voice is that of an angel, and she is the most knowledgeable, all knowing goddess we could ever hope to recieve on this planet! (except for her sad mistakenness on the awesomeness of blink-182, but no one is perfect.) But Abi sure comes close. So us lowly peasants simply await the day of her coming in her pink el camino with the flower bed in the back to TAKE OVER THE WORLD!!!

I Love my phosphates, back off.
-My mom, when I offered her some all natural soda.

Near Death Experience! (Yeah, it sucked)

so i had quite the near death experience here.
I was talking to Brad anderson, and he said that he and jenny and his friend kyle were going to the promenade on wednesday, so i should come meet him. id been talking to kyle since about six months ago, and he seemed cool, just a little 'wild an crazy' (lol im a nerd) with minor drinking (ew) and pyromanic tendencies.
so i got there and kyle is this hideous beast in a creepy trenchcoat, and he kept lighting his jacket on fire and patting it out with his hands(!) and when he got bored he pulled out 3 pocket knives and started juggling with them. Jenny an i were horrifyed, and i kept leaning over her, going (HE IS CRAAAAZY! LIKE A MOOSE!!) and we were shaking in our little boots.

of course, he had to fall in love with me. (waaaaah! pity meeee!)

So last night I was online and he.... ASKED ME OUT!!!
Exact wording:
Kyle: So i wanted to ask you something
Me: ?
Kyle: um, nvmd.
Me: no tell me
Kyle:what are you doing at like 7 or 8 tomorrow?
Me: (IN STATE OF SHEER PANIC) um, actually, Kyle, I'm seeing someone. (LIES!!!)
Me: we sort of just got together last night
Kyle: oh, I shouldve expected that. Whats his name?
Me: uh he goes to my school, i dont thikn you'd know him
Kyle: I knew you'd be with someone. You are awesome and hott (2 T's! Hes so sweet...)
Me: Eh? ack not really
Kyle: u could get any guy u wanted (cha, any guy on his wing of the psych ward)
Me: thats nice of u to say.um, sorry again
Kyle: um, if you hadnt met someone last night, do you think your answer would be different? (jeez, is he like planning on kidnapping me in like a time machine???)
Me: eh, I don't think so... I'm really not into stuff like you know, violence and drinking, and you seem to be. (God I'm going to be murdered)
Kyle: I was just bored during the movie! (Oh good so whenever you get bored with me you are going to set me on fire)
Me: well u know, we only really ever talk online, since u go 2 SLHS
Kyle: I suppose. I'm going to fix myself a drink. (AAAAAHHHHH!!!! HIM CRAZY = VERY YES!!)

he is scary. i am scared of him. not only is he crazy pyro boy, he is also under some crazy idea that sane guys take intrest in me. lol

The Revolution of Condiment Containers

Today I was watching daytime TV and eating animal crackers like the cool kid I am when suddenly I became aware of a new revolution sweeping the wide world of condiments. Yes, folks, an innovative new lid for your mayonaisse (sic) has arrived that is made of plastic and has a little protector rim so you don't have to get your fingers all mayo-y when you make a yummy sandwich. You can also scrape your knife on it.
Does this qualify as a revolution? I think not.
Maybe a revolution for getting even more crumbs in your mayo. Ew. According to Emma, this is not gross. It most certainly is.
TOP 5 THINGS IT IS GROSS TO GET CRUMBS IN!!!!
5. Peanut Butter

3. Your mom
2. Mayo
1. Butter

Yeah, I'm cool.

What sucks - In music

Bands/ Singers that suck -

1. AVRIL LAVIGNE wins the sucky contest. Bad voice, horrendous lyrics, icky hair.
2. Ashlee Simpson is a close second. even worse voice, lyrics that actually include LA LA.
3. Christina - icky slutty whore. gives bad (okay, worse) name to teeny boppers everywhere.
4. Britney. need i say more?
5. Jessica Simpson - not acutally that pretty. no real problem with her, shes just annoying. and related to ashlee.
Are you seeing a pattern here?
6. Good Charlotte - Okay I'll admit I loved the lifestyles of the rich and famous CD when i first got it. It took me awhile to realize they are lameness sellouts and their new CD just proved how ridiculous they are.
7. Rap/R+B girls - Ashanti's song says 'baby' no less than 37 times. in 3 minutes.


More sucky music will be noted as it emerges.

Moving In

The new home of WHAT SUCKS TODAY is much better, if I say so myself.

* It is much prettier than its former home on stupid Angelfire. Angelfire is honorably the first thing that sucks today

*The place is quite airy, and roomy. More room to gripe.

*I shall update this site WAY more than its former counterpart.

ON WITH THE SHOW!!!

What WHAT SUCKS TODAY is all about

We (being I, Kayla) at What Sucks Today are here to provide the adoring public with a comprehensive list of things that suck in music movies and mass media, in school and study, and whatever else pops into my cute little head. ^_^
