Things that Suck: A List in 5 Parts

I know you've come to rely on my impeccable taste to lead you to all things cool and wonderful, but it can't always be Mad Men and Shia LaBeouf here at The Watchword. Here are 5 things currently working my nerves (as the awesome ladies of Sassy used to say. Oh, Sassy. How I miss you so):

1. Crappy Radio - Once an ardent ipod listener, I've recently returned to the radio, only to learn San Diego radio is really shitty. How many times must we hear the new Gavin Rossdale song before we can all agree it blows? Once was enough for me.

2. Brett Farvre - I love Brett (no one looks better in a pair of Wranglers), but I'm seriously disappointed in this whole coming-out-of-retirement thing. What's the deal with millionaires overstaying their welcome? Go enjoy life on the gulf and stay there, crazy.

3. Boredom - This may go down as one of the least interesting summers in the history of my wonderful and exciting life (with one or two notably interesting exceptions). I actually said to someone the other day, "I'm tired of TV." Maybe I should try going outside? *shudder*

4. Work - I have a pretty sweet gig, but work in general, like, as a concept, really sucks. Tony Bourdain was in Uruguay this week and visited a little beach commune where people still barter for goods and live without traditional modern conveniences. It looked very tempting. I could hang out on the beach and do nothing for the rest of my life. Especially if Tony would come visit every once in awhile.
