DB's Comments

=(

I can understand cleaning it up and maybe adding a few more American characters, but it's sad that they're taking away the jungle scene, that one was fun.

And adding Disney characters? I think that's rather ridiculous, unless they're going to keep to the original style.

I know a lot of people find that song annoying, but I think it's rather nice, and the style is very cute.

I remember the Pepsi Stuff, I never got anything, though. And I could have sworn the plane guy got away with it... Oh well.

(Methinks Pepsi needs to hire some new statisticians.)

I'm impressed because if I try to do more than one accent at a time my brain gets stuck. It's interesting to see the comments here, though. I didn't know there was a Seattle accent, but I've never been out there, either. I think her last accent was the most interesting because that sort of accent always feels unnatural to me.

I also realized she didn't do an "Ohio" accent... Which, as I've been told, is what people are trained with to have "no accent." (DJs and stuff go to school here for that, apparently.)

Ooh, I like it! Reminds me about Floyd Collins, who was a guy who died in Mammoth Cave and had his body shown and lost several times.

It also seems as though she's just using men as stepping stones to a successful family life. I think that's both degrading to men, marriage, and family life.

The only truth I see in "settling" is that society in general today holds standards too high for a successful life. Advertisements may teach you that tall/dark/handsome/rich or stylish/skinny/beautiful/rich is the answer, but that sort of thinking often leads to our high divorce rate.

And if you're only doing it for your bilogical clock, and not your heart, what happened to just having friends? I most disagree with her statement that "more important than love is marriage." I think that's a rather wasteful way to look at things; getting everything you "want" just because someone tells you so is wasteful.

The end of the article also reminds me of this comic: http://xkcd.com/314/

This sort of thing is really annoying. I may be only 19, but the fact I haven't dated anyone "yet" is definitely grounds for some teasing from friends. I don't mind so much, it's entertaining to be "the lady who's going go end up alone with a billion cats". (I really do love cats.)

However, the most annoying part is that they're making it sound like I couldn't be happy if that happened, which is a load of crap. I've had a lot of single older women role models in my life, and for that I'm grateful. They are independent, adventurous women and some of the BEST human beings I know. My gradeschool music teacher, my great-aunt, and my two of my favorite high school English teachers.

And none of them take crap from anybody. ;)
