Qdoba > Chipotle
I'd like to make an announcement that many people will probably consider blasphemous. And that announcement is...Chipotle is garbage.
I'd seriously like to know what all the fuss is about. Chipotle has been quite popular amongst the American public for a number of years now and I still don't understand why. Has the company brainwashed people into thinking it's good? I've eaten there two or three times and I've never finished my meal. Why? Not because it filled me up...but because this was my reaction after eating it. Even one of my friends has said, "I'd rather get shot than eat at Chipotle." Now there's a bold statement if I've ever heard one.
I'd like to introduce you to Qdoba. Many of you have probably not heard of this place. Well let me tell you something...it's glorious. And it easily usurps Chipotle. Allow me to make an analogy. Qdoba is to Adrian Peterson of the Minnesota Vikings, as Chipotle is to Adrian Peterson of the Chicago Bears. For those of you keeping track at home, that's 1,657 yards on the season to 83. Ouch. Take a hike, Chipotle.
I can almost assure you that Joseph Hartwell will come in here throwing a fit, hurling heavy objects, cussing at the top of his lungs, swearing up and down that Chipotle is the greatest ever. Sorry my friend, sometimes you just have to accept the truth and free yourself from delusion. Qdoba > Chipotle. You heard it here first.

Songs In the Key of Ches
I decided to start a new feature on my blog regarding my roommate's singing. My roommate Ches sings pretty often...and very loudly at that. When he walks into the house, I'd say there's a 99.3% chance that he'll be singing. If you don't believe me, come on over to the crib sometime and witness for yourself. I'll gladly place a $20 wager on the chances of him crooning as soon as the door opens. I'm pretty sure the only time he doesn't sing when he enters the house is when he's talking to somebody on the phone.
I should probably add that Ches isn't the greatest vocalist in the world, and he usually sings songs that he has no business singing. For example...Shania Twain - "Man! I Feel Like a Woman". Just picture this guy singing this. How he even knows the lyrics to that song is beyond me. He also doesn't do it to entertain anybody. I guess he just has a thing for singing. Anyway, I'm going to make a note of posting the most ridiculous/obscure/preposterous songs that he sings. This might be a daily occurrence, it might be weekly, who knows. I'll have to pick and choose which songs I deem worthy of a blog post. One of these times, I'll try to catch him on video singing an asinine tune so you all can experience the madness for yourselves.
What song did Ches sing today?
Third Eye Blind - "Semi-Charmed Life" (in an English accent, no less)
Ronald Jenkees = The Man
Say what you want to say about this guy, but he's crazy talented and his music is great. The breakdown starting around 1:50 is ridiculous. I need to step up my piano game.

A Sneak Peak at Christmas Sweater Immortality
This fine piece of fashion will be in play on Saturday night for the 6th Annual Christmas Sweater Party.
I must admit, I'm not going as all out as I did last year. I just didn't feel as though I had the time or energy to construct such a classic outfit this year. Maybe the green pants (that fit a little too snuggly) will make another appearance, but that's about it. No matching socks. No fake glasses. No mock turtleneck underneath. I know you're bummed. However, I gotta say that the kittens on this year's sweater add a touch of class. Last year's sweater was so legendary that several people have asked to use it this year. Of course I had to grant their wishes because, lets face it, you just can't let something so spectacular collect dust in a closet.
I suggest you all find the ugliest sweater possible, head down to Sally's in Dinkytown on Saturday night and join us for the glorious event that is the Christmas Sweater Party.

The Agony of Defeat
My hopes of winning the championship in my fantasy football league died last night. I lost by 2.5 points in the semifinal playoff game. Two and a half effing points!!
My opponent was my roommate's brother, Brian. All of my players had played on Sunday, while Brian still had Donovan McNabb and the Eagles defense going on Monday night. I had a somewhat comfortable 43.5 point lead. I thought it would MAYBE be enough to squeak by and get a win. I thought wrong.
Monday afternoon, my friend Andy sends me a text saying, "Are you nervous? Between McNabb and their defense against the Browns...he could get 44 points." Thanks for the encouragement. Yeah, I was nervous. I didn't know which Donovan McNabb would show up to play. He's been a complete train wreck a couple times this season. However, he was going against the Cleveland Browns (an absolute joke of a football team), so it wasn't out of the question for him to have a huge game. It's difficult to know what to expect from a quarterback who, up until 4 weeks ago, didn't know that an NFL game could end in a tie.
So the game got underway, and of course the Browns did me absolutely no favors. Donovan lit them up and the Eagles defense basically shut them down all game. Brian needed 44 points...he got 46. Needless to say, I was outraged. Sometimes ESPN adjusts the scores overnight in case there were any scoring errors during the game. So I crossed my fingers and hoped that some sort of miracle would happen overnight and I would get the victory. Riiiiight. I checked ESPN.com this morning and the score still read 112-109.5. I even refreshed the page a few times just to make sure. Still 112-109.5. Shit.
I can't completely blame it on the Monday night game though. Like a dumb ass, I decided to change kickers this week. Why?? Who the hell decides to change kickers?? I replaced David Akers with Nick Folk. Folk got me 2 points, while Akers sat on my bench with 12. That brilliant move cost me the game and a shot at the championship. Smooth...REAL smooth. (Sidebar: It would be nice if Marvin Harrison manned up and stopped playing like the washed up bum that he's become. Only 3.2 points against a winless Lions squad? Really? Even Troy Williamson thinks that's pathetic.)
So go ahead and mourn my loss with me. It's a sad day in the fantasy football community.

Is It Spring Yet?
Ahhh yes, the middle of December...the time of year when it really starts to snow and temperatures drop below zero. Every year around this time, I find myself questioning why the hell I still live in this state. I absolutely hate winter...always have, always will.
Today I was talking with my friend Andy and I was saying how I didn't want to go outside because it was so damn cold. Andy's words were, "Man up! I'm outside everyday for recess for two hours." (No, I'm not friends with a little kid...Andy works at a school.) I couldn't believe they still made the kids go outside when it's this cold. In my day, we had inside recess when it got to be really cold. Andy then said, "I have the final call whether recess is outside or not. I hate inside recess, so I make the kids go outside every day." I don't know about you, but that sounds like child abuse to me. I think I'd much rather stay inside and play Connect Four than catch a mad case of frostbite. But hey, that's just me.
There is a plus to winter though. Last year, I went skiing for the first time since I was about 12. I went a few times and had a blast each time out. However, the weather was actually somewhat mild on those days. As much fun as skiing is, it's not enough to make me like winter. At this point, I'm pretty sure I'd be fine with never seeing snow for the rest of my life. Maybe one day I'll move somewhere else and have to complain about hurricanes or earthquakes instead of winter.
Jared Allen...The Man, The Myth, The Mullet
If you had to pick the best thing about the NFL, what would it be? The fact that Adrian Peterson could break off an amazing run on any given play? Peyton Manning's ability to mount a 4th quarter comeback? Randy Moss making spectacular catches look easy? If you picked any of these, you would be wrong, my friend. Jared Allen's mullet is far and away the greatest thing this league has seen in a while. Don't get me wrong, I certainly don't condone the mullet as a haircut. However, I have made an exception for #69.
Jared Allen is the highest paid defensive player in NFL history. Would you know that by judging his haircut? Not a chance. Writer Bill Simmons from ESPN.com put it best when he wrote, "Did Jared Allen tell his barber, 'Make my hair look exactly like Nic Cage in Con Air?'" The thing that makes Jared's mullet even better is the fact that he also has racing stripes shaved into the side of his head. One stripe for each sack he's gotten. For those of you keeping track at home, that's 12.5 sacks/stripes thus far this season. This guy has the gall to walk around in public looking like this. And for that, I applaud him.
Most importantly, Jared Allen has 3 rules that people must abide by if they have a mullet...
1. In everything you do and wear, you have to highlight your mullet.
2. You always have to respect another mullet.
3. Sleeves are optional.
I don't know about you, but he gets my vote for MVP based solely on this.
Jizz In My Pants...An Instant Classic
All I can say about this song/video is...EPIC. From the creators of "Lazy Sunday" and "Dick In a Box", the masterpiece "Jizz In My Pants" is born. Is it just me or is the beat very reminiscent of something Timbaland would make? Justin Timberlake's cameo is hilarious, the facial expressions throughout are hilarious, this is pure comedy. The great thing is the song is so catchy that I wouldn't be surprised if I heard it in the club.

That's Hot
I'm not even going to comment on the improper grammar on the above shirt. I just needed a photo that said something about being hot.
Have you ever noticed that when it comes to a female's looks, guys and girls have completely different opinions? I certainly have. Girls always think other girls are pretty, when really that's just not the case. For instance, almost every female I've ever talked to thinks Julia Roberts is gorgeous. Sorry ladies, she's not.
What I don't understand is why so many girls claim that all/most of their female friends are attractive. That's simply not possible. Now I can understand that they don't want to be mean or hurt anybody's feelings. So if I ask a girl if one of her friends is attractive, it's understandable if she says "Yes." What gets me is when a girl will go out of her way to point out that one of her friends is attractive, when the exact opposite is true. I have a female friend who is notorious for doing this, but I'm not going to name any names.
On a few occasions, this friend has tried to set us guys up with one of her friends. Of course before meeting said female, my friend will elaborate on how gorgeous she is. So when the meeting actually takes place and the girl isn't as fine as advertised, it leaves us looking around and thinking, "So where is the gorgeous one?" I'm not trying to be mean, I'm just being real. Guys and girls have completely different takes when it comes to defining what makes a female good looking. All I'm saying is that when a girl is trying to set up a guy with a friend who she thinks is "hot," the guy should proceed with caution.
I Put On For My City
After another hiatus, I'm back. How giddy are you?
Anyway, here's a video of a little girl rapping Kanye's verse from "Put On". Not only is it hilarious, but it makes you wonder what kind of parent takes a video of their young child cussing and then puts it up on Youtube. Apparently it was good enough for Kanye to post it on his blog though. I gotta say, the dancing is legendary.

Friday Five (808s & Heartbreak Edition)
With the release of 808s & Heartbreak right around the corner, I thought I'd dedicate this Friday Five to that album. I gotta say, I'm usually not a huge fan of the auto-tune sound, but I dig how Mr. West pulled it off. So without further ado...
Kanye West - Amazing
Kanye West - Tell Everybody That You Know
Kanye West - Street Lights
Kanye West - Robocop
Kanye West - Paranoid
Keep It Moving
I wasn't sure if anyone was really reading my blog, so I didn't update it for a while. However, I recently found out that there are people who actually check it out and use it as a means to pass time when they're bored. So I guess I'll get back on my blogging grizzly.
So onto my story. Some things just make you go WTF?!?!? The other morning I was driving to work and came to an intersection not too far from my house. The stoplight was red, so of course I stopped. I noticed a random ass guy standing in the middle of the intersection and I wondered what he was doing. Low and behold, he was directing traffic. The thing is, the stoplights were working just fine. The guy didn't work for the city or anything...he was just a regular guy directing traffic that didn't need to be directed. The light turned green and he signaled for the cars to move. The light turned red, he signaled for them to stop. Needless to say, it was quite odd and the only logical explanation is that he was high out of his mind. At least that's my guess.

Say What?
I know I can't be the only person who dislikes certain phrases or words. I'm not talking about derogatory or offensive words. I'm referring to words/phrases that just sound stupid and make me shake my head or roll my eyes whenever I hear them. If you use any of the following words/phrases, you may receive a look of disgust from me...
Stoked: This word just reeks of frat boy douchebaggery. The only time this word should be used is in a sentence like, "I just stoked the fire." And even then it's a bit iffy.
Chill: First off, I gotta say that most connotations of this word are acceptable. I only hate it when it's used in a certain context. This word is fine to use when saying something along the lines of, "I'm going to chill tonight." However, I can't stand when it's used to describe a situation. "That party was chill." I don't know, something just irks me about that.
Gotcha Question: Who the hell came up with this stupid ass term? Probably somebody who caught feelings after coming off like a moron in an interview. I can't recall this phrase ever being used before this election, but it's been thrown around like it's going out of style. Instead of "gotcha" question, why don't we call it what it really is..."make a politician sound like a jackass" question. Do we really need a term that refers to this? Probably not.
Maverick: Thank you, Sarah Palin. I can no longer watch a Dallas Mavericks game without thinking about how you used the word 42 times in each one of your speeches.
Do Work: This got old after the first season of Rob & Big. Hang it up.
Whatev: I think this is mostly a girl thing. But come on, are you really that lazy that you're going to leave off the "er"? I just can't get with this word. Whatev.
Hawt: If you respect yourself, you won't ever spell "hot" like this.
Buddy: This is something you call your dog, not your friend.
What's For Nutrients?: I threw this on the list just to get a laugh out of my friend Joe. I don't hate this question, I actually think it's pretty funny. It originates from when Joe lived with his older brother. Every day, Joe's brother would ask him "What's for nutrients?" instead of "What's for dinner?" And apparently his brother thought it was amusing. Upon further review, was it clever? No. Mildly entertaining? Maybe. Stupid as hell? Absolutely.
I'm sure there's more, but this is all I could think of for now. In closing, if you refrain from using any of the aforementioned words or phrases, you'll be okay in my book.
The Legend of the String Dance
Conan O'Brien's legendary string dance has made its way to the NFL...gotta love it

I'm about to head out of town for the weekend...but let me hit you with some good music first.

Lupe Fiasco - Me and My Sneakers
Raheem DeVaughn - Energy (feat. Big Boi)
Can't We All Just Get Along?
Am I the only one who is getting sick and tired of all of the whining, crying, pointing fingers, he said/she said, political bullshit? I'm getting a little irritated by commercials of candidates bashing their opponent. Maybe once in a while they could tell us what THEY'RE going to do if they get elected, as opposed to what the other guy won't do. I'm also tired of everyone telling everyone who they should vote for. This goes for people on both sides of the fence. This doesn't mean that you shouldn't have an opinion. I have my own opinion. Am I going to vote for Obama? Yes. Do I think Sarah Palin is qualified to be a VP? Hell no. Should this effect your decision? Absolutely not. You should vote for somebody because YOU think they're the best candidate, not because some other schmuck told you to.
This post was inspired by political "discussions" that I have at work. My boss is a good guy and I get along fine with him. However, we don't see eye-to-eye when it comes to politics. He's a bit more conservative than the average person. I think it's pointless to get into political arguments because they just lead to people getting pissed off and nobody ever changes their mind. My boss seems to think otherwise. Almost every day, he complains to me about something the Democrats did...as if I'm a spokesman for them and can do something about it. Most of the time I just nod and go about my business. Sometimes I'll offer a comeback, but I try not to waste my breath. I'll be the first to admit that I'm not the most informed person when it comes to politics, so debating about political issues is something that I'm really not interested in doing.
If I want to be informed about this election, I'll do the research myself. I don't need Joe Bag-o-Donuts to tell me who I should vote for.
**Just a little side rant. Seriously, who the hell can stand listening to Rush Limbaugh?? My boss listens to that garbage every day. There are few members of the media that I find more annoying than him. Thankfully I have other listening options at work.
Anywho...see you at the polls on November 4th.

The Return of Terry Tate
You may remember Terry Tate as the Office Linebacker from those Reebok ads a few years ago. He ran around tackling everyone in his path and wreaking havoc in the office. After a long hiatus, Terry Tate has returned...and this time it's political. I'm proud to say that I actually own a Terry Tate: Office Linebacker t-shirt from back in the day. "THE PAIN TRAIN IS COMIN'!!! WOOO WOOO!!!! WOOO WOOO!!!"

Mark Rosen Loves Ghosts
If you listen to KFAN, you're probably familiar with the Power Trip Morning Show. Well this morning, they had a guy on to talk about ghosts, UFOs, and all that crazy stuff. Mark Rosen, the WCCO sports anchor, was also a guest on the show this morning. Rosen came on during the next segment and tried to talk about ghosts. However, during his introduction he got his words tangled up and all hell broke loose. One of the funniest things I've heard in a while. Take it away, Mark...

No One On The Corner Has Swagger Like Egon
One of the original Ghostbusters cars was up for bid in this eBay auction. Can you imagine the amount of swag you would possess if you were driving this car? It's a shame the auction already ended...I was going to ask if anybody wanted to go in on it.

Hate the Packers? Good, Me Too
This post is kind of random. It's not like my squad is playing the Packers this weekend or anything. I was just thinking about how much I can't stand that organization. Now I'm a Vikings fan, so I'm obviously a little biased on this topic. That being said, I just have a hard time respecting anything associated with the Green Bay Packers. Namely their fans. It's fine to be a die hard fan of a team. I'm not knocking that. But Packers fans take it to a whole other level. Shall we proceed with the examples? Yes, lets.
#1) About a year or so ago, a friend of mine told me about an encounter he had with a Packers fan. Mind you, this was when Brett Favre was still with the team. So this friend of mine tells me that one night, one of his pals asks him if he wants to go out for some drinks. My friend asks what the occasion is. The guy responds, "We're going to celebrate Brett Favre's birthday." Disgust. Celebrating Favre's birthday? Have you no shame? I'm positive that even the biggest Patriots fan doesn't celebrate Tom Brady's birthday. Yet somehow, Packers fans find this type of behavior acceptable. I hope my friend severed all ties with that individual after that conversation.
#2) How about the story about the 11 year old kid who wore a Brett Favre jersey every single day for 4 years? No that's not an exaggeration. It's not like he wore it a lot and it just SEEMED like he wore it every day. He DID wear it every day. What the hell is wrong with people? The kid's mom washed the jersey every two days and would mend it when it started wearing out. The kids at his school must've thought he was a dirtball of epic proportions. Or maybe not. Considering they were most likely Packers fans too, they probably thought the kid's style was fresh. If I were the mom, I would've burned that old haggard jersey long before I mended it. Be a responsible parent for crying out loud!
#3) This is one of my favorites. A man was arrested for taping a Packers jersey to his 7 year old son. Again I ask, what the hell is wrong with these idiots? Is it really that serious to root for your squad that you'll tape a jersey onto your kid, who probably knows little to nothing about football? "Dammit son, you're wearing this Favre jersey and cheering for the Packers whether you like it or not." Absolutely pathetic.
#4) They wear cheese on their heads. CHEESE! Yeah yeah, fans get dressed up and wear silly stuff all the time. But cheese?? Wow, the intimidation factor is off the charts. Watch out, the cheese might get you. SMH
#5) Although the Vikings/Packers rivalry isn't quite the same without Favre, thank God he's out of the division now so we don't have to hear the commentators ride his jock so hard anymore. The obvious joke is John Madden's man-crush on Favre...so I won't even go there. The most asinine statement that I ever heard about Favre came from somebody else. Last year, Chris Berman had the audacity to say..."Rooting for Favre is like rooting for America." I don't remember my exact reaction when I heard this, but I'm pretty sure it involved hurling an object at the TV. You heard it right folks...Brett Favre encompasses all that is America. *Pukes*
GO VIKES!!

The Kick Is Up...And It's......
NOT EVEN REMOTELY CLOSE! I've seen some pretty ridiculous stuff in the NFL, but on Sunday I witnessed one of the most absurd things I've ever seen in a football game. As the first half of the Raiders/Chargers game was winding down, the Raiders had the ball on their own 41 yard-line. With seconds left on the clock, the Raiders call a timeout. Conventional wisdom tells us they'll heave up a prayer and hope for a touchdown. I mean, all they need is a 60 yard bomb and Jamarcus Russell can throw that from his knees. That's what they'll do, right? WRONG!!
Here comes kicker, Sebastian Janikowski. You cannot be serious! A 76 yard field goal attempt?? Lets back up for a second. The longest field goal in NFL history is 63 yards. Hell, most kickers have trouble kicking it more than 50 yards. But we're supposed to believe that Sebastian Janikowski is about to hit the mother of all field goals? I know he can boot the ball, but come on now...just look at the video and see how far that is...he's kicking the ball from their own 34 yard-line for crying out loud!! Needless to say, the ball didn't even make it to the end zone.
The only logical explanation for this is that head coach Lane Kiffin knew he was about to get fired anyway. I'm sure the conversation went a little something like this...
Offensive Coordinator: "What do you think? Hail Mary?"
Lane Kiffin: "That would make too much sense. We're gonna blow this field goal record out of the water. What are they gonna do? Fire me?"
Yes Lane, that's exactly what they're gonna do.

Unsolved Mysteries
The following is a true story and took place on the evening of Tuesday, September 23, 2008.
If you know me, you probably know that I have two roommates named Ches and Olvin. If you don't know us, you're probably thinking, "What the hell kind of names are those?" But that's beside the point. So the other night, I'm upstairs working on a paper for school (cuz I'm so studious) and Ches is downstairs watching TV. Olvin is gone at this point. During a commercial break, Ches decides to run down to the basement real quick to get some laundry started. This is the conversation that took place when he came back up...
Ches: (Yelling upstairs) "Did Olvin just come in and then leave?"
Me: "No, what the hell are you talking about?"
Ches: "The back door is wide open."
(The door that Ches is referring to is the door that we usually use to go in and out of the house.) Back to the story...
Me: "Are you sure you didn't just leave it open?"
Ches: "I'm sure. When I was in the basement, I heard someone open the door and walk around."
Me: "That's weird. I didn't hear anything."
Right about now we're still thinking it was Olvin who did it. Olvin comes in about 10 minutes later and we ask him about it. He said it wasn't him. So at this point, we're all just like WTF??
About 20 minutes later, Ches realizes that his laptop is gone. He had left it in the living room when he went down to the basement and it was now missing. Then a little later, we come to find out that his iPod and a backpack that he had left in the kitchen were missing as well. So lets get this straight...some random ass person walked into the house, didn't make enough noise for me to hear them, grabbed some shit, and then was gone like a thief in the night (literally)...all within the span of no more than 2 minutes. Not to mention they left the door wide open...come on now, at least shut the door so bugs don't get in the house. My intuition tells me that the culprit recently watched Three Ninjas or Batman Begins and learned how to get their sneak on.
Is Unsolved Mysteries still on TV? I think I'm going to submit this story to them so we can get to the bottom of this. I hope they get somebody good to re-enact the crucial role that I played in all this. I guess the moral of the story is don't ever go down in your basement to do laundry. Either that or just keep your doors locked. One or the other.

My name is JORDAN, J to the O-R-D-A-N...ok, so that doesn't work quite as well as HOV...but you get the idea. And if you have no clue what I'm referring to, then step aside with your wack swag. So I've decided to do the mature thing and make a blog. Wow, I'm so grown up, right? I never really thought I'd get into this whole blogging business, but then I remembered that I'm a pretty cool guy and people obviously want to read what I have to say. You'll see...the popularity of this blog will skyrocket...which will be evident when there's 0 comments on each of the posts. But you know what, I'm gonna keep on posting cuz I feel like it, dammit. So what will this blog consist of? Well I'm glad you asked. Basically this is about whatever the hell is on my mind at the time...whether it's the music I'm feeling at the moment or stories of the tomfoolery I encounter with the people I know. So go ahead and bookmark this page cuz it's going to be awesome...no really, it is...I promise.
PS. I'd like to send a shoutout to Firefox for freezing on me the first time I tried to post this, which caused me to have to re-type the whole thing. Thanks!
