Excursions in Contemporary Media

Good Idea: Remember how Alanis Morrisette had that hit song in the nineties called “Ironic,” where nothing described in the song is a very good example of irony?

Now, Alanis should put out an album where each song on the record provides misleading information about a different literary term. There could be a track called, “Metaphor and Metonymy are Basically the Same Thing, Right?” one called “Asonance is a Word My Teacher Made Up,” and one called “Foreshadowing” that’s just a bunch of stories from the past. 

Lastly, in the video for all the songs, she’s naked, and a really big, blurry dot covers up her hoo ha.

Bad Idea: You know how heavy metal band names often contain one harsh word like “rusty,” as well as a soft word like “chrysanthemum”? The result is a great variety of names, such as “Guns n’ Roses,” “Alice in Chains,” and “White Snake.” 

The search for the ultimate heavy metal band goes on to this day, but one name everyone agrees would be a bad heavy metal band name is “The Barry Manilow Funk-tastical Petunia Redemption Project.”

Random Thought:  Have you ever noticed that religion is a lot like a stripper? It approaches you all seductively, wearing an appealing costume of some kind, adorned with alluring perfume. Then it plays nice until it gets near your wallet, departing with a wad of ten-dollar bills.

Also, I tend to prefer the religions with big boobs.
