PTI… but I’m bored.

The world of professional sports stumbled out of 2009 and with the start of 2010 I’m still hitting the snooze button.

It’s like they decided to metaphorically go green by recycling all the most played-out “scandals” they could think of.

If one more weave-wearing, VH1 show craving potentially hermaphroditic bitch comes out saying she fucked Tiger Woods, I’m going to beat someone with a golf club.

Also, the puns have me wretching. No, I’m not going to join your Facebook group “Don’t call him Tiger, call him Cheetah.”

If you’re going to bash him, at least go for the fact that his wife is probably an 11 out of 10 and he decided to fuck like, 4s at best.

Oh, and when you have your affair – remember you’re not a billionaire. And the shut the fuck up.

The Eagles lost in the playoffs, again.  Eleven years of Donovan making sad face on the sidelines as he watches the defense roll over and die while Andy Reid gets ready to cough up “They played better than we did” – only to pretend they care about next year.

They don’t.

I don’t want to hear anything about Brett Favre this offseason… the only reason I’d accept them winning the Superbowl is because Adrian Peterson pulled me out of the Lance Bass fiasco of 2005. I was not bored in 2005.

Anyway, back to the Dullfest 2010. Mark McGwire… fuck you. I loved you for denying you took steroids year after year and now you not only had to go admitting it, but you cried.

When I was a little girl, I loved watching you smash a ball without moving your elbow too much, kinda hobbling around the bases because your upper body was WAY too big for the lower half.

Um, duh you were taking steroids. Who cares?

I’m getting rid of my Beanie Baby and erasing all those Big Macs I ate for you.

Where the fuck is Dennis Rodman when you need him… shouldn’t he renew his vows to himself or something?

Randy Moss isn’t mooning people anymore and Ron Artest is like Confessions of a Halftime Boozer.

ENOUGH. You can’t all be on the juice – some of you have to have balls.

You’re paid to entertain me, so wake me up when you collectively decide to suit up – and please, not in one you’d be wearing after being sentenced to more jail time.

Where’s Ocho… I want to go to the Waffle house.

Marsha, Marsha, Marsha

I’ve got middle child syndrome like it’s being filmed in front of a live studio audience.

While really not so much worse off than either of my sisters, I hoard every moment I’ve been so depraved of the things they’ve gotten – the new room (to themselves), the birthday parties where either Barbies or new puppies were involved and the general appreciation of their existence. I like to remind my family of such things in snarky one-line text messages while stomping around the mountains or in my lovely high-pitched shriek over what would otherwise be a “nice” dinner.

They tire of it, quickly. Which tells me I’m doing my job… so I keep at it. And do other stupid things, like dye my hair red… actually, the first time it was more like what-the-fuck orange.

There was some fun with Middle Child over winter break, too. My mom gets a big ol’ kick out of playing the “What celebrities my daughters look like” game. Here’s how it panned out:

Alyssa: Anne Hathaway, sometimes Sandra Bullock.

Jessica: Miranda Kerr… which is unsettling in how accurate that is.

Me: Well, I wasn’t so much pegged a celebrity as my Wii character… also unsettling in how accurate it is.

The Snark Before Christmas

T’was the snark before Christmas,
When, all through the house,
Not a person was sober,
Drunk on Famous Grouse.
The ladies asleep,
Jizz still in their hair,
As I crept out of bed,
And down, stair by stair.
Now under the tree,
Fallen off from the chez,
My 12-Pack of condoms,
And tossed off negligees.
But hark, do I see?
Do mine eyes deceive?
An unexplained gift,
On this Christmas Eve.
“Santa! He’s come!”
I yelled and exclaimed,
And danced, and pranced,
With no ounce of shame.
I picked up a note,
And read it with joy,
“Zachary, ho-ho-ho! You’ve been a very bad boy!”
My heart slowly sank,
With these words Santa wrote,
And my bones felt a chill,
Deep in my winter coat.
“You shameless lothario,
These women you’ve bed!
So for Christmas this year,
Not one more you will get.
I’ll teach you a lesson,”
He continued to scold.
“I’ll give you one crazy,
She’ll sure break the mold.
Her ass is as plump
As a ripe Christmas goose.
Her hair, red like holly,
Or bright Christmas fruit.”
“Oh no!” I cried out,
“Surely I don’t deserve!
Rapists or murderers,
But not this poor perv!”
With fear I did turn,
But to see standing there,
A girl, with an ass,
And the craziest hair.
My Christmas gift,
It appears, here to stay,
Is an unpleasant house guest,
In the snarkiest way.

—- Happy Holidays from the crew at A Couple of Snark —-
Love, Zack & Laura.

Snark Trooper

Thanks for nothing, airbags. Should have died.

Snarky Sorority

I had alot of free time on my hands today, so I decided to try something new, and I bought a porno from Comcast On Demand. And don’t act like paying for it makes me some sort of disgusting freak; paying for porn is no different than whacking it to uploaded Facebook pictures of girls in slutty halloween costumes…not that I do that. I’m sorry if this is news to you, ladies, but “schoolgirl” is no longer sexy because the short skirts make your legs look chunky and do nothing for your pancake ass, while the thick glasses emphasize your large ears, asymmetrical face and chubby cheeks, and the unbuttoned shirt that’s tied just above your waist simply draws stares to your protruding gut and ever so delectable muffin top.

Returning to the lecture at hand, this has to be the worst waste of $9.99 ever. I am currently watching a very fat gap-toothed girl with “rock” tattooed on one hand, and “roll” on the other vigorously attempting to pleasure herself, withuptempo jazz music featured as the soundtrack.

THIS IS NOT WHAT I PAID FOR. The film (I use the term film very loosely…as loosely as the cooches on TV are dangling) is titled, “Slutty Sorority”. You would imagine, that this film might have something to do with drunken co-eds exploring their sexual identities with each other after a night of raucous partying, culminating in a very sensual pillow fight, as they push the boundaries of their collegiate sexuality while Peter Frampton’s “Do You Feel Like I Do” echoes softly in the background. The description was way off, as well…here’s what it said:

Slutty Sorority Sisters: Hot Dorm Room Sex – These young girls are so desperate to be included in this exclusive sorority, they get nude and naughty for our cameras – and so much more!

Bullshit. I kid you not, this is merely a collection of some of the nastiest looking, has-been porn stars I have ever seen doing nothing but fingering themselves.

Uptempo jazz? Really?

Comcast, I want my money back.

Upper Darby Rocks

If ever you’re worried that a comedy show sponsored by the best local radio show isn’t going to be funny, just sit in front of a homeless guy who wandered in sniffing shitty beer and nachos – he’ll make sure to never laugh, for your sake, and point out EVERYTHING that could even potentially have the caliber to be funny.

You’ll know, because with every breath the comedian takes, he’ll say “Now, that was funny.”  With the same intonation over and over and over again.

It’s so helpful when you don’t have the ability to determine the difference between something fucking hilarious and the rest of your life.

Musings of a fat, bloated fish

That fish would be me.  Co-author of this website found the fattest, ugliest fish in my uh… mother’s psuedo-fiance’s giant fish tank and could only think of one name for her.

Laura.

So, some of my posts will just be devoted to my random musings of snark.  Because I have a lot to say – just in short bursts that have nothing to do with one another.

Think of it like a haiku with poetic license.

I love talking about myself.  It puts me and anyone unfortunate enough to listen in a compromised position, though… because most of the time, the end to my story really doesn’t exist because I just wanted to ramble.

If you’re a frequent visitor to a couple of snark, you’ll notice Zack has amended “I have a big ass” to most of my posts.

This is very true, though I have yet to conference with the Ying-Yang Twins about it.  However, I did knock a phone off of a desk last week with my ass… it was weird, because I wasn’t even that close to the desk.

I understand Facebook is a social networking site, but I’m sure it was not intended to be accessed like all users are in the first grade.

Without fail, everytime anything remotely pop-culture-esque happens, every single person I went to high school with needs to make it their status AND like everyone else’s who has the SAME EXACT ONE.

We know Michael Jackson died – your two cents is not appreciated.  Tiger Woods was in a car accident?  HOLY SHIT how would I have ever figured this without someone who I haven’t talked to in three years telling me this?

It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia is on?  Why don’t you update your status everytime you laugh at something Danny DeVito says… thanks, I’ll be refreshing my page all night and won’t even have to watch the show.

I can’t wait to delete that shit.

If I cared what you have to say, I’d fucking follow you on Twitter.  Duh – that’s where people care what you’re doing every 46 seconds.

Not really, but why don’t we make more media outlets conducive to making morons (MUCH like myself) feel like anyone cares?

Team No Standards

Last night, I was introduced to an elite group referred to as TNS…Team No Standards. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, I took the dive into Chubby Creek and set my sights on a fat girl. Before you judge me, know that my main motivation behind this was twofold:

1) A friend told me that a fat girl had given him the best orgasm of his life. And by friend, I mean Christian Troy on Nip/Tuck.
2) I was running interference on Ms. Egg McMuffin so a friend of mine could have his way with her slightly less fat and slightly more attractive companion for the night.

I don’t think I’ve ever had to work as hard as I did last night to get this girl to adjust her plans to work in our favour. After all that convincing, though, my intentions were very short lived, because the moment she opened her mouth, waves of regret crashed down upon me the way I’m sure waves of Hershey’s syrup crash down upon her jumbo sized Chunky Monkey dessert plate on a nightly basis. Weight can be lost, but stupidity is a little harder to cure.

At some point in the night, when I was so far past caring about anything this girl had to say, I overheard her mentioning how she and her friend were vegetarians because they were “against animal cruelty.” I piped in my response, “Could you please shutup, because it’s 4 in the morning, and I would like to be up at 9 so I can still get the steak sandwich from the McDonald’s breakfast menu.” I may or may not have added,”Is that why you look like a cow? To inspire sympathy for their plight? Or is it because since you don’t eat meat, you think the 30 pounds of cheese-wiz you slather on your curly fries won’t go straight to your ass?” Additionally, I may have also said,”If you don’t like animal cruelty, you should leave now, because I am about to beat the shit out of your beaver for everything you have said tonight.” Needless to say, my comments did NOT shut her up… in fact, it spurred on some stupid rant about how I was “mean” and some shit, but I was up at 9 for my steak sandwich, anyway, so fuck her.

As I delete her number from my phone, and thank my guardian angel for giving me the liver and the good sense to be able to steer clear of what could have been a very large mistake (pun intended), I leave you all with some very snarky words of advice:

Please keep your standards high.

Misery Loves Snarkery

Somewhere around the age of 16 I lost the drive to do anything.

New Snark City, Part Deux(z)

In celebration of my return to my sister’s apartment, where A Couple of Snark was first created, I felt an article was in order. The leftover Thanksgiving alcohol isn’t exactly hindering any illusions I might have about my own hilarity.

I dont really feel like putting a whole situation together for you assholes, so here’s just a collection of funny thoughts I had. I’m sure this all makes very little sense to you without context, but trust me, this shit was hilarious when I was driving down the turnpike to New York.

1) There are so many fucking MORBIDLY obese children gorging themselves at rest-stops on I-95. I guess the fact that they live in a nation that thrives off of coating every meal in cheese and then deep frying it and serving it with a 40oz sugar-packed soda doesn’t exactly help these poor little shits.

2) Their parents are also MORBIDLY obese. Is this why Americans love unnecessarily large SUVs? What exactly is the point of a car that looks like it was designed to do nothing but haul Laura’s big ass? Do you really need a 4WD vehicle to navigate the cul-de-sacs of your ritzy ass little neighbourhoods? I understand those leaves can be mighty tricky to handle in a sedan.

3) I’m bored. Thirsty.

I miss being funny.
