13 things that are worth the hype

last week we spoke about the things in life that are totally overrated. today i thought we could talk about those things that really are worth the hype. now, i’m sure there will be people who disagree and say…”ipods suck Ali…you can get a zune and it will do the exact same thing” and they might be right…but i love me some ipods (which is probably why i have..erm, 4). Sure there are tons more i could add…like…lululemons because oh. my. god. they are AMAZING.


1. Cheesecake Factory

2. ipod

3. winsor pilates buns and thighs 20-minute dvd

4. 30 Rock


5. Rusk flat iron

6. dick in a box

7. facebook


8. super mario galaxy

9. My new entertainment site, Juice: Entertainment News with Extra Pulp


10. white chocolate reese’s peanut butter cups

11. nonfat, sugar-free gingerbread latte from Starbucks

12. skinny jeans

13. Josh Groban’s Noel album

what about you?? what’s totally worth the hype?

You can post a comment, or trackback from your site.

Slim jeans? Not so cute on me. But I’m heavier than you.
30 Rock is my new favorite show - it’s so much fun.
I can’t think of anything that I love off the top of my head… um, I’ve really been loving a scarf that a reader sent me this week. There you go: hand knit scarves: worth the hype.

All your talk about skinny jeans is really starting to anger me, because I cannot wear skinny jeans. :)

Worth the hype? Spanx, the iPhone, Tivo, and Splenda.

This is going to show my lame side, but I just got a new Dyson and holy cow is it ever worth the hype! Of course the whole time I use it I hear a little Mr. Dyson voice in my head, accent and all, saying, “It won’t lose suction…evah” but I can live with that. haha

chai tea latte (starbucks) and Project Runway….

[ 13 Dec 07 ]

You had me at hello until skinny jeans, but if you have the bod to rock it, go for it! I 10x agree with facebook and groban especially!

Winsor pilates? REally! I see those infomercials, but have been skeptical, maybe I should buy it!

But skinny jeans? SKINNY JEANS! I wholeheartedly disagree. Ugh.

Worth the hype…I agree with Stacy, Splenda.

you are my gingerbread latte luvah!

Worth the hype? Superbad!

what the feck is a zune?
we have recently discovered that heroes is worth the hype. and if i ever fit into skinny jeans again, than my ass will be worth the hype.

[ 13 Dec 07 ]

I’m confused about your love of the skinny jeans. But, I do agree about the Lulu’s and you made me want to go to Starbucks !

[ 13 Dec 07 ]

After being reminded of the Dick in a Box video, I had to go search and watch it again (and again!).

[ 13 Dec 07 ]

I disagree about the holiday drinks … even if they are non-fat and sugar free.
Totally worth the hype? Crocs!
(just kidding)

The new Doctor Who is worth the hype.

I’m happy enough that I can now just barely squeeze back into my size 14s. I gave up on them just after Christmas last year, IIRC, so I’m gonna have to be careful. ;)

I have two TT13s this week:

30 Rock for sure!!! I don’t think it’s gotten ENOUGH hype.

Being taken on a surprise weekend to Nashville by one’s husband. Hype or not…it was great!

[ 13 Dec 07 ]

I’d like to second A.J.’s vote for the Dyson…..best $400 purchase, ever.

[ 13 Dec 07 ]

skinny jeans? ACK! jitta and i complain about those all the time, because they are just NOT okay on girls with curves (which we have plenty of). so sad.

but yeah, dick in a box is so awesome. :)

[ 13 Dec 07 ]

Oooh… I love anything Starbucks, but my favorite is the Peppermint Mocha!

[ 13 Dec 07 ]

Just wore my skinny jeans with boots tucked in today! I love ‘em!

[ 14 Dec 07 ]

I haven’t seen 30 Rock yet. Maybe with the writers strike I should check it out.

The skinny jean is not me. I have skinny legs and a size 10 foot. Not so cute, unless I want to look like a clown.

[ 14 Dec 07 ]

I love your juice page.

The hype?
long t-shirts or tanks.
abercrombie
white chocolate mochas
facebook
lulu’s
christmas (totally worth the hype)
working lots and big paycheques (that’s all I have been doing lately)
I may do a post on this this weekend.

and vintage (real vintage, made in 1971, not re-made in 2007) winter coats. I wear my Grandma’s and it is so cozy warm.

[ 14 Dec 07 ]

and Greys’,
of course.
Now I am done stalking your blog…
for today.

If skinny jeans magically made me skinny, I’d agree. Sadly, they are fat jeans for me.

And I LOVE 30 Rock! I think it actually is under-hyped. I wish more people were watching it. And you know I’m with you on the Cheesecake Factory.

[ 14 Dec 07 ]

I think 30 Rock is brilliant! I don’t have any experience at all of the other 12 items.

[ 14 Dec 07 ]

I am so with you on 30 Rock & gingerbread latte.

[ 14 Dec 07 ]

I’m with you on the iPod. And I’ll also throw Friday into the mix. Because it’s been a long, hard week.

[ 14 Dec 07 ]

Ooh - Cheesecake Factory. Now I’m just drooling.

I think I need an emergency trip to Buffalo now.

[ 16 Dec 07 ]

30 Rock is the god of my idolatry, but you already knew that. I think it’s time for Quotes of the Week, don’t you? ;)

“Ooh, look at you guys. How was court?” ….”Oh, you were really IN court?”

“This is a flask.”

“It was just one game dad…although I did kind of change everything forever.”

ps: Long live skinny jeans!!

[ 17 Dec 07 ]

Did you include “skinny” jeans because you knew they are controversial because they promote an unhealthy image for women, and thus would generate a lot of disgusted comments (like this one)?

[ 17 Dec 07 ]

That’s hysterical that skinny jeans and Cheesecake Factory are on the same list! For me, you just can’t have them both.
