tuition well spent…and a race around the world

what exactly ARE they teaching my son in school? i shell out $12,000 a year for him to bring THIS home to me…

i have seen this problem before…thank you, SUPERBAD…

anyone want to take a guess as to what it’s really SUPPOSED to be???

on fridays my friends and i have what’s known around here as “google search fridays” where we LAUGH and CRY at the funniest and sickest and saddest search terms that got people to this site. two most popular search terms to get people to alimartell.com…what would you think? ali martell blog? cheaper than therapy? no. #1 is Chad Michael Murray. what? and #2 is…WAIT FOR IT. Dawn and Ash Pokemon Fucking. pokemon porn people!

anyway, sometime this week, there was a search for “Celebs to run the amazing race with Dwight Shrute” and i thought…awesome! how awesome would Dwight Shrute be to run the race with??!?!?

so, after much deliberation…the top 5 tv characters i’d like to run The Amazing Race with are, in no particular order…

1) John Locke – LOST (does this need any sort of explanation. John Locke is the SHIT)

2) GOB Bluth – Arrested Development (we might lose. but we’d always have magic)

3) Peter Petrelli – Heroes (um. dude. he is by far my most favorite of the Heroes heroes. and the most easy on the eyes. take that, Hayden Panettiere)

4) Barney – How I Met Your Mother (sure we’d have to SUIT UP…but a race around the world with ‘Swarley’ would be legen….wait for it…dary.

5) Sydney Bristow – Alias (she kicks ass. hands down. and it helps that she’s totally HOT)

what about you??

hmm.. well, what did Josh say they were?

I’m stretching for a guess: how about four colored markers? No? ok, four one-eyed people in sleeping bags?
Comment by sarah on June 20, 2008
My number one search is for a laxative product. Not shocking.

Comment by slynnro on June 20, 2008
One of my all-time favourite searches to my site was for “hot boobs spraying milk”.

Heh.

I think Dwight Shrute would be a pretty awesome companion on the amazing race.

*snort*

I have no freakin’ idea what Josh’s drawing is supposed to be. All I can think of is “one-eyed trouser snake.”

LMFAO.
Comment by mamatulip on June 20, 2008
I would say Mike Rowe, but I’m afraid he’d pontificate my ass to death.

That much in tuition? I think my bank account just had a heart attack and died too.

My biggest search is Jen Lancaster. Which is weird because if you’re searching for Jen Lancaster, wouldn’t you go to HER site?

I also get chubby feet a lot.

I would want to do The Amazing Race with Sawyer. Or Lorelai from The Gilmore Girls. Just for the banter.

Comment by Kristabella on June 20, 2008
One-eyed snakes. Oh wait, ewww.

Good list. I agree with all of them, but I would replace John Locke with Zac Braff. For the soul reason that he is dreamy.

My number one search is wetting the bed.

Megans last blog post..I need more!
Comment by Megan on June 20, 2008
Oh my god, that picture is hysterical! I can’t wait to have kids so they can bring me home stuff like that! My guess is multicolored popsicles??
Oh, and I would totally want Sawyer with me. Cuz he’s hot. And badass.

I have a few odd searches that routinely find me, like “how to turn girlfriend purple” but my favorite was “where’s the party at bitches?” I love that.

Also, I agree about Peter Petrelli although I wouldn’t take Milo. I’d want my Amazing Race partner to focus on the game and not teenagers.

Comment by She Likes Purple on June 20, 2008
Kim Bauer – 24
Claire Bennet – Heroes
Mary Camden – 7th Heaven
Phoebe Halliwell – Charmed
Kate Austen – Lost

I don’t think we’d win… but race be damned…
Comment by Giblet on June 20, 2008
I thought they were purses 🙂

Agreed on Sydney Bristow! And maybe Courtney Cox, too. She seems like she would be scrappy!
Comment by Sarah on June 20, 2008
I get searches like, “show daddy your panties,” “big lips,” and “i’d like to screw my sister-in-law.”

gorillabunss last blog post..the solution
Comment by gorillabuns on June 20, 2008
My top 3 searches are:
1. My pee smells like tuna
2. Big tits stupid girls
3. If it smells like chicken keep on licken’
4. Boob alphabet
5. I hate my skin.

Yesterday someone came to my blog with the term :”the bathrooms in hell smell like this”

Where are these freaks from?

awww those little penis shirts are adorable! where can i buy some? hahaha!ohh wouldn’t that be awesome to go on amazing race with your fave tv characters.
Comment by LAVENDULA on June 20, 2008
GOB Bluth – ROFLMAO. Yes, that would be great. And I totally agree with Barney and Sydney Barstow.

Giggling too much at your comments to think on my own…

pgoodnesss last blog post..One more example
Comment by pgoodness on June 20, 2008
I can only think of one right now since it’s Friday and I’m barely here at work as it is. heh.

Jackie Warner from Work Out! I love her! We’d win b/c she kicks ass, takes names and … other stuff.

marys last blog post..Donâ€™t Come to the Islands
Comment by mary on June 20, 2008
I’d say Kate Austen, maybe Juliette from Lost as well, Barney (fo schiz), Elle (Kristen Bell) from Heroes or maybe even Veronica Mars..and ack! I’m a TV addict and can’t even come up with a fifth! Does Phil from TAR count? Because I’d totally take him any day!

As for your son, those look like those test tube shots the barmaids carry around and try to cram down your throat…

Also, I just checked and once again I missed the Amazing Race deadline — it was three weeks ago, AAARRRRGH! Though my mom made me swear Scott and I would never go on it: “I like Scott too much to lose him!” she says. Thanks, Mom.

I agree with Giblet on Phoebe Halliwell. I’d also add Buffy the Vampire Slayer! You never know demons you might run into! 🙂

I found artwork from first grade where I said, “I love playing Penis”.

(I SWORE to my mom I meant “Piano” but I’m not sure if she believed me or not).

Loralees last blog post..Opening night!
Comment by Loralee on June 20, 2008
Totally unrelated here. But as all the roomies for BlogHer were exchanging numbers I realized that your blog was not on my Google Readeer anymore and I was all like, WTF.

I have corrected the situation.

And I’m super excited to text back and forth making fun of people.

Kristies last blog post..Gah! It’s about time.
Comment by Kristie on June 20, 2008
I’d say someone in your house has been wearing iPod socks in an improper manner…and in front of the child! hahaha

If Mike Rowe is already taken I’d totally want Bear Grylls from Man vs Wild. He’s hot, he gets naked at random times, and obviously has some mad survival skills.
Comment by AJ on June 20, 2008
I can’t even remember what I was going to say because I’m laughing so hard at SleepyNita’s comment. What is going on over at her site?

Josh’s picture is hilarious. I’m going to guess that he’s drawings mii’s (I just had a panic attack while trying to figure out how to pluralize mii – is it the weekend yet?)

I’m going with protozoa on the picture. They learn that stuff very early these days.

THAT picture is so frameable. Don’t you think it would look classy framed in your guest bathroom?

Too bad my kids art auction is over. The Bloggess male apparatus thingee sold like wildfire.

And I’d pick Peter Petrelli too, hands down.

I’m going with purses. Yup, purses.

That or markers, that’s a good guess, too.

I’m gonna raise your #’s 4 & 5 and add to it Vaughn (Alias)(HAWT!), Marshall & Lily (HIMYM).

So nobody got that they were light sabers…

My top hit right now is some variation about Dooce and her Today Show appearance. Either that, or icky daddy-daughter stuff.
