Being OVERHEARD

There's a thin line differentiating accidentally overhearing something to spying or eavesdropping on a conversation. And most of us had already experienced one time or another hearing a conversation that made you want to laugh out loud, wherever you may be. To those who want to share their experiences or read about other people's experiences of the like, go to OverheardInTheOffice.com. So many wonderful quotes about daily office life from everyday people. Some might be quite hard to decipher, but others are just simply hilarious. Their co-workers should be given a gold medal for their thoughts. Here are some of the most striking thoughts I've seen so far...
This website is directly connected to another website, OverheardEverywhere.com which in turn posts snips of conversations from all walks of life. Have a sample taste here:

And once there, you could also visit another website, CelebrityWit.com that would make you think that celebrities are also human and are prone to slip-ups in terms of their thoughts (Freudian slips, anyone?).

Loves all of it!!!

MTV VMA's 2009... so cute!

As award shows descend upon us, we are fed with various promos and commercials showing that these and these shows are nominated for these and these awards. MTV does it differently. Being the leading music video channel in the whole world, it needs to have its own award show. But the similarity ends there. Just to show how different they are, they have created these two promo videos for the VMA's.

I Know I will be waiting for the VMA's... will you?

Thanks to YouTube for these videos.

Music's Most Random Lists by Rob O' Connor

Random lists intrigue people, especially if it is about something as universal as music. Rob O' Connor's music lists irk and amuse at the same time. Who could not help but love the way he disses and praises artists of all genres of any generation? To give him his due, there are articles in his blog that are really, weirdly, true.

Here's a taste of some of his memorable blog posts:

Blogthings: Garden-Variety Tests?... NOT!!!

Blogthings has been around for many years. Many of us would recall posting their tests on our social networking sites and asking our friends to take the same tests. While the website is still generally the same, there are hundreds of new tests as well as name creations that you could try. The online tests are certainly fun to try out. They have a lot of topics to choose from, 300+ to be sure.

Here are some of the coolest quizzes I found: (with my own results, of course!)

"Coco Perez" by Perez Hilton

While this may sound like a line from one of those high-end haute couture brands, that thought may not be as far fetched as it seems. Presenting CocoPerez, a new blog by celebrity blogger Perez Hilton, the same person who brought us PerezHilton.com. The latter blog serves as both personal blog and celebrity news blog of Perez (or as he calls himself, P-Nasty). The former, on the other hand, serves as a fashion blog with upcoming trends, celebrity sightings, news, all of which are related to fashion.

Why is this blog worthy of time? Mostly because Perez himself does not go by any style. I do agree with him that though he himself is not a fashion designer, he knows what looks good, what is funky, and most importantly, what is in style. Being fashion forward always seemed to be his best attribute since bursting into the blogging scene with his shrieking pink hair. Loves it, by the way.

Here are pics of the blog to get you going...
