Not everything "ROCKS" - juvenile journalism SUCKS

When you have 20-something interns writing for your website, you get dumbed down stories and brainless descriptions.

Have you noticed how often somebody "rocks" something? Obama "rocked" his speech. Bono "rocks" his sunglasses. And...the height of stupidity...

So, another inane starlet with a dumbass name "rocks" some attention-getting brain-dead easy shock value gimmick...like sticking a fake goatee on her stupid face?

What's the opposite of something that "rocks?" Something that Faps? It seems the 20-somethings replace real words with simple-minded burps. And where did they get the idea? The Internet. The Internet where ugly words (TWERK) become the norm. How do you "catch" the attention of an ADD shit-for-brains? So many ways that don't rock:

You shorten a person's name from Jennifer Lopez to JLo. From Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie to Brangelina.

You name your Internet search company something meaningless like BING or CUIL or TREXY.

You forget that "hipster" went out in the late 50's when the beatniks cut their hair and got jobs, and name your company NAPSTER or something else equally KEWL.

Of course you are proficient in "text speech," R N U?

Another thing that can nauseate, is taking a perfectly good word and fucking up the meaning. GAY is a prime example, but so is "BAD" as meaning GOOD. Remember last year when the buzzword wasn't BUZZWORD (ugh) but...FIERCE? Everything was FIERCE. A bunch of GAYS, acting BAD, decided that a bright red dress, or shaved pubes or a dick-shaped burrito was...FIERCE.

Nothing rocks these days. Not J-WOWW or J-Lo or JLAW ... And not today's rock music.
