As A Pedestrian...

So yesterday....

We went to see Hunger Games at midnight and it was FABULOUS!!! There was a few zoobs along the way that we noticed but today topped them all for me and here is why.
I did not have the opportunity to go to sleep last night, I had this 12 page paper due in class at 9 a.m. and I wanted to go to the midnight showing and I have this amazing talent of procrastinating. Add two and two together equals my not sleeping. I wrote a great paper if I do say so myself and after I had turned it in, I was walking to my next class. The distance between my 9 o'clock class and my 10 o'clock class is long and so I have to walk fast in order to make it on time. I usually decide to take a short cut in the parkway which most of the time is fine. But not today... I was walking through a small opening of cars and I was almost at the end when a female zoob literally cut me off!!! The space is only wide enough for one person. She saw me ( I am where a bright pink sweatshirt) and she just kept on going and I had to literally turn sideways in order for her to pass. The thing that gets me the most is that she clearly could have gone a different route without backtracking but no.... she decided to cut be off without slowing down. Any other day this probably would not have bothered me but with no sleep it really did tick me off.
I wanted to yell  "ZOOB"!
You would be proud, I did not.

Please I beg, don't be a zoob!

Denny's, the hub for the zoobs?

It had been a long day. Nothing but projects, homework, and work. Nothing in this town stays open past 10, so Denny's is the place to be for anyone that doesn't have a set bedtime, even if they are in college.

We get there, my husband, cousin and I and look over the menu to order. We see 4  boys, (college age) hopping over the fence outside of the Denny's (the fence was used to protect the shrubbery around the Denny's windows and restaurant.) They were trying to sneak up on this couple that were seated right by the window and were attempting to scare them. I got their attention from across the  room that someone was trying to be extremely immature and scare them. They turn around and they clearly recognize the boys. 

They then proceed to yell "HEY, COME IN AND EAT SOME FREAKIN' DENNY'S!" They were trying (at the expense of people around them) to have a full on conversation with these idiots THOUGH THE WINDOW! Instead of me, (my mistake) trying to warn these people, at which I thought were innocent bystanders, about to be "zoobed" by the boys outside, they join in with them! The conversation ended with "YOU ARLEADY ATE? SCREW YOU MAN! SCREW YOU! SCREW YOU! HAHAHAHA!"  

First off, why are those boys there if they already ate somewhere else? How does that make sense, even in Zoob land? These people are so immature, they are from a different planet! I view this place as a jungle, and the Denny's is the watering hole, where all the zoobs congregate. Sometimes you think there might be something in the water around here, because if you stay here to long, you might turn into one.....

Who cares what the fox says!

Welcome to your first day in the life of a stranger living in zoob Land.


A couple of months this song was introduced into the world. And for some reason I watched how this culture accepted it with open arms.I can't seem to wrap my head around that fact that all the zoobs here love this song??? Why is that?? I do not understand. Zoobs here are not intelligent  I do not mean academically smart, I mean common sense smart. 
There have been a phenomenal amount of people who love this song so much that there have been BYU students who have dressed up to mimic Ylvis to a BYU football game. I have always had to ask...         
WHY?
I will let you first see or probably re-see the music video for the full effect. Here it is...

Explain why all the humans dressed up, in animal costumes, are in the forest doing some ritualistic dance as if there were doing witchcraft.  And how does the fox communicate to the horse? Hello?!? there is something wrong here.

This song has exploded in popularity. When I listen to it and when I watch it I cannot help but look completely dumbfounded. This song is completely, 100%, just downright, stupid. There is no intelligence here. In fact, I feel as if I am losing my own brain cells by just dropping to their level. The producers were on crack to have created this video.  I do NOT understand how there could possible be 226 million views on this video alone. This is on the same level as the PBS T.V. series Teletubbies or Boohbah:

                                                                                         

                                                   
                              

A type of entertainment for the extremely young between the ages of 2-6. Because at 7, the child has grown out of it and moved on to Disney's Phineas and Ferb:

Or sometimes, if I am in a good mood, I might say that, maybe, it would qualify for a children picture book. Let me read you some lyrics:

Dog goes "woof"

Cat goes "meow"

Bird goes "tweet"

And mouse goes "squeak"

Cow goes "moo"

Frog goes "croak"

And the elephant goes "toot"

Ducks say "quack"

And fish go "blub"

And the seal goes "ow ow ow"

But there's one sound

That no one knows

What does the fox say?

"Ring-ding-ding-ding-dingeringeding!

Gering-ding-ding-ding-dingeringeding!

Gering-ding-ding-ding-dingeringeding!"

What the fox say?

"Wa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pow!

Wa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pow!

Wa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pow!"

What the fox say?

"Hatee-hatee-hatee-ho!

Hatee-hatee-hatee-ho!

Hatee-hatee-hatee-ho!"

What the fox say?

"Joff-tchoff-tchoffo-tchoffo-tchoff!

Tchoff-tchoff-tchoffo-tchoffo-tchoff!

Joff-tchoff-tchoffo-tchoffo-tchoff!"

What the fox say?

Big blue eyes

Pointy nose

Chasing mice

And digging holes

Tiny paws

Up the hill

Suddenly you're standing still

Your fur is red

So beautiful

Like an angel in disguise

But if you meet

A friendly horse

Will you communicate by

Mo-o-o-o-orse?

Mo-o-o-o-orse?

Mo-o-o-o-orse?

How will you speak to that

Ho-o-o-o-orse?

Ho-o-o-o-orse?

Ho-o-o-o-orse?

What does the fox say?

"Jacha-chacha-chacha-chow!

Chacha-chacha-chacha-chow!

Chacha-chacha-chacha-chow!"

What the fox say?

"Fraka-kaka-kaka-kaka-kow!

Fraka-kaka-kaka-kaka-kow!

Fraka-kaka-kaka-kaka-kow!"

What the fox say?

"A-hee-ahee ha-hee!

A-hee-ahee ha-hee!

A-hee-ahee ha-hee!"

What the fox say?

"A-oo-oo-oo-ooo!

Woo-oo-oo-ooo!"

What does the fox say?

The secret of the fox

Ancient mystery

Somewhere deep in the woods

I know you're hiding

What is your sound?

Will we ever know?

Will always be a mystery

What do you say?

You're my guardian angel

Hiding in the woods

What is your sound?

(Wa-wa-way-do Wub-wid-bid-dum-way-do Wa-wa-way-do)

Will we ever know?

(Bay-budabud-dum-bam)

I want to

(Mama-dum-day-do)

I want to

I want to know!

A good friend of mine is in a Motion Pictures Essential class and the question was raised "Why is 'What does the fox say?' so popular?" when discussing how to create a good plot. His answer "They are prying on the stupid of our society." I honestly can't see why anyone who is educated would like this song. There is nothing uplifting about it. Yes, it is clean but also has no substance. Good things will last, but the stupid will be forgotten.

Here in zoob land, it is popular and I cannot see as to why. We are taught to become an educated, diverse, cultured people. We need to rise above the dumb things of this world.

So I want to pose the question...what does the zoob say?
