Now that I have your attention..let’s talk about the evolution of this blog.
You’ve Been Hooked! started as a way of venting my ever-growing douchebag-inspired rage but it became quickly apparent I needed an outlet for my other viewpoints as well. And since I don’t exactly like to focus on the Awesome! things in life (Unlike some bloggers!), The Book of Terrible was the perfect home for my particular take on pop culture.
Now it’s time for a tweak or two. I’ll be adding a quick thought about those little things in life that really irk some of us. Some of these things are merely a minor annoyance and some drive us to a murderous rage!
Buckley’s cough syrup

“It Tastes Awful. And It Works.” It’s a great self-deprecating tagline, but they lose me after the first line.
I can understand wanting relief from sickness, but why would someone voluntarily ingest something that tastes like ass?
Especially when there are viable alternatives available. And did I mention my father-in-law puts this godforsaken concoction on every wound from burns to scrapes, and even canker sores? Never mind Chris Rock and his bit about Robitussin, this is real old cracker behavior.
That’s it for now, but just to ease the bitter sting of disappointment some of you are feeling, here’s a Bree Olson shot. Sorry she’s not actually naked, but my there are plenty of sites out there that focus on that sort of thing. So I’m told.

There is also a cough syrup called “Father John’s” tastes like ass, looks like what comes out of ass after Mexican burrito night…but oddly enough..it really does work. My grandmother used to give it to us with a piece of candy.
Sure, or so you’ve been told…..
Why do grandparents hand put cough drops like candy? And for the record, I don’t view THOSE type pf sites – I just don’t have the time or opportunity anymore!
In response to your query: Some people are into asses, Hook. Just ask Bree Olson, I’m sure she could tell you all about it. Maybe that is Buckley’s niche market?
I suppose it could be their market – anything’s possible.
Buckeyes and Bree Olson. Taste bad but Feel better. lol!
I like the way you tell it.
Hook ‘em!
I have a way with words at times, its true. Thanks for the visit- and the comments. For some reason I get a lot of views on this site but not as many comments as You’ve Been Hooked! gets. Oh, well. I’m just glad anyone stops by, especially cool people like you!
I think this is a great way to branch out. In this day and age it’s sometimes hard to tell the difference between stupid people and stupid things.
It sure is! I’m going to alternate between my usual style and this new one.
