What Would You Say If...?

I’ve been re-reading some of my entries from the past few days. UGH! Can you say VANILLA!? I know I’m my own worst critic, but seriously, who cares what I think about Seth Godin or The September Issue? I struggle with how personal, political, religious or sarcastic to get in my entries. (Yes, you can be religious and sarcastic at the same time!)

I mean, I'm always honest with you, but that's because I don't write about anything that I wouldn't be comfortable being truthful about. However, I'm thinking I should test my limits in this post. I'm going to give you my (somewhat controversial) opinions on a few things and I'd like you to give me your thoughts. So, let's play a little game that I like to call "What would you say if..."

What would you say if I told that I think Kanye West is a complete jerk for interrupting Taylor Swift’s acceptance speech at the VMAs (apparently President Obama agrees with me), even if I'm not a fan of Swift's music. He was just upset that the country-singing white girl beat out the African American pop star. (To be clear, Beyonce's video was smoking hot and I am not racist, but Kanye was COMPLETELY in the wrong.)

Or, what would you say if I told you that I think Bill O’Reilly is spot on with his political analysis of just about everything, and I would vote for him for president in a heartbeat.

Lastly, what would you say if I told you that I hate the fact that no one in California dresses up for work. There's a time and place for shorts, a t-shirt and flip flops, but that place is not the office. (Ironically, I think this last statement will enrage more of you than the first two.)

Well, there you go. Now, feel free to let me know whether you like my polite, thoughtful side or my loud, outspoken side better. (Mom, I already know your answer.)

Until Tomorrow,
Jennifer Lynn
