Pussycat Dolls = Best thing ever

I'm so disconnected from the streets right now, I really don't know shit about shit. When I listen to music, it's usually mid-'80s Fleetwood Mac, and I only turn on the TV when I know The Real World or Weeds is going to be on.

But the other day I actually ended up watching one of those top 20 countdowns on VH1 - you know the ones that are supposed to be voted on by you the viewer, but it's the exact same shit (Jason Mraz and what have you) week after week. I'm not even sure how it got on, but it was one of those mornings where I couldn't summon the energy to either change the station or move from in front of the TV.

So apparently, one of the most popular songs in the country right now - right up there with hits by Mariah Carey and Gwen Stefani (what is this, 1995?) - is some shit called "Don't Cha" by this group the Pussycat Dolls. I think I may have heard 10 seconds or so of this on the radio in my car before I usually turned it off because, as Jeru the Damaja would say, it's bullshit.

But...

How come nobody told me this video was the best thing that could possibly happen? It's almost as if the Tall Israelis have developed some sort of way to tap directly into my subconscious. Or maybe they just got their hands on my Internets search records. Either way, watching it was like receiving an early birthday present from the Lord. I'm almost tempted to turn on the TV periodically during the day just to make sure it's not on.
