I'm The Garfunkel In This Endeavor

Hi my name is Damian and I'm the other guy. In all great partnerships there are the leaders and those who are along for the ride. Kristen is definitely the leader so that leaves me in the enviable position of second banana.

Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I, like Kanye West, am a college dropout. I was a Marketing major. So I know very little about anything that would apply to the real world. The only skill college gave me was the ability to sell people things that they don't need. This is the true purpose of all marketing and I grasped it 15 minutes into my first marketing course.

Marketing took away my ability to think in any deep and meaningful way. I went from WWJD (What would Jesus Do?) to WWBGD (What Would Bill Gates Do?) and perhaps WWRPD (what would Ron Popeil do?). I hope to bring some of this to the blog with my regular feature entitled "People Buy This Crap?". It will be a celebration of consumerism at is most crass. As if we would want it any other way.

Ron Popeil is da Mastah!

I agree with this post. I find it hilarious that anyone would buy an animatronic Billy Bass.

So tell me, did you "major" in CutCo when you dropped out? My cousin was hawking those knives for a while. Seems they target college kids to see their crap. Dunno about anyone else... but CutCo? Hmmm I've got a nice set of Tramontinas, been daydreaming about a Santoku, and Wustoff is a wetdream to me... CutCo? Honestly?
