Jami Is McAnnoyed
I will admit it: even though I'm a pop culture geek, I don't know what a McDreamy is. I gather it has something to do with Grey's Anatomy which I don't watch and certainly won't start now, what with all the McDreamy this and that I hear everywhere, all the time. Or so it seems.
McDreamy, what-or-whoever that might be, is one of those things that makes me disproportionately angry. I don't worry to much about that because I think we all have the one thing that just irks us to no end for no real reason. For the Husband, it's Daniel Cook. This rather innocuous little kid is the host of a 6-minute, Canadian import "show" during which he interviews seemingly random experts. Yes, the kid has less of an attention span than me on a caffeine high, but hey, it's not like he's covering emergency breaking news that we need to know. Doesn't matter. The Husband hates this kid. He cringes at the theme songs. He roots for catastrophic events during the brief interviews. The Husband, for reasons he can't even really articulate, just despises this little Canuck.
That's how I feel about the mere word McDreamy. It just rankles. It irritates me every time I read or hear it. I don't know why, and I don't care. I just can't stand it. I don't care if every actor and/or director and/or writer I love works on one super-episode of Grey's Anatomy, I am so mad at them for the whole you-know-what craze that I still couldn't bring myself to watch that episode because I just know they'd say that over and over until I'd have no choice but to walk out of my house and just start punching people. It's more annoying than the whole "let's join celebrity couples' names" fad which is so stupid that even tabloids should be ashamed, assuming they have the capability.
Please, America, stop saying, writing and even thinking "McDreamy", for all our sakes.

Is your problem with the character, the actor or the nickname???

It's with the nickname; it's like nails on a chalkboard. I don't know anything about the character and honestly, I don't even know which actor it refers to. I know, doesn't make sense, but I never claimed to.

I don't care one way or the other. However, I cannot stand for the life of me why anyone would make a cartoon called "Kipper."
Can someone please tell me why Pig is called Pig while his son (who doesn't speak) is called Arnold?
Anyone?
