Let’s Add Some Drama
Posted on January 12, 2008 – 3:16 pm by admin
As you may already know, I listen to HGTV while I am working. I like the channel, especially the show “Ground Breakers,” because it has to do with dirt.
There are a bunch of other shows on throughout the day that I am not all that interested in. They are usually cutesy little shows with people playing with doyleys and things like that. I am not into painting little pictures and putting them into the house. I like construction.
You may have heard me rant about all the stupid words the HGTVers have made up through the years. Some of these words include, “space” instead of room, “organic” for anything earth tone, “craftsman style” for anything that exists outside of California and now “drama” for a point of interest. Let’s add some “drama” to that corner.
I really hate these words. I feel like the people on these shows are trying way too hard to push some sort of language on us normal people. Maybe it’s not even so much the words they use, but the fact that they use them all of the sudden. One week we’ll be fine and the next week we’ll have two dozen weirdos saying, “Boy, this space has really been enhanced by the craftsman style and organic flavors. I still think we need to add some draaaaama to that wonderful little snicker of cuteness.”
Man oh man.
TYSM I read this one and decided to try it out on my ACER (See, its not always HP with the problems)...

You sound bitter – like you were brought up in a home filled with “doyleys”.

Yes, I blame myself for these people being such wack jobs.
