If only I had listened...

Oh! Now I see it, the first comments - but those are not really about the video, that's more of an inside comment to me personally about Jose's first time out at the Eagle here since he moved to town.

s'ok - I was so high up on my soapbox that I didn't have enough air to maintain a logical thought process.

I've stepped down and am feeling much better now. But yeah, the bear thing has been on my mind for a few years and the reaction from various folks on various blogs touched a wee nerve.

I am by no means a defender of BearForce1 (giggle) just was surprised at what a strong negative "those guys need to be shot" (on one blog) response it had.

This is why we can't have nice things! Can't we all just get along? ;)

Hmmm, that might be impossible... because see, well... I totally hate everyone and their ass faces!

Gp home and bite your pillow.

Actually, I really like what yer saying about all this. I just saw this for the first time tonight, and apparently I'm already so far behind everyone. In the world of LJ timeliness, "That fucking Bearforce 1 video was so this morning!" Anyway, I really liked it. Silly, satirical, dancy fun. Made me grin. Like Alanis' version of "My Humps." I loved that everyone got so up in arms about an obviously fun poke at herself and pop.

Jeez, my ursine brethren, lighten up. (Not you or Mikey, just, you know, in general.)

I just wish I thought it was a spoof. I really don't. Maybe the joke is on "Robert" the lead singer in pink and the three other guys are spoofing, but if you watch him and look at the pics on the site, he has the eye of the tiger...bear. He's in it for the prize, or he is sure selling it like he is.
