Gratuitous Llama Mass-Marketing Victim Observation

I am O-fficially sick to death of seeing ads for Will Ferrell's new movie Talladega Nights pasted all over creation. Sick. Sick. Sick.

And let me just pass this on to the movie's creators: I gather this is an attempt to send up Nascar, but let me tell you that your first shot goes wide: "Ricky Bobby" is no Southern redneck name - it's a poor Blue State clunker of a parody of a Southern redneck name. I've got no brief for Nascar Nation, but this sort of thing rankles - if you're going to lampoon something, do it right.

I realize that I'm probably the ONLY person in the western hemisphere who feels this way but:

I don't GET Will Ferrell. I don't think he's all that funny.

Never have and probably never will.

No, you're not alone. I don't get him either.
