Today's Things That Must Go

I can only think of two this week, and I don't want to try too hard to think of others. One of them may even be a repeat, but it still must go.
1). Mustaches--I'm not opposed to facial hair in and of itself. The problem I have is men who grow a mustache and nothing else. Unless you are a 70's porn star or a child molester, the look doesn't fit you. Yet, oddly enough, I've seen an abundance of upper lip hair in the past two weeks. I don't get it. I wonder if the fellows who grow them think they're sexy or something like that, cause they just aren't. A mustache is definitely something that shouldn't be found today, and as such must go.
2). The Duggar Family--they're those crazy Arkansas folks who have 18 kids. Worse than that, they named all of their kids with the same letter, J. So they breed like rabbits, what do I care? It shouldn't entitle them to a tv show, a book deal and everything they're getting for their odd mating habits. I had the misfortune to watch part of an episode last night, and they're just strange folk. Of course they're from Arkansas, so that explains a lot of the back-woodseyness. But they're like uptight Mormons, but less fun it seems as well. Their oldest son, in this episode, was making plans for his wedding. I completely understand the religious motives for the two of them "remaining pure," but these two weren't even allowed to kiss. They had chaperons at all times. C'mon where's the trust? Anyway, they're odd folk, maybe that's why they've gained popularity (like a train wreck that people can't help but look at). For me, though, I only see Jim Bob and Michelle as a couple of old, horny Jesus Freaks who haven't got the slightest idea about birth control. As such, they must go.
