I'm Swimming with Information Sharks

I found myself quite in Obama's situation a few months ago when I found myself asking "What in the hell is a Kardashian?"

Good on the President for not being arsed with this nonsense. I wish my brain's GC algo would remove all trace of memory of these creatures from my awareness.

Agreed. But a kardasian is a little better than a snook for those scoring at home.

What the hell is Snooki?

The only information I can provide is that she's some girl on a reality show called The Jersey Shore. I'm embarrassed to even know that much.

Great post. My feeling went from "this guy needs to get out more" to "oh god that sounds exactly like me" in a few paragraphs.

Mah pa-al ka-el indeed.

Short version: "I'm so awesome, don't you know it! And plus plus!!!! I totally haz ever3lol on teh intertubezzz"

Obama had mentioned Snooki in the past. Maybe he is addicted to the stream as the rest of us (god, I hope not). http://theweek.com/article/index/205575/did-obama-lie-about-...
