Keeping up with the Cardassians

Wednesday, January 02, 2008

I'm walking back to work after lunch today with my coworkers and one of them is debating what new car to buy. She's debating between Toyota and Lexus SUVs. My other coworker points out a Mazda RX-72 ZC (or some other stupid combination of letters and numbers) and says "How about that one? That's what the Cardassians drive." I swear to God I thought he was talking about the alien race on Star Trek that have big thumb-prints in their foreheads. I busted up laughing because it seemed absurd for a Cardassian to be driving a Mazda SUV. Where were the cannons for shooting up Bajorans?

My quickly figured out what I thought they said and started laughing at me. Turns out there's some reality TV show called "Keeping up with the Kardashians" where they just follow some family around. Now, I read a lot of useless shit on the internet everyday and watch my fair share of television, all for the sake of keeping up with pop culture, but I have never even heard of this show. Apparently I'm supposed to know all about this show which, from what I gather, is about some bimbo and her family. What the deuce is going on?

    Hum-Vees. Cardassians defintely drive HumVs.

    Every once and awhile, I see a car or a building and say to my wife, "That's Cardassian design/architecture/cuisine."

    Next: Cardassian sex-toys.

    *squee* Dukat drives a station wagon. Tain has that crappy-looking yet pimped-out car from the first Men in Black movie.

    I Googled "Keeping up with the Cardassians"

    I think we have the name for a new reality series involving Marc Alimo.

    A reality show with Garak and Tain would be awesomeness.

    I think, even after the passage of years since the original post here, that "Keeping Up With the Cardassians" would be FAR more entertaining than "Keeping Up With the Kardashians".

    Who needs bimbos when you can watch sexy Cardassian guys? Gee, it's something about those scales. Can you say 'pleasure bumps'?

    ((I'm with Dabney on the sex-toy idea, I mean WTH, someone came out with a (no, I'm NOT kidding) Twilight-related dildo. It's flesh-toned and...wait for it...SPARKLY! OMFG, like srsly, and they're making MONEY! OK Dabney, let's get out the latex and pour us some SCALES! LOL!))
