Blogist: Lords of the Loop

030209_lordsOTL.jpg Houstonist has a friend who works in the medical business. This friend once told us that anytime you see a person wearing scrubs in public it is because that person whats you to know that they work in medicine. See, our friend is required to change out of his scrubs before he leaves work, because the nature of his work means that his scrubs frequently come into contact with biohazardous material. Thus, anyone wearing scrubs outside of work is either lazy, biohazardous themselves, or wearing a fresh clean crisp set of scrubs in order to show off. Since then, "scrubolepsy" has been a pet peeve of ours.

It's a pet peeve we share with Lords of the Loop. Along with people who wear bluetooth headsets. All. The. Time. People who are so important they can't possibly miss a phone call, even while they're having lunch at Ruby Tuesdays.

We're not entirely sure what this collaborative blog is about, other that life ITL, but snark is a strong point of the Lords. A word to the business owners of Houston: do not piss these guys off. From a post titled Fuck You Its Star Pizza:

The guy at the To Go counter has a bear trap for a grill and speaks in asshole.

And regarding Cahill's on Durham:

Its unexplainable lack of seating and unplugged refrigerator scent make Cahill's the perfect place to ditch someone you hate.

Enemies of the blog are handily listed in the sidebar, and include Comcast, the city of Stafford, and the non-specific "bosses." Likes include Bill Ocean and Billy Joel.
