and now for something completely different....
this has nothing to do with the way i was (and still am) feeling an hour ago.
but i've got to add some oscar commentary (i can't believe i watched it. all of it. i've never done that before. that's what happens when you're depressed and angry. you want to look at the beautiful people and mock them. yay escapism.)
- Hillary Swank, who i really like and respect, thanked her lawyers in her too-long acceptance speech. she is now a lot lower on the people i really like and respect list.
- so i disagree with Chris Rock's mockery of Jude Law, but did anyone else think it was awkward when Sean Penn defended him nervously when he was supposed to be presenting best actress? it was kind of like "oh yeah well...i really LIKE jude! so there! stupid host."
- by the 3rd sappy Beyonce ballad my bladder had an instant need to take advantage of this boring moment to relieve itself the minute she opened her mouth.
- also, what's with her singing 3 out of 5 nominated songs? maybe they had other divas scheduled to sing them but Beyonce murdered them before the show in a jealous and frantic attempt to prove that she is more than just bootylicious. it's a good thing she left Carlos Santana and Yo Yo Ma alone...though it would have been fun to see her try to replace them.
- they introduced Drew Barrymore as "multi talented". anyone else curious? i'm thinking either she can also tap dance or she gives really good blowjobs.
- did you notice the random crashes and loud bangs that kept coming from offstage? what the hell?
- the above might be evidence of my Beyonce theory. har har har.
- When people bring their little daughters as their date to the Oscars, i melt.
- why didn't I Heart Huckabees get nominated for anything?
- the oscars are the biggest waste of time ever. and i just wasted even more time thinking and writing about them. damnit. i should go do something meaningful.
