I've got the flu. I'm starting into my second week, so I'm ambulatory, but I still can't breathe through any factory-standard orifice. Also food in all forms repulses me. Also I want to kill people. Luckily my potential victims can hear me attempting to respire from several football fields away, so as yet the fatality count is zero ( Read more... )

I like Ewan McGregor. He's short and gingery and sort of looks maybe a little bit like Rob Anybody, with whom, I want to tell you, I would run away and never look back. Also he used to be naked a lot. (Ewan McGregor, not Rob Anybody.) (Although.)

Ewan McGregor will soon appear in a movie called Angels & Demons. I just saw the trailer. It's based ( Read more... )

Hey! So, American Idol was won by: That one guy! Yay! Congratulations, dude. Way to overcome the terrible adversity thrust upon you as a downtrodden and disadvantaged... bartender? I was actually kind of hoping the other guy would win, the one who sang "Feelings" every week, because I knew that the final winning single would definitely be "Feelings ( Read more... )

Look! I'm doing a meme! I got it from silverqe (unsolicited):

List ten fictional characters you would have sex with (in no particular order) and tag five people to do the sameDo it if you want, though. This is my first, and probably last, meme. I never do them, because if I did them, then everyone would know what an asshole I am. Well. You would have ( Read more... )

OHLOOK: Entertainment Weekly appears to have named J.K. Rowling 'Entertainer of the Year' for 2007. One of many reasons I no longer subscribe to Entertainment Weekly (other reasons included but are not limited to a massive periodical backlog I've been amassing since summer, ongoing conflicts of interest with Stephen King, and the fact that Lisa ( Read more... )

Did you see this? I think it's really terrible. Everyone knows the Planet Earth was a guileless and violence-free utopia before its unbroken peace was shattered by the advent of the cathode-ray tube in display technology. I think we should all destroy our televisions -- in a gentle and non-violent way, of course -- just on the off chance that a ( Read more... )
