hilarity at The Bookstore

HI INTERNET. Guess who's here? Guess! Guess! Unless you were in the chat last night, in which case you know it's twilighted. Um, or you read that sentence. So I guess now everybody knows. ::shifty eyes::

But yes! (Medium)Julie is here! And so far we have a) gotten lost on Intervale Road, b) eaten food, c) other stuff. And this is just the beginning of our adventure!

But, before she got here there was the Fancy Nancy part, which was awesome and involved fake jewelry and butterfly wings and stuff like that. And soon after that, there is this AMAZINGLY HILARIOUS picture I am going to show you.

A bit of background, I think I've mentioned this before, but when you search for a DVD on B&N BookMaster, it comes up as being by one of the actors. I always assumed it was the first listed actor, but then TODAY HAPPENED.



I searched for Ark of Truth to see if we're getting it and so I could consider buying it because apparently now I like SG-1 what the hell is wrong with me? and, for shits and giggles clicked on "Cast and Crew." That was where I saw the first hilarious thing: Michael Shanks is listed as "Daniel Jackson," but every other character is listed by the shortest version of their name possible. Mitchell is even listed as "Cam." What the hell? And Beau Bridges doesn't even get a listing as "Hank" (as I'm assuming they would call him), he gets "Actor."

Crazypants.

So then I clicked on reccomendations where I saw the second hilarious part:
Stargate Atlantis - Season 3
By David Nykl

AHAHAHAHAHAAH WHAT? How many episodes of S3 is he in? Like, eight? I don't even think they list him in the "actors" section of the S3 mainpage on BookMaster! I find this too hilarious for words. I also like that "Stargate SG-1: The Complete Series" is by Claudia Black, who was only a main character in S10? HILARIOUS.

This is ten times funnier if you look at these listings the way my screwed up head does, which is to imagine the actor in question literally writing the entire show. Hunched over a computer, pecking the scripts out letter by letter.

"T-h-e," types Keanu Reeves, "m-a-t--oh no! I forgot to capitalize!"

::cough:: Anyway. Yes. Poor Claudia Black probably has blisters from writing all of those SG-1 scripts for so many years.

::cough:: Um, this is probably incredibly less funny to you guys than it was to me, but I had to share. I HAD TO SHARE. It's a compulsion.

Anyway. Um, I'm going to wrap this up because I'm sure watching me type is no fun at all.

work: bn, sg1 apparently, sga
