Twitter & plurk/iTunes/BSG finale

Mar 21, 2009 00:20

I feel really conflicted about my micro-blogging life. Whenever I'm on Twitter I feel a lot of pressure to be witty and amazing (whereas some of my friends on there feel pressure to be boring and post every five seconds--none of you guys, though, I promise--and I'm getting pretty sick of it), so sometimes it's less enjoyable than it should be, both ways. But on Plurk, I kind of feel like I take advantage of the conversational benefits and I'm more comfortable just bitching or being boring, since those types of updates don't feel quite as burdensome there. I think it pretty much sucks either way. I love having that type of place, but it should totally not be a lame, stressful thing.

Okay, so, I have an issue and I need some suggestions. I can't stand listening to music anymore. I'm always in the mood for a certain genre or something, but my genres aren't particularly specific. So I use shuffle, and I'll end up skipping like 20 songs before getting to one I want to listen to, and by then I'm pissed off and frustrated. Does anyone have any tips on organizing genres, or finding music without downloading 10 fanmixes?

  1. Laura and Cottle! FUCKING AWW.
  2. LMFAO CENTURIONS PUNCHING EACH OTHER. THAT IS THE AWESOMEST THING EVER. EVEN BETTER THAN ADAMA AND TIGH AT A STRIP CLUB.
  3. Awwwww, Gaius/Caprica!
  4. lmfao their hallucination selves, awesome. That was probably the most necessary reunion ever.
  5. Oh man, Boomer is finally dead. Sadface.
  6. HERA. WHAT THE FUCK. YOU IDIOT.
  7. AWWWW LAURA AND HERA. NOT AGAIN YOU FUCKING MORON. WHAT THE HELL IS YOUR PROBLEM?
  8. Oh man, Roslin and Sharon are totally gonna die out there, aren't they?
  9. HOLY CRAP THAT IS AN EPIC IMAGE. THE FINAL FIVE.
  10. Oh man, just kidding, they're alive right now. Sweet.
  11. Oh Tyrol, what the fuck did you do? Tory should have just been like "PS, I killed your wife, but can we deal with that after we save the universe, kthxbye." Like, I'm sorry, but that's pretty much the worst surprise ever. You can't just unload that on someone and expect to not be strangled. Whatever. Tory was a bitch.
  12. OH SHIT. That fucking sucks.
  13. WHAT? WHAT THE FUCK. EARTH IS NOT EVEN A THING. AND I MEAN I GUESS THAT'S KIND OF BRILLIANT, BUT...FUCK. I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW I FEEL ABOUT THIS. I NEED TIME.
  14. BUT WHO EVEN CARES, OKAY? THE BAD CYLONS STILL HATE THEM. THEY CAN'T RUN FOREVER. I don't know, can they? I mean, okay, what damage happened to the colony? Was it completely destroyed?
  15. AWW. SHIT. FUCK.
  16. Oh shit. That's really fucking sad. Like, sad for the ships and for Anders and everything. I love how a fucking champion pyramid player is like, the cylon who ensures the destiny of humanity. That's kind of incredible. Especially because Kara was really destined for greatness too. That kind of makes them a little more perfect as a couple in my head.
  17. Oh man, Adama!
  18. Tigh and Ellen are so fucking cute.
  19. lmao, why do they not get that it's Earth? Can't they see the constellations or whatever?
  20. Awwww. Fuck. Time to take the president out to see some deer.
  21. God, fuck you, Bear McCreary.
  22. Oh man, don't leeeeave. Shit.
  23. Whattttt. Come on. STOP LEAVINGGG.
  24. HOW THE FUCK DID SHE DO THAT. Oh man, so I guess it has something to do with how she already died? Like she was a human ghost Starbuck, and she only came back to help everyone find Earth, and that was it.
  25. Pshh yessss. Let's get in some pretty Mary hair before it's too late.
  26. God, WHY?! What the fuck is her problem, even? Did she realize he was the cop? Or is she just totally self-destructive and happily awaiting her life of having an affair with Adar and being miserable? Or okay, whatever, she's excited about the campaign. I don't get why she can't have an awesome boyfriend at the same time. I mean, I guess she maybe knew who he was and that was how she held on to the deaths and stuff and kept herself down? I guess that's fine, but I don't understand why she moved on.
  27. Oh man, and that totally happened for real with the ring!
  28. Fucking Adama, why do you always make me cry?
  29. God, this is kind of unnaturally beautiful. And this music is amazing, fuck.
  30. lmfao, we can't end without a final Gaius/Six hallucination.
  31. Aww, Gaius. That's really fucking sweet, I love that he gets to go back to his roots and farm; what an amazing character evolution.
  32. Oh shit, Adama, stop itttttt. Fucking shit.
  33. Oh my god. I love it, this is like the best RL integration ever; I'm so happy they ended up going with this. I think it's incredible that the 13th Colony was supposed to be the one that went to Earth and it was supposed to be them reuniting in the end, but then those guys fucked it up and the fleet ended up doing it on their own and they're trying to do it right this time. Our society never learns from history, so it's nice that these guys did. And that kind of makes me love this show a billion times more, because, hello, learning from history = MY THING. I mean, that's like why I want to write for television, because we're so terrible at learning from history, so the only way to do it is through this fucking box we're obsessed with. SO THANKS BSG FOLKS, YOU = AWESOME.
  34. lmfao, Ron Moore?
  35. Um, I was kind of hoping for a really crazily beautiful ending? But I'm not really having actual composed thoughts right now, so I'll get to it later. Holy god, that was incredible.


God, I love television so much. I don't even know how I'll be able to wrap my head around the ER finale a few weeks from now. And Lost next year--and 24 next year or maybe the year after that. It just really shows you how much a single work of brilliance can say in such a short period of time. I can't wait until I'm in a position to do that. I fully plan to have all of you in RIDICULOUS tears, so get ready.

lost, er, 24, mary mcdonnell, bsg
