I. I had the best Canadian water cooler moment yesterday. I was filling up my water bottle after using the gym, and this random middle-aged man pointed (in a non-creepy way) to my water bottle was all like "Is that your team? :D :D :D" (there was a Habs logo on my water bottle) and I was all like "Why yes it is :D :D :D" and then we spent five ( Read more... )

For those of you who are for some reason NOT WATCHING THIS SHOW

It's because there are vampires. Full stop.

XD But it has so much other good. Just ignore the boring vampire stuff (which is what I do).

WHO'S GOT TWO THUMBS AND IS EXCITED FOR BEING HUMAN ON SUNDAY?! THIS PAPILIO_LUNA RIGHT HERE!

I am woefully deficient in the icon and gif department for this show, though.

HIGH FIVE.

I got a whole bunch of Being Human gifs a while back. Annie has the best expressions.

I still love HIMYM, but I definitely agree with you that the way they handled Barney/Robin was awful. I think that the writers broke them up because it changed the feel of the show. A lot of the humor from the show comes from Barney being... well, Barney and it was hard for the character to be that way while he was in a relationship. I get it. BUT I loathed the way they broke them up. They broke up because they didn't like that they weren't hot anymore? WHAT? That was awful. There were a billion more legitimate reasons why they could have broken up. Maybe they realize that they both are fail at being in a relationship and shouldn't be in one right now. THAT makes sense. The whole getting fat and ugly thing was ridiculous.

Yeah, the breakup episode made me go "LOL.... FALSE." And then all the followup being about how much more hilarious Barney as a womanizer is just made me go "...meh."

C). That it could be worse. I mean, we could be Leafs fans.

This seems to be a common thread with hockey fans everywhere, except those from Toronto. The Oilers are at the bottom this year, and even we're like PSHT THOSE STUPID LEAFS. :D

I. BEST MOMENT EVER. Seriously, why is CBC not making this show? All Canadians would relate to it and all Americans who get CBC would watch for the same reason we love Hoarders and Steven Segal: Lawman (i.e. car crash theory).

III. I can only think of one episode where I genuinely liked Barney as an asshole before he fell for Robin--The Bracket. That was a clever use of him being a player, and mostly came down to the group arguing about how awful he is. Other than that he's (dare I say it?) boring. NPH is SO much talent; they need to let him use it!

Bleh. You haven't missed much with this season. It's been not entertaining.

I. RIGHT. GENIUS. The CBC continues to let me down.

III. YES. He could be funny and you're right that NPH is really talented, BUT... I found him most likable and most funny when he liked Robin and didn't know what to do about it.
