Well, I just watched a really fucking terrible episode of House. The humour/snark on that show cuts both ways - sometimes what comes out of House's mouth surprises a laugh out of me, and sometimes I like it because it's provocative and funny and makes me reconsider some of my own assumptions/prejudices. But tonight's episode was insulting; it wasn'

ITA about House. The House & Wilson show still managed to make me snicker a bit, but all the while I was just rolling my eyes. I mean what the fuck? I have absolutely no clue what they were trying to do there. Sexism is not an amusing foible, guys -- "all guys are like that" is not an acceptable answer. I you can help it. And if she's "stupid" she's better date material? *sporks* Blah.

And now I shall read some fanfiction, to cleanse the palate, as it were.

Watching this directly after Bones has convinced me that all women have tiny bodies and big heads and looking kinda hungry all the time. Ack!

So. Lame. *sigh* however, it did remind me of this rather amusing convo from So I Married An Axe Murderer:

Stuart Mackenzie: Look at the size of that boy's heed.
Tony Giardino: Shhh!
Stuart Mackenzie: I'm not kidding, it's like an orange on a toothpick.
Tony Giardino: Shhh, you're going to give the boy a complex.
Stuart Mackenzie: Well, that's a huge noggin. That's a virtual planetoid.
Tony Giardino: Shh!
Stuart Mackenzie: Has it's own weather system.
Tony Giardino: Sh, sh, shh.
Stuart Mackenzie: HEAD! MOVE! I'm not kidding, that boy's head is like Sputnik; spherical but quite pointy at parts! Now that was offsides, wasn't it? He'll be crying himself to sleep tonight, on his huge pillow.

bahahahahahaha.

I'm with meresy: I have no clue what they were trying to do there. I was so baffled by it, in fact, that I didn't even really comment on it, because I had no idea where to begin. Even the other House&Wilson stuff didn't manage to charm that away.

Also, this didn't show up on my flist for some reason!

*eyes the episode of House that's currently sitting on her utorrent*

Okay, so maybe I'll watch that first and then watch NCIS to cheer me up.
