Damn, everyone's going home for Xmas! Guess it gives me time to start the Mad Men/Big Love/White Collar marathon.

Craig Crawford is on later. He needs a nickname. We have Prettymouf Richard Wolffe, Cutie Chris Hayes, Panda Fineman...ayarane suggested Craig LAWLford, any others?

lady_sci_fi December 19 2009, 01:16:42 UTC

Panda Fineman? Where'd that come from?

ceilidh_ann December 19 2009, 01:17:51 UTC

zestylime uses it on LJ, it's cute. Not sure why, but I'm going with it.

parzi December 19 2009, 01:18:45 UTC

Those are all great shows! I'm caught up totally on Mad Men and White Collar, so I can assure you there is great stuff to be had there. Currently I'm catching up on True Blood and Heroes and then I have a cache of Poirot mystery movies.

Hmm...I can't think of much. I'm not good on nicknames and all I can think of is revert to my otaku days and go Kawaii Crawford~

Two Quick Ones... xxrancid_punkxx December 19 2009, 01:17:59 UTC

Whipped these up while I was still pissed at the lack of Keith tonight.

HEY! Lawrence is awesome, he's great at what he does.

Re: Two Quick Ones... xxrancid_punkxx December 19 2009, 01:21:53 UTC

I do like Lawrence, but Keith has been out too much lately. Since I have time off now, I was looking forward to Keith every night.

parzi December 19 2009, 01:21:35 UTC

Ahaha, was that a mistake or a deliberate tease? Craig is a fine CQ motherfucka.

ceilidh_ann December 19 2009, 01:23:40 UTC

Motion to nickname Craig the CQMF?

quietandmean December 19 2009, 04:11:59 UTC

Second that motion. We are so parliamentarian tonight!

parzi December 19 2009, 01:25:47 UTC

Okay, come on, is it so necessary to have a Tiger story that they report on how he is moping around the house avoiding the world? Are they digging through the trash to find those cereal boxes?

glaciachan December 19 2009, 01:29:21 UTC

Neccessary? No. Stupid? Yes.

lady_sci_fi December 19 2009, 01:29:22 UTC

anyone with a brain would be trying to avoid the world after such a scandal.
Come on, guys, this is not bloody news. I know you want something light-heartened, but there are other cool stories

xxrancid_punkxx December 19 2009, 01:33:50 UTC

I think Countdown covered something with tiger last week when Lawrence was on. I wish they'd give him something interesting to cover, like Maddow's show.

I mean they were talking about bird poop last night. Even that was better than hearing about Tiger Woods.

Blah, the days when there is good trainwreck fodder are days when Keith isn't on.

Aside from Lieberdork's "O RLY?" moment when Al Franken tries to shut him down on the Senate floor for breaching the 10-minute cap... Tinfoil Emperor Beck's going on Jay Leno tonight.

Keith your timing sucks >:(

parzi December 19 2009, 01:32:29 UTC

I know, I really wanted to see him react to Senator Franken's badassery (and McCain's subsequent cane shaking). And whatever Glenn may do on Jay should be hilarious. But not enough for me to risk watching in realtime. But all the people I trust to mock it are going on vacation! :/

ayarane December 19 2009, 01:40:39 UTC

Jay vs. Rush Limbaugh was a mildly amusing trainwreck (mostly because of the Green Car Challenge).

Jay vs. Glenn Beck? Um, no. Even though I look forward to seeing ONTD_P rip it to pieces >_>;;;

<-----GLENN BECK xxrancid_punkxx December 19 2009, 01:47:23 UTC

Why is Jay even wasting his time with Beckerhead? I don't understand this "interest" in him. He was also one of Baba Wawa's "fascinating" people this year.

I think Marlo Thomas said it best on Joy Behar last week: "He's not fascinating, someone who makes death threats on TV is not fascinating".
