So. Thursday.

I'm feeling so out of it today. I think the sleep thing... um... lack thereof... is finally starting to take a toll other than a mental one. I've got a sore throat, and I feel so lethargic and sore I can hardly function. Plus I'm feeling sort of depressed and just generally yuck. It's one of those days when I sit down to do something, but I can't

I adore the Geico cavemen. I spent about an hour at their new website, poking around, laughing my butt off. But I'm also notorious for having no taste. Can't help loving them.

I'm sorry you're feeling so icky today

[theantijoss]

Thanks, sweetie. *hugs*

As it turns out, a lot of my friends like the Cavemen! I had no idea!

Feel better, hon.

I don't like Hilary because I don't like a lot of her policies. It's that simple. (Then again, I'm not crazy about anybody running.)

[theantijoss]

Thanks, sweetie. *hugs*

I'm never crazy about the political candidates, because it's the system that's broken, and plugging in new players changes little to nothing. I'm concerned about Obama's lack of experience, but frankly, at this point I think that may be in his favor in my subconscious.

I got really turned off by Hillary when I heard her speak at a reproductive rights rally a few years ago. The kind of wishy-washy, capitulating language she used, like we should have to apologize for being in control of our medical fate, gave me the creeps. I think she would sell women out in a split second for an extra slice of power.

Which brings me back to my whole Internalized Misogyny thing.

So, I have a question. Does anybody on ANY of my friends' lists find the Cavemen from the Geico commercials amusing? At all? I'm still flabbergasted that they greenlighted a SERIES about them. I bet they don't make it past the pilot, 'cause dude. It's just not funny. I find them so annoying now that I can't remember if the original joke ever was funny!

*raises hand* Yes, I find them funny, in a mildly amusing way, not a bust a gut laughing way. But trying to stretch a one punchline joke into a half-hour sitcom? Destined for failure.

[Yes, I can have a really weird sense of humor - ask my brother. On second thought, don't. Wouldn't want to scare you off for life, lol.]

[theantijoss]

Well, I certainly wouldn't judge -- I like some pretty weird stuff myself. *G* Honestly, I was just curious, because I didn't know anyone IRL that liked them, and I wondered how they got to be a series!

Will you think less of me if I say I like the cavemen? I like when the one is so excited that Tina is at the party and he thinks they're getting back together!

Not for an entire sitcom, though. Best in small doses.

[theantijoss]

Of course I wouldn't think less of you, silly. You know some of the things I enjoy. ;)

I was honestly curious, because I didn't know anyone IRL that wasn't sick of seeing them, so I wondered how the hell they got a sitcom!

I definitely snickered at them the first few times. Especially the one in the therapist's office.

The cavemen are stupid.

I shouldn't be surprised that people staying on LJ are being mean to those leaving. *sigh* I'm staying--though I do agree thenyxie's post and the principle may become an issue for me, too--but I wouldn't ever say anything bad about people who are leaving! I started journals elsewhere just in case everyone leaves LJ! I don't wanna lose anyone.

*sigh*

In conclusion: People are stupid.

[theantijoss]

I know I should never be surprised how mean and petty people can be, and yet I always am!

I'm having a *very* difficult time keeping up with two friends' lists. I honestly don't know how long I can keep it up. But LJ just stepped over lines I'm just not comfortable with, and I don't even want them to have me as a statistic to use in sales pitches, you know?
