Talk about bringing sexy back!
Tonight on Top Chef they had to "bring sexy back" to salad, but what they really did was bring sexy back to Top Chef. Because the Quick Fire guest judge was...
SAM FROM SEASON TWO!
HOT-NESS!
About time. Because this season was SERIOUSLY lacking in sexy boys who can also cook for you when the making out is done. Sam & CJ spoiled me.
Lisa is a bitch. Can she please go home? |

This was a good Office. It was appropriately ridiculous.
I love the Dwight master org chart.
Floyd has a partner meeting with Peter Venkman. I love it.
"YOU USED GHOSTBUSTERS FOR EVIL!"
"DON'T YOU DEPRIVE THE GOOD PEOPLE OF CLEVELAND OF AN IKEA! YOU ARE VINDICTIVE, LIZ LEMON!"
Why did they have to write Jason Sudekis off of 30 Rock. I heart Floyd.
There's waaaaay too much good Thursday TV.
It was really only a matter of time before Sawyer made a Long Duc Dong reference, wasn't it?
The Korean word for helicopter is "helicopter"?
"Okaaaaay, dude. Crying at the smoke detector. Leaving now..."
I'm not surprised that guy is back. He must have just ate a bunch a livers again. |

| It's Office Thursday! |

Phyllis REPREZNT the 314!! HOLLA!
|
|
|
| Just me? |
[Apr. 29th, 2008|10:29 am] |
Is it just me, or do "venus" and "pink pearl" sound more like vibrators than cell phones?
It just made me laugh when I heard the commercials that advocate buying one for your mom for mother's day.
So wrong. |

This is fantastic (in that traffic accident sort of way). ABC is coming out with a High School Musical reality show.
I saw the link on the main page of abc.com, and just couldn't resist a click. I think it's just a sort of American Idol rip-off, but with more dancing, maybe? Not the point, I won't watch it anyway, but I found this part of the application HIGH-larious:
"You will need to undergo medical and psychological testing and extensive background checks." Crazies need not apply, a'ight?

Sorry, McKenna, you have to be 16. |

| OFFICE THURSDAY |
[Apr. 24th, 2008|02:24 pm] |
This is my prediction for the season finale (May 15) of The Office:
Oh, it's happening.
Thus have I spake, thus shall it be done.
COME ON, JIM! You've been dating for a year! DO IT! |
|
|
| TOO MUCH TV |
[Apr. 24th, 2008|12:50 pm] |
After the dearth of the writer's strike, it's nice to have my shows back, but tonight is just ridiculous:
The Office
30 Rock
My Name is Earl
Grey's Anatomy
Ugly Betty
LOST
God bless you, DVR. |

| Overly Excited |
[Apr. 17th, 2008|11:13 am] |
Caroline: Hey, Kim? What day is it?
Kim: IT'S OFFICE THURSDAY!
Jen: Gosh, he looks so college-y like he could have been one of our friends. Damn us for not having gone to Brown. |

| Back in the Day |
[Apr. 10th, 2008|02:03 pm] |
In honor of a new Office today--IT'S BEEN FIVE FRIGGING MONTHS! ARRGH!--I went to find some video of the Dunder Mifflin employees back before they were Dunder Mifflin employees.
Enjoy:
Steve (Michael Scott) Carell on The Dana Carvey Show:
John (Jim Halpert) Krasinski in a Kodak Commercial (you have to wait for it):
Jenna (Pam Beesly) Fischer on Undeclared:
Rainn (Dwight Schrute) Wilson on Six Feet Under:
BJ (Ryan Howard) Novak on Comedy Central (couldn't find Punk'd):
Ed (Andy Bernard) Helms on The Daily Show:
Exactly six more hours until The Office.
Yes, I know it's 2:10 but we watch it on DVR, so you have to wait 10 minutes! |

Jen, as a married lady, enjoys living vicariously through we single people. Apparently I wasn't meeting her expectations, because she started giving me assignments.
Which I did not complete.
This appears to have been a mistake.
Jen decided that one of my Boston friends was hot, and wanted me to "hit that" when I was up there. I did not. But I told her that if I move there for school, I will make a better effort for her.
"No. That time has passed. I'm taking it up a notch. If you move there, I want you going after John Krasinski."
WHAT?!? That is not a notch. That's all the notches. You had to carve new notches to take it up to that one.
"But he doesn't even live there."
"I don't care. Buddy up to his brothers."
Apparently now the plan is for me to become friends with his mom so she'll want to introduce her son to the sweet girl she met.
This is bad.
It is not right to encourage stalkerish tendencies. Especially when I have such an expert celebrity stalker right in Boston. Yes, I'm looking at you, Zabinsky. And Katie's indulging me too, by mailing me Boston Magazine (JK's the cover boy this month, being all Clark Kent, which just makes it hit on two for me).
THE OFFICE IS BACK TOMORROW!!

The adorableness of the baby pug saves it.
Christopher Walken made his 100th (says him) hosting appearance on SNL this weekend. He's always good.
That's not your phone Grandpa!
I can't find the Annuale commercial, even though they've already run it twice... So how about an old classic:
Do not taunt Happy Fun Ball:
Yes, that is Phil Hartman doing the voice-over. Don't cry. It will be okay.
Wait, here we go:

| ONE MORE WEEK! |
[Apr. 3rd, 2008|11:31 pm] |
New Office in a week! And the clips tonight look GREAT.
I especially love Dwight. He's trapped in a glass case of emotion.
Favorite bit from the John Krasinski Leatherheads inbetweens:
"He never did anything to me, actually. Never really talked to me, to be honest. Oh! He did once yell 'THROW LIKE A BOY!'" |

Did anybody else notice last night ( joke spoiler, but not plot spoiler )
ETA: THAT WAS THE GREATEST ENDING SCENE THIS SHOW HAS EVER HAD. And Jen called it! She doesn't even WATCH this show! I hope she uses her powers for good and not evil. |

This is a great article. They did a study recently at Duke that showed people reacted to subliminal exposure to well-branded (that is to say, linked in the consumer's mind to particular traits and feelings) logos caused the study participants to behave in a manner consistent with the brand image.
Creativity: Apple v. IBM
WINNER: Apple
Honesty: Disney v. E!Channel
WINNER: Disney
So stare at my userpic until you're not such a lying bastard anymore! ;)
Not that I don't hear ENOUGH from Bob about the superiority of Apple. |

Well, some of it at least.
New episode of Reaper tonight!
"The next time I buy a present for a girl, I need you to punch me in the junk--hard."
"That's the only way I punch."
"NOT NOW!"
"I got two chicks fighting over me. What am I gonna do? Why am I so lovable? SHUT UP."
"You're utterly unthreatening. When you say 'devil' it sounds kinda cute."
"If I got hungry enough, I would definitely eat a dog."
"Would you eat a man?"
"Depends on what man we're talking about. If we're talking about George Clooney, then yeah, because he's gorgeous and I hate him." |

| What you're missing with DVR... |
[Mar. 3rd, 2008|10:03 pm] |
I was in the kitchen getting something to drink when the show I was watching went to commercial, so I didn't fast forward right away. And I saw the end of a commercial for some credit scam website. The fact that the commercial said something about being sure you could afford the payments made me want to read the fine print. Guess what the terms are for their loans: "The APR of a typical loan of $2,600 is 99.25% with 42 monthly payments of $216.55 with a $75.00 origination fee.*" That's disgusting. Way to take advantage of people in a difficult financial position. NINETY NINE PERCENT INTEREST! How can these people legally advertise when they're clearly loan sharks? If you take out that "typical loan" of $2,600 and pay all of your payments on time, you'll end up paying them back over $9,000 in less three-and-a-half years. That's fucked up.
And then the next commercial was for an acid reflux medicine called Aciphex. Say it out loud: ASS EFFECTS. A pill for people with excess digestive gas production, and you're calling it ass effects. How do these names get out of market research?
*copied exactly from the commercial's fine print. |

| BULL SHIT!!! |
[Feb. 21st, 2008|09:36 pm] |
HE COUNTS?!?!?!?
HE COUNTS AS ONE?!?!?!
THAT IS BULLSHIT!!!!
I called it, but it's still bullshit. |

| Go Giants! |
[Feb. 4th, 2008|09:31 am] |
I woke up Sunday just feeling like I should support the Giants. I didn't really have a favorite going into the game, since I hate football, so this was as good a way to decide as any other--especially since Conan O'Brien ran turtle races three times to three different outcomes (tie, Patriots, Giants).
I DVR'd the game to watch the commercials, but since it inevitably ran long, I ended up watching the end live. Hooray for little baby Eli pulling it out in the clutch. I basically spent the whole two and a half minutes just saying "Come on, little baby Eli!" I don't know how anybody can hate him, he's such a little muffin.
But that coming onto the field for the 1 second they put back on the clock is stupid. If anybody can explain that, I'd appreciate it.
Besides, Tom Brady is a man-whore and his whole team are cheaters. :)
I LIKE THE COMMERCIALS WITH PONIES! Go, Hank! |

Quick favor: Click this fake ad that I made so my Dunder Mifflin Infinity team gets some points in the current competition. Click it a bunch of times. It goes through November 14th.
I have to say, I think this was the funniest Office so far this season. Caroline disagrees. She is wrong.
( Some people think you monopolize the conversation by trying to be funny )
Dear Andrew Bernard:
After carefully examining your application to the Finer Things Club, we are unable to offer you a position at this place and time. We would, however, like to place you on a list in case an opportunity arises when your inclusion could be tolerated. Your position as an ongoing financial patron, however, is yours to cherish.
Sincerely,
The Finer Things Club |
