Oscars

So, I heard Jon Stewart sucked. I heard the whole thing was bland and boring and all the wrong movies won. Is this true? I couldn't be bothered to watch it myself, only tuning in for Charleeze Theron's extra-dress-on-her-shoulder and lots of plush penguins. Honestly, that and Dustin Hoffman's stoned performance are all I saw. That and Mr. Stewart looking like he was thinking "Is it over yet?" with his Desperate Housewives crack.

A sports commentator made the suggestion, and I like it, that instead of traditional oscars we change the selection process to a playoff format. I like the idea. They can be seeded by nominating vote strength. You can do an award show every few days that only takes an hour and drag it out for 3 or 4 weeks! And it'd still be more interesting!

(And as an indicator of how my day is going, I read through all 168 of them that were there when I went "Huh...")

You should comment more! : -)

Yes, but with 173+ comments at this point? I'd get lost in the tangle of he-said-she-said-she-said-he-said-she-sells-sea-shells-by-the-sea-shoreness of the whole thing...

Oh, I suppose. Or you can start your own thread by replying to the initial post!

Up unitl you said you read the whole thing I was starting to think I could say whatever I liked and only [livejournal.com profile] head58 or [livejournal.com profile] emilytheslayer would ever know!

But... the interesting stuff is all buried in the collapsed comments!

I like to keep people on their toes (not tows, or twos, as I initially typed and then corrected myself).

Well, you could read them a thread at a time and post to them as though each comment was new...

I like to keep people on their twos. I'm not sure what it means, but it seems challenging.

I invented the word and now I have no idea what you're talking about! lol

That said, I'm sure you're right.
