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!

Because this week is Spring Break. Spring Break, woo! I have to work later this week or I would be in Florida trying to be part of a Girls With Low Self Esteem video. Or trying to stop it, depending on wether or not they gave me a hat.

So which way does a hat make you swing?

I'd guess it depends on the style of the hat...

So one style makes you protest and another makes you join in? Sounds a bit like Alice trying to decide if she should eat or drink...

And I now have the strangest thing going through my head...

Ellen Klages doing her impression of Karen Joy Fowler speaking/singing Jefferson Airplane's "White Rabbit".

I think we're all better off not asking about that. But, yes, that's probably how the hats work.

I'm pleased that something strange is going through your head. Especially as it is at least ostensibly musical. I love strange music.

I also like that the hats are more catalyst than mere payment.

You have BREASTS, we have HATS!

There's BREAKFAST at the PUB!

What's with the breakfast/pub thing?
And what's your stand on hat getting. Getting a hat makes you join in or protest?

There were really REALLY gramaticaly nightmarish signs all around the karaoke place announcing that you could come to BREAKFAST at the PUB for BREAKFAST. The drunker [livejournal.com profile] allegedly got, the more she mocked them. Loudly and drunkenly. And put the signs (which we had taken down off the walls) on her breasts. The same signs announced that they were now Wi Fi. The club that is, but we took it to mean her breasts were wi fi as well.

The hat thing is from an Arrested Development episode where they spoofed the Girls Gone Wild videos. One of the better episodes of that season. Zach Braff was the one offering to give out hats to girls who would show their breasts. So I guess, I'm in favor of hats.

Wow, wifi breasts! She could make a ton of money with that and it wouldn't even be sexual! I'm sorry I missed the loud, drunken mocking.

Zach Braff was on? Keen!

I figured you were in favor of breast showing, I just wasn't sure if the hats made one protest.
