Oscars

[lynxreign]

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!

I'm pleased you've discussed this with you and come to a conclusion.

So what brought up the poster in the first place then?

[emilytheslayer.livejournal.com]

I went and checked imdb. Shut up. I don't know, he brought it up, not me.

[lynxreign.livejournal.com]

Shutting up now, ma'am.

[emilytheslayer.livejournal.com]

Maybe I was talking to myself again?

[lynxreign.livejournal.com]

Maybe, but it sure seemed directed at me. kaisilverwolf tends to say that to me in similar conversations, so I thought it was me.

[emilytheslayer.livejournal.com]

I just wanted it to be part of the mystery. But it was directed at you. damn! There goes my mystique!

[lynxreign.livejournal.com]

If you want to get the Mystique back you could always paint yourself in blue latex...

[emilytheslayer.livejournal.com]

Don't forget the scales.

[lynxreign.livejournal.com]

So you want me to include scales when I'm pituring you wearing nothing but blue latex? I'm just trying to follow directions here.

[emilytheslayer.livejournal.com]

Dude, whoah, there's no picturing going on here! Conceptualize, don't visualize! (And yes, because the scales hide the nekedness a little.)

[lynxreign.livejournal.com]

Oh, right. "Conceptualize". That's what makes it "art". Got it.
I'll follow those instructions when I get home. I should try to think about work while at work.

[head58.livejournal.com]

Yes, because a thread with 140ish comments by the 3 of us is clearly a sign that we're ALL thinking about work today...

[lynxreign.livejournal.com]

I said "should".

[emilytheslayer.livejournal.com]

I'm not at work, you know 'cause I'm online instead of making coffee! I should be doing laundry, and I will, here in a minute. And building furniture.

[lynxreign.livejournal.com]

Ooh, laundry and furniture building. I'd rather be doing that too! What are you building? Why aren't you at school?

[emilytheslayer.livejournal.com]

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.

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

[lynxreign.livejournal.com]

You should comment more! : -)

[emilytheslayer.livejournal.com]

You make it sound like this was my idea! Stop that.

[lynxreign.livejournal.com]

It wasn't?

[emilytheslayer.livejournal.com]

No! You were the one that brought up blue latex! I didn't know you were going to go imagine it on me! This is clearly not my fault. I stay away from latex paint, even in my imagination.

[head58.livejournal.com]

Oh, this won't end well...

[lynxreign.livejournal.com]

It won't? Shouldn't you be in your bunk?

[head58.livejournal.com]

I'm too afraid for your life.

[lynxreign.livejournal.com]

My life? Why? I asked for clarification, I received it. Remember to include scales. Done.
