I'm useless for the rest of the day

The best thing I've seen in awhile

If they had Dominic West read the entirety of Pride and Prejudice I would actually become a coffee drinker.

HEE!

BWAHHHHH! This is magic. Makes me want to rewatch all the Buffy seasons (except for maybe the last two).

Olive Oil

The wee little brother and I went to see The Hangover yesterday.

He insisted on taking the free bus instead of driving. I, on the other hand, am a lazy bum and did not want to walk the three blocks to the stop in the 105 degree heat. He won and we walked to meet the bus. And I am so happy that we did because I got to witness this scintillating conversation amongst two teenage girls and two teenage boys.

Teenage Girl #1 to Teenage Girl #2: "I know how to make your hair grow faster. Don't wash your hair for three days and then wash it. And then don't wash your hair for three days and then wash it. And you keep doing that and your hair gets really long and thick and healthy really quick."

Teenage Girl #2 to Teenage Boy #1: "Why is your hair so greasy?"

Teenage Boy #1: "Because I put olive oil in it."

Teenage Boy #2: "Why do you put olive oil in your hair?"

Teenage Boy #1: "Because everyone does it."

Teenage Boy #2: "Why don't you just use baby oil?"

Teenage Boy #1: "Because baby oil isn't all natural."

Teenage Girl #1: "What's olive oil?"

And this is the future of our society

The Zoo...The Zoo

I took my nephew to the zoo today.

I think I got busted by one of those traffic cameras for speeding. I hate those things. It's really unfair that you don't get the chance to talk your way out of a ticket.

But then I saw the creepiest thing I have ever seen in my life and I really wish that I had the chance to take a picture. But I was on the interstate and I had my two-year-old nephew in the car and I didn't really know where I was going so I just stared in awe as I passed by it.

You know those cardboard cutouts of people. This one was in the middle of the field. It was of a baby and it had to be 20 feet tall at least. Luckily someone else got a picture of the baby

Drag Me To Hell

I, the loving aunt that I am, agreed to take my niece to see Drag Me to Hell after the eighteenth time she mentioned it.

**SPOILERS**

I really wish that they had dragged Alison Lohman's character to hell much more quickly. She was amazingly annoying. And I really didn't care for her. I was on the crazy old lady's side.

Zombies and Jane Austen

Why didn't I think of this first?










Truly, it combines two things I absolutely love. Awesome!

Dr. Manhattan is not the Silver Surfer

I went to see The Dark Knight last night.

It was fantastic. Ledger was fantastic. And they showed the trailer for Watchmen which was awesome.

But after they showed the trailer, these two guys a couple of rows in front of me started arguing over whether Dr. Manhattan was actually the Silver Surfer.

I understand not having read the book or knowing who the characters are but the argument was rather inane. Especially given that Dr. Manhattan is blue and the Silver Surfer is (as noted in his name) silver.

However, their argument was a lot more interesting than the rest of the trailers that were shown...so it's all good.
