Have You Been Out In Society Recently? 'Cause It's SHIT.

Blog
* Not if YOU'RE there to protect me. No, it really is utter shit. Title is from Russell Brand. That may not be correct English.

* Theresa does another Fables Friday, and it's AWESOME (in part because I know what she's talking about. I have a LOT of comics to read. No, I'm not going to the comic store today....). I love Bigby Wolf. Just putting that out there.

* Megan continues her reign of Super Awesome Jackie Earle Haley pictures, and also makes me wonder if why Victor from Dollhouse looks so sexy holding a baseball bat.

* Hey, remember The Brave Little Toaster, AKA one of the best movies ever except it made me cry constantly because HORRIBLY things happen to the characters? And remember the big scary chomper that was going to chomp the Master (which now that I'm older is a WEIRD thing to call the kid you make toast for, or IS IT?) because he was trying to save his toaster and radio and blankie and stuff? LAMP. This looks like the chomper:

And don't talk to me about The Brave Little Toaster Goes To Mars. I will not acknowledge this travesty.

Life
* I have water in my ear. it's annoying and weird and I dislike it, and have had no success in getting it out. Pity your poor blogger.

Inglourious Basterds
* Quentin Tarantino doesn't think Brad Pitt is a pretty boy anymore. Yeah, I am an epic Tarantino fangirl, and my caring about this is not so much. What I DO care about is that QT says he won't act in movies anymore. Well, other people's movies. That might be good, because Little Nicky made me so sad for him. And me. And Harvey Keitel. But he'll still act in his own movies, right? Right?
I just want Richie Gecko to come back into my life. Is that so much to ask?

Star Trek
* I have no idea what is going on in this painting of Spock:

His teeth are POINTY. And angry. I am so glad this was never an episode of Star Trek. It would have damaged me as a small child. Yeah, there are more, including one of Pee-Wee Herman.

People I Love
* This is the greatest piece of writing ever writ by the hands of mortals. It is about our lord and savior, the high priest of badass, the Chin himself, Mr. Bruce Campbell:
At age 2, Baby Bruce Campbell destroyed the universe, and recreated it in only a day. Where it took God a week, and God did hail to the king baby.

It gets better:
He is currently writing his third autobiography, entitled The Left Chin of Doom, in collaboration with Alan Moore which has gone on a temporary hiatus due to Campbell being flung into the Marvel Zombies universe because of an accident involving The Necronomicon, a Playstation 3, and a cheese burrito wrapped in aluminium foil. As of this moment, he is attemptng to kill as many super-zombies as possible while attempting to pick up as many living super-heroines so they can 'give him some sugar' after.

Follow their advice before reading this article:
You may have been looking for God although you probably knew that.
Please Note: It is common practice to Hail to the Chin before reading this article.


Fandom
* I think I need to stop reading Fanfiction Friday. I thought I had been jaded by the internet. I thought nothing could shock me any more. I thought I could HANDLE the trauma of really bad fanfiction. I was wrong. So, so wrong. This one has Lara Croft, and rape, and cannibalism, and POO.
I am never going to be able to forget what I have read. It's GROSS. SO GROSS. Honestly, don't click the link while eating or drinking. POO. And cannibalism. Oh, and necrophilia. Did I mention that? I need a drink. It's not even 11 AM.

Daily Hot Guy

[Sharlto Copley, who was fucking epic in District 9, and made me cry, and as I keep reminding myself, has NEVER appeared on Flight of the Conchords, but maybe he SHOULD, just to satisfy my crazy. He's very attractive. And a good actor. Requested by Kristamaru, who knows all about aliens and hot guys. TRUFAX.

Stuff To Live
* I find these corkscrews utterly charming:

And I don't think it's sexual. I think he's working out. You know, doing squats. To build inner thigh strength. Naive? Why would you call me that? It's a corkscrew. It can't be sexual. It UNSCREWS CORKS - oh. I withdraw my previous statements.

Writing
Writing a novel is a terrible experience, during which the hair often falls out and the teeth decay. I’m always irritated by people who imply that writing fiction is an escape from reality. It is a plunge into reality and it’s very shocking to the system. ~Flannery O’Connor

WhedonVerse
* Buffy season nine, in comic form! Oh, Joss, I knew you still loved your fans. Right? And you won't let anything bad happen to Topher even though I missed Dollhouse last night because I went out, with people, right? I DVR'd it, so you'll forgive me, and never let anything bad happen to Topher, ever, right? Joss? Hello?

Movie!Fail
* I really, really dislike Paul Haggis. I hated Crash. I hated Million Dollar Baby (except for Morgan Freeman, because he is so wonderful he transcends SHIT, although he should have won Oscars for Shawshank Redemption and Glory)( and I KNOW Clint Eastwood directed this, but Mr. Haggis wrote it, and he also wrote In The Valley of Elah)(which I also dislike, and I didn't know he wrote it. NO REALLY, I actually said to my friend, 'the acting is gorgeous in this movie, but the script sort of sucks'). And yeah he wrote Casino Royale, but he ALSO wrote Quantum of Solace. And he has some new movie coming out, which I will most likely not see, but if I do see it I'll probably hate it. He's a TOOL. Yeah, I went there. And it's got Russell Crowe, who is a fabulous actor, but I still don't like him.
(Side note: Wasn't Million Dollar Baby HIDEOUSLY mis-marketed? I thought it was going to be some inspiring movie about overcoming tragedy and hitting people. IT WASN'T.)

Did you know Blogger has limited the number of tags I can use per entry? I did not. I am very angry about this. Hm.
