A Moment with My Brother

We're cleaning.  We'll I'm cleaning he's holding the bag.  But in his defense, he's got to carry those heavy bags.

Him:  I want to be knighted.  Like that Sir Ian guy from X-men

Me: You mean the one from Lord of the Rings?

Him: No the one from X-men

Me: That's the same guy

Him:  .....

Me: ..... You can't be knighted, you weren't born in Britain that's a British thing.  They've been talking about knighting Bono but he's not British.

Him:  Well, I just go to Britain become a citizen and THEN get knighted.

Me:  Let me get this straight.  You're going to leave home, fly to Britain, live there for awhile, JUST so that you can get knighted?  Right after the ceremony you're going to hop on a plane and come back to America?

Him:  Yup

Me:  This is a stupid conversation.

Him: No it isn't.

(Our dad from the other room) Yes.  It is.



I hope you enjoyed that moment with my brother, who celebrates his 23rd birthday on the 8th, yay LJ!

#AHS: Cult - Still No Cult

Image
I know.  I know.  There's only been two episodes and I'm already pretty annoyed with American Horror Story.  Here are some suggestions as to what I would do. 1. Two-hour premiere for the first night if things are going to be this slow.  Or back to back night premieres.  Yes, we've had two gruesome deaths but we're not sure what killed them or we're supposed to question ourselves as to who killed them. 2. Shorter seasons .  I'd be fine with a shorter season if it meant more action faster. I guess my millenial brain doesn't like the pace. So far Sarah Paulson is scared of stuff her wife doesn't see and Winter is a terrible baby sitter.  Yawn. This episode we pick up right where the last episode ended with Ally screaming.  Which is a good portion of the first episode.  And there's still no cult.  We knew who the Coven, the Freak Show, the Hotel, the Roanoke Nightmare, Asylum and Murder House were.  We knew where...

Chuck vs The Angry Fans

Image
I love Chuck.  It's one of my favorite shows, it's one of the few shows that actually make me laugh out loud.  So when I saw a twitter post from Josh Schwartz about angry fans with bad ideas I was baffled.  I mean, to me, Chuck vs The Mask was a good episode, it won't win any awards, it isn't a masterpiece but I felt it was a funny and interesting episode.  The elephant on the internet is Chuck and Hannah and Sarah and Shaw.  What in the world indeed?  I'm not worried because Kristin and Brandon aren't staying.  I have a theory that either the both of them or double agents or at least one of them has a secret.  I think the  big issue is about the way that it was done, Sarah and Chuck broke up like five or six episodes ago and they're already with new people.  I can see Chuck doing this, but I didn't see Sarah doing this and with another spy at that!  I mean she burried Bryce, she broke up with Chuck and now she's with Shaw....
