May. 25th, 2004 05:07 pmJust got back from eating at Mama Fu's. Holy crap, there were these three cuties there, two young upper-class sorority girl looking snowflakes and a total WMC Indian girl. Seriously, she has got to be the prettiest Indian girl I've ever seen. I think she could be a model if she wanted to! I was thinking of going up to her, but I couldn't think of any better excuse other than I'd hate myself in the morning if I didn't try. But alas, I didn't. And its just as well. The hick sitting at the table next to me was all "Damn, where those girls when I was 18?" At first, I thought they were around 22-23, but as they left I realized they prolly were only in their late teens. Which brings me to question one: Am I too old for the 18-21 set? Question two is more of a poll for the ladies: Let's say you're eating dinner with your friends, and a moderately attractive guy (I say attractive, because lets face it, everyone still makes their initial judgements by looks) comes up to you. What can he do to get a favorable reaction from you? And what will totally tank his chances?
But back to my normal lj topics: TV, video games and movies: Watched the Gilmore Girls and Angel finales again. Call me slow, but I finally got what exactly Harmony knew. Which was hardly anything at all. Angel gives her that throwaway line, "I'm going to visit Archduke Sebassis, distract Hamilton for me." So that's all she prolly told him, and it would be easy to figure out what he was intending to do. After all, the rest of the members of the Black Thorn weren't prepared at all for the other attacks. Still, while I wish the finale was longer (or the show was still on), I thought it wasn't too bad. As for Gilmore Girls, I forgot to mention one of may favorite parts was how much Lorelai was spazzing out around Luke. Hysterical! It will suck if they jump ahead a few months come next season though. Because you can't just gloss over their budding relationship! Obviously, the first few dates where both of them know that its an actual date would have the potential for a lot of hilarity to ensue. Or mebbe it'll be just like that one season premiere where Lorelai had that dream where she and Luke hit it off while Rory and Paris were away at that special program and she was preggers with his child.
Anyways, today picked up the new Avril Lavigne CD, Some Kind of Wonderful, the uncut Underworld, and Buffy s6. Why not RotK? Well, the roomie is most definitely gonna pick that up! And seriously, its like every store in the country has that showing on their screens! Some Kind of Wonderful is one of the cooler John Hughes movies. While Lea Thompson was hot back in the day (prime example, the locker room scene where Watts is checking her out), Mary Stuart Masterson was WMC! I mean, if I were Keith, I would totally go for Watts! Its like, what is he, a blind idiot!?
The s6 box set was interesting. The disc with "Once More With Feeling" has some "karaoke music videos", which is actually nothing more then moving the widescreen image to the top so you just have one big black bar at the bottom to show the "lyrics", which are really no different from what the close-captioning shows. Alas, they only did that for "I've Got a Theory", "I'll Never Tell", and "Walk Through the Fire". I was hoping they'd have "I'm Under Your Spell" or "Let Me Rest in Peace".
Underworld isn't all that, but its entertaining enough. And Kate Beckinsale is hot! Though that blonde rival vamp of hers is kinda cute herself. The one thing I couldn't stand about the movie was in the coven's mansion, how there were all these vamps just sitting on their lazy asses in their fineries drinking, hanging out, and acting all haughty. Which is kinda ironic given what a decadent hedonist Abdul is in the DA game. I mean, he sent the Inquisitors to take care of the Tremere problem for him and isn't even doing anything about the Anarch problem or the growing mobs of freaked-out Giovanni roaming the streets. He must look the same way to those deputies, they prolly think he's too busy hanging out at his freaky club and tending to his own twisted depravities instead of doing his job! But getting back to Underworld, "Death-dealer" sounds like a totally awesome job.
