She called me a dirty word

geebsHad dinner at Uncle Vito's with the usual suspects. Has a slice of pepperoni and sausage, but also tried something new by having a slice with meatball and garlic. I mean, garlic powder on your pizza tastes good, but actual minced garlic tastes even better.
TV commentary:
So on the island, Jack's side wonders why Sayid and Desmond haven't contacted them yet after a day, when the ship shouldn't be that far away. So Mile and Charlotte call Regina on the emergency number and are all, "Where's the chopper?" and she's all, "We thought it was with you!" Guess they didn't follow the right path off the island or something.
On Locke's side Kate talks to Miles wanting to know what he wants with Ben and if he knows who she is. Miles promises to tell her what he knows of her if he can have a minute with Ben. So she enlists Sawyer's help, who acts like he was tricked as well, so Kate can take Miles to see Ben. And it turns out to be just another one of Miles' money schemes- if Ben pays his 3.2 million dollars, he'll lie and say Ben's dead, and also "take care" of Charlotte, since she's seen him as well. Ben agrees and Kate takes Miles back. Miles reveals he knows all about Kate's past, and the Locke returns and banishes Kate back to Jack.
Heh, she and Sawyer sleep together, actual sleep not sex, and Sawyer is all he can smooth things over with Locke, but she wants to go back. And heh, Sawyer makes the probably true statement that she'll be back in a week when Jack does something to piss her off. HA!
In the flash forwards, Kate's being tried, and we find out she has a son! But on the island, she said Sawyer didn't knock her up. Anyways, Jack takes the stand as a character witness, and vouches for her character, but also perjures himself by telling the lie that he and the rest of the Oceanic 6 have been telling- that apparently the plane crashlanded in the ocean, and he, Kate, Hurley, Sayid, the other 2 of the six and apparently 2 others made it onto a lifeboat and onto a deserted island. The DA is willing to take a plea after Kate's mom is unable to testify against her because of "health complications". So she gets time served and probation, and leaves the courthouse. Is it me, or did she look totally frickin' hot letting her hair down as she left the building?
Jack tries to make a date, but Kate says until he can accept her "son" or whatever, it'll never work. And then she goes home and we find out her "son" is Turniphead!! So, does somthing happen to Claire then?
Heh, browsing youtube, I guess you really can find any cool action sequence on there. I think I've said before that "The Hunted" is an underrated movie. And I thought it was neat before I learned Tommy Lee Jones' character was based off of Tom Brown, whose book we had to read for "Body, Mind, and Spirit" class in high school. While not technically an action sequence, I always thought the Training Flashback was really cool. I guess when you need to put a guy down, you need to put him down good, but still, it seems like overkill! Heart, carotid artery, disembowelment, heart again+spine, groin, then brain? Or weapon arm, heart, both femoral arteries, then lung? I guess its unpossible to survive all of those together, so its the best way to be sure they're dunzo. Apparently the style used in the movie was Filipino Kali, but I don't think it was straight Kali, it seemed like there was a little brazilian ju-jutsu thrown in there as well. But Flips know knife fighting. After all, the etymology of the Marine nickname "Leathernecks" was because the Marines started having to wear straps of leather around their neck to avoid the Filipinos' adept throat cutting (I wonder if that's why "throat cutting" is my go-to threat?) techniques when the US and the Philippines had that little tiff in 1898.
But while I'm on knife fight sequences, two of my other favorite action sequences involving knives from video games or movies is 1) Danny Trejo as the knife wielding assassin in Desperado and 2) The Krauser-Leon knife duel from Resident Evil 4. The latter looks cool, and is one of the awesomer sequences to play through in any video game, ever.
Oh, and if you have your enemy in your crosshairs, its shoot, then quip, not quip then shoot. If you waste your time babbling, his ally will sneak up behind you and take you out before you take him out!
Getting back to Body, Mind, and Spirit class in high school, one of my high school nemeses, Trish was in that class. She was this bitchy cheerleader who hated my guts for some reason. Mebbe because I was friendly with some of her fellow cheerleaders, and she thought I was bringing down their popularity factor or something. Anyways, remember how I said my associates in high school had that point systems thing going on? She was pretty cute, but with her ice queen bitchy attitude, she was hard to "bag". Thus, she was worth a lot on the scale.
So anyways, cut to senior year of high school, and the Halloween Masked Ball. While I still talked to Michelle, she kinda kept her distance from me following the revelation of my little crush on her. But at least she was still talking to me. This was the point in high school where Sara turned all goth and didn't hang out with me at all anymore. So given my luck with girls at the time, I had zero interest in the dance. But my friends were all going, so I thought, what the hell. I was bored the whole time, and just wanted to go home. But then I got dragged off to some after party where I got toasted and started making eyes at this green eyed brunette cutie still wearing her mask from the dance. Of course, so was I. Long story short, we end up in one of the upstairs bedrooms. You know where this is going. ojv('Man, its obvious!') (Apprarently I haven't been using that term in a while according to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
clevemire or phatjoe) Me and the girl drift off to sleep post coitus, and after waking up, realized who we were, me seeing the girl was Trish and vice versa. (How prosaic!)
Anyways, she's acting all disgusted, which made me mad, since if I remembered the night correctly, she initiated things, so I said some nasty things back to her. Though I was skeptical my words mattered to her, I think she was actually kinda hurt by what I said, though she did her best to hide it. The next day at school, we were pissing off our mutual acquaintances by fighting more than usual. Things got worse when Ray-Ray found out. He approached me all congratulatory and saying that shot me ahead in the points race, given her point value. I told him I wasn't playing their game and I wasn't trying to bed her "for points", but he seemed to ignore all that and continue to tell our friends.
So later, she comes up to me ultra pissed and pretty hurt all, "Was that what I was, some trophy you were trying to snag?" I insisted that wasn't my intention, but apparently someone had started saying I "melted the ice queen and made her all wet!" After that incident, she really hated my guts.
