Weird, I'd seen images from that "Superstore" show, but I had no idea that was America Ferrera in that. She looks totally different!

TV commentary:

Heroes- Weird, when Heroes Reborn started out last fall, and didn't end, I figured it had like a normal 22-24 episode order. Like it would be another half season in the winter/spring. But nope, there's just three more eps, including tonight's. spoiler cut )

Heroes- Heh, so I had actually quit partway into the fourth season because it got way too bad even for me. But I suspect I don't need to know that much about it anyways. spoiler cut )

Obtuse statement for the day: Silver has been great these past couple of months, but decided today to trade her in for her little sister. I feel a little bad, but Hadley just has a prettier complexion and I prefer her petite-ness, Silver was just too tall for my tastes. (I was gonna go with Jinx at first, but decided to make a Thirteen from House reference instead. Though since I'm also using Quorra, that's the second Olivia Wilde themed name)

Is it that weird to name stuff? As I've said before, my first car was the Intimidator, because of the Dale Earnhardt sticker in the back window. Then my Sentra was named Star, since the T was missing in the name, so it looked like Sen Ra, which made me think of Sun Ra and his space themed music, so from that I got starship, and shortened it to Star. And now my Versa is Hiro, because Hiro just friggin went on and on about the Versa in the early 1st season of Heroes.

So watching the commercials for Scream 4 during Archer, how many chyx are friggin' in this? I mean, you have the cute and niced racked Alison Brie and Aimee Teegarden, 90210/Degrassi's Shenae Grimes, the teacher-dating and JB looking Lucy Hale and Britt Robertson, Hayden Panty-Airs, Julia Roberts' niece, Suckeh Stackhouse, Ronnie Mars, Marley Shelton, and of course Courteney Cox (wait, was it always spelled "Courteney"?! Who spells it like that?!) and Neve Campbell.

I'm also amused Anthony Anderson is in this given he was in the Scary Movies. Also, Seth Cohen. Heh, what has he done after the OC? The last thing I remember seeing him in was Jennifer's Body.

So, Hit Girl tweeted a pic of herself and Juliette Lewis, all gussied up which is all well and fine until you remember she just only turned 14 a couple of months ago.

I thought this was well done:



A Disney vid set to Glee's "Thriller/Heads Will Roll" mashup. I think the creator did a pretty good job of synching up the lyrics with appropriate scenes.

A comment by [livejournal.com profile] propace on FB sparked a convo about top TV characters one would want to bang. I've had a similar list on here before, but if its just want to do, I think my choices would change. I'd also have trouble settling on number one. So let's make it top 10, in no particular order:

1) Faith Lehane from Buffy/Angel
2) Saffron (yeah, I know that's not her real name, and Browncoats prefer referring to her as "Yosafbridge", but Saffron sounds hotter) from Firefly
3) Kate Austen from Lost
4) Starbuck from BSG (Kara Thrace, not Face from the A-Team!)
5) Remy "13" Hadley from House
6) Cerie Xerox from 30 Rock
7) Julie Taylor from Friday Night Lights (possibly in a threesome with her similarly lusciously melon-ed mother Tami)
8) Rory Gilmore from Gilmore Girls (again, possibly in a threesome with her blue-eyed, brunette mother, Lorelai, which I know breaks my similar heights/different hair rule, but I'm willing to make an exception)
9) Katherine Pierce (or I guess Elena Gilbert, though I'd prefer the vamp over her human doppleganger because I assume she'd be more naughty!) from Vampire Diaries
10) Santana Lopez from Glee (which would automatically include Brittany given their relationship)

Anyways, that convo sparked another convo about what TV characters would you actually want to date (surprisingly not started by me) but that list would go:

1) Blair Waldorf from Gossip Girl
2) Rachel Berry from Glee
3) Annie Edison from Community
4) Taylor Townsend from the OC
5) Summer Roberts from the OC
6) Chloe O'Brian from 24 (Ida know, I've always been strangely attracted to her)
7) Chloe Sullivan from Smallville (I'd put the similar Veronica Mars, but she can be such a huge bitch at times, and not in the way I like!)
8) Elle Bishop from Heroes. (I know, isn't that a more insane and bitchier Kristen Bell character than the aforementioned Veronica Mars? What can I say, I'm a sucker for hot, broken girls)
9) Winifred Burkle from Angel
10) Adrianna Tate-Duncan from 90210

Is it odd that a good portion of my "want to do" list are sociopaths and/or killers, and my "deeper connection" list is mostly full of neurotics and weirdos, many of which have deep seated emotional and psychological issues?

Frickin frick, I must be going senile or something! Sporcle quizzes:

Name the child star from the modern day pictures- 11 out of 24? That's less than 50%. If I just didn't know them, that would be fine, but there were a few I knew who they were and I just couldn't get the names to come to mind!

Name the Surname of these Cartoon characters- 11 out of 20, which is at least more than 50%, but not that much. I could not friggin remember Nelson from the Simpsons and Dale from King of the Hill's last names! I didn't know Ren had a last name, And for some reason I thought the Jetson's one was the rival of George Jetson's boss because I thought they were trying to be all alliterative.

TV commentary:

Heroes- Actually watched this ep even though I hadn't seen the last two eps because I heard it was about Hiro going back to try and save Charlie the waitress who is all of a sudden his one true love again. (Like they totally forgot about her when he went into the past and fell for the princess chick, but now they bring her up again?)

spoiler cut )

Gossip Girl- Woah, is it me, or did Leighton Meester look especially cute this ep? Though she was dressed kinda funny in the clips from her upcoming video. Like I didn't realize how un-ample she was. And because I'm a hardcore Dair-shipper and will take what I can get, it was interesting when Blair and Serena were having it out, her first argument about how she doesn't like how she's changed is to tell Serena she's been drifting away from "Dan and her family". I mean, its kinda odd for her to single him out, and in a way that implies that even though she acts like she disdains him, she sees him as someone who's a good friend for Serena.

TV commentary:

Heroes- Wow, actually some interesting developments this ep.spoiler cut )


Glee- Intersting change of pace for the weekly Glee itunes song releases. The last few songs have been heavy on Finn and Rachel, thought you can't blame them because Lea Michele is an amazing singer. But this week we get another Mercedes song, and finally a Quinn song:

Jill Scott's Hate on Me- this is the Mercedes song. Now Amber Riley is an incredible singer, in a different way than Lea Michelle, she's got an amazing set of pipes. But alas, the song's done well, its just not my cup of tea.

Keep Me Hanging On by the Supremes- They definitely have a varied musical selection on this show. Done by Quinn, it looks like her choices are consistent so far. Between this and "Say a Little Prayer", she seems to be doing a lot of old stuff. I wonder if that's because Dianna Agron did "Fly Me to the Moon" for her audition, which I think is kinda an odd choice for a 20 year old girl. I like her voice, its soft and cute, but it does pale in comparison to Amber and Lea.

The whole having the songs come out weekly on Amazon/Itunes is an interesting trend. I mean, it does decent in the ratings, but its got like 10 songs in the top 200 itunes weekly downloads and 4 songs on the Billboard charts. So that does translate well for them. Plus, its a whole lot of extra revenue.

And what's with Meadow kissing Turtle to make Smash's gf jealous? Wouldn't that just raise Turtle's stock in her eyes, and make him more desirable to her, as opposed to scaring her off?!

One Tree Hill- speaking of Smash's gf, is she mixed? Because when they first showed the dailies of her that John from Cincinatti got for Brooke, I totally didn't recognize her and thought it was some ethnic cutie I'd never seen before. But then when she was at the airport I was all, "Wait, that's Smash's gf!" spoiler cut )

Heroes- So, they added Nanny girl as Claire's new college friend, but I don't like how they dress her, it makes her look all gawky. I mean, she looked kinda hot on that one ep of Californication I saw, and these bikini pics from whatever magazine they're from looked kinda hot. spoiler cut )

So before work, had to buy some new earphones because once again I accidentally washed my current ones in the wash. I also ended up washing my last tube of aveeno lip balm. That's the brand that seemed to work best for me (chapstick wasn't cutting it), but all the places I hit before work didn't have it. The cutie at Walgreen's said Burt's Bees was very popular, though she as a "blistex girl" herself. Decided to try the Burt's since I'd tried Blistex before and was curious if the former would work better.

But wonderful, first day on the new shift and we get a big ass problem.

G-D and effin eff-eff. I hadn't gone to hiptop3.com in a while, so I didn't friggin' know there's a new Sidekick LX coming out in less than a month! Its thinner, 3G, w/GPS, bluetooth 2.0 with A2DP standard and a bigger better screen, and a better video camera. It can use the SDHC memory cards now, so now you can go all the way up to 16 gig in there. The media player can do streaming audio and video now. The web browser doesn't support flash, but you can view youtube vids on it now. It also comes with a "social app" bundle of myspace, facebook, and twitter, although there's no monthly charge now.

But frak me, since I upgraded last year, I can't get the special $199 get it before it hits the street price. As much as I'd like to get it, upgrading again even at the lower price if I could've would be pretty retarded.

24- Ah, looks like Elisha Cuthbert's back on 24. I'm a little skeptical of ain't it cool's comment about she being as old now as Jack was when the show first started. Someone's smoking something. Yeah, the 24 verse is several years ahead given each season skipped ahead more than a few years. Ain't it cool said its been 17 years, but I don't think its that far ahead, is it?! I guess it has been almost 8 years since the show started, and a couple of times they had three or more years pass between seasons. Even if has been 17 years, no way was Jack 33 when the show first started (going by the previous claim, given she was 16 first season, so 16+17=33) That means he had her while he was still in high school, and we know that's not the case because his father was all ready to groom him to succeed him in the corporate world, and everything was going along that path (and I'm sure a knocked up teenage girl would throw a wrench in those plans) when Jack decided to join the military.spoiler cut )

Heroes: Ah, I was trying to figure out where I saw young Angela before, but I guess it was that ep of Supernatural with the family in the house with the creepy kids living in the walls? Oh, and apparently she's also the chick Jamie Lynn Spears got fired off her show? Young Alice was of course the girl who played young Sarah Silverman/Sarah Silverman's daughter on the Sarah Silverman show, who is of course also the younger sister irl of Luke's daughter on Gilmore Girls. I know I know young Charles from somewhere though. According to imdb, he was in that one ep of Cold Case where he was one of a set of brothers that got killed over the span of a decade (one of the more depressing and tragic eps of that show) But I swear I've seen him in something else. Maybe its because from some angles he looks like a bigger Phil LaMarr.

Whoa, its my 3000th journal entry. Crazy, eh? 3000 pages of ridiculousness in about 8 years.

I was trying to look up dream interpretation stuff online, specifically the meaning of flooding roads. I had this dream last night I was driving down a road that started flooding, and I've had dreams like that before. I'd be driving down some coastal highway and the ocean would rise up and consume it. I'd still drive on through to the end on sheer force of will though, my mind keeping the car afloat. But apparently flooding is connected with feeling overwhelmed?

Of course, the other part of the dream involved me getting involved with this married chick who had a kid. Or rather, I had apparently liked her in the past, but she didn't feel the same way back then, then she married some other dude and had a kid with him. But I guess she was getting bored or something, because now she was putting the moves on me, but I was skeptical and thought I was just imagining it. I did get along with her kid. Oh, and we were part of a nomadic space fleet, and the majority of the people were going to set down and give up technology like a bunch of retarded luddites, but a small group would stay on one of the ships to explore the stars, and I was going to be one of those explorers, she was trying to convince her husband to stay on the ship so she and their kid could stay on the ship, and it started becoming obvious that she only wanted to stay because I was staying. Though her husband was still oblivious.

TV Commentary:

Heroes- One thing that never made sense to me on Heroes (Or X-men, or other comics). So if people started manifesting amazing and wondrous abilities, why would you try to lock them up or exterminate them? You should start to get them breeding (with themselves and norms) to make more of them or see if there would be some sort of gene therapy to give those who don't yet have powers powers! It just makes cents! Scientifically, I think if people started developing powers, I would see it as the next step in evolution, and these people are the new torchbearers of the human race. Why would you seek to eliminate the betters in favor of those who are evolutionarily behind?! Sure, some people are all, "but people with powers could be dangerous!" But I don't think that step in evolution would have been reached if not for some divine plan. We just have to take a leap of faith that it won't cause us to wipe ourselves out. There may be problems and casualties, but in the end, I think humanity would grow for the better. I think these negative nancies are just being lazy. The transition from homo sapien to homo superior would be a rocky one, but we just need to be vigilant. And those who want to stop it from happening are just lazy morons who'd rather take the easy way out instead of seeing the glory of a newer, better human race!

But on to the actual ep. Is it me, or has Claire been looking cuter these past few eps? Is it the bangs? Has she maybe lost some of baby fat from her face? She's still kinda stumpy though. spoiler cut )

HIMYM- Heh, so I guess after Uriel got killed in Supernatural, he started running a lazer tag arena in NYC? It was funny to see them poke fun at Lethal Weapon and all the buddy-cop action movie cliches that movie spawned. And we got some subtle BrOTP as well- Barney and Robin making the silly two-person phone message, them going to the rave together. And while I do like the sappy stuff, it makes a better case for the BrOTP than showing Barney secretly pining or obvious references that he's in love with her.

Gossip Girl- Ooh, I liked this ep for an obvious reason. spoiler cut )

24- What's with the Secret Life people showing up on 24?! First Ashley and Amy's dad is one of the Cabinet members, now Adrian's dad is one of the mercs working for Jon Voight? And is it me, or was the Cisco product placement totally clunky. Its like, "Okay, madame president, with webex secure digital signature, you can sign this important document made over at FBI HQ immediately from the White House, so it can be ready to use right then!" Its even worse than the Cisco video conferencing product placement from a couple years ago. And ah, that Olivia, acting all coy like she didn't want the provisional chief of staff position when she totally does.

Chuck- Hmm, interesting developments this episode. spoiler cut )

24: Alas, my firearms knowledge is still lacking, as I could not tell what kind of assault rifle Jack was using at the loading docks. I mean, its obvious its an M4-based design, but which company? Someone smarter than I could prolly tell from the buttstock, as it doesn't have the standard M4-style collapsible buttstock. I've seen it before, but I don't know off the top of my head. I did notice the top picatinny rail had an Aimpoint red dot sight (alas, I couldn't tell you what model) mounted on the front, plus had the 3x magnifier on the snazzy flip mount. I always thought that was a cool set up. Reflex sight for quick target acquistion in CQB, but if you need to do some short-range sniping, flip the magnifier in front of it and take the shot!

Anyways, I'm not sure the shootout made sense. So Tony had the MP-7, while Jack had the M4-type carbine. Why was Tony being the one to cover Jack?! Jack had the better weapon for that. I mean, its got the range on the baddies, so it would make more sense for Tony use that to cover, and for Jack, who started sneaking around the containers and if he met any resistance it would be at close ranges, to use the MP-7. Also, if they were wanting to steal the truck so they could use that to get away with the bio-weapon, why would they shoot at the guy driving the crane? They didn't have any backup and they were outnumbered. I thought the idea was to pin the opponents down long enough so they could get to the cab and drive off? So shooting the guy loading the container before he's actually put it on the truck kinda defeats the purpose!
