As an Buddhist Christian Indian who is one of my Mormon husband's 14 wives, I believe I have far more reason to want to kill everybody than any stinking Muslim.
I mean, it's Sea-MAN for Christ's sake.
I am going to completely agree with you on MGMT. I can even hear how Flash Delirium could be an awesome song, and then they just go do something else.
As for the rest, don't you know how hard a life Gabourey has had? How could you say those things!
(J/K - I know from the monologue now that Gabby is not Precious. Also from common sense.)
I completely disagree. I actually think Gabourey did a great job (and I loved the promos too!) I will concede that she seemed very nervous, and that she is in the same vein as athletes who are just not trained performers. Yes, she was nominated for an Oscar, but I don't know that she's an Actress like Meryl Streep is an Actress. I think prior to Precious she was just some girl that auditioned and happened to be really good in the movie.
So I actually considered it more of a Jon Hamm type deal, where I was excited but not sure which was this was going to go, and was pleasantly surprised. Unfortunately for everyone she wasn't a surprise comedic genius and she doesn't have cool ice running through her hot, delicious, smoky veins - ahem, sorry got carried away with the image of Jon Hamm's veins filled with icy BBQ sauce or something.
Basically, I just saw a girl from an underrepresented group getting her moment and trying really hard. I know I've heard her say how much it is a dream of hers to work with Tina Fey and how she idolizes her, so I could see how much this must have meant to her. Yes, she stumbled over lines, but I did laugh at a lot of the things she did. And you have to admit that Gabourey's attempt was miles ahead January Jones' paralyzed deer in the headlights show.
Stephen Baldwin is not the only one with an embarrassing tween star-related tattoo.

That seriously was a nice boat. I was like, "Why the heck aren't they just sailing the nice boat home? It has canned food and everything."
Also, how come Mocke can't leave the island, but he can take a boat to a different island? And doesn't Man In Blocke seem evil than Man In Black OG? The first guy seemed nice enough, if not a little annoyed. Fake Locke straight up wants to smokestab someone in the face.
So many questions!!! So little time!!!!!!
I DO have Time Warner! I found that it will let me go under "Record Series Options" and change the end time up to 2 hours after start time. So I set Community to that, and hopefully it will work next week!
This reminds me of a sad story. (I'm into telling stories today. It's probably because the other option is actually working on my resume, because I'm unemployed. I'm a real winner.)
After my grandfather died, my father handed out his collection of cookbooks to my siblings and me. To my younger, recently married brother, he gave fantastic Japanese books filled with authentic sushi recipes from my grandfather's time living in Japan. To me, he gave a books about cooking for one. This may have been one of those books, but I don't know anymore because I set them on fire. FML
I'm going to complaingum for a minute about my DVR. Living in the Central Time zone, I'm not often ready to settle in for a night of TV at 7pm. Also, I hate commercials. But anyways, I'm not sure if this is a My DVR thing or an NBC thing, because it seems to mostly happen on NBC.
What happens is that when my DVR stops recording, say, Community, and starts recording Parks & Rec, it cuts off about 10 seconds at the end. I don't know why because the DVR is literally still running. But the recording always cuts off. And since that's where they put the little funny extra bits, it always always always get cut off right before the end and I miss it. It's so annoying! I tried to fix it by having everything finish and start 1 minute later, but then it just cut off the beginning of the next show. Also, I can't overlap because my DVR only has 2 tuners, and they're both being used on Thursdays because it's so jam-packed with shows.
Does anyone have a suggestion for this? I hate having to sit through tons of ads on Hulu just to get to the last 30 seconds of the show.
Also, funnygum - I guffawed at last week's Parks & Rec when Jerry split his pants and farted. I don't often literally LOL, but this totally got me. This week didn't have one of those moments, but I did love Ron Swanson pouting over being hungry after he already ate the trail bacon.
Jack's daddy issues seem a lot less prevalent, he won't have the post-Island meltdown, and he has a son. Sawyer is a cop instead of a con man, so his life at least took a better turn. Claire seems to be coming to terms with having a baby, and will soon be reunited with her father's family. Hurley is a lucky guy instead of an unlucky guy. And who gives a fuck about Kate?
At any rate, they don't seem to be any worse off for not having had Jacob in their lives. YET, of course, but what I was really getting at is where is the evidence of all the evil leaking out into the world that Jacob seems so preoccupied with. So, if the "evil" is buried under the ocean, then let's just blow it up again in Present Day Actual Island world.
I was positive that the guy who bought Alpert had the surname Whitmore, but then I rewatched and it was Whitfield. How annoyingly close!
Anyways, it would have made more sense if this was set in 1767, or earlier even. But I could get the New World reference if it was Whitmore and he was intentionally setting out for the Island.
Ok, so two questions. Or, only two questions for now, as I still have a million questions:
1) So Richard Alpert basically does not get any more information than this for another 140 years (aka, a Tweetury)? No wonder the bitch has gone crazy.
2) Ok, so in Bizarro LA the Island has been destroyed by a nuclear bomb in 1977. Does that mean the evil got out or that the evil is under the ocean? Cause everyone's life seems to be better in Bizarro LA without Jacob having influenced peoples' lives, and basically in general. If it's the former, then whu-huh? And if it's the latter, than we're going to need another nuclear bomb, I guess.
These are genuine questions people. Frankly, I think I'd be pretty satisfied if the last episode was just the Losties sitting in a classroom while Jacob wrote things on a chalkboard and said stuff like, "So you see, the Dharma Initiative represents Modern Man and Season 4 was a metaphor for the struggle between Faith and Science." And Hurley could say things like, "But what the fuck about Walt!?!"
I clearly have no shame, which is why I also have a series of internet videos of myself dressed only in belts making out with my Tommy Wiseau body pillow while the Trololol guy sings in the background. You can watch them here: http://www.youtube.com/jkihaven'tmakethemyetbutiprobablywill.
I actually think I would see this. But then again, I have the New Moon soundtrack because Bon Iver and St. Vincent have a duet on it. So, I'm just weak and Hollywood has my soul.
Keep Calm and Carry On.
