'The Message'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Hee!
Ask my StY about how many times I went off on him for leaving one cereal bowl and spoon soaking in the sink overnight after I'd washed all the dishes before I went to bed. Waking up to one dirty dish instead of a clean sink made me, ah, inappropriately angry. Of course, the fact that he always did it, after we'd "talked about it," just made me madder.
StY?
Son the Younger. As opposed to Son the Elder.
We don't believe in value-added descriptives like Number Two Son, etc.
Crap. Every time I think I'm about to get up and start being productive, the cat gets comfortable trapping me on the sofa.
Ooh, yeah, I get that one too.
Really, living by oneself really lessens the Peeve for me. But it all comes out at work or the road.
I had the World's Stupidest Ushers last weekend. I wanted to bang their heads together, and watch them cry. Grr.
Someone had mentioned that the Krumholtz character didn't have the right body language -- I'm assuming there was stuff revealed about his character in the earlier eps that doesn't jibe with how he moves? He seemed fine to uninitiated me.
'Twas I. Last week he was hunched over his calculations and scurrying from blackboard to blackboard like Igor. I got the impression that the character isn't meant to connect to the world like the rest of us--he connects through numbers, and is, for lack of a better descriptor, borderline autistic. In last night's ep he had no self-restrictive body-language in a couple of long shots. He could have been Mr. Average Surfer Dude. A small thing, but for me, it jarred because it was at odds with the way the character was set up previously.
You know playing "Blood, Sugar, Sex Magic" really loud in the morning does wonders for one's outlook on the day.

Why, do you now plan on having all four today?
OOh, that's a good CD. Good memories....the ones that remain, I mean.

Did you see the pilot episode? Because I saw the same discontinuity after watching last week's ep and then watching the pilot. In the pilot he's more like he was last night.
