Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

Just tried HBO On Demand. It doesn't like me.

That is okay. I can wait for Sunday, because I am all full of moral fiber and personal restraint and patience and such.

Why? Why doesn't HBO On Demand like me? I am a good person!

Apparently, individual cable companies get to decide what goes on HBO On Demand. It's your cable company giving you no love.

Hmm. I'm on DirectTV, which has fewer cables ...

It is a plot perpetuated by Aussies in power. I knew it! Frackin' Aussies!

I could never get it to work because I'm so yo-tech. Besides I'm feeling all McCluhany and communal experience-like about the shit right now. Do you feel me?

Sure. Give me some more about about how you is too young for the discussion. It is becoming a torrent.

Ok, so I studied media in college. And I'm not especially young anymore, just know more what to do if I wanted to kill somebody than bring him home because Steven Bochco warped me while Brooke Shields and Princess Diana warped my friends, okay? But you know, thanks anyway.

Math, where all the variables are named after tabloid headliners. I can do this.

BTW, for the on-lookers, you do not have to be as weird as erikaj or me to get into The Wire. You need only be as weird as Kristen, which is only middlin'-weird.

We're being a little off-the-hook today, it's true. I'm not always like this, either. Except for the Wire likes carrots...that's forevah. I'm 32, Gus. But an impaired 32, so that probably works out to an AB 22 on some scales and Cool Lester Smooth's age on some others.ETA: Off the Hook= bugfuck crazy in cornerspeak. As in: Damn, that crippled white girl is totally off the hook.

Whoah! I had the number.

It is getting all numeric, up in here.

Just as an aside, I had an email from one of my family on the Irish side who lives near Dublin. He says I can send him early Wire or run for cover. It is up to me. Those Irish guys kinda scare me.

Damn. I need to drop Natter and all this other Buffista stuff except Premium.

Here is my Sunday night:

Some movie I skipped in the theatres. Wire, Brotherhood.
