It looks like the Dick Flick to end all Dick Flicks, which I don't mean as a criticism, just a comment on the genre.
Was it Rose McGowan in stripper gear sailing through the air and launching a rocket from her leg-gun at a horde of zombies that gave it away? ;-)
Laga's a movie theater manager, so she screened their print of
Grindhouse
this morning. Her comment: "OMFG Grindhouse. This isn't a movie it's a theme park ride."
When someone who knows I'm a Jew wishes me a happy easter, I'm just going to say, "you're welcome."
BWAHAHAHAHAAAA!!!
"You killed our Lord and Savior!"
"And what did he do then? He rose from the dead and became the foundation of your religion. So what do we say...?"
"*mumble*thankyouforkillingourlordandsavior*mumble*"
"You're welcome. Here, have some candy shaped like a pagan fertility symbol."
I usually reply that I'm pretty bored too, what with having to say the same thing over and over again ("Be quiet. Sit down. Get rid of the gum. Be quiet.")
I usually say, "Oh. usually kids say they are bored when they don't get something, like it's too hard for them or something." Which is true when it comes to books at least. And it shuts them up, I'll tell you what.
And it shuts them up, I'll tell you what.
Hee. I like this. It's especially apropos for us, because our classes are voluntary. Dude, if you think you'd be more interested in sitting out behind the grocery, go for it. If you think you're interested in music, come ready to work.
ION, I'm so glad I got one of the end of the run Buffista cookbooks. I think I'm going to use this week with the SO gone to try out recipes I don't think he'd like. But leafing through it to make my menu before I eat lunch was not the best idea. I am now ravenous.
And the Chicagoistas don't have a cat herder. Maybe we need a Buffista exchange program.
I really shouldn't be laughing during rehearsal for The Diary of Anne Frank.
And it shuts them up, I'll tell you what.
I think mine would respond, "Yeah, well, I don't get it. It's too hard!" and then stare at me as though to say, "So there, stupid." Somehow they think "I don't get this" is the end of the conversation, rather than the beginning. I'll give it a whirl, though.
Caveat: I have some really hard-working, dedicated kids who come and ask questions and get extra help. And others who really DO get it.
So my supervisor sent me an e-mail about how the big bosses said we could leave after 3pm if we wanted. It's now after 3, and I think the only reason I wasn't out the door 15 minutes ago is because when I leave, I have to go shopping.
Any Buffistas on LibraryThing want to give me their ids so I can enter them in my Watch List? (I'm Theodosia there, too.)
I don't know that the Bayistas have either a Captain Sanity or a Cat Herder in the tugboat. We have multiple ringleaders, though. ("Wait, I get it, that's a metaphor!")
