Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Trust my rage

Steph, is it wrong that "death likes carrots" made me laugh?

On a more serious note,I'm sorry you and The Boy have had so much loss this year.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Martin Freeman naked stand-in

This was the only storyline in the whole film that did not make my skin crawl.

I thought Emma Thompson crying to Joni Mitchell was amazing acting.

“Not dead yet!”

I thought Emma Thompson crying to Joni Mitchell was amazing acting.

It was. I liked all of the stories except for Colin the idiot who went to America. I'm fully convinced that Richard Curtis was once cruelly dumped by an American girl because he tends to portray them pretty badly, with the exception of Laura Linney's character, who was just unbelievably tragic.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Colin? But he's GOT A BIG KNOB!!

t snickers

Colin is so universally awkward that he's barely discernable from American boys who do the same thing. My brother once went to Amsterdam to get high and laid. Not neccessarily in that order.

call me jacki; zuisa is an internet nick from ancient times =)

Colin's story is annoying and definitely my least favorite of the movie, but I find the movie overall just so charming. It makes me happy. And once in a while, that is absolutely sufficient criteria for my liking a movie.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The storyline with Chiwetel Ejiofor is the one that sent my eyes crossing and hard.

And what's with all the carrots?

(I know I mention it a lot, but I really am having a hard time dealing. It's...not what I expected. Sorry for the whole "death likes carrots" thing.)

No need to be sorry, love. I wish that I could do something to make you feel better. Um . . . boobies?
