That would be a sad world to live in.
Natter 73: Chuck Norris only wishes he could Natter
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
So I've started watching X-Files while using the elliptical because it's Amazon Prime and I've never actually watched any before. Watching that while seeing our beagle sleep on the sofa made me think of a sure thing new TV show. I call it the B-files. It stars a cute, clever beagle who belongs to a FBI agent played by Emily Kinney because she's ridiculously cute and would probably look really cute doing cute shit with a cute beagle. Anyhow, the beagle helps break the case every week. Of course the FBI agent has a partner played by Grant Imahara because he's cute too, not technically an actor but that's okay since he'll be upstaged by the beagle anyhow, and he keeps trying to solve the case with robots. So you've got a cute beagle interacting with robots and solving crime--ratings gold. I figure I should pitch it to Animal Planet because they're woefully short on crime procedural shows.
Oh, man. FUCK CAPITALISM. WHY DO I GOTTA GO TO WORK????????
Signed, dogs woke me up at 2am for a potty break.
Also, my last REM cycle was devoted to reading ads for a sex toy that also had a setting for fake scat play, and the ad, which became a TV ad, because I was dreaming, was showing the poop setting and saying all the ways you could use it, which included "on cake!"
Not the dream I wanted to wake up on, brain.
It stars a cute, clever beagle
Perhaps a mutant cute, clever beagle, to enable the whole "clever" factor? Ursula Vernon, a writer and beagle owner, describes hers as "a single brain cell attached to a nose." Otherwise, excellent show idea! I'd definitely watch the pilot
Actually, though, I think a wider range of famous men are considered attractive- from Steve Buscemi to Matthew Bomer-- than women which is sort of from Mindy Kaling - Keira Knightly or something. I can't think of who is the "most beautiful woman" right now. But I can't think of very many weird looking women even working.
Also, Channing Tatum's WIFE is REALLY PRETTY.
See, Channing Tatum's wife, like Channing Tatum, doesn't do it for me.
Mark Ruffalo's wife, on the other hand? Yes, please.
Also, wow, Chris Evans brought one of his BFFs from childhood as his date, and dude. She was really spectacularly hot. Like, really, really, really hot.
There's a wider variety of attractive coming out of England, but not that would get work here so much. See also: the difference in casting for the female leads in Broadchurch and Gracepoint.
(I have a HUGE thing for Olivia Coleman, and think she's just gorgeous, for the record, and Anna Gunn doesn't do it for me.)
I think it's a minority of us who find Buscemi sexy. A very small minority, with excellent taste.
OTOH, Peter Dinklage? That's a lot of people. I think it's the dreamy eyes.
Ice day #2
Still in bed.
Yesterday Mac and I did nothing. Today I swore we would do something. Not a great start.
But my head hurts like woah.
I had a sex dream last night about someone I knew on my junior year abroad (fall 1992) and have not seen or spoken to since spring 1993 (when we had dinner in Rome and he introduced me to Cynar, an artichoke amaro, which in continue to like.) I should note that while this person was a handsome young man, I did not have any romantic feelings for him in 1992-93 (being at the time entangled with another problem), which, again, last time I saw or spoke to him. Oh, subconscious.
To hear the straight guys talk Scarlett Johansson is the most attractive person who's ever lived. She's pretty, but I don't think she's a great beauty of the ages or anything. Lupita Nyong'o and Rita Ora were the women I thought were stunning at the Oscars.
