Alright. So I'm watching TV and trying very hard to not feel utterly depressed. A task that I'm just not drinking fast enough to accomplish. And since there is basically nothing on friday nights I'm watching 1 vs 100. Normally when I watch quiz type game type TV type shows I get a certain amount of pleasure out of the fact that I am smarter than the average person. With this particular show that feeling has very little pleasure because they seem to have found the dumbest people on the earth to put on their show.

They asked a very very simple money math question and like 8 people managed to get it wrong. 10 nickles is 50 freaking cents. Even Hooters waitresses should know that without working it out on the pad.

I weep for humanity.

Then you aren't trying hard enough man. Stop complaining and start drinking. How many drinks could you have downed in the time it took to type that post? Come on we can do this together, chug chug chug chug...

ok, time for a christmas carol.

Unfortunetly i only know one. You've probably already heard it.... ah well *adopts pretty singing voice* *actually probably sound more like a donkey being circumcised*


Good King Wenceslas looked outside,
Saw that it was raining,
Couldn't find his welly boots,
Spent an hour complaining,
Someone here has nicked my boots,
I can't find my wellies,
Nevermind i'll stay indoors and see whats on the te...


eeeehh....

leeeeeeeeeeeeeee.


ok, new one from my mum

We three Kings of Orient are,
One in a bike and one in a car,
One in a scooter picking his hooter,
Following yonder star.

Theres also

Kookaburra sits on electric wires,
Jumping up and down with his bum on fire,
Ouch! Kookaburra, ouch kookaburra,
Painful that must be...

but thats not very christmassy.

Isn't sanity really a one trick pony, anyway? I mean all you get is one trick, rational thinking! But when you're good and crazy...ooh hoo hoo hoo... the skys the limit!

Fix all the spelling you want. For once I wasn't making fun of a typo but commenting on the week long rain we've had in my neck of the forest. 50 rutting degrees in the middle of december. It's a shame.

Edit: And now I fixed the misspelling in my quote so they match now.

Holiday type stuff doesn't really start for me untill tommorow. Then it's a double feature of holiday classics (White Christmas followed by It's A Wonderfull Life) at the Music Box theater then off to dad's pad for the remainder of the elongated weekend.

this is the most mild winter I've yet seen here in western NY (hmm, sounds like I'm repeating myself from last year). i'm not complaining, though ;D

i don't really do much holiday stuff, go over to my parents' house for christmas eve, just bum around.

-edit- one tradition my family has (my parents and i) is to watch Scrooged and Christmas Vacation. That's about as far as tradition extends with us.

Don't worry I got to my final destination - unconciousness - eventually.
