bloodyrosemccoyDue to a horrible gelatinous blob of cat on my lap a few days ago, I was unable to flee as I usually do when Mom and my sister turn the DVR to their favorite shows, Grey’s Anatomy and Private Practice. This did not go well:
ME: So, this show consists entirely of unlikeable people making the worst possible decisions at any given moment?
MY SISTER: Isn’t it great?
ME: … Remind me again why you didn’t like Cloverfield?
MY SISTER: The camera was too shaky.
ME: Fair enough.
MY SISTER: Not to mention Cloverfield distinctly lacks Taye Diggs taking off his shirt, something this show delivers with great regularity.
ME: Well, as long as you have a good reason.
Just for that I made them watch the Jack Frost MST. If I get stuck watching incompetent doctors whining about how it turns out getting pregnant by their best friend’s husband or whatever was a bad idea, IMAGINE, it’s only fair that they get stuck watching some meat-haired Russian chase feathers and get turned into a bear by a guy in a mushroom hat. Though that logic might just be the head cold talking.
