A Little Cup of Cyanide

Oh my GOD, people! Did you see that? Was that not AWSOME!! Half a minute left and the Giants got a touchdown. Unfuckingbelievable! So, none of my predictions came through. The Giants won (yay!) no brownies were thrown, and said friend didn't pass out OR die. She just got up real close to the TV. She kept telling me that "Tom Petty is still hot for an old guy." Her exact words. Which, OK, it's pretty true. Maybe not hot, but he's not bad looking.

And, who else loved the Pepsi Stuff ad? My roommate and I were discussing how awesome it would be if that could happen in real life. Well, I was saying it would be awesome, and she's like "You want him dead? Because he'd be dead if he was put through all that. Which, dammit, if you put it that way, it makes me look like a horrible person.

And the Life Water ad. How awesome? What's cooler that lizards doing the Thriller dance?

Super Bowl. I have some predictions here:

1: Patriots are going to win. I will be crushed.
2: One of my friends will pass out/die when Tom Petty comes on. I will laugh.
3: The referees will let the Patriots get away with anything if it means that they will win. I will be irate. I might even throw a brownie or two at the TV.

Now, as for Thursday's Supernatural, which I said I would be posting my 82 page squee post, but never got around to...

There's no way to save Dean? That's so wrong! There has to be a way.

Ruby is good! Or, at least not horrible. I'll admit, I didn't really like like her, but I kind of liked her. I was a bit wary of her. Like, why is this demon trying to save them? She seems OK, but I don't like her yet. But now I like her. She's my new favorite right after Sam, Dean, and the Impala. I'm pretty sure she's got her own agenda going on, but if she's going to help make Sam a stronger person in the process, kodos to her. She's trying to make Sam strong. Awwwww! And Dean and her had a civilized conversation that didn't involve the words "bitch" or "skank". And I love how she's all standing up for Sam, shooting down Dean for leaving him. Somebody has to tell him, because Sam must be going about it wrong.

And there's a demon that can stop the colt. Holy fuck. And if there's one, there could be more, right? And what happens when Dean is gone and another one comes along?

And who's this competition? Is it like, either you beat him and be evil or die? Are those the choices? Like I've said before, I'm all for Evil!Sam. Go at it, Sammy!

Oh. And fandom is having a collective heart attack right now. Seriously. I wouldn't be surprised if there are a million and two Dean/Ruby or Demon!Dean fics before next Thursday.

Now, predictions for next week. I didn't get to see the promo for the next episode until today. But everyone kept going on and an about Dean with black eyes in it. So, I found it on YouTube. And got a cap, which either took great skill or super fast reflexes to get.

OHMYGODOHMYGOD!!! Dean’s going to be a demon! He’s going to be what he’s hunted all this life! The same thing that killed his mother! And father! And basically killed Sam!

Phew. Now that that’s over, I’ve still got lots to freak about. Fucking senior sleepover and their fucking loud seniors. Die! All of you! The roommate and Amanda come in with their seniors about when Dean finds the thing hanging from the chick’s ceiling. I have no idea what the thing is, because Cassie and Amanda and their stupid seniors were squealing. The one is all “Oh my god, it’s Dean from Gilmore Girls. He’s so hot.” Or something along the lines. Like, please, somebody gag her. Then me. Because yes, while he’s pretty hot, Gilmore Girls sucks no matter how many pretty faces you cram into it, I’m trying to watch a good show here, and you, senior, are interfering with it. Keep in mind that I’m a very calm person. There’s no sarcasm in that at all. I don’t usually tell people that they are bugging me, just kind of do my best to ignore it while hoping that my internal death threats are hitting them loud and clear. But no, I usually keep quiet.

But at some point someone says something about studying in the Cave, and I’m like “Yeah, that sounds like a good idea. Why don’t you go there and study?” Six weeks, people. I need my Sam and Dean and Impala, dammit.

Anyway, I’ll be back tomorrow with my squee post. Starting off February right! Right now I'm going to watch Lost.

Oh, my layout! It works! Awesome, yeah?

First off, I just have to say I have an awesome new layout ready to put up. Just as soon as I remember how I did it about two years ago. So yeah, it might be a while. And if anything looks way off in the meanwhile, that's me messing it up, probably beyond repair. Ignore it. I will be. Ignorance is sometimes good for blood pressure.

Now. I'm in a good mood. Like, Super Spectacular Dancing on the Ceiling good. If that was physically possibly. And if I wasn't terrified of heights. Only a few things could make me happy as I am right now. Moving to Florida or any equally hot place, winning the lottery, getting a Hershey's special dark chocolate bar, and the first new episode of Supernatural in. six. weeks. Narrow that down? I'm in Nowhere West Virginia where I almost fell on ice patches twice today, I only have enough money to do two loads of laundry, and sadly, no chocolate of any kind. Sigh. I'd even settle for a Milky Way.

If you’re not a total spoiler-phobe, you should check THIS out. Even if you have no idea what the hell I’m talking about. Do it. Now. I mean it. Does this sound funny to you?

Now, the name. Malleus Maleficarum. It keeps bugging me. Like I’ve heard it somewhere before. So, I looked it up, and found this site. Nifty. I would totally read it if I wasn't already procrastinating on reading Rameau's Nephew. Of course the site doesn't tell me where I've heard the word before. But then I saw the "witch hammer" thing, which just bugged me even more, because I KNOW I've heard that somewhere. So, I’m searching for god only knows what.

I ended up looking up The Crucible for some reason. It just reminded me of it, so I thought maybe looking it up would help me out or something. Of course, I kept looking up The Constable, because seriously? You really expect me to remember the name of a play I read in junior high? So I asked Jess. And I’m all, "There was this book, or maybe a play, where this girl is accused of witchcraft, but her friend was the one doing it, and there was something about a bluebird and dancing naked in the woods, and I think it was named after a bowl?" Yeah, the man is a genius. And, it didn’t help me any.

In conclusion, be prepared for me several page squee on the new episode on Thursday of Friday. It’s coming. It’ll probably be longer that this post, if the clips are anything to judge by. And, if anyone out there is super cool and could tell me how to do a cut? I’ll give you that Milky Way when I get it.

Do you know what I was doing at six o'clock this morning? I was just going to bed. Why was I just going to bed when most people were just waking up? I was up all night watching Heroes. Thirteen straight hours of Heroes. I started watching around five when my mom left for the hospital. I don't normally watch TV. But my mom was at the hospital, my dad was at a race, I never see Suze unless she wants someone to watch Atalya, my computer was acting up again, and god forbid I make any friends in this town. The TV was on SciFi when I turned it on, and it's one of those things where commercials are on, so you have to wait until the commercials are over to see what's on before you flip the channel, but I never ended up flipping the channel. Instead, I got sucked into it and ended up watching it the rest of the day. And I still think I missed about eight episodes or so. Which left me with some questions.

What was the deal with Niki and Jessica? I get that Jessica took over when something needed taking care of. But how did she take over? Was it like multiple personalities or something? Was it something completely explainable like schizophrenia? Or was that her power, being able to let someone else take over when she couldn’t handle it? Or was Jessica really in control of when she came and went?

When exactly did Claire’s dad figure out Claire had her power? When he saw the video? Or did he suspect she had them before then? Before the tape ever went missing he kept asking if there was anything she wanted to talk about. so did he suspect she got her powers? Or was he just paranoid because he always knew it would happen?

It seems like a million different people want the city blown up. Are they all working together, or do they all have their own reasons for doing it?

What exactly is Syler’s motivation for blowing up the city? Does he just want to prove to his mom that he can be special? Has he actually stated a clear motive? Is it just one of those “hey, I’m evil, I don’t need a motive” things? And if he just wants to be normal like he says, why is he going around collecting as many different powers as he can get his hands on?

What’s the deal with the paper company? I still don’t completely get the concept behind the whole company. Why do they want to blow up the city? And why do they want to track the people with powers?

To sum it up, I’m confused. And to top it off, I’ll have to compete for the TV to watch the season finale. The almighty Bachelor is on at 9:30. And it doesn’t matter who is watching what, when The Bachelor comes on, the TV belongs to my mom.

I just got back to school. My Easter was the epitome of boring. I went to Wal Mart to get laundry detergent, and that's about it. So, I watched Sci-fi all weekend. And Chiller. Ever heard of Chiller? It's pretty much one of the greatest channels out there, right up there with Fuse, HGTV, and BBC. They show horror and suspence stuff all day. Apparently my dad discovered it a few weeks ago and hasn't changed the channel since, except for Supernatural and the Sci-fi Saturday movie.

I showed a picture of Facebook guy to everyone. My sister and mom think he's cute from what they could tell from the itsy bitsy picture, and my dad thinks he looks like a hippie. Mind you, that might actually be considered a compliment coming from my dad, who usually refers to any guy I like as a fruitcake. So, then when I got back guess who got back about a second after me? So I go over to my mom after he gets into the building, and I'm like "That's him." And The first thing she says is "Oh, he's really cute!" The very next thing she says is "But he has a lot of hair." Oh my god. What's their deal? I actually like a guy that doesn't wear make up, doesn't wear women's clothes, doesn't have any visible tattoos or peircings, doesn't have blue or purple hair, and she still has a problem with him. Why on earth does her second reaction have to be to his hair? They're both so effing hung up on looks that even when I find a guy I like who looks normal, they have to find something wrong. Luckilly my dad didn't notice him. I'm afraid he would have said something if he had seen him.

I wonder how they've dealt with me all my life. Let's face it, I don't have a single stylish bone in my body. Well, maybe I have one or two, but they've got to be really small insignificant ones I never use. I wear old jeans and random Goodwill tee shirts. I never wear make up, and when I do, it's just way too much eyeliner. I'm starting to be glad I don't know what they think of me.

I was talking to my mom this afternoon. We were talking about how Lost is back on. Which I’m excited about. Waiting for the new episodes has been excruciating. But I missed the first episode, anyway. I was taking a nap and set my alarm for 9:00 because I thought that was when it was on. Instead it was some “inside Lost” thing, and the new episode started at 10:00. So, I figure hey, I’m up; I might as well watch it. I fall asleep half way through it and wake up right when the woman is saying that that dude with the spine problem was going to get her off the island. I missed the whole show. Grrrrr, I say. I hope somebody on YouTube loves me this week.

Anyway, then she told me that Degrassi is coming to USA. You should have seen me jumping around my room. Seriously, I was that happy. I’ve been watching it on theN.com. My computer doesn’t like their player. Sometimes it’s great, and sometimes I want to take it and eat it’s face off. If it had a face. Does it have a face? I think the little screen might be it’s face. I’ll eat it then. During “The Bitterest Pill,” it kept going perfect through the funeral part, then started buffering every two seconds for two minutes. Then when it got to the locker part, it goes into perpetual buffer mode. I mean, the exact same spot every time I tried. “Oh, look, it’s the tape—“ BUFFER! I was mad. It wouldn’t even let me watch the episode where JT died until a week after I found out he was gone.

Do you know the hell I went through? Knowing JT, one of my all time favorite characters is dead and not knowing the details? I mean it’s JT. Who would kill JT? He’s awesome. He was one of the first three characters introduced in the very first episode. It was crazy. I actually got super attached to the little fucker. I mean, he was there from the beginning, and he’s just that great guy you can’t help but love, even if he is annoying at times. Anyway, yeah. Finding out they’ll be showing it on USA is just the greatest, because I can get USA down here.

It sort of amazes me how many American fans there are. There must be if a major network is picking it up. Let’s face it, a network like USA isn’t going to run a show that they don’t think will boost ratings. The N isn’t that big of a channel. I mean, it shares it’s daytimes with shows about baby animals working together to save the day and an annoying singing moose. If you asked someone about South of Nowhere or Instant Star, there’s a good chance no one will know what you’re talking about. most of the people who have the channel probably only have it because it was part of a satellite package, and probably less than half of those people are even aware that they have it, let alone watch it. So I thought I was weird for loving Degrassi and watching it. But I’ve found out it’s actually a pretty huge deal. I watched that little thing they had about them going to New York. It totally blew my mind that they would be shocked at the response. I would think they’d be used to it by now. I mean, they’re Degrassi! I would think that if they get that kind of response in New York that it would be even more so in Canada.
