Hm... I actually have the initiative to post tonight. I think because it's more of a linkspam and also I'm trying to make my internet time more efficient so I waste less time on it. (Now, I use "waste" as a turn of phrase, because I feel that it's just like reading for me, and I think I learn a fair amount online.)
ANYWAY.
Gah! It just started raining again. DAMMIT. Plz to be stopping raining! I want to dooo stuuuuff. (Well, not now, but, tomorrow and stuff!) Although I am enjoying the cool weather.
The people in the room... below me, I think... are watching some horror film, and it is fucking LOUD. Not really a problem as it's only 9 pm, as opposed to the jerks up stairs who pick up the drumsticks at 11 and go until two.
I'm kind of sad. Hawaii is really starting to feel like home to me, in the sense that I'm getting more familiar with it and less nervous about doing stuff. I mean, I was comfortable here pretty quickly, but I'm starting to be less nervous, saying hi to people who are only acquaintances and riding the bus by myself and stuff. =( I mean yeah, I am PSYCHED to get home home and be with everybody and see Indy IV (and The Fall... PLEASE GOD let the Neon or Little Art Theatre pick it up!), but I do think I will have left a small piece of my heart here. (I think I would like to live here, but maybe only on occasion. I don't think I could stand being so far away from everything for very long, in the sense that I like to travel around. I mean, if I had to, yeah I would have no problem living here. MINUS THE FACT THAT ALL THE AIRLINES ARE CLOSING GODDAMNIT)
SO LET'S GET DOWN TO BWEEZNESS.
Bond--> Quantaum of Solace? Personally it sounds like they're trying to hard with that title, but then again maybe there is some required amount of Cheez(tm) that you need in a James Bond film; Moonraker and Die Another Day had it in the plot, and this one's trying to cram it all into the title so the movie itself doesn't suck? Maybe. I dunno. Just a theory. Anyway, Amy Winehouse doing the music? Should I even know/care about/like any of her stuff? In general I don't listen to the cRap on the radio today (uh, "hip-hop" and "pop" these days aren't much better), but seriously. Amy Winehouse? Granted, I have not had a TV since the end of January, but everything I've seen about her in the news boils down to this. Grammy, drunk, jail, drunk, maybe drugs? And more drinking. Plus her eye makeup is FUCKING SCARY. And her hair. (WHAT IS THAT?!) So I'm really hoping "no", at least until someone provides me with evidence that she doesn't suck.
"Nora Roberts Inspires Indy Bookstore." Now, what I want to know is this: 1) Did they mean "Indie" and not only that but 2) did they miscapitalize "inspires", "indy" AND "bookstore"? You'd think people who wrote about books would know that sort of grammar rule. I think I learned that in first grade when we started having writing competitions.
Well hello, FSM. You're looking delicious today! (Also: these people are eloquent and have a good point. They are very good at expressing the "whole point" [the REALISTIC point for those of you with no funny bone] of Pastafarianism without resorting to ridicule or sarcasm. Many wins were had.)
Tangent: Hmm, methinks my English skills are devolving with me being here in Hawaii. It's either the lack of work I'm doing, or maybe it's me spending too much time on a certain lulzy website. But I'm struggling to come up with the right phrases that I usually use. ("Phrases" is not what I wanted to say. I also was trying to come up with the word "conducive" two minutes ago but decide on "encouraging.") This isn't a huge problem except that my internal train of thought has a certain rhythym/meter/flow to it that forgetting words just fucks right up. Oh, grammar.
Also: IE WHY ARE YOU FROZEN. I know I hate you but please unfreeze so I can watch videos again. =( Anyone with Firefox skills out there? I can't watch videos/flash in firefox anymore because it is soundless and freezes after two seconds. And now back to your regularly scheduled linkspam.
In light of the fact that lots of people I know are getting tattoos, I have to point this out. Barring the fact that they prove UV ink to be really super safe, it will probably be the closes I'll come to a tattoo.
I don't have a link for this, but Maggie Gyllenhal is looking RAD in replacement ofKrazy Katie Holmes. Holmes was just so... blah... in that role. (Blase... where are my accent shortcuts when I need them...) Other than Indy IV and The Fall this could be one of the biggest things I'm looking forward to (movie-wise) this summer. IF ANYBODY FINDS OUT IF THE FALL IS PLAYING ANYWHERE IN OHIO I DEMAND TO KNOOOOOOOOOOW
44 days until Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull! DISCUSSION TIME~~ (Those tildes make it sing-songy. Because I said so, that's why.) Right on. SO. I've seen a lot of "all movies are these days is sequels! Blah blah blah whine bitch whine" (and hey, sometimes I am on that front, too). BUT. Everyone saying that Indy IV is just the first of a new trilogy (OR, the in-between for Indy and Mutt trilogies) is kind of pissing me off. Um, and scaring me.
Yeah, Mutt's character looks cool. But he just can't be Indiana Jones, and I think if you take that character away from it there wouldn't be so much of a universal market. Just sayin'! I mean go for them if they'd go through with something like that but I don't think I'd be too pressed to care other than seeing/buying the movie. Basically what it boils down to is that Indiana Jones is the summation of all the people who've worked on it, and a lot of it came from Ford. Good comparison: everything Johnny Depp did to create (Captain!) Jack Sparrow and create a character that would be interesting. (Not that Ford really redirected the story at all waitaminit minus cutting the sword fight I ALMOST forgot that for a second.) So, yeah.
In other Shia news, someone on the Indy forum I read started calling him LaPoof because of his hair. I lol'd. Also, there's a new video about his stuff on the site, and it's pretty interesting. You'd be hard pressed to get me to admit this in general, but I watched it twice and giggled like an idiot every time. Basically proof I'm going to love this movie no matter what.
And based off of that, I had a premonition of my upcoming post immediately after the movie comes out: It will be something like "*GLEE!*" in a significantly larger font.
Ohhh geeez exciiiitemeeeeeent
