Man, I need to go buy chocolate chips.

Dear A&E,

You almost had me with the "What if gays went on strike?" teasers, because I had this image of a comedy where normal everyday people you'd never expect just don't show up at work one day, and then completely lost me when the real commercial for the movie in question starts out with a phrase that goes something like, "What if all of the wedding planners and hairstylists and florists went on strike one day?"

*sigh*

Sincerely,

Me

Dear Bravo,

I liked your list of the 100 Scariest Movie Moments. I also liked the fact that you came up with forty more. But call it what it is, damn it. "Even Scarier Movie Moments" makes it sound as if Saw and Hostel and Slither are scarier than Jaws and The Shining and Psycho. Try "More Scary Movie Moments" -- one small change, much more accurate description.

Sincerely,

Me

Dear National Geographic,

Make more Seconds from Disaster episodes. I need my crack here.

Sincerely,

Me

EDIT: Oh, and while I'm at it ...

Dear Bravo,

You know Celebrity Poker Showdown? Invite Jared Padalecki next time. Pretty please?

Sincerely,

Me

See, now why couldn't they have showed that? Because having that one quote in the commercial didn't do much to make me want to watch.

I know! I was all set to watch it until that commercial came out, and then had no desire to watch it. It was only by accident that I turned it on last night and decided to keep watching. Granted, there *are* stereotypes, of course. But I think they're balanced out pretty well with some really nice "hey look, average joe who happens to also be gay" types.
