Redenbacher's making Cinnabon popcorn. It microwaves with cinnamon in it, and then you pour icing on it afterwards. I bought some today, and I think I'm in love. Of course, that could just be the booze talking.

Also, I'm watching Sleepy Hollow. You know what I love about this movie? I mean, aside from Tim Burton directing and Christina Ricci being all cool and Johnny Depp doing anything. It's that all of the colors are all muted and dull, almost black and white, except for the red of the blood. Maybe it's a simple thing, but it's a nice stylistic touch I adore.

Hmm. I'm amazed I can type so well when I'm a Smirnoff and a half down.

Oh, and thanks, Pope, for thinking I'm just a walking uterus. *growls*

Because that's what Women Must Do. We will sit in our houses, have many many babies and cook.

I don't even think the Pope should be technically considered living anymore. The man might as well be held together by glue and string.

It's twisted. I have a great-grandfather who's eight years older than the Pope who has an infinitely better grasp on reality.

That is so ridiculous.

Then again - the Catholic church is not known for it's liberal stances. It makes me ashamed to have been raised Catholic. And it makes me wonder how my mother and other relatives can continue to support the Catholic church.

You're drinking booze and eating Cinnabon popcorn??? Your stomach must be infinitely stronger than mine.

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

Yup, and I'm thinking of taking a walk across the highway to the Safeway to see if they sell frozen White Castle. I knew I was going to leave the movie today with a White Castle craving, but this is ridiculous.

I've learned I have the same reaction to alcohol that most people do when they smoke pot. I'd almost be tempted to try pot to see what it did to me, if I weren't against marijuana smoking (or any smoking, for that matter) on a personal basis.

I usually wake up starving after a drinking binge... but there isn't much I trust my stomach to eat while I'm drinking... I usually eat pretzels.

I've never had White Castle.

Pot does give you the munchies... but it always made me really tired... I don't smoke it anymore.

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

I only had White Castle when I was a kid and went to NJ more often, much like Nathan's french fries. But right now, I'd just about kill for either one of them. If there's one thing I remember about them, they're tasty. :)

I used to be Catholic, but then I found salvation.

Honestly. What's wrong with us women these days? Expecting to be treated as something other than cunts, wanting respect, education, equal standing in society. I really want to go back to the time where my parents would choose my spouse and he could legally beat me in public. Yeah.

I'm addicted to Cinnabon popcorn. I'm with you, sister.

Interesting fact about the colours of Sleepy Hollow - much of it was shot using a blue tinted lens filter, that why things are blue and muted, to balance all the blue out and so the blood would look REALLY red all the fake blood was in fact bright orange.

The Pope needs to shut up now.

Oh man. Exactly. It's such a beautiful movie. It's one of my favorites. <3

"the fake blood was in fact bright orange."

That's so very cool.

[tardis-chan.livejournal.com]

Yay Smirnoff!

[seferin.livejournal.com]

Try the brownies.

[matildarose.livejournal.com]

*boggles* That's it.

We need a female pope. Or a gay pope. Or heck, some guy who can think pope.

I don't care if she/he's actually the most conservative person in the world, I'd just like someone who'd rub a few brain cells together before spewing stuff like that.

Though, 'Walking Uteruses' would be a nice name for a band.

I have always wanted to be the Pope. Simply because one of his official titles or whatnot, is the Primate Of Italy.

Dude, I could be the Ape of Italy!

I think it's time I took the Pope out, and took the vatican over.

You can't have any of those becaue the Catholic Church does not ordain any of those people. You must be male and straight. Dernit.

The best thing we could get was a black-guy pope. Now THAT I'd see.

[mareklamo.livejournal.com]

From the article:
According to the leaked extract in the German tabloid Bild Zeitung, his letter to bishops calls on governments to "create conditions that enable women not to neglect their family duties when they enter into a job".
Hmm, shouldn't conditions enable women AND men "not not to neglect their family duties when they enter into a job".

[mareklamo.livejournal.com]

You must be male and straight.
Or at least appear to be straight.

[matildarose.livejournal.com]

Some Guy Who Can Think Pope can be male and straight.

[lakidaa.livejournal.com]

True. Thinking is the most important quality, by far.

Provided the stick weren't too big, of course. Cos then he could get in trouble, and where would you be then?

[scriptrix.livejournal.com]

You know, I'd already quit being Catholic by the time I started noticing this anti-feminism thing.

Seriously, I want my uterus surgically removed. I don't want kids, I'd make a terrible mother, and I don't see myself as being able to keep a relationship going for more than a few months.
And, you know, lying curled up on the bathroom floor of a hotel room in NYC with cramps so bad that I couldn't even really move, whimpering for my mother. That's a lot of fun.

Um, sorry for ranting.

i love that fake b/w look, i think burton's second batman did it first that well, then "dark city", and it made me like "equilibrium" and even the force-fed "i, robot"
