Am I the only one driven nuts by that cell phone commercial where the guy talks about how great it is that he has enough minutes on his phone because now he can call his mother whenever he wants, like when he wants his mother to come downstairs and make him a snack?

If I or my brother had ever tried something like that, my mother would have come downstairs specifically to stuff the phone up our nose.

Consider yourself lucky; my mom would've found somewhere else for it...

It's the other way around for me.. my mother calls my cell from her room in the basement when she wants me to go downstairs for something. I can't not go cuz I mean.. she's my mom.

I hadn't been driven nuts by it, because I had never seen it, but having read your description---no, you're not the only one. Nor would your mother be the only one with that particular reaction or a similar one.

If I ever tried something like that not only would my mom shove the phone up my nose she would also have me make her a snack.

Amen. I'm be boiling water for tea and baking cookies with a Motorola up my nostril.

I think we have the same mom.

Actually, that's what my folks used to do to me all the time. "Can you come in here and fix the TV?" which meant that Dad had forgotten how to use the remote control and managed yet again to totally fubar the thing.

i dunno if you guys have the kinder egg ad in the states... the one where the little kid says, "i want chocolate and a toy and a surprise!" and his mum just goes, "okay dear." in my house, that would have been received with a slap upside the head.

I tried it once, when I was 14.

Put it this way, I only tried it once.

Two Things:

Did the desperate housewives special suck or what?

Why did Paul Young dig the chest up from under the pool? Who was going to think of looking under there for anything? And why toss a wooden chest wrapped in plastic (Absolutely ASSURED to float) in a lake to get rid of it? Why not burn it?

Or is Paul just completely off his nut now?

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

I didn't even bother watching it. But yeah, Paul is about the most inept killer I've ever seen in my life. How the hell he's managed to get thiiiis close to fitting the definition of a serial killer (it's supposed to be three dead to qualify) is beyond me.

I'm hoping the finale will give the audience a good reason how Paul could possibly be so rock-stupid and get away with this sort of stuff for so long, but then again, this is the same street that Susan lives on. It's probably something in the water, no pun intended.

It was just all the recaps from the previous episodes strung together with narration. It was rather sad.

I'm sort of hoping Mike shoots him, but that's just my knee jerk reaction to such blatant stupidity getting away with murder.

Or something along the lines of, "Well, when you get a job to buy one, you can have it. Instead, you're getting nothing. So ha!"
