Sep. 28th, 2003 10:04 pmWhat in the ever-lovin' fuck is Piper's problem? I mean, in general. Everything's absolutely, terribly horrible in her life. Everybody else is always leaving her and oh, woe is her. But if she tries to pull the same shit intentionally that Leo did because he didn't have a choice, that's okay.
I hate Piper. Seriously. All this wanting-a-normal-life whining on shows like this aggravates me to no end. It pissed me off when Buffy used to do it. It's pissing me off when Piper does it.
It says a lot when a minute of Evan Marriott in a cheap, lame-joke cameo is more appealing to me than any Piper screen time.
And Chris? He may be the cutest person on that show by far, he may have a higher purpose to all his little schemes, but Jesus, he comes in at a very close second to Piper in the pissing-me-off department. The only thing that saved him was the golf clap he did when Leo's spell failed. Hee. Hey, we were all thinking about doing it.
Why can't I have the Phoebe&Paige Road Show? I honestly want to know. I was dying with laughter when they were on screen.
Oh, and Phoebe? They have these great new things they've invented. They're called shirts. Woman, invest. And what exactly were you walking around the manor in at the beginning of the episode? Look, there's tank tops, there's bikini tops, there's bras, and then there's fishing line and postage stamps. Buffy fought demons in some pretty unsensible outfits in her time, but that? That was just wrong.
And hee ... Leo was stuck on the Island of Misfit Xena Extras. For a second when they had that lead-in shot flying over the island, I thought that he'd just been shipped off to be on the next "Survivor" and the reason Chris irritated me so much was because he was actually some mystical NBC reality-TV recruiter.
Oh, and the WB's new season promos ... Tarzan? Me want. My birthday's in an hour and thirty-eight minutes. Me have Tarzan? *puppy-dog eyes*
And the Seventh Heaven commercials are as annoying as fuck. Look, Simon hit someone with his car. It was an accident. What the hell is up with this whole over-persecution bit? Spray-painting "Thou Shalt Not Kill" on the church's sign? Running the kid out of town? Hell, as much as I might like to see the sanctimonious characters on that show get burned at the stake, that right there? That's just a tad extreme.
Dude, could those promos for the season premiere of Smallville get any slashier? All Clark, all Lex, all the time! "Two lives ... bound by fate ..." I half-expect them to end with a shot of Clark and Lex having incredibly flexible "I should have been screwing you this summer!" sex atop the desk in Lex's office while Lex sings, "At last, my prince has come ..."
Quite frankly, I can't begin to express the amount of bitter disappointment I feel when I don't get that.

Not really that early now...

I have never heard someone say *that* before.

And Happy Birthday!
