My thoughts on the Survivor winner and runner-up and why I think it landed thus ... ( Read more... )

Leo: Did I win a Grammy for something?
Jordan: Were you nominated?
Leo: No.
Jordan: That's ridiculous.
Leo: Well, those things are so political.

It's that time of the year. Awards, top 10 lists, and other nonsense. Hollywood execs get ulcers, fans of anything get alternately unduly excited over nods or into a tizzy over "snubs," and countless entertainment "news" outlets have something to talk about that doesn't involve Tiger Woods and his penis.

So I was spoiled for everything, but I came away with a different take on my own. :shrugs:

ETA: Voting my fingers off for Ashleigh although it will do no good, sigh.

I don't want to spoil this at all, but if you have Netflix, three hours to kill and love Jane Austen, WATCH THIS MOVIE!!! Netflix has it on WATCH INSTANTLY and it is just fabulously creative and original and AWESOME! I loved it, loved it, loved it!!

Lost in Austen -- CHECK IT OUT!!

Quick thoughts on both shows ...

"On the first night of Hanukkah
My grandma gave to me
Four ugly sweaters
And a guilt-trip for never calling..."

Something like that, I am going by memory. :) I don't even have a grandma, but that's supposedly the MO. As it is, it was a nice evening. With candles. Which I light even though I am not really all that familiar with the rituals. But then, maybe it's better to forgo the ritualistic feel of it all and just enjoy the light.

Here are eight fun pictures I took at various times (eight is the number of the day). Just because. Happy holidays!

I love The Office. That is all. :)

I discovered a month or so ago that I REALLY prefer Heinz to Hunts Ketchup. So ... poll-time!

Poll #1497291 Ketchup is a Vegetable (Proof that man is evil)
Open to: All, detailed results viewable to: All, participants: 52

Hunts or Heniz? Which do you prefer?

So I haven't gushed about Jeff and Annie in my lj yet (but I do mod a community for them: milady_milord -- if you're a fan, do check it out), but someone in the Jeff/Annie comm needed some cheering up, so I made a picspam and figured I'd post it here. The picspam subject is THE Jeff/Annie episode, "Debate 109" and rewatching it in the full bloom of my Jeff/Annie love really surprised me because it actually offered a lot more depth to the attraction between the two. There was so much going on between these two! (Caps taken from here.)

So the results that I've been anxiety-ridden over all day. I voted almost the full four hours for Ashleigh last night. Did it do any good?
