radio silence

posted by catherine / May 24, 2006 /

clearly my blogging ability up to this point has been driven by my frenetic obsession with veronica mars and my impending move to atlanta, and now that those two topics have dried up, it has become apparent that i am a big empty vessel, devoid of any content. the media management project goes full churn for the next two weeks, stopping only for alcohol fuel along the way, so it's likely blog stuff from my end of the site will be pretty lacking. but still - random things for your discussion:

  • my nights have begun to look more and more like this one, yet, somehow, my pool skills just never get any better. my consumption of miller genuine draft, however, continues apace. thoughts?

  • passing a subway sandwich shop on my way home, they had a large sign outside that said, "try our cappuccino!" this concerns me.

  • wtf are otter pops? THEY'RE CALLED FREEZE POPS, PEOPLE!

  • odds seem likely that the lost season finale will be as sucktastic as the rest of the season. and if it is, odds are also good that i'll bitch about it.

  • is ANYONE ever able to hear the phrase "how cool is that?" and not break into full on singing "so i went to your room, and read your die-ahh-reeeee-ee"? i just heard it on an air conditioning commercial and busted into song.

  • did pinkerton really come out TEN YEARS AGO?!?

    UPDATE: my lost predictions are already coming true; the episode has already included the lines "we are nothing more than puppets!" and "i will win this race...for love."

    whoever says this isn't their favorite weezer song is probably a liar.

    I'm probably showing my West Coast roots here, but I am quite familiar with Otter Pops. They are great because of the different characters associated with each flavor: Poncho Punch was favorite, as was Alexander the Grape. And if I recall correctly, my brother was a big fan of Sir Isaac Lime.

    What are Freeze Pops? Do they also have cool otter cartoon characters associated with them? I think not.

    I think "Pink Triangle" is better.

    And thank you Catherine for affirming my love for MGD. I get laughed at hear for stocking up on the stuff by the case load, but it really is better than half the swill we get.

    And don't forget what was, in my opinion, the best line of the evening. Uttered by Michael:
    "I've SEEN them. They ARE hillbillies!"

    Nope, entirely incapable of hearing that phrase without following it in song. In fact, as I read your post, I sang "how cool is that?" while reading it, without noticing it was happening.

    the best is when you're with someone when you hear it, you catch their eye, and you both bust into song. my brother and i have done that many a time.

    They're called Otter Pops cuz that's what they say on the box, as far as I can recall. And yeah, they have cool animals on them. This is clearly in the same category as the prefunk/pre-party controversy that I have been fueling. West Coast whatwhat.

    Just a little note on Otter Pops, they are much more awesome than regular Freezee Pops so the distinction is important. Each flavor has a distinct otter avatar. Personal favorite: probably Alexander the Grape.
