Green Room - Week 19 - Day 5

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

Good morning Idol!

I had a terrific birthday, thanks for all of the messages that I received! (and those who took advantage of the "subtle use of links", definitely thank you! :D)

We do have a matter of a finale to handle though: http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/699150.html So it's no rest until tomorrow night! There was a question asked, and answered over there though that I think a lot of people might be interested in. I know that I was intrigued by my own answer!


We are going to see how this season is going to end: Will it be Breaking Bad or the Sopranos???


How was YOUR version of my birthday weekend? I know it couldn't have been *as* fun... but hopefully it was still decent.

If you're talking about me, I am totally unashamed.

If I have to scroll through twenty-some-odd comments from various people on my FB list that say nothing more intelligible than:

"Aww MAN!"
"Woo Pig"
"That is what I'm talking about!"
"Grrrr!" or
"Go (insert random name here)!"

Then the people on my f list can deal with one comment from me implying how absofuckinglutely annoying that is.

You must have a lot of football fans on your FB FL...?

Alas, yes.

Something not everyone knows about The South. Football is a religion down here.

[xo-kizzy-xo.livejournal.com]

I know it is, even though I'm not from there.

I honestly have never understood the appeal, even after a few people "taught" me how to watch it on TV down at Ye Olde Watering Hole :shrug:

I have nothing at all against the watching of football or any other sport. (Although there is a disproportionate amount of money spent on sports compared to things like music and art, but that's another conversation.)


My deal is with the ridiculous exclamations that mean nothing out of context. Things like that make more sense on twitter, but only a tiny bit more. But imagine me watching titanic and then randomly posting, "Aw Man!" when the boat sinks - with no explanation or reference whatsoever.

I think that is a holdout of evilution.
A human instinct born of the simple fact that sports are a byproduct of developing and testing skills that in more primitive situations are vital for survival.
We spend more time and money on music and dance then other arts as well because they tend to play a part in attracting a mate.
Everything else only comes about when we have time to spare from base servival needs.

Yeah, I'd definitely be confused if someone posted "Aw Man!" when the boat sinks. The correct response is "BWAHAHAHA, adios, Leo DiCrapio's painfully boring cliche romance character!"

It's not just a religion in the South.

Then again, I am squarely in Eagles Fans Country. And, well... Eagles Fans have the rep they do for a reason.
