Continuing research in irony. Irony is Slipknot (the jackass metal band that wears “scary” masks and call themselves by numbers) saying that what they do proves that there’s no room for bullshit in the music industry.
Yeah, irony.
This was on Uranium, the metal show hosted by Juliya, who is fucking uber-hot. I don’t normally go for metal chicks, but damn. Better still, day-um.
So the conclusion to Farscape was great. It was sad, excting, breathtaking and uplifting ALL IN THE FIRST FIVE MINUTES! No, not really. That all was spread out over the course of two hours. Just great, great storytelling. There’s not much else you can say about it.
I also watched both “Kill Bills” today. The first one from when I taped it off Starz a couple of days ago and the second on PPV for the first time. It was neat. I still contend that I would have sat through the whole thing in one sitting (with an intermission), but I don’t feel as ripped off since I only payed $3 for it on PPV and I saw the first one in the theater.
Did more work today. Work work work. I’m becoming a workaholic. It’s fun.
I think my car is dead. I’ve been trying to revive it from its slumber, but it’s not cooperating. However, I may get loaned a new one, so maybe, one day, in the distant future, I’ll be mobile again. Driving around, being all cool, going “Whooo hooo, lookit me, I’m driving.” It’ll be a blast.
And hey, here’s something that’s weird: During Farscape, they were showing ads for “Battlestar Gallactica,” and they have little things that each of the main characters say…and I’ll be damned if one of them doesn’t look and sound like Jessica Simpson. I mean, you wouldn’t put Jessica Simpson in Battlestar Gallactica, would you? What sane person would do that? I mean, I’m wrong here, right?
And every time that Geico commercial comes on that’s about a fake reality show called “Tiny House” I get all confused, because I always think that’s a real show, because my expectations are so low when it comes to reality TV show idiocy. So every time it comes on, I’m like “Goddamn them, making a show about people living in a tiny house…oh wait, it’s not real.” And then I feel silly.
Silly, silly snake charmer, I remain…
I can tell you so much about irony. I’m taking a 4-day-a-week class on it, currently. DUDE THERE’S ONLY SO MUCH YOU CAN SAY ABOUT IRONY. IT DOESN’T CHANGE.
K-
You should totally bring up the Slipknot anaolgy in class. And if anyone there likes Slipknot, beat them over the head until they need a “Scary” mask to cover it up.

That would be so ironic. :D
