A leetle bit childish, I must admit.

From Jezebel (where else?):



My usual "sophisticated" sense of humour has clearly abandoned me in my weakened state. Ham! Shaped like a penis!

That Mitchell and Webb Look is on again tonight, which I am looking forward to. Last week I unexpectedly laughed myself silly at the Gary Rhodes sketch.

Earlier today we watched Make It or Break It, the new gymnastics TV drama from the US, and it was GREAT. There was gymnastics, obviously, with brilliant cuts between the faces and the actual bodies during their moves. There was a bitchy gymnast who'll happily fuck over her friends to get to the top, a perfect very-in-control gymnast whose only ambitions are to do gymnastics, and a more friendly gymnast who was having an ILLICIT RELATIONSHIP WITH A BOY. There is also a new gymnast, who is a threat, and her leotards are STORE-BOUGHT. The other gymnasts' leotards are not store-bought. They come through sponsorship deals, and they are SO VERY GLITTERY. Dr Malachi from ER was the coach. There were dirty deeds and the wonderful triumph of the will over the weakness of the flesh. I cannot WAIT for the rest of the series. (Before its cancellation, probably.) ALSO why did no-one tell me they were making a TV series of 10 Things I Hate About You? I love that film.


Is there some sort of add-on that will automatically uncollapse the threads on IMDB?

I actually laughed out loud at the meat penis. Thank you.

I sort of laughed out loud a bit at the meat willy. THANKS FOR RUINING MY VENEER OF SOPHISTICATION IN FRONT OF actually there's nobody here.

Well, I'm not going down on my own. (FNAR)

Also I just made a David Mitchell sim for my brother, to go with his Robert Webb sim. I feel a cloning and stealing session coming on.

Oh, you are a nice sister!

Anyone who doesn't laugh at that picture has no soul.

[identity profile] slemslempike.livejournal.com 2009-06-25 07:29 pm (UTC)(link)
I agree ENTIRELY.

Bah, sophisticated humour comes a slow second to ham-shaped penises.

That Mitchell and Webb Look? I didn't even realise it was back on! Thank heavens for my new cable t.v.

[identity profile] slemslempike.livejournal.com 2009-06-25 07:49 pm (UTC)(link)
It wasn't as heavily advertised as the previous series, or perhaps I haven't been watching as much TV. But yes, it is back!

Hee! So much more interesting than Jesus showing up in another piece of toast.

I knew you'd like that show. I am feeling very remiss in not letting you know about the new 10 Things I Hate About You show, but honestly...how can they top the brilliance that was the film??

[identity profile] slemslempike.livejournal.com 2009-06-25 10:24 pm (UTC)(link)
It's great! Properly I am looking forward to finding out what they do with it. Did you watch it?

I know, they can never even match it. But if they manage a similar tone I would be quite happy. I will give it a go, I think.

Much better than dull old Jesus toast!

I noticed the bottom first. That penis has a bottom btw.

Scrolling up?

The gymnastics show sounds right up my street - what channel is it on? Or are you watching a DVD of the show?

I lol'led at the meat penis.

[identity profile] slemslempike.livejournal.com 2009-06-26 10:19 am (UTC)(link)
It is here - very new so no DVDs. I really recommend it.

Good. Everyone should benefit from the meat penis.

10 Things I Hate About You as telly? Oh my. Also I sniggered at the porky penis, I am in a childish frame of mind following resolutions to be grown up.

[identity profile] slemslempike.livejournal.com 2009-06-26 10:20 am (UTC)(link)
According to the massively annoying adverts they plastered across the screen DURING THE SHOW for Make It or Break It - yes! I will have to investigate, even though I am not overly optimistic.

Ooph, that's a new low in programme placement surely. I shall live in hope.

I too found the Gary Rhodes sketch unexpectedly hilarious... And, ooh, what's this about a series of 10 Things I Hate About You?

[identity profile] slemslempike.livejournal.com 2009-06-26 06:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Apparently there's one either airing or about to air on ABC in the US! I'm sure it will be terrible. I'm equally sure that I will watch it.

[identity profile] teenagelogic.livejournal.com 2009-06-26 07:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Sounds exciting! I love that film, so I bet I will eventually watch the TV series, whether it's reputedly terrible or not. =]
