The reason is, I was just reading a short interview with Brandon Flowers of The Killers in <I>Time Out New York</I>, and the interviewer said something about <I>Gossip Girl</I>, and he said, "I don't know what <I>Gossip Girl</I> is." Fucking liar. Even if you don't watch it, everyone has heard of it. <BR/><BR/>This kind of stuff always reminds me of something - I think it was David Spade - said. He was talking about people who think it's so hip and cool to say they don't watch TV, and then a real douchebag would be like, "I don't own a TV. I don't even know what a TV <I>is</I>."BeckEyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00119780316809151433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4457092979392142708.post-74867772002311354232009-01-23T11:07:00.000-08:002009-01-23T11:07:00.000-08:00I'm 1/4 bookist on my mom's side.I'm 1/4 bookist on my mom's side.Gwenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09100388190136741782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4457092979392142708.post-2220986187161420852009-01-23T09:12:00.000-08:002009-01-23T09:12:00.000-08:00Cora and Diva: I watch American Idol, too.

I just think when it comes to "movies from books" the book is better because I can escape my own depressing life more effectively than I can with a movie. I can get inside the character's heads, and as you said, books are more detailed. <BR/><BR/>For instance, I don't have to wonder why Isabella Swan was wearing a beautiful blue gown to prom, because I read the book and found out that is because Edward loves blue on her (which is revealed through a touching conversation they cut out of the movie).<BR/><BR/>I also learn new words, which I get a real kick out of. I just learned "imbibe" btw. I'm very proud. Even though sometimes I still end sentences in prepositions. <BR/><BR/>Does this mean we're no longer cyber buddies?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4457092979392142708.post-48510207297058964782009-01-23T06:52:00.000-08:002009-01-23T06:52:00.000-08:00"Nobody stands around the water cooler talking abo..."Nobody stands around the water cooler talking about the Utne Reader."<BR/><BR/>This line nearly made me do a spit-take.

He'd be picking out an outfit for the Oscars right now.<BR/><BR/>That being said though, (blushing in slight shame) I've never seen Top Chef. I'm crap at cooking, so I hate cooking shows because they only rub my nose in it. Although Hell's Kitchen is pretty good! (Why is it we American's can't get enough of angry, rude, screaming British guys?!). <BR/><BR/>My embarrassing TV addiction is American Idol. Which does in fact include another one of those angry, rude, screaming British guys, of course. I actually start getting butterflies in my stomach from sheer excitement about three weeks before the season starts up. It's really sad!
