I'm Freaking Out...
Apr. 9th, 2003 01:39 pmI should be hunkered down working now, trying to make the mess that is my desk a bit more bearable, but I had a semi-productive morning and hell I need a break. It isn't as if I am taking a lunch break today (since I plan on leaving 11/2 hours early I probably shouldn't brag). I think I am in a pissy mood. Can I rant here instead of to clients? Of course I can - this is my LJ. Whew. Glad that is settled.
Yesterday, I took a statement from a witness to an automobile accident. During the statement I asked what one of the driver's actions were after said accident. The witness, bless his heart, said, "Well he kind of walked over to the curb and sat down and he seemed like he was all full of shock and awe." I did not laugh and he seemed unaware of what he said. A testament of how much time I spend on LJ was when my first thought was of![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
anniesj rather than Donald Rumsfeld. I feel better now. Thank you LJ!!
I gave J. some money and instructions on what to buy me for lunch. He just left. I should have food in about an hour. Yay!
You know what fills me with shock and awe in fandom lately? The amount of Angel-bashing that has been going on lately. I mean, I typically hang out on a Spike-Centered board, so I can expect it here and there, but my god, it has gotten fairly virulent of late (and not just there). I understand that some people hate the character and want to express their hatred. Fine, whatever. You know what I hate? People who have never seen more then 4 episodes of Angel prior to this year acting as god damned experts and in their expert opinion Angel is an asshole. Fucker. You don't know shit about mah man so back off or I will cut you! Or something along those lines would be my reaction if I wasn't so fucking classy. When did the directive come down that if you are a Spike fan it is a requirement that you hate all things Angel? Cause I missed that memo. Hell, the thing about Spike I hate the most is the insanity of some of his fans. I really shouldn't hold it against him, that isn't fair.
What was my point? Oh yeah - try watching something before condemning it. When I was a freshman, NYPD Blue premiered. It was a big deal and the ABC station in Lexington, Ky (where I went to college) actually had a call-in campaign regarding whether or not they should show this godless program. You could vote. The good citizens of Lexington declined to watch such a raunchy show. Of course as soon as the ratings took off, the ABC station decided to air it anyway. Hee. AtS is a great series, it is much better than almost any other drama airing and next year it promises to be the only damned show I like still on the air. I had more to say but it makes even less sense than that so I'm just gonna post.
Damn I'm hungry, where the hell is my food?
Apparently I curse more as my blood sugar drops. You live and you learn.
