Closure Wanted

Heroes does it again.

Right as they close up shop, as they did in January, they left the characters all up in the air. Somehow, I've gotten the idea that they do this to enable their own negotiations with the actors. If any negotiations fall through, no problem! Your character actually died at the end of last season. You get a good deal on a return actor? Great! It seems your character miraculously lived!

Let me tally up the scoreboard, which of course, includes el spoilos.
Sylar - duh!
Matt - shot, but ambulanced.
DL - shot, but ambulanced.
Ando - alive, but anywhere on the Eastern Hemisphere
Peter - whatever.
Nathan - potential miraculous recovery
Peter&Nathan's Mom - no mention
Claire and Mr. Bennett - could easily disappear for good

Anyhow, it's just a feeling I get.

Hate Puffs

(The rest of the conversation is mostly irrelevant, yes?)
Christian: Yes. It fills me with hate. I am overflowing with evil intent.

Me: Like, say, a cream puff.

Christian: Only instead of cream, filled with hate. A hate puff.

Me: A hate puff, indeed.

Torment Unyielding

Nan: "I have just turned into a potato."
Me: "Just now."
Nan: "Yes. Just now."
Me: "Of course."
Nan: "I feel exceptionally starchy."
Me: "Mmm."
Nan: "I am a potato, potato, potato. A sweet potato, even. A yam, perhaps."
Me: "I'll be over here, ignoring your crazy."
Nan: "A wookie potato. Rwaawrn."
Me: "... I'm going to have to kill you now."
Nan: "Well, remember. The sun'll come out, tomorrow, tomorrow, it's uh... going to be sunny."
Me: "First of all, tomorrow is forecasted for rain, secondly, those aren't even the lyrics."
Nan: "Don't underestimate the orphan's powers."
Me: "Of... weather forecasting?"
Nan: "She has a doppler radar built into her head."
Me: "Is that so?"
Nan: "Of course. Annie - it's short for Anntenna."
Me: "You die now."

Chatterbox

Christian: Alison does this thing where... she sometimes doesn't want to talk.
me: !!
Christian: I am like, whoah. Weeeeiiiird.
me: well!
then, what do you do
sit around?
Christian: Not like, she's not interested in talking to me.
me: does she make kitty noises like carla?
Christian:But, she's more interested in sleep.
me: i only know so many girls.
Christian: That is so weird.
Girls should not be allowed to get away with that.
Well, see. Here we go.
>chriszf13: Tell me. As a woman, do you ever have phases where you make only noises like 'meh' oh 'enh' or 'meep' or maybe meowl like a cat, and have to have someone translate for you?
>wasabiyumyummy: yes.
>chriszf13: ...
So. Therefore..
Asian girls are stupid.

Identity

I should be on that show, Identity. I'm really good at this.

So, there's a random show on Discovery Channel called "Cash Cab" and I only caught maybe 2 minutes of it, but the premise is that a game show disguised as a common New York City cab drives around the city picking up unsuspecting contestants. The theme of today's questions was apparently food, but you'll never guess who the cab happened to pick up.

It was totally Crazy Legs Conte and Eater X! Now, the show probably had no way of recognizing these guys, but I'm a fan of MLE, as stupid as it may be. They answered almost every question right, seeing as these guys ought to know everything there is to know about food. I just thought I should mention it, since no one else made the connection to the celebrities.

The real conclusion to all this is that I watch too much TV.
