TV Shows

[Quasar]

I've been seeing ads for About a Boy. I think it starts in April.

For Adam.

[Dalty]

Is this based on the Hugh Grant movie? That was an OK movie.

[Quasar]

Yep, the kid looks pretty much like the kid in the movie.

[Dalty]

Who now, in real life, gets to wake up next to Jennifer Lawrence.

Life is so unfair.

[The Swollen Goiter of God]

Hey, Quasar. Have you watched any of that show with Greg Kinnear that you were going to watch? If you have, how is it?

[Quasar]

I haven't watched any Rake yet. I've been watching shows that expire from On Demand first, so that's usually Helix and Agents of SHIELD. All 3 (now 2) remaining episodes of Dracula expire on Saturday, so I'll be watching those this week. I doubt I'll get to Rake for at least another week.

[Adam54]

Thanks, Quasar. I'd been meaning to check the premiere date of that. Looks like it actually "previews" with the pilot after the Olympics on Saturday (?) and then moves to it's regular timeslot next Tuesday. So excited. Jason Katims can do no wrong. Especially not when he's adapting one of my favorite books.

[Dalty]

Have you been watching the curling? I bet you have, you curling loving Estonian pumpkin!

[Adam54]

I love when you talk Estonian to me.

Of course I have! I miss playing it SO much.

[Dalty]

Were you one of those who curls, or an over excited cleaner with a tiny brush?

[Adam54]

All of the above. Everybody takes a turn doing the curling and because I was vice skip of our team, every fourth turn I also got to be the guy at the end of the ice telling the curler where to aim and yelling at the sweepers whether or not they should sweep.

[The Swollen Goiter of God]

Does the guy at the end of the ice get to call himself a coxswain?

[Adam54]

No. He's the skip.

Except in ladies curling. Then She's the skip.

[Quasar]

[The Swollen Goiter of God]

Do men and women never curl together?

If so, I won't tolerate this.

[Dalty]

It's a crazy sport, but now I really want to try it.

[The Swollen Goiter of God]

There is no try. There is only dew.

Frozen dew.

[Adam54]

Oh they totally do. Just not in the Olympics. Our amateur team had a woman on it.

And seriously, Dalty. You've got the money. Give it a try! Seriously the most fun I've ever had in team sport, plus tradition dictates that all competitors go out for a beer afterwards. Win-win!

[The Swollen Goiter of God]

So you're saying the Olympic Committee is being sexist?

I won't tolerate this!

There's never been sexism in the Olympics before. We can't let it in. Not even a little bit. Not even with curling.

[The Swollen Goiter of God]

I bet when the Olympic Committee thinks of women curling, they think of this:



Sexist motherfuckers.

[Adam54]

I see what you did there.

[Mal Shot First]

That vibrator looks awfully unpleasant.

[Mal Shot First]

But not as unpleasant as that video Quasar posted. Goddamn.

[Dalty]

Were there lemons and a leotard involved?

[The Swollen Goiter of God]

I think he's referring to that terrible "The Fox (What Does the Fox Say?)" parody.
