Okay, so if any of you (ie, those of you with taste and eyes that work properly) have been admiring The Dave on Bones and thinking you might want to read some of the Tempe Brennan books - don't. They are boring and shitty. The Dave has been replaced by some dirty French Canadian guy called Andrew Ryan (seriously, all guys whose last names are actually Christian names are stupid), there is no Angel-a, Ginger Guy, Gender Ambiguous Lab Assistant or Papa Goodman and Brennan is about five hundred times more annoying than her TV counterpart. The only good thing you can say about it is that there is also no Evil Cam. Seriously. Oh, and that the paper the books are printed on is not infected with Anthrax.

In other news, Snithy, you completely suck. If you hadn't pointed out that cute skull-faced sugarbowl to me when you were up, I wouldn't have had to go and buy it today. And then stopped at Borders to get my ticket to the John Connolly Thing at the City Art Galleries, and thus spent even more of my overdraft. Don't try turning this around or saying I lack willpower - it is all your fault and the shame is on you, my friend.

Iron Man is good, but lacks a) the expected drunken hijinx from Mister Stark and b) a bad guy who is actually a believable threat. Also, Gweneth Paltrow does not get shot in her stupid fucking head, which I feel is a flaw. Apart from that, a good job from the man who looks like Colin Farrell's syphilis-raddled older brother.

Also, the Reapers is out on May 15. If you do not buy it, you fail at life and will probably fall in lava, with or without limbs. So there.

But I didn't force you to get the sugar bowl, I just said I liked it thats all! Have you worn your shoes yet by the way?

I have no comment on Ironman because you quite obviously suck

Quite clearly, "that bowl is cool" is Snithyspeak for "buy that bowl or I kill all you hold dear", And no, I was going to wear them to Thing, but I figured I can be clumsy and embarrassing all by myself without any help from unfeasably high heels.

YOU quite obviously suck. But not as much as RDJ when compared to beauteous Colin.

HAH! I am not the only one who sees it! I am vindicated!

Have you read it yet?

[imbeiaiel.livejournal.com]

:)

Not yet which is horribly remiss of me but it's next on the list. What did you think?

[dissident-dream.livejournal.com]

You're delusional

[froodle]

You're gay.

I didn't really like it. It was... okay, have you seen the Miami Vice movie? It was like that, in book form. Lots of action and "grittiness" and explosions but ten minutes after it ended, you'd forgotten about it. I was disappointed, TBH. On the plus side, I went to this talk thing at the Leeds City Art Galleries he did and he read from The Lovers which is the next book and it sounds awesome, so there's that.

So are you

[froodle]

Not as much as you!

I've haven't but I can't imagine that that's too much of a good thing. He is a sweetheart - I've only met him once but we did end up talking about my mum :).

[froodle]

Well, you're not missing anything. Even I thought it sucked, and I am automatically prone to like anything Colin Farrell does.

He met my mum once when he did a booksigning in the isle of Man, and he was totally hitting on her. I was like, why must you steal my imaginary husbands, mother? Why?!

I was a bit scared after Alexander so haven't watched much with CF in since. Imagine Angelina and Val as your parents *shudder*.

I can imagine that - all that charm. I'd have been all "keep away from the parent!"

[froodle]

Alexander was awesome! Well, the bits with Colin in a leather miniskirt and Jared Leto in eyeliner were, anyway. Of course Anthony Hopkins had to ruin it all by being a stupid old man like usual and trying to give the film some "historial context" when all I wanted was to see CF kill a bunch of guys with a sword and then maybe shag Jarphaestion senseless. God damn you, Anthony Hopkins. You always fuck things up for me!

It was terrible - she was all giggly and Irish, and he was all smooth and Irish, and I just wanted to STAB THEM BOTH IN THEIR WHORISH FACES!
