  1. wow. middle-aged white bitches are dumb as hell. the first time a cat goes for you, reach down and grab it by the nape of it's neck (kitten or older) pull it up to your face and hiss at it. then go put it in a room that you don't want it in. simple as that.
  2. was rocking something long and layered for a few years... and just switched to a pixie a-cut recently. /no bastard beating
  3. Any of you hear of http://librivox.org/ yet? Not much a fan of books on tape, but you can either listen to or read books in the public domain... kinda cool. Also, rereading Chinua Achebe's Things Fall Apart at the moment.
  4. Just pathetic. How someone who can barely grasp English on a 5th grade level might actually make money off of this is beyond me. My grandma wants her clip-on earrings back faggot.
  5. I see what you mean about it feeling like reruns or a flashback. And I maintain, this episode was more about what didn't happen, and what almost happened, than what was actually happening. The writers created/conveyed a new feeling of being trapped and of futility (now that everything has gone to shit with both of their lives). They toyed with our anticipation by making us wonder if Walt was going to spill the beans, or if Jesse was really going to fall -- it wasn't just about them tracking back over the story of Jane for filler. Think about it like using negative space in a painting to convey an image.
  6. wow. You all fail at the art of cinema. definitely. One of the reasons Breaking Bad is such a great show is because of the way they use different means to create dramatic effect. Sure, it's not the gun-toting, action-filled type of episode that you are used to, so you all say it sucked. There are many ways to build tension in a scene. In this case, they chose to use the enclosed underground lab for the entire episode, with the same two characters. We as viewers feel tense because there's no progression whatsoever. Unsettled with the lack of action -- much like Walt is annoyed by the fly throughout the entire episode. The creators of the show have successfully created a sense of unrest within us to the point that when at the end of the episode Jesse finally gets the fly, we feel gratified in some way.And yet, it's anticlimactic because by that point Walt's out cold, which leaves us still with some sense of unrest... The writers are brilliant, imo. Shame that it went over your heads...
  7. Do they accept gold as a form of payment around there? Or is it just for show, like 'hey look at all the gold bars I have', because if that's the case, jewelery is much better for that.
  8. oh my bad, steve-o. http://www.steveo.com/importantstuff/meaning1.html
  9. It cracks me up that this whole show is entirely plausible in NM. "Pollos" is just like Golden Pride, which is run/staffed almost entirely by mexicans, except for the single white dude or really clean cut dude who is obviously the manager in any of the locations. Jesse and crew are the right amount of retarded for dudes in NM too. (Johnny Knoxville is from NM, so that should give you some idea...) What a sinkhole.
  10. Have some Raquel and celebrate...
  11. oh, if we're talking about ciders, then Blackthorn all the way.
  12. Watch Food Inc. Specifically the part about the family of 4 who can't afford to buy produce, and show that it's actually cheaper to buy a full meal at mc donalds (not to mention faster) than to buy produce for one meal...
  13. working all weekend, trying to catch some sun, and staying in to watch Dr. Who until the wee hours.
  14. she's probably going to die soon, so people are trying to get the last of her...
