Giant squids, blobs and islands

bohemiaI didn't post on Saturday but it was James Roday's birthday. I usually make a picspam, but the man himself joined Twitter last week, so I just tweeted him a birthday wish. I kinda feel bad breaking a tradition, but it's a picspam, not a holiday parade. Also, it may not exactly be Jason Schwartzman (it's allegedly him and two staffers at Young Baby Records, although I wasn't aware they had staff), but @CoconutRecrds is on Twitter, so that's something.
I realize that there's a bit of a Twitter backlash lately and I realize that it might be because of the LoudTwitter posts. I know how annoying those can be, since I'm on Twitter and don't feel like reading everything twice. I usually skip the LoudTwitter posts, but it still takes up space on my flist. So for those Firefox users tired of those posts, I wanna point you to a Greasemonkey script called LJ-Twitterless. It doesn't get all of them, at least not for me. But it helps.
I saw Monster Vs. Aliens this weekend, and everyone in the house keeps quoting B.O.B.'s lines. :D I want an animated icon of B.O.B. with the jello at the end but I have no idea where to get caps or an icon. Coincidentally, I'm now in a Seth Rogen phase now, so I decided that this first week of spring break (it starts Wednesday and goes until the 20th) will be about the Apatow crew and finally watching all of Freaks & Geeks and Undeclared and then watching The Spiderwick Chronicles and Horton Hears A Who for Seth's V.O.s. :) Next week will be wrapping up Mad Men, Touching Evil, and starting either Queer As Folk or Friday Night Lights.
It turns out that I don't have much to say about TV. The only thing that pissed me off about Big Bang Theory was that Sheldon implied Ackbar was a giant squid. He's a Mon Calamari and Sheldon would know that. And he wouldn't care that Penny didn't, and try to water it down for her. >:|
Also on HIMYM, it took me the whole episode to understand that the laser tag guy was supposed to be a spoof of the tough-cop-guy. And I really, really need to see the Lethal Weapon series, now. I also love that Barney's rave costume had a tie. ONLY BARNEY.
I haven't even gotten around to re-watching Lost. BUT THE GAME, HAHA OMG. I got Via Domus because it was the cheapest game they had that I wanted at Toys R' Us, even if it was bad. The first moment you see Michael, I was like, "Hey, I'm going to ask him about Walt." So I walk up to him and click the button and he immediately goes, "I can't find my boy. Waaaaalllttt!" I about died laughing. The acting is okay, it just doesn't go with the stunted animations worthy of early PS2 games, so everything sounds like... the Resident Evil 1 school of acting. Or Iron Man. "TONY! MEN! WITH GUNS! OUTSIDEEE." "STAY. INSIDE! PEPPER." lolol, licensed games will never not be funny. I still want Watchmen: The End Is Nigh, Rorschach's rage burst and all. Don't judge me.
