You know, I miss the days when SNL was actually funny. 


In fact, it's gone beyond not funny at this point; I don't even know what they're trying to make jokes about. It's not only not funny, it's barely comprehensible.

I'm only watching it right now because Jake Gyllenhal is the host, and quite frankly I could be watching this on mute and still enjoy looking at him.




On the other hand, the magician I saw at the Paramount tonight was HYSTERICAL. His name was Mike Super, and he was truly amazing. His tricks were extremely well executed, and he was cute and funny and just ridiculously entertaining. And I think he was gay, but that's beside the point. (No straight man wears 1. A shirt like that, even if he is a magician   2. That much eye makeup in his promo photos.)

He made up his own word, but I forget what it is. I'll go back to his website (www.mikesuper.com) tomorrow and find out.

Oh, and apparantly he has a TV show coming out later this year, so that's cool. I saw a celebrity in the making! Whee!!

Last Night

May. 14th, 2006 04:38 pm
Ok, so Erin and Kristen and I went to see Thank You For Smoking at Westway last night... and it was HYSTERICAL.

"The great state of Vermont will not apologize for its cheese!"

Also, Katie Holmes got screwed (in more ways than one) and I don't like her so that was good.

Then on the way home Erin and I drove past one of those big light-up sign things that says how fast you're going, and just to spite the stupid thing I floored it. So it changes from telling me my speed to flashing "SLOW DOWN". Erin and I almost died laughing.


And now, some highlights from last night's SNL:

Al Gore was really on it. Even though he wasn't hosting. And he was funny.

Oh, and there was this sketch about Myspace and this teenage-ish guy was teaching a class for adults on how to use myspace, and the class consisted of one woman wanting to see what her daughter was up to, and like 15 middle aged sketchy men. And it was all about how Myspace doesn't have a way to police how old you actually are or what picture you use or to prevent 45 year old perverts from meeting young girls in real life. It was hysterical, and served as further proof that MYSPACE IS EVIL.

Amy: Oh come on. We all know that the increased number of hurricanes is because of gay marriage.

Tina: 52% of teens that take virginity pledges recant them within 12 months. If I'm on my game.



Ahhh, it was a good night. Today hasn't been quite as good, but whatever. I got to eat a lot at brunch today, so that was good.


P.S. Since when is Inuyasha back on Saturdays at 11? Why doesn't anyone tell me these things?!?!
Saw Heather's play tonight. I think I'm now officially a Tennessee Williams buff. God it was sad. Good, but sad.

"The show is over. The monkey is dead." I don't know if that was supposed to be funny the first time, but I laughed. The second time, definately not. Shawn shot my pregnant cousin!

I don't want to go back to school. Don't make me!

They showed this clip on SNL of Richard Pryor and Chevy Chase when Pryor was on the show. They're like doing word association and all Chevy's words are black slurs, and all Pryor's are white slurs, and finally they get to:
Chevy: Nigger.
Pryor: Dead honky.

I am very easily amused.

I came out as a slasher to my mom, and I'm not really sure how she took it. She's been irritable all day. But she didn't really seem to care too much, so I bet it's ok.

I feel like I've wasted this whole vacation. I didn't DO anything. (Not that I actually had anything to do, but still.) I didn't even practice my clarinet once all week.

Oh well, there are worse things I suppose. Like having to tell JVL* that I'm not going to be here this weekend because of the band trip.

Oh, and if you are in a horror movie and you have sex, you will die. No matter how bad the CGI is.

*JVL = John van Luling. I'm stage managing his senior seminar.
