But I don't want to watch the Oscars!

Oh God, I hate the Oscars. AND YET, NOW I AM COMPELLED.

Rejoice! Rejoice. You have no choice, rejoice...

[nitasee.livejournal.com]

I'm indifferent to them but now the power of The Daily Show compells me.

Then don't, dammit. You have to learn to be strong...be woman...be-bop. Besides, they've been going downhill ever since "The Devil in Miss Jones" was shut out in the Best Over-Animation category.

(Also, I can't stand Stewart, so the choice is easy for me.)

I'm compelled because inevitably someone is going to do something mind-boggingly nuts on purpose to increase their Q-rating and I don't want to have to depend on The Boring Show The Daily Show for clips.

It must've been the peyote.

The boyfriend and I were having this same discussion when we found out.

Awhile back in a heykidzcomix post, you recommended Kyle Baker's "Plastic Man: On the Lam". My local store only had "Rubber Bandits" which I enjoyed tremendously (I plan to get "On the Lam") so thanks for the rec!

Pleasure! heykidz originally recommended Rubber Bandits to me, so it's a privilige...lege...thing to share the love. Privelidge. Pirvlinge. Hell.

You would want to if you sat through last year's Oscars with Chris Rock as the unfunniest, most out-of-touch host in the history of time.

Oh come now. Surely you remember Whoopie Goldberg.

Personally, I'm elated, because I always watch the Oscars anyway. BECAUSE I HAVE NO TASTE.

[ahli.livejournal.com]

But Whoopi wasn't afraid to wear outfits inspired by the best costume design nominees and look fantastically stupid.
I always watch the oscars, too. Because I like yelling at my tv.

[dwinghy.livejournal.com]

Me too. The Oscars are good for armchair quarterbacks who don't like football but want to yell at the TV.

[annlarimer.livejournal.com]

I thought that's what the Westminster Dog Show was for.

I love the Oscars. No really. I used to get dressed up for them in outrageous outfits (ie, leggings and scarfs and costume jewelry). <3

[ahli.livejournal.com]

I had an oscar party in university once and got all dressed up. *shame* XD

You'll watch the Oscars and you'll like them, young lady! Why, when I was a kid, we BEGGED to see the Oscars. Back then, it was just one award, for best actor. Well, film hadn't been invented yet and women weren't allowed on stages, so one Oscar was all we needed. It traveled the countryside, strapped to the back of a covered wagon, and we'd ooooh and aaaaah as it passed through our little ghosttown. Wouldnt' stop for us, no, couldn't do that, too hard to get the horses starting up agin, dontcha know.

Afterwards, we'd all trudge uphill to the homestead again (it was uphill getting to town too, go figure) and git stuck back into reading by the firelight and ciphering on the back of the shovel blade with a bit of coal.

HEY! Wake up! I'm talking at ya!

I said the same

I may TiVo it and ffwd the boring bits. I think it's a secret plan to raise ratings. Sadly, it's working.

[theodicy.livejournal.com]

I know, I know. Happy sedatives will be provided.

[robanybody.livejournal.com]

Not even the power of Jon's weaselly little laugh can compel me to watch the Oscars.

[fictionbya.livejournal.com]

Now I have to watch it too. He better make it GOOD!
