Movies

I recently got hooked on the BBC show called "The IT Crowd" which is completely ridiculous, but awesome as heck at the same time. Now my parents have started watching it, which made me a bit embarrassed at first because I thought they'd think it was stupid and then they'd think I was a complete moron for enjoying it. Not that they would do that, they're actually very nice people. And they enjoyed it too, so we had a good laugh together.

For some reason I'm always heckishly self-conscious about the kind of TV I like and I'm always paranoid that when I'm watching something with my siblings my mom and dad will come in at just the wrong time.

Just after Harry Potter 7 part 1 came out on DVD, my big sister Mary bought it and we were watching it in the living room. We were watching it and everything was hunky dory, but then we got to that gross bit when Harry opens the locket and Voldemort comes out in the form of Harry and Hermione kissing like there's no tomorrow and apparently forgot how to wear clothes.That's when my dad (who hadn't seen the movie yet and so didn't know what was going on) came into the room, and he's like "WHA...?!"

That was one of the more icky parts of Harry Potter. Call me prude but I don't like watching stuff that isn't meant to be watched by anybody except maybe perverted morons. I watched the last two Twilight movies with my aunt a couple of months ago. After the first one, I had to go wash my brain and throw up, and if you know why then I'm very sorry for you, but if you don't know why then ask somebody else. I still don't see why Bella couldn't have just got a C section to get the baby out. That would have spared me watching Edward trying to rip the baby out of her stomach with his teeth. That was bloody awful disgusting. I need to throw up again. And I've seen Saw, Jaws, Braveheart, and Texas Chainsaw Massacre without even blinking. And I used to watch that one bit of Lord of the Rings when Aragorn decapitates that orc about a hundred times in a row in slow motion, so I'm usually all right with blood.

Anyhow, I'm done for the day and I want some tea. Plus I just finished the IT Crowd, so I need to find a new British sitcom. So much to do.

Cheers,
