I know, I know… two posts in one day. Crazy, right? Well, maybe it’s good. Maybe I just need to use this space for stupid little crap that I notice or think of, so I don’t tell everybody the same things over and over again.

Anyway, so there’s that movie that’s out now, Black Snake Moan, right? Well, I couldn’t tell from the previews what the hell it was supposed to be about (Has he kidnapped her? Is he absolving her? Why is she never wearing pants?)… so I paid a visit to my good friend IMDB. So, I’m reading about it, and then I scroll down to this:

¿Qué mierda?

First off, a quick word on Wednesday’s Top Model premiere: absofiercetastic. It was so thoroughly entertaining that, at one point, I was crying, and Sarah was laughing so hard she couldn’t sit up. Watch here for a recap soon (I may also delve into the archive for my Cycle 7 and — just maybe — my Cycle 6 recaps), and be prepared to be truly enlightened.

In other television-related stupidity, I was watching ¿Qué dice la gente? last night (the Spanish-language version of Family Feud that they show on Univisión), and a couple of questions struck me, either for my own dumbness or that of the contestants. Let’s play along!

Just thought I’d share

So, I’m making oatmeal cookies for my office, and I’m starting the dough, and when it comes time to add the egg, I think to myself, “Should I try it with applesauce instead? They might taste really good with applesauce.” I go to the computer and look up what amount of applesauce would be the equivalent of one egg, or if there’s another substitute I could use (banana, zum Beispiel). Anyway, I’m having trouble finding the information I want, and I finally decide, “You know what? I’ll figure it out later. I know the cookies are awesome with egg, so I’ll just use egg.” I grab the egg carton, knock it against the refrigerator door, and drop it, destroying the eggs. So now I’m back on again, looking up what amount of applesauce would be the equivalent of one egg.

Just thought I’d share my stupidity.

UPDATE, three minutes later: The applesauce made a hissing noise when I opened it and tasted like formaldehyde (or, what I imagine it would taste like).  Onto the banana!
