Not Quite As Planned

Hey peeps. Sorry to lay a lame-ass wannabe rant on you again, after a holiday season of "Sorry, Annie's out doing [activity here]" or "we stayed up late doing [thing here], sorry no rant," but this is the last of the lot. I promise. And it has nothing at all to do with World of Warcraft. On an unrelated note, I got something like 4 levels since I got back. Woo! But also awww. Annie is bad. This is very true.
In other news, our downstairs neighbors are assholes and I don't care who knows. THEY ARE ASSHOLES. Trust me on this one. Just do. You may not know me for an honest Puck, but I promise you that no hyperbole is needed in any documentation of their actions to make any jury see it my way. I just needed to say that. We shall move on now.
A second round of thanks and praise to the talented and hilarious Pat Hightower for the last comic - I was summarily impressed not only by the comic's hilarity, but by it really being something that Blue would SAY. I mean, she's not an Aquaman fan, but she does have a small place in her heart for ridiculous superheroes (and not to mention that one old-school Adult Swim ad where Aquaman just walks into a supermarket and starts shaking his ass like mad to some hot dance music), of which he is maybe not king but still up there in the hierarchy. As my friend Kevin put it, Aquaman really does get the shaft, but if you watch old SuperFriends episodes, everybody gets one-upped by Superman. They have something with a dam breaking like "oh here you go, Aquaman, something for YOU to do" but in the end he's not strong enough and Superman has to save the day. Bleah and lame. Plus I like Batman better. But Marvel has Wolverine so I like them the best. THE END. How did this part of the rant end up sounding like a first-grade writing assignment? Who even knows. Moving on!
Now, I don't hate Bam Margera. But he really is a spoiled little kid. He beats on his friends, he humiliates his parents, and whines like a baby when the joke doesn't go his way. Sure, some of his stunts are amusing, and he's a damn good skater (although nothing compared to the Birdman, Tony Hawk - Birdman can go through a loop-de-loop and Bam can't even make it: ain't nobody can't say I haven't done my homework!), but in the end I don't like Viva La Bam all that much, where I thought Jackass was on the whole much funnier. I also read high literature, had my secondary emphasis for my English major on Shakespeare, and my favorite composer is Tchaikovsky. I'm just saying is all. Covering all my bases here.
Heh. Another tradition: saying this will be a short rant and then it being almost a page long. TRICKERY! I am full of TRICKERY! Bah-ha-haaaah! ::clears throat:: Anyhow. I hope you all had the most happiest of holidays, thanks for putting up with all the filler (and even enjoying it, particularly the kitten filler - they ARE the cutest kittens ever, despite being full of The Mischief), take care, and be well.
Pocket Monster,
Annie "Blue" Carlson
I think that this could last
I hope that this will last
I know that this will last forever
