So, just like Ker, I am a sucker for TV. If Ker is the TV whore...I could easily be her pimp.
I used to think watching so much TV was a bad thing, but boy can I hold a conversation with my slacker employees over lunch (and breakfast, and in our staff meeting, and while they type a report, etc.). I feel very important when I can say who got kicked off of Idol, or who Chef Ramsey called a $@#&^! donkey this week, or who McSteamy slept with in the supply room.
We use our DVR to the max. We record tons of shows every week on our DVR, or should I say DVRs...we have one in our family room and one in our bedroom. A dedicated TVpimp would never be without two...
We even have gone through multiple DVRs from Comcast, that the women at the counter sigh when they see me every couple of months. We push that DVR to the limit...taping two shows and watching another taped show at the same time. It takes much practice, so please, do not try this yourself.
I now can't watch regular television without it being recorded. I start to tremble, have cold sweats, I barely can see, and I have to lay down. It is that Geico money staring at me...it is the kid and mother fighting over roll-over minutes...it is Flo shreiking about how much money you can save with Progressive...it those those horrible Cavemen now trying their hand at bowling.
All of them put together just sends me right over the edge. I actually would rather go downstairs and walk on my treadmill. (oh yeah, that might actually solve the happy fat issue). The treadmill actually might not be that bad..we have a TV hanging from the ceiling in front of it with mulitple seasons of Weeds and Entourage for your viewing pleasure. It is like I am always trying to catch up to Mary Louise Parker as she scores her next pot deal.
(I will admit I currently like the below commercial - the point, where I will rewind the DVR and watch again...don't tell anyone...and I have no idea why I think what the asian dude says is funny, I just do.)
Some commercials aren't half bad - for example, why didn't we see THIS commercial while figuring out who was the Harper's Island murderer?
So, in honor of Ker and my TV whoredom...we are instituting a new feature picked especially for you...Friday Clip O' Laughter. It will be a short snippet for your viewing pleasure related to some show that Ker and I are addicted to that week (and just so you know, we could do this special feature every week for many many years -so fasten your seat belts and enjoy the ride.)
This week, I chose this clip especially for you who have casual Fridays...Let me just say, I hope you don't have a Meredith in your office. Or if you do, don't come out of your cube.
