See what I mean? But Denzel isn't what I'm thinking about. It's more the ending of the movie that got my butter churning. No spoiler here, it's just what Eli says: "Thank you Lord for giving me the strength. I finished the race." If you know any of the Gibson men, you know we're big on the concept of running to the tape, finishing the race. So here's the problem, and the other half of my "head movies." The race I'm currently running? I have zero interest in finishing it. (Let me be clear that there is no actual running going on here.) This race is my little Facebook project that I've previously outlined. Seemed like a good idea at the time, but after 4 days of doing everything that my homepage suggested, I'm about to lose my marbles (or head waffles, as we call them in rossnation...) Here's a quick recap of the junk I've had to like. We'll call this our ReCrap:
- How I Met Your Mother I do not care.
- Britney Spears Kill me now.
- Selena Gomez Am not familiar.
- Jackie Chan Well, he can kick things.
- Pawn Stars Poop.
- Knitting Super lame.
- Glee Super wicked lame.
- Tyler Perry Not funny.
- System of a Down Not music.
- Two and a Half Men Feel bad for people who watch this.
- Twilight Not a chance.
- Titanic Longest 6 hours of my life.
- Sponge Bob I don't get high.
- Avril Lavigne Canada is super clean, which is why Avril lives in the US now.
- Ashley Tisdale Nope.
- Vanessa Hudgins Not talented.
- Converse Eh, they can be comfy, but I can't pull it off.
- Grey's Anatomy Never.
- Farmville Sheep Not Farmville, just the sheep.
- Vice Ganda ??????????
- And everyone's fave, Justin Bieber I do not have Bieber Fever. I am perfectly healthy.
Perhaps you can see where I'm coming from. I have no desire to add more crap like this for the next 27 days. It's exhausting, and takes away the actual fun of communicating with friends, and turns the one hour into a chore. And I don't "like" chores for a reason. I'm a bit surprised that no one has suggested that I "like" chores yet, those of you looking to sabotage this endeavor. I would be perfectly happy to let this go away, and go back to life as it used to be (boring & sad), but if Denzel can finish the race, I pretty much have to. Especially now that I'm wearing the sunglasses. This is now a labor of love. Or a labor of loathe. Hence the Mortal Kombat reference in the title. FINISHHH!!!!!!
And as always, there is no charge for awesomeness...or attractiveness.
rossnation...out.
I can't even begin to tell you much I agree on most of these lame "likes." "Two and a Half Men" is one of the most unfunny shows around, Glee is actually harmful to one's health, and Tyler Perry stuff is decidedly unfunny in virtually every way.
