I know! That was very inhumane.
You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

Anybody else watch last night's America's Best Dance Crew?
First off, WTF is AfroBorike doing in the top two? They're really quite bad--just a lot of hot and sexy moves along with tons of flailing around. Watch their big number from last night, with the tribal drums and sexy costumes. Not a lot of there there. I wish Rhythm City had made it past last week.
Massive Monkeez really didn't perform well. Actually, they do the b-boy stuff excellently--they just can't dance otherwise. That attempt at James Brown was pathetic (knee jiggling isn't the same as foot steppin').
We Are Heroes just nailed both of their performances. I preferred their first number (the history of dance) over their big finale number, although that one is going to be remembered due to all the fire--these ladies sure do know how to stage something for maximum effect. They've been my favorites since the first ep, and I hope that they got the votes to win.

I'm really salty about this. Rhythm City was ROBBED. Beau walked through the living room when MM was on and he was like: "they don't have any rhythm." And you know what? He is right.
WAH was awesome. I wish they had danced like that all season.

It's on the tivo, i'll watch it tonight. Also AfroBorike's dancing seems kind of misogynistic. They're always mock hitting the girls, overly sexualized or almost physically abusive.

I sat next to Russell from Big Brother on the plane back from Vegas today.

Ugh. I saw the recap of AfroBorike and was reminded of why I don't like them. On top of everything else, they threw some shit on the dance floor in their first number. The second one was damn near insulting.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

But did you make out with him, Perkins?

I did not!

I really didn't talk to him much, beyond the typical getting settled into the seats stuff. I am pretty sure he knew I recognized him, but he seemed wary of being recognized, and I didn't think saying "hey, I know you. You're a douche" and "so how embarrassing is it that you lost to Natalie and Jordan", would help much, so we both just pretended I didn't.
He's not a tall person, and he didn't think that the rule about turning off electronic devices like his iphone applied to him, even after the flight attendant asked him twice.
Honestly, being able to text "OMG, I am sitting next to Russell from bb on the plane" to Jesse/you was the most fun part.
