Seriously yikes, Kat. The SO sends peace wishes in your direction, the school's, and your folks.

Angelina is my total blind spot ever since Hackers. I just think she's so great.

Hah, sumi.

Man, it is super windy here. Classes today went really well, but the commute was apocalyptic. I doubt we'll have school tomorrow and I think they called it early today. The principal had us text her from the road to tell her what the conditions were like.

I need to haul firewood, and instead I ate lunch and had a case of the doanwannas, but I just looked out the window, and I can *see* the snow heading over the horizon. So I better get my ass out there.

I think my Jolie love came about when I watched an interview with her about the Oscars where she talked about just leaving after the show to go to In and Out. The people behind the counter asked, "what, they don't feed you?"

And they don't have food until after the show, but they prefer to just get takeout and go home. It struck her as funny to be standing in line at a burger joint wearing a ridiculous dress and jewels. When they do stuff like this, they just tell their kids they're going to work and they'll be home in a few hours. It made her kind of likeable to me, in that, "I don't know you and maybe you're a terrible asshole but that was a cute story so maybe you're cool" sort of way.

I think she was doing the pose because she thought it was funny.

It appears as though she thinks the whole idea of her being the most beautiful human on the planet funny, and sort of appalling, but it pays a lot of money.

I don't know if any of you follow The Bloggess on twitter, but it seems that her fans have been a bit unseemly in their attempt to get Nathan Fillion to pose with twine and now Simon Pegg has weighed in on it.

Once Angelina stopped tongue-kissing her brother and carrying other people's blood around she stopped engendering high levels of emotion in me. She seems like she's just going about her own business, and it's a lot of business, but she doesn't seem to be playing the media or trying to generate a shitstorm of any sort. She just kinda faded off my radar.

I think she's another really tiny chick playing outside her weight class onscreen, but I'm not going to tell her to turn down the roles, and the world isn't going to accept her gaining much weight, so the only thing to do is have more Gina Caranos and larger women getting action roles.

I also hate the crap about how thin she is just as much as I would cringe over someone ragging on Melissa McCarthy's body. I don't think Jolie is about to be hospitalized for malnutrition any time soon.

Ah, sorry that I offended/irritated you and a couple of others. I certainly wouldn't comment negatively on weight (or plastic surgery results, or a host of other appearance-related things I might post my opinions about here) to someone directly. Like I said, I think she's gorgeous... which is more along the lines of what I would absolutely tell someone directly.

I thought she was being goofy on purpose with the pose.

I just found out that the director who's being used in all those raging Hitler videos is actually highly amused with the whole thing, but:

He adds, "If only I got royalties for it, then I'd be even happier."

Perfectly reasonable behaviour.

I stacked less than half a rick of firewood, but that's all I have in me. It is just brutal out there. It is the weather that I imagine the Little House on the Prairie folks slogging through. Only I don't have to for survival, so I'm not going to. I'm coming in and lying down on my flannel sheets and playing pocket frogs, and the wind can try to blow my house down without me. Sheesh.

I think she's another really tiny chick playing outside her weight class onscreen, but I'm not going to tell her to turn down the roles, and the world isn't going to accept her gaining much weight, so the only thing to do is have more Gina Caranos and larger women getting action roles.

Yeah, that. Which is funny, cause I know a bigger woman would never have been cast as Aeryn Sun, and Claudia Black is a tiny tiny thing, but then they put her on these platform boots to make her taller onscreen. Hmm.

Assuming she could act, how would Rhianna do as an action hero? Though come to think of it, that is not always a requirement.
