Did anybody see American Idol tonight? I don't usually watch it, but I caught a few minutes in the break room at work. This girl tried out wearing Princess Leia hair buns, some black & silver costume that she'd worn to C 4, and a big ol' belt that said STAR WARS. Her interview was all about her being a SW fan and a "dork" (that's what she called herself) and she said something to the judges about "M-class planets in Star Trek". raised_brow

And she couldn't sing.

But, when she got turned down, she acted a FOOL, calling people on her cell phone and cussing and saying it was because they didn't want "dorks" and Star Wars fans to be on American Idol and something about C 4. She lost me there.

It was, um, truly a proud moment for the fandom.

doh!

laugh

Oh, it gets worse. Apparently Idol had more plants in it tonight than a production of "Little Shop of Horrors".

The hairy dude from CIV that was dressed as Slave Leia was on, too. And they did a segment where they waxed his chest and sent him back out.

Kevin called me and told me to watch. Damn you, George Lucas! I freakin' HATE that show with a passion, but one damned Star Wars reference and here I am watching it.

People are always bombing on that show.

When is someone going to suicide-bomb?

I'm going to hell for saying that, aren't I?

Nah, maybe not. This is the show, after all, that gave us Ryan Seacrest, Clay Aiken, and Taylor Hicks.

I usually don't watch American Idol during the auditions, so I'm glad I missed that. I'm still recovering from watching the Memphis auditions last season. I was so proud. plain

If you're feeling brave, I have the YouTube clips of our fellow Star Wars fans on American Idol posted on my LiveJournal. Link here.

Hairy Slave Leia isn't hairy anymore. sad

Heath Ledger is dead from an apparent drug overdose. First Brad Renfro, now Heath... These things always come in threes.

I believe production has wrapped on The Dark Knight. It may affect re-shoots.

Ugh. Day from freaking hell. It's days like this that I thank God for the sauce. All I can say is I don't have much ass left- it all was chewed off today by the COO of my company.

I mentioned this over on the Regional Discussion board, but would any of our photoshop'ers like to try their hand at making a new banner for the SouthEast region? I know Rhonda and Nicki have made banners in the past. We could even use one of them and just change the wording.
