And what are you thinking about this Monday?

1. Morgan Freeman was in a serious car accident last night. I'm hoping it turns out okay, but um, is the Batman project cursed? Seriously, y'all?

2. [livejournal.com profile] hackthis: Shiloh Jolie Pitt looks like a mini Katee Sackhoff.
[livejournal.com profile] serialkarma: oooh, maybe Katee's the real mother!
[livejournal.com profile] hackthis: That's just Cylon propaganda you're spouting now. OMG! Shiloh is the missing Cylon!
[livejournal.com profile] serialkarma: Well, that would totally explain a LOT.

3. Mad Men people, if you've ever asked yourself What Would Don Draper Do?, well now you know. Yes, I made an LJ feed.

4. Even Christian Bale thinks Bruce needs to get it on. Bruce/Harvey pron for the motherfucking win.

5.


Dear Mad Men:

Joan, you continue to be the pinnacle of hotass. I mean really.

Paul, you are being a douche. Leave the poor girl alone. She is not your fucking race trophy.

Pete, um, yeah. I never thought I would ever have sympathy for you, and yet… I know it didn't help that Don kicked you out when you only wanted him to bend you over the desk.

Peggy, girrrrrrrrrrrrrrl. I thought the baby might've been put up for adoption, but no, you left it with your mom and sister. Matt, please to be showing Peggy on the doorstep with a baby and a big old, um, so I made a boo-boo explanation.

Don, you are the man all men want to be and the man all women want to fuck. What's it like to look in the mirror every day and know this?

Carry on!
Me



Dear Generation Kill:

Nathan, I am sorry you are possibly going to be disciplined and not in the good way, but being mean to Brad isn't the answer. He does mean it in the homosexual way when he says he loves you. And gun oil. And I really think that you should ask Rudy for some sex pointers. And make it up to Brad.

Brad, holy mother of Buddha, please to always wander around naked.

Dear guy who was Stephen on Kitchen Confidential, Plz to always threaten to kick Captain America's heine.

Twomby, you are a fucktard.

Ray, you are continual awesome. Your sing-a-longs give my life purpose, but I'm still blinking that you were jerking off five feet from Brad in his grave. Is there something you want to tell me?

Rudy, I never see enough of your pretty visage. I can't believe you were actually IN the marines.

<3,
Me


Dear Burn Notice,

I have never liked Nate and yet when he appeared on the screen I clapped. Such is your power over me. Also, Sam your power of awesome continues to overtake all. Teach me interrogation plz?

<3,
Me



Dear Mike Rowe:

Your hot never wanes. This is most impressive when you are shrieking about the sharks.

<3
Me

Joan was taking out her bitterness on an innocent person, which just ain't cool.

I actually made another comment after the original post specifically about Joan being how she is (http://hackthis.livejournal.com/492399.html?thread=13407343#t13407343), which addresses this. The entire thread is a conversation of what exactly is it about Joan that makes her the way it is. At the end [livejournal.com profile] serialkarma has a link to Jezebel, which asks where all the bitches have gone. While the article itself isn't necessarily what I'm aiming for, they made a great point about how the most effective insults are able to find the opponent's weak-points and dig in. This is what Joan does, regardless of whomever she's talking to. At one point she calls Paul a poor little rich boy. Now I dunno if he's rich and got cut off, or if he's faux rich, but that totally smarks when he's clearly not swimming in the cash. Not that Sheila's being black is a weakness in and off itself, but how in 1962 it sure as hell was viewed as such by others. Which then makes me wonder how Sheila must've felt at this part. I wonder if it was her GF debut? I know she had to be uncomfortable, not because she doesn't fit it, but because it's 1962 and she's the only visible minority in a room full of white people. Now THAT conversation I'd like to see.

There were a few more black people in the background shots.

In the conversation thread you linked to, you say Joan's not nice to anyone. That's not precisely true; she sticks up for her team of secretaries in the office all the time. I understand what makes Joan the way she is. She's a woman of her time making her way in a man's world, using the weapons at her disposal. And I applaud her being a bitch to those who deserve it. But Sheila did not, and that's my point. Let Joan blast away at Paul all she likes, but insulting Sheila was like shooting gnats with a howitzer: not only is it overkill, but the gnats aren't even hurting you!
