“Gays and republicans. What a bunch of drama queens”

There are few shows on right now that actually make me laugh out loud (sadly, Fox’s Laugh out Loud Sunday(TM) isn’t included), and Whoopi is certainly one of them. Tonight’s episode was about gay (well, lesbian) marriage, and it was HILARIOUS. They had a republican convention in the next room..

Republican: “Excuse me, but some of us are offended by this..”
Whoopi: “Excuse me, but some of us are offended by President Bush.”

And when they were deciding where each guest would go, it went something like this:
Woman: “I’m here for the marriage”
Whoopi: “Go in that room”
…
Man: “I’m here for the republican party convention”
Whoopi: “That room over there”
…..
Woman: “I’m here for the bush event”
*audience cracks up, me included*
Whoopi: “… could you be more specific?”

ROFL!!

It was amazing, I wish I had taped it. Perhaps I’ll snag it off kazaa later or something.

Ok, so I’m browsing the ChangeLog for GNOME 2.6 rc1 and I came across this entry:

What did I ever do to esound? Bastards.

Ok, so last week my mom (hi mom!) told me how to make tuna or salmon croquettes, and I cooked some tonight. Set of the smoke detector, as i do every time I attempt to fry anything, but overall it came out pretty good.

Basically, you mix canned tuna or salmon with bread crumbs, an egg, and seasonings (I made ’em spicey, since Grandma doesn’t live here. crushed red peppers, bwahahaha!!), mix it all up ’till it turns into a paste, squish them into burger shapes, and fry ’em in butter. Yummy!

I practiced with tuna tonight, I’m gonna cook salmon ones for jay jay jay when he stops dying and comes back from Scott’s.

Jay, stop dying. Newark is scary alone.

Ok, so Gillian, Jay, and I went to The Break today. They have a bunch of arcade machines, including DDR Extreme, DDR 5th mix, Beatmania 6th mix, Guitar Freaks (wasn’t turned on), and another Beatmania mix.

Gillian and I decided to try out Beatmania while Jay was playing DDR Extreme. We walked up to the newer machine (I forgot the mix), and it had written on it “This is for advanced players! Don’t try to play this if you’re not comfortable with level 7 or higher!” So we avoided that one and went to the Beatmania 6th mix machine.

Beatmania is basically a piano keyboard with 5 notes, with a turntable next to it for “scratching”. You have to press the notes and scratch according to the screen, like DDR, and it’s hard as hell! But… I GOT THE #1 HIGH SCORE ON THE MACHINE!!! Which is sad, because I did horribly. I assume the machine was recently reset, or noone else plays it, or everyone else just sucks too. The machine itself was frustrating, it takes forever to start playing a song, and the high score screen only displayed for a few seconds, so I didn’t manage to get a picture of it. I kept waiting throughout the attraction mode demos, but still no scores 🙁

After that we played with the DDR Extreme and DDR 5th mix machines, it was a lot of fun. Jay kept picking hard songs, and Gillian kept picking easy ones. No more high scores, though. Apparently they have competitions and stuff there, so people a lot better than us have been using those machines. There was actually someone there that was better than Jay! But don’t tell anyone. We’ll pretend it never happened.

Next time, hopefully they’ll have Guitar Freaks hooked up so we can try that one out too!
