 | 09:13 pm - It's official: Television really does rot your brain.
Let's talk about commercials.
If you've been paying attention, you know this means "Let's talk about gender and advertising", so feel free to skip to the bottom.
( Here there be videos and feminist rage )
In other news, I need an apron, because cooking is messy and I wear nice clothes. I need someone to talk me out of buying one from CafePress, or at least help me decide which one to get. 'Cause see, there's Tiny Castiel, which is just too cute for words, but then there's The Angels have the Phonebox, because LOVE, and we can't forget about the Torchwood logo, which now that I think about it is kind of funny if you consider the food on the show, and there's the Map of Gallifrey, which is super pretty and awesome. Opinions?
ETA: I R DUM. Can somebody tell me how to embed video? It's not working so good.

 | 09:05 pm - trials and tribulations of going veg
So we picked up dinner from Sonic tonight, and I asked my sister (who was driving) to ask whether they had veggie burgers. It's not on the menu, but you never know. There was a momentary silence, then the guy said "Yeah, we do." So I, absolutely ecstatic that someplace besides Burger King carries them, order a veggie burger. The guy asked what I wanted on it. I told him, and he was like, "So, you just want lettuce, tomato, pickles, and mustard on that veggie burger?" Well, yes. So we wait for a bit, and the server brings out our food. I open my little foil packet, look at the burger and find that it is, in fact, lettuce, tomato, pickles, and mustard on a bun. That's it.
It ruffles me a bit to order a "veggie sandwich" at a restaurant and get what basically amounts to salad on bread, and there are far too many places that do exactly that. No wonder people are so resistant to eating less meat when they think that is the alternative. And really, who doesn't know what a freakin' veggie burger is?
Oh well. At least I have food.
In related news, I told my mom and my sister why we shouldn't buy diamonds. Sister was not pleased.

 | 11:02 am - It's nice to have options.
This really is one of the best memes:
Comment on this entry to receive four famous people to snog, shag, marry and throw off a cliff.
I got Gerard Butler, James McAvoy, Christian Bale, and Ben Barnes (on loan from ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) anexbeautyqueen.
Gerard Butler: shag
Just look at that physique. Really. Plus, he's bisexual, which just means for fun for everyone.
James McAvoy: snog
It's the eyes. They kill me.
Christian Bale: cliff
After his last few movies, I am not pleased. I mean, they handed him John Connor, and he fucked it up. What the hell?
Ben Barnes: marry
We're meant to be, you guys. Trufax.
And now I'm gonna go watch my other two boyfriends, Sam and Dean.
