I continue to steal for your amusement
Don’t know why I’m blogging so much today. Must have something to do with the fact that I have a novel due in TWO WEEKS and I’M HOPELESSLY FAR BEHIND. I’m surprised I’m not at the movies or watching a marathan TBS sob-fest or something.
Anyway, I’m always on the lookout to steal links from other people so you can laugh and think it’s because I said something funny. Memory is useful that way. Please go to Diana’s blog and look at the fake movie trailers she’s highlighted–Shining, Must Love Sharks, and my personal favorite, Ten Things I Hate About Commandments.

I know. my love for these knows no bounds. the Shining one creeps me out a great deal, because it’s SO believable. There’s another of Office Space recut to look like a thriller about a stapling serial killer… genius.

rb, get back to work you novel-writing avoidant slacker-whoshk (whip cracking, kind of a sound)!!!

I know, I know. But does it make you feel good to know that I’m up past my bedtime, having just come back from the dojo wedding, still in my makeup and pantyhose (a very extreme situation for me), and the first thing I did was sit down to see what was new with the blog? Because even though my own word count was ridiculously low today because of the wedding and other matters, I still wanted to make sure that your writing, Annette (in the form of your many entertaining comments to the blog) got posted before I went to bed.
Because although I may have to work fourteen hours a day every day to finish my novel, I will still always make sure the blog is there to meet your needs.
That’s the kind of selfless, time-management-spaz writer I am.
Good night.

OMG! These are amazing! I can’t stop looking them up on youtube now!!!

I agree that “Moses, Moses” part is the funniest. The Ten Commandments is one of my favorite movies of all time, and seeing it recut this way just tickles me no end.

I had to link the Office Space one to my brother’s myspace page. That’s one of his favorite movies and he’s totally going to flip when he sees it recut as a horror movie!!

Christen, please give me the link here, too. I love Office Space.

Christen and Patrick, those are both hilarious. I don’t know if it’s my computer or the links, though, but they kept pausing and I had to keep restarting. It’s probably me. Despite that, great trailers. Thank you!

Patrick, I *love* the Princess Bride Re-Cut (that’s actually my favorite movie). I think youtube is such a cool sight. It really allows people to express themselves and show off their creativity. Hahaha… I am not that creative. My youtube account consists of videos of my puppy and my dancing friends. Not too exciting! =)

Christen, if The Princess Bride is your favorite movie, you are in exactly the right place. Nearly all of us here (except, ahem, Annette)are lovers and quoters of the movie. It is, in a word, perfection.
December 2nd, 2006 at 6:07 pm
You keep using that word. I’m not sure you know what it means.

Unless I am wrong… and I am never wrong…

Christen, you are one of us.

there is obviously no hope, yet…however, as we speak, scientists are hard at work sequencing my dna to determine how i, out of millions of otherwise sort of normal americans, am unsusceptible to the addictive properties of “the princess bride” and all of the the sad, life altering consequences the addiction obviously carries with it (case in point, this blog). the goal being of course a vaccine–those few of us who carry this innate, but little understood, immunity, soldier on for all who have fallen.

Your disease makes me sad, Annette. Where can I make a donation?
December 3rd, 2006 at 5:51 pm
Annette, it will never happen. Your dna is laced with a weakness for David Bowie’s Area.
December 3rd, 2006 at 7:48 pm
too, too true. if they ever have a vaccine for that, i’ll be free at last.

Some things are core to our being, Annette. Without DBA, would you even BE ‘Annette’?
