OK, that's it, I am finally REALLY P****D

Yeah, definitely some problems there. I was more musing about the fact that I crushed on some of the same guys my mom did, only a decade later. Which is strange to me, because we have such differing ideas now on what's "physically attractive."

Oh--and I found the image for that book cover


*cough* Sorry for the threadjack.

 

Hahaha, Tiger Beat. Too funny.

Good threadjack.

 

My mother still has mine and threatens to pull them out when I visit.

 

And Christina Applegate is STILL hot. Unnnnff.

"Saucy minx" is the correct term, I believe.

 

My room at my mom's was all about James Dean, but at my dad's, I had quite the Tiger Beat/bop collection circa 7th/8th grade. Oddly, I can't really remember whose pictures I had up beyond Jonathan Brandis and Rider Strong. My tastes at the time makes me think probably Jared Leto, Brad Renfro, Christian Slater, Vincent Kartheiser Edward Furlong (no idea how I got those two mixed up), and River Phoenix.

Edited to add: I also had it bad for Don Henley, Nicholas Cage (as Randy in Valley Girl) and Ralph Fiennes (as Heathcliff in Wuthering Heights), but they were a bit old for the likes of Tiger Beat.

 

Christian Slater, Corey Haim, NKOTB, Corey Haim Corey Haim... etc. Everywhere. So embarrassing.

 

I remember seeing Alyssa Milano as young girl on TV and thinking, Damn, she's going to be smoking hot as a woman. And she is. I don't understand the breast implants, but that was her decision, not mine.

 

The Kardashians appeal to the masses, who don't appreciate the finer nuances.

In that respect, they are similar to McDonald's restaurants.

Oh, and another thing they have in common with McDonald's: "over 1 billion served."

ZING!

 

There are people here who still have old-world wired television? Like, that comes through a cable or satellite dish..? O.O I discarded that shit years ago in favor of Netflix, Hulu Plus, Amazon Prime, torrents, and various other streaming methods . I mean I have a basic cable package; however, the coaxial cable extending impotently from the wall hangs as flaccid and unused and callously discarded as my own horrifically deformed micropenis, lurking behind my 60-inch 240Hz 3D LED-TV that I frequently use in a desperate and futile attempt at compensation (along with making fun of people on the internet who have older technologies) and which is attached to my PC via both HDMI and 15-pin VGA cables that run under the carpet.

But yeah, I hate the Kardashians too, and her sex tape sucks, for real. Seriously, it was almost as boring and linear and uncreative as Octomom's sex tape.

 

Actually for us not even cable or satellite.......free TV using a powered antenna.

I don't know. Alyssa did a vampire movie with some nude & sex scenes; her breasts were too firm & too perfectly formed. I vote implants.

 

Where I live, cable has the fastest Internet connection, so cable it is. Then I don't have to dick around with watching stuff days or weeks or months later.

Watching professional athletes is about equivalent to watching the kardashians. We are not talking about a high quality group of people here. We are talking about grossly overpaid entertainers that do stupid stuff for the camera. Caitlyn Jenner was a beloved professional athlete.

 

I could bundle our services through AT&T, get a Universe deal, and probably get 'cable' relatively cheap, and maybe faster internet.

But....
I'm not a TV person. My wife already watches too much TV.
I've never been impressed with the basic pay TV packages. It's pretty much the same shit as free TV, just more of it.
With some rare exceptions, the current internet speed is fine.

 

I'm not going to pay for the streaming costs when I get all the TV i need at the flat rate of $44/month from my cable provider.

oh and that pic of Christina Applegate - her face is beautiful
