Somebody save me!!

[GirlinContempt]

I'm staying with my sister in Toronto, and she's sitting right in front of me, watching TV.
Not just any show, mind you.
OUTBACK JACK.
Somebody, save me.
If you're in the Toronto area, I'm on Euclid just off Queen West. feel free to cut the power, throw something in the window, ANYTHING.

HELP

1. I'm in Ohio, but I'll throw a rock as hard as I can in your direction eom

[GirlinContempt]

3. Thanks :)

2. Well, let's see... I am in NY... if we both throw rocks, we maybe

able to triangulate them right in the window.

I say, let's try.

[GirlinContempt]

8. Giv'er!

[HEyHEY]

4. Why? then you'd be in Toronto with no TV

I can't imagine anything worse than no mental escape from "T-dot"

[GirlinContempt]

6. I'm leaving on Saturday

I read books.
I don't watch TV.

[HEyHEY]

9. Oh EXCUUUUUUUSSS ME

For insulting you by suggesting you lower yourself to watch TV! I didn't mean to step on your toes oh enlightened one!

;-)

That was all a joke by the way

[GirlinContempt]

11. It'd better be

I'm as sick of people shitting on me for saying I read books as people claim they are sick of people shitting on them for watching TV

[HEyHEY]

15. People give you shit for reading?

On what basis
"Hey knock it off.....reader"

[GirlinContempt]

16. Because, apparently

when they say "Did you see the latest episode of such-and-such show" and I said "No, I don't watch TV" I'm being snotty and trying to prove I'm better than them... somehow...

[HEyHEY]

17. Oh THAT

Yeah, I'm going through that right now, because I don't have cable. So whenever someone says "DId you see...whatever" I answer "No I don't have cable" and then I get this look.

[GirlinContempt]

18. People actually say to me

sarcastically, "Oh, right, miss more-intellectual-than-thou" and shit like that.

I'm like, ok buddy, sorry I prefer reading to television, sorry I can't make you feel better about your own idiocy and obvious need for reassurance that you're just as smart as everyone else.

I read.

You watch TV.

So what.

5. What is OUTBACK JACK?

[GirlinContempt]

7. Some reality TV show

Some whiny effing girls get stuck with some muscle man in austrailia and try not to moan about their manicures so they can win his 'love'

[asthmaticeog]

10. So wait...

...they're competing for a guy they couldn't possibly have anything in common with? For the life of me, other than the schadenfreude value, I just don't freakin' get these shows.

[GirlinContempt]

12. Nor do I, darlin', nor do I

[pagerbear]

13. Visiting TO this weekend!

[GirlinContempt]

14. I'll just miss you!

I'm leaving Saturday :)
