Cigarettes on TV are bad

Haha Twitter is over capacity. Too many tweets. Now that’s funny.

I was just going to Twitter how sometimes I wish I could kill all the rude/ignorant people. I think that would take care of a good 50% of the population and I’m being very generous with that number. I had to deal with so many psycho drivers this morning and then on the way home that I was ready to blow my top. Don’t even get me started about stuff that happened at work…

Last night’s EP of How I Met Your Mother is what I really wanted to talk about. What the hell were the writers thinking? Thank you for completely ruining my mental picture of the characters. I’m supposed to believe that all this time not one, not two, but all five of those people were smokers and that this whole time they never showed it because future Ted didn’t want his kids to know? Well you guys all know how I feel about smoking and I think that it was a very irresponsible thing for the writers to put in that show. HIMYM has been on a decline in my eyes for some time now and that EP really didn’t help it.

My new favorite show is The Big Bang Theory. Oh my god do I love Sheldon! Last night’s EP was disappointing, however, and I actually deleted it off the DVR immediately after viewing it instead of watching it 2-3 times more first, but normally it is highly entertaining. I can’t believe I thought it was stupid for the first year it was on. I only recently got addicted during the second season. Now I own Seasons 1 and 2 on DVD so I can watch them anytime.

I also bought the entire Seinfeld series on DVD back on Labor Day when Amazon had it for $99. They had it for $85 on Black Friday but it’s back up to $140. That’s another show I used to think was stupid but now find entertaining. They put together the box set nicely too where 9 seasons of DVDs don’t take up a ridiculous amount of room (unlike Friends, thank you very much). I’ve really stopped buying DVDs other than the TV series. I almost never go back and watch movies so they are a waste of money. And thanks to my Discovercard’s cash back option I have an endless supply of free rentals from Blockbuster so I can see the latest release for free.

  1. I agree! I HATE smoking with a passion, and I even commented to Scott that I thought “less” of fictional tv characters now! But seriously, the whole show was about smoking and in the end they didn’t even give it up? I thought it was a poor topic handled badly.
