I used the phrase "homosocial" in conversation at dinner with MrIris. Clearly I have read too many gender and cultural studies books.
My favorite jeans now come off without unzipping or unbuttoning. It's not like I couldn't stand to lose the weight, but. My favorite jeans.
Chris Pine is far more attractive in his promo interviews and as Danny in Blind Dating than he is as Captain Kirk (except in the bar fight scene. STFU, I don't have a blood kink or a soft spot for disillusioned rebels). And I'm still annoyed, even after multiple viewings, that Uhura as a classmate of Kirk's goes from being called lieutenant by Spock to cadet by Pike and then back to lieutenant, while Chekov is an ensign. WTF, inconsistency? Also, how does Bones manage to be "senior medical staff" when he's still a cadet too?
I get that Michael Jackson was a pop culture icon, but there's OTHER STUFF GOING ON IN THE WORLD. Mass media could cover, oh, I don't know, the continuing troubles in Iran? The withdrawal of troops from some areas of Iraq and escalation in Afghanistan? The repercussions of the military coup in Honduras? Just to name a few things.
