Buster, The Troubled Ghost.
The main purpose of this post is to show you the ‘game’ that my twelve-year-old brother made in Flash. It is called Buster the Troubled Ghost, and I adore it. I giggle hysterically throughout the whole thing. It is fantastic.
When the house appears, move your mouse over the screen from the Start sign to wherever you want Buster to go.
YES I KNOW IT HAS NO GAMEPLAY VALUE WHATSOEVER AND CAN BE EASILY CHEATED AND IS UTTER NONSENSE. THAT IS NOT THE POINT. THE POINT IS THE INEXPRESSIBLY BEAUTIFUL SOUNDTRACK. BE SURE TO HAVE YOUR SOUND ON.
Why I Should Never Allow My Mother To Persuade Me Into Watching American Idol With Her (Yes, I Know, Shut Up):
Reasonably Sane American Idol Fans (assuming that such exist): Well, she’s a better singer, but his attitude and ridiculous dancing make him very appealing. Hmm.
Slightly Less Sane American Idol Fans: OMG ACE TAKE ME NOW!
Riona, Hitting Whole New Levels Of Insanity: OMG RYAN SEACREST/SIMON COWELL OTP FOR EVER.
Seriously.
Ryan: I had a dream about you last night, Simon.
Simon: That doesn’t surprise me.
Ryan: *laughs* No, I had a dream that you gave constructive criticism. Could you just try –
Simon: I don’t want to discuss whatever fantasy dreams you have about me. Let’s just keep that off-camera, shall we?
Ryan: No, I – *cracks up* Oh, you wish.
My opinion on the singers? There were singers? Um, Taylor was interesting, but if I keep watching (WHICH I WON'T IN FACT I NEVER WATCHED IT IN THE FIRST PLACE DON'T JUDGE ME) it’ll be for the Seacrest/Cowell subtext.
I can’t believe I’ve got an RPS pairing now. And from Idol. I am overwhelmed by shame.
(Don't worry; I'm not yet one of those crazy people who actually believe in their RPS pairings.
Not yet.)
(EDIT: Eleven months later, and ahahaha, 'I can't believe I've got an RPS pairing now'? Oh, Past Riona, if only you knew.
Anyway! I thought I should make a note of Cowell calling Seacrest 'sweetheart' and Seacrest's "Don't call me 'sweetheart'. We don't have that kind of relationship. I don't want that kind of relationship." And then Randy said "I think you two need to talk." I barely ever watch this, so I have to wonder: I don't watch many episodes, and I'm never more than half-watching, so are they always being gay, or do I just happen to catch the particularly gay episodes?)
