withimpunityWatched Why We Fight and Points tonight with my brother. They're studying the Holocaust in history right now and he wanted to re-watch those.
Mostly I just wanted to gush, because fandom is cool and all, but for a while I didn't have anyone in real life to like, share it with, you know? And that just sucks. I like to share my obsessions with people and my husband, he likes most of it, but that's where it ends. He doesn't get overly excited about much, haha. My sister and I used to be so fucking into Buffy, before we even knew fandom existed. We made music videos and wallpapers and desktop themes and shit. It was fucking awesome. And then one day she went from eighteen to sixty-five years old and her favorite show became Jon and Kate Plus Eight and I don't even KNOW, OKAY? But my brother, he's kind of awesome. I used to complain because he's at my house ALL the fucking time, but he recently got a job so he's not so much anymore, so he just comes over on the weekend and we catch up on Supernatural and Justified and Lost and he makes me watch Smallville, eugh, and then when we're all caught up on that we pop in BoB or Generation Kill, or watch some older episodes of Supernatural or Life. Kid can quote Charlie Crews better than I can.
The best thing is his crossover quotes. Sometimes all we DO is talk in quotes. We'll start with one and it will lead to another and then that will drift to a different quote from a different show and its like the Kevin Bacon game, except with QUOTES. It's fantastic. And it makes my husband want to kill us both. :D
Some quotes from tonight's viewing of BoB:
At the beginning of Points, the sad music and needing a drink bad!Nix:
"That's not Mozart. It's Beethoven."
Brother: "I feel like him saying Beethoven should be a defining point here. I don't get it. Nix is like That's Beethoven. BLUE STEEL." THEN HE FUCKING DID THE JARED PADALECKI BLUE STEEL FACE LMAO. War should not be this comical.
Nix "It's not even her dog! ITS MY DOG!"
Brother: "This is not Nix's best day ever." A beat. "At least he's not naked." MAL REYNOLDS REFERENCE ANYONE?
Brother: "Perconte's brushing his teeth again. Must be Thursday." LOL A+
And this isn't the same thing, but when they're walking through the forest and Perco's like, this kinda reminds me of Bastogne and Luz is all yeah except for the EXPLODING TREES AND THE FREEZING COLD AND THE PEOPLE EXPLODING - Sure Frank, its a lot like Bastogne." We both went "RIGHT?" at the same time and lol'd about it. And the same thing at "YOU HAVE HORSES WHAT WERE YOU THINKING!" LOL Webster ftw.
And the rest of the episode was sad horribleness, so no funnies. Lieb. D: This episode makes me want to write an Ode to Joe Liebgott: Fiesty Little Pitbull Paratrooper or something. I love you LIEEEEEB. D:
And then there was Points and it's a whole lot of angst too. But we did figure out that Nix was inventing the term "douchebag" at the end of this scene. YOU CAN SEE IT, RIGHT?
So much Nixon/Winters flirting in here. Ron and Damien have ~chemistry~, I'm just sayin.
"Are you in on this too?"
"I can't let him go by himself. He doesn't know where it is."
GRAAH NIXON'S FAAAAACE. He is so in love with Dick Winters that it hurts. He's just gonna follow him into war like a loyal little puppy with an alcohol problem. AWW.
DON'T SALUTE THE GERMANS. Hahaha ftw, Web. FTW.
This concludes my completely pointless post of boredom. I leave you with a picture and some last words:
THANK YOU, HBO.
