I Suck At Lost

Last night, Karen and I hung out with our friends (Marc, Kelley, and Andrea). On the agenda for the night: the next episode of Lost. Unfortunately, I suck at Lost.

While the four of us waited for Andrea, we decided to watch the next episode of television's greatest show: Buffy the Vampire Slayer. The episode that we watched was "Villains", whereby Willow invokes dark magic to get revenge on Warren for the death of Tara. Nothing starts off a good night like watching Warren's flesh rip off his body.

Speaking of geeks, Andrea arrived in time for our discussion about Jay Baruchel. Jay Baruchel stars in the upcoming movie "She's Out of My League", about some guy who starts dating a woman... out of his league (played by Alice Eve). The commercial for the movie came on while all of us were eating takeout from the Little Duck, located in Quincy. (I had the pad thai... delicious!)

Anyway, I thought the movie was definitely pure Hollywood because a geek would never end up dating someone out of their league unless it were pure Hollywood... or the geek were rich... or possibly the geek were a musician. After all, how many fanboys do you see walking around with models on their arms? I'm guessing not many. (It's much like the same premise of the Big Bang Theory television show.) Of course, I could be mistaken. After all, "nerd chic" is gaining momentum these days.

Oh, it turns out... I learned a new fact yesterday about Andrea. Apparently Andrea likes men with accents... preferably from Europe... or Texas. If she were to encounter a geek with an accent, I have no idea what would happen. My guess is that the geek would simply walk away due socially awkward skills.

And if things weren't non-sequitor as it is in this post, Kelly Ripa weighed anywhere from 92 to 108 pounds. Apparently in a September 15th, 2008 episode of her show she weighed in at 92 pounds. Since then, she weighed herself on David Letterman, coming in at 108 and apparently currently maintains a weight from 100 to 110 pounds. Yes, that is a very random fact... thanks to Google.

The five of us had wondered that fact after Kelley poked fun at how I commented on Kelly Ripa's defined arms. And yes, for someone of her size and stature, Kelly Ripa does have nice defined arms. (As well, Kelly Ripa will be 40 this year come October 2.)

Aside from the random discussions during out Thai takeout dinner, the latest episode of Lost was good. Of course, there are still no answers to the show, but it's still grossly entertaining. Although, viewers expecting to see Sawyer will be disappointed because he does not appear in the episode.

All in all, it was a great night hanging out with everyone.
