Idol Chatter.

So, Erika and I have become addicted to "American Idol". Only God knows why...Oh yeah, Ellen. That's the main reason, but then we met Crystal Bowersox and Andrew Garcia and fell madly in love. It's good times, until the judges start yappin'. Seriously, these people should continuosly slurp their strategically placed cokes and STFU a good 90% of the time. I don't think they're in the same world we are. Kara is the new Paula, and Randy is the new annoying. And well, Simon is just Simon. Even Ellen makes me cock my head sideways like a google-eyed pug from time to time. Perhaps those for-mentioned Cokes have been tampered with. *Wink wink* *Nudge nudge* Perhaps they're not even Cokes at all. Did someone say whiskey? Hmmm. Perhaps.


As for the whole Crystal Bowersox illness/"Wait, what? The boys are going first? Isn't that against God or something?" moment: (as previously posted as a response to that yakk-fest of a Yahoo American Idol Blog. Don't get me started.) I think some people take this Idol thing waaaaaay too seriously and are prone to over analysis. The girl was sick and was hospitalized. Give her - and us - a break. I don't think that the producers were favoring her; I think they were giving someone who is talented a chance. Is it really that big of a deal that the boys had to bump it up a day? Um...no. It's a competition for one thing; and another, if these folks make it to the big time they'll have to deal with issues concerning time slot bumps and the like. It's all part of the game. And honestly, I feel sorry for Crystal. She seems an honest, down to earth sort who is probably embarrassed by all of this hullabaloo centering around her. On that note, I'll shut up. Lighten up people.

Oh yeah. I said it.
