Some Like It Hoth

Let's recap the most recent Lost episode:

#1 -- Miles is now officially the greatest character on this show. When someone asks, "What lies in the shadow of the statue?" one of the best possible responses is to look at them like they are an idiot. Because they are.

#2 -- Bram is officially the lamest character. (Even lamer than Jack's tattoos, which is pretty huge when you think about it) Shut up, Bram. Star Wars fans: is he lamer than Ewoks?

#3 -- Daniel Faraday!

Popular Mechanics.

I'm so cancelling my subscription to Popular Mechanics. Those bastards think they can get a Professor of Egyptology and Chair of Egyptology to try to get me to care. Psssh, think again, magazine, I will recycle your ass so fast.

We could theorize until the cows come home about what this all means—is the smoke monster supposed to represent Apep, the god of evil, or is he more akin to Anubis, determining the afterlife of the dead? —but we'll leave that up to you.

Thanks, but no thanks Erin Scottberg.

He's Our You

Wow, I think this blogging thing just might be working, another statue free episode, hurrah! Oh, no wait, people still have to bring everything back to the damn statue.

From a Lost discussion board* re: Sayid shooting lil' Ben Linus:

"Maybe Sayid only shot off one of his toes."

Yes, he totally shot the toe in the middle of his chest, good catch! Way to go, you solved Lost.

Idiot.

*Since I actually really enjoy where this Lost discussion took place, I won't be a complete jerk and link to this fine post. Just know it exists, and it hurts me.

The Internet

I unfortunately missed last week's episode "Namaste" since I was on vacation, but thanks to ABC.com, I'm all caught up now. A statue free episode! How glorious. Thank you Lost for not being a jerk this week.

However, just because Lost wasn't a jerk, doesn't mean the Internet wasn't. I mean, come on Internet, you're like the best superhero ever, can't you delete all the stuff that I don't care about? You know what I'm talking about here, use your powers for good!

Homer Simpson

Homer Simpson is not amused by this four toed foot obsession either.

Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof, you must think you're so adorable... Did you really think showing me the back of the statue would make me care? Hmm? And, please, did you really show the whole thing, not just the foot? Oh, how you make me giggle.

I do not care!

The Life and Death of Jeremy Bentham

Locke's foot is shown repeatedly and the Internet explodes, "OMG! Locke is sooo the four toed statue."
































I still don't care.
