A Simple Plan

Dear Virginia,
There’s only one way left to make the Oscars less boring: Don’t watch ‘em.
It’s worked for me for years.
Yours,

I fully endorse this tactic, and recommend it to all. ;^p
What if you’re drinking heavily?
That seems to be your method of getting through many an event.
Wait, they still have the Oscars?
Wait, there’s still TV other than PJTV and Fox Soccer Channel?
The Oscars described in one word: autofellatio.
sure it’s an industry patting itself on the back, but the fact is that there was some mighty fine acting talent on display in several movies this year. it may not necessarily make for compelling television, but i don’t begrudge their artistic achievements being recognized by their peers and the public.
Why would anybody watch them? Why are they even televised?
When I began to get some experience in life, I began wondering why we don’t tune in to the annual Accountants’ Oscars, to watch all the book-keepers awarding themselves prizes. Hey! And the Livestock Ranchers’ Yearly Awards. The list just goes on and on.
I guess we are just endlessly fascinated by narcissists & fame whores.
You probably guessed that I never watch the Oscars. :-0
I’ll do you one better, don’t go to movies. The last movie I saw was the star studded “Mars Attacks!”
It’s not so much that the Oscars are boring, as it is that the movies are boring. Last movie I paid to see in the theater was The Dark Knight. Last Oscars I watched all the way through was when LOTR swept. Ann & Jason were meh, but they are film actors, not live entertainers, so what do you expect? Those categories do have different skill sets. I flipped between that show and Holmes/ICA. Hey, it’s still February, there’s still a foot of snow on the ground, and I can’t stand basketball.
