Curse you, “Shark Week”!
Why… WHY must you taunt me so, Discovery Channel’s annual “Shark Week” programming?
It’s 2:00 AM.
You have to let me go to bed.
You were right last night – the two hour all-shark Mythbusters special WAS, in fact, quite awesome – and well worth staying up ungodly late to watch. But I cannot, in good conscience, stay up until 4:00 AM AGAIN tonight. No matter how many hours of terrifying footage of Great White sharks breaching out of the water whilst devouring innocent (but probably delicious) seals you put in front of me, I must sleep!
I think Aubrey needs to hide the remotes until next week or else I may be in serious trouble. I’m worried I’ll hit some sort of crazy”Shark Week” rock-bottom soon, where I’m just laying on the floor in my living room, drooling and awkwardly trying to throw myself out of “tonic immobility”.
Bad juju, indeed.
I’m just messin’ with ya “Shark Week”. You’re super-cool. I’ll see you again tomorrow night (bring seals).
I highly suggest reading The Raw Shark Texts by Steven Hall. It’s a masterfully metaphysical melange of Momento, The Matrix, and the magnificently masterful Jaws.
Damn, one more M and I would have broken the world record for alliteration! Probably not, but oh well!
Bah, I used masterful twice… epic fail! The second one should have been “monsterous!” 😛
Myth Busters shark week is great.
