Like old milk....
I fear I may have just become spoiled. I won't say anymore, but do yourselves a favor and avoid ew.com. Le sigh. If I was, in fact, actually spoiled, I suppose it was my own fault that I couldn't resist reading about the Emmy noms on my lunch break. And the Emmy noms blow. No LOST? WTF man? Anyhow, who knows, I'm still in a bit of shock.
Which I guess means I can talk more about tonight's finale of World Series of Pop Culture. Twisted Misters (and apparently I am in the minority in liking them, but I like my nerds with a bit of arrogance, especially nerds who dress like Angus Young) will be up against either Wokka Wokka (love) or Almost Perfect Strangers 2.0 (hate).
Let me break it down for you. I loved APS 2.0 the first night they were on. They cleaned house and pulled some great answers out of thin air. But then, THEN, on their next apperance, one dude totally choked on movie taglines, and then the other dude choked on song lyrics from 2006. And the girl on the team? Her bedroom is made up to look like Andy's from Toy Story. And that makes my stomach all wibbly every time I think about that. So I am not a fan.
Perhaps I am in the wrong here, but I tend to think that if you are, once again, a contestant on the WSOPC, then you can't simply know all of the characters in some random 80s movies, but you also must know lyrics to songs that have been popular in the past, oh I don't know, 12 months. Like "Sexyback." Like "Promiscuous." Like "Ain't no Other Man." The list goes on and on, and the contestants literally stood there giving new meaning to the term "slack-jawed." I hope they get their asses handed to them by the bald guy on Wokka Wokka.
So, I'll be rooting for Twisted Misters tonight, and there are only approximately 32 more hours until I know if what I read was or was not the truth regarding HP7.
As I've learned this week, between furiously text messaging my would-be teammate a gazillion times every time a contestant choked on the WSOPC, to today's ew.com developments, an addiction to pop culture can be very harmful to one's mental health.

I was so angry when neither contestant knew ANY of the 2006 songs, and I got every single one of them. I figured you would be too.
