Life partner imitates life
February 7th, 2006
I just received confirmation via my life partner — my Time Warner DVR device — that I’m not just a generic big loser, but I am the biggest loser. Check it out: late last night, I decided I should record Wednesday night’s Grammy Awards in order to stay up on pop culture and catch the Madonna/Gorillaz collaboration.
But, ROADBLOCK!
In addition to reminding me that “Yes, you complete tool, you wanted to tape a show about fat people losing weight, and not even the serial version but a freaking special edition of this craptastic show”… the very title of said show served to inform me that “Hey, Annie, there you have it. You are The Biggest Loser to ever own and operate a DVR.”
Saving grace: the CNN thing in the corner is like a bonus reference to Julie Cooper’s new lodgings on The O.C.!
If you’ll excuse me, I have to go eat ten pounds of turkey bacon and then work out for three hours on an elliptical trainer. NOTE TO BIGGEST LOSER CONTESTANTS: Guess how normal people lose weight? They stop eating ten pounds of turkey bacon. There, I said it. Good luck.
