I truly hope they never let Ellen Degeneres host the Oscars again.   She was terrible.   The pizza bit was unfunny and stupid.   Whoever thought she'd make a good Oscar host should be fired.

What didn't you like about her performance?

A picture is worth a thousand words. Post 102 is worth more.

I’m late to the party, but I think this is the best song. Enjoy!

They should just stop that nonsense altogether. Academy Awards that is.

I thought she was great and yes better than Seth. Still no Billy Crystal though.

 the whole thing.  especially the pizza bit.  It didn't make me laugh at all.   I kept saying "ENOUGH ALREADY! LETS GET BACK TO THE SHOW!"

I see. I think Ellen has a love-it-or-hate-it kind of personality, especially wrt the cutesy thing; e.g., the pizza bit.

Do you enjoy her other work?

other problem I had with it was that it delayed an already too long show.  When you add up the whole time it took for the entire pizza thing, it probably adds up to more than a half an hour!

no, I like any of her other work.   I find her stuff boring and unfunny and stupid.

People still watch the Oscars? ;)

I haven't bothered since the year Ray Harryhausen finally got his long overdue award. However, I did watch Naked Gun 33 1/3 over the weekend, the climax of which takes place at the Oscars. Kooky coincidence?

Where were you in '77?

Me too. My wife likes her show, I think...

Knowing DeGeneres soley from the TV commercials she's been in and all that jibberjabber about her being a lesbian, I personally have no real opinion on her one way or the other (I think she has amazing eyes, though).

I like Ellen -- she seems admirably personable, even if I'm not crazy about her jokes -- but I'm not sure she's the right fit for the Oscars.  There's a reason she's a day-time talk host.

The problem is, every host they get these days wants to do their shtick, and the show runs too long as it is. Johnny Carson did crack jokes, but he mostly got on with what he was hired to do. He didn't turn it into a four hour Tonight Show.

So I'm looking for jobs and notice that Rockstar North are advertising for work in their Edinburgh office.

I submit my CV (resume if you are elsewhere) and up pops this application form.

It's a job in Scotland but the form is impossible to fill in unless you are American.

It has pull down menus with American Cities and States in, it's education and employment sections are based on the American system of doing things.

This is the fifth job I've applied for today and each one has had it's own bizarre quirks when it comes to online application.

Anyway I filled in the form with a scathing critique of the weirdo way they run their online employment which is bound to win me friends and get me employed as a floor tile or maybe a projectile in one of their new game things.

When you walk the carpeted floors of GTA tread softly because you step on my face.

dumb question: what does GTA stand for?

How come no more variety of Swedish fish candy? How come no more M&M's Mint variety?

How come some torrent links on MS are no longer available? Why is John Wayne an absolutely shit actor without any redeeming qualities?

Popularity (or lack thereof).

BitTorrent is all about playing the popularity game, even on private trackers. This is why I prefer Usenet.

 Doesn't Usenets cost money every month? How incorrigibly intrusive.

It depends on whether or not your ISP offers Usenet access. If not, then so-called "premium" Usenet access (e.g., usenetserver.com) does cost money.

I see nothing "incorrigibly intrusive" about having to pay for a service from which you derive value.

Usenet is not P2P. Running an NNTP server that supports binaries is absurdly expensive.

... and it's still better than BitTorrent.

You mean you've never killed a hooker and taken the cash from her cold dead hands?

Or set ablaze a group of innocent bystanders?

Or stolen a car, and a couple of minutes later crashed it randomly into oncoming traffic?

Warb, you truly haven't lived.
