RANDOM THOUGHTS:
It's kind of strange what type of people that you see waiting on the CTA's L-line stations on Saturdays. For instance, just two days ago, for instances, I saw an attractive-looking young woman, possibly in her early 20's, wearing pink-dyed hair like the main female character in "Scott Pilgrim vs. The World" and a stuffed-lion backpack like one that a four year old wears to preschool every day, innocently chasing a pigeon just out of curiosity with a smile on her face. And I could think of was how more adorable could this girl in a woman's body possibly get more adorable?
Why do I bring this up? Because it's just as pointless as this weekly as this "Random Thoughts" column, that's why! Now, let's get this new installment started! The following thoughts were on my mind between Tuesday, May 31st and Monday, June 6th:
- Congratulations to the folks who made "The Hangover: Part II" for creating the greatest shot-for-shot parody of "The Hangover" EVER!
- A commercial for the Shake Weight airing during an episode of "Big Time Rush," one of Nickelodeon's highest rated programs, at the 7 p.m./CT primetime slot has to ran among the strangest advertisement placements of all-time.
-Honestly, "Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall" is just the most perfect Coldplay name for a Coldplay song ever Coldplayed. It's moody, and it has Chris Martin describing his feelings written over it. It's just like how Benedict Cumberbatch is such a perfect name for a British actress.
-When the best parts about the movie trailers are the unintentionally funny moment that a talking gorilla praises the restaurant "TGI: Fridays," you know that the film is gonna suck. I'm looking at YOU, "The Zookeeper!"
- What the..."Community," "Louie" and "Parks and Recreations" nominated for Best Comedy Series? Nick Offerman and Danny Pudi nominated for Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series? John Noble nominated for Best Supporting Actor in a Drama Series? Finally, a respectable TV awards show that actually honors both the popular and underappreciated! Thanks, The Critics Choice Television Awards!

- Not a real big fan of companies using positive reviews from random people on Twitter to sell their product. After all, this is the same social networking site where, if you look hard enough, you can find tweets of people saying that "The Paul Reiser Show" was one of the funniest shows in 2011, or that "Batman and Robin" is a better movie than "The Dark Knight." Granted, some of those tweets might be sarcastic and intended as a joke. But with Twitter, you never really seem to know, do ya?
- Man, "Treme" has been awesome in season two! If fellow HBO show "Game of Thrones" had not been airing right now as well, I might've gone as far as calling it the best currently airing show on TV (that is, until either "Louie" or "Breaking Bad" returns), especially when they're airing episodes that consist of the main characters' happenings around a major holiday. Great writing, wonderful acting, terrific music, and it's gotten to a point where the show has masterfully managed to include and mix in plotlines for every one of the major players. Thank God HBO renewed this for a season three, or else it would've been really depressing to see the show leave the airwaves for good a month from now.
More RTs to come next Monday. Until then, don't you all stop being adorable!
