Idol Chatter
Two weeks ago a friend was asking us who got voted off. We were all, “Uh.... we don’t remember!” There was a lot of intense thinking (more than there should have been really), then we had the following conversation:
Me: Ace was in the bottom two, right?
Sweety: Yeah! He was!
Me: Ace and… who was the other guy?
Sweety: I don’t remember…
Me: Was it that guy with the big smile and the crazy eyes?
Sweety: No that was earlier. He’s already gone.
Me: Oh… oh! Was it Bucky then?
Sweety: Ohhh Bucky! I think it was him!
Friend: Bucky? Huh, okay.
Imagine our surprise the following week when Bucky waltzed onto the stage along with the other remaining contestants. Oops. We never did figure out who left that week. I could look it up, but where’s the fun in that?
Speaking of Bucky, we caught ourselves up on this week’s offerings last night. All throughout the vote-off show I was trying to figure out what the hell was on Bucky’s shirt. It was a black long-sleeved shirt with some kind of weird print on it. At first glace I thought it was lungs. I thought it was an odd thing to wear. He’s a musician, not a geek like me. Then I got a closer look and thought, “Oh they’re birds!” But they weren’t. At one point they zoomed in on him and I got a really good look at the design on the shirt. WTF? I have no idea. As far as I could tell they were bird bodies with snake heads. Bizarre. Again, too much thought wasted.
