Eeee! Guys! Entertainment Weekly this week made me SO HAPPY! Guess what their "MUST WATCH of the Week" is?? That's right, you guessed it - SUPERNATURAL!! Eeeeeeee! I always flip immediately to the "What to Watch" section when I get an EW on a Supernatural week, and check Thursday, so I did that and they weren't there - but then I looked to the left and there were our gorgeous darling Winchesters, filling half the page! YAAAAY! *twirls in circles*

I don't have a scanner, though I'm sure if it isn't online already it will be soon, but here's the text of the blurb:

It might be too much awesome for you, Super fans. Sam and Dean return from a four-week break just in time to... go on vacation. To Hollywood! (Try not to obsess about how ghostbusting leaves room in the budget for leisure travel.) While on a tour, the brothers waltz onto the set of a horror film, and it's a good thing, too, because soon there are spooky deaths! And inside jokes! And Gary Cole as a studio tool with silly script notes! And if Dean as the greatest production assistant in the history of film doesn't get ya, nothing will. B+.

Eeeee! This episode sounds like SO MUCH FUN! And the review is so snarkily positive! YAAAAY WINCHESTERS!!!

The other awesome thing in this week's EW is the new column called "The Glutton," written by a humongous sci-fi geek. This week, he listed a bunch of things that qualify you as a sci-fi geek. The first one? "You're undoubtedly a Dorkus Maximus if you have ever substituted terms like "frak" (Battlestar Galactica) and "frell" (Farscape) for actual down-to-earth curse words. Your intergalactic potty mouth should be immediately rinsed out with soap, or at the very least rinsed out with something manly like... I don't know. What do manly people drink, Jack Daniels?" And I go... uhm, I said frell half an hour ago. *facepalm* HEE. I said frak for the longest time, but now that I'm devouring Farscape, it's turned automatically into frell. And it's not even intentional! It's just a lot more fun and less obscene than actually saying fuck, so it comes out more easily. Heeheehee... I'm gonna get Dorkus Maximus tattooed on my forehead.

In conclusion, I LOVE BEING A GEEK! :D

Another cool piece of mail I got was a letter congratulating me on my selection as a recipient of the Phi Beta Kappa Scholarship Award. Wow! I didn't really know what this meant, so I googled, and got this definition of Phi Beta Kappa: Leading academic honour society in the U.S., which draws its membership from college and university students. The oldest Greek-letter society in the U.S., it was founded in 1776 as a secret literary and philosophical society at the College of William and Mary. It became an honour society in the 19th century. Membership is now based on general scholarship, and new members are usually elected by Phi Beta Kappa faculty.

Huh! How nifty! I'm trying to look around online and see what the "scholarship award" itself means, because it seems to be different from just membership. There's no straightforward definition that I've found, but it seems to be given in different areas of study. So I guess I'd be getting it in Chemistry? Regardless, how cool! :D

eeeeeeeee!

Man, I needed some squee today, so thank you for that. I am hopeful my own copy of EW is sitting in my mailbox waiting for me to come home tonight.

You're welcome! :D I love to see our boys getting some recognition.

And if Dean as the greatest production assistant in the history of film

OMG OMG OMG OMG.

*flails!*

It's needs to be next week RIGHT NOW.

Heeeee. It definitely does! SO excited.

OISNGosdinfhdofinh I WANT MY COPY OF EW. D: Sadly, it is back home the States and I will not get to see the squee for like. A MONTH AND HALF.

I just cannot get over that they are ACTUALLY ON VACATION. IN LA. I bet Dean conned Sam into a threesome with Lindsay Lohan. :D!

Awwww, it's okay baby. It's just a picture! You will get to download next week's ep, yes? Cause that's all that matters! It's gonna be AWESOME! \o/

Yay for EW recognising how awesome our boys are!

And I haven't seen enough Farscape yet to pick up the language, but I have been known to curse in Mandarin, courtesy of Firefly. I consider it a sign of higher learning. *g*

Congratulations on the Scholarship Award (I'm British, so I have no idea what any of it means, but it sounds very impressive!) Well done!

This makes me so happy, cause EW usually ignores our boys. It looks like our campaign strategies are paying off! :D

Heeee. I actually have never cursed in Mandarin, alas! That's so awesome :D

Thank you!

DAMMIT. I am going away THREE HOURS before the episode would be available for d/load!! *cries*

I guess I have it to look forward to when I get back, right? *sigh*

Awwwww, darling! *snuggles you* You'll survive, I promise!

I'm so excited for the new SPN. It's gonna be AWESOME!

I say frell all the time. I am a huge dork. :D

Wheee! *twirls* It's gonna rock the HOUSE! :D

Heehee! So glad I'm not alone :D

Hee! This episode sounds awesome. Vacation to Hollywood? Going on tours? *Snort*

*giggles* I KNOW. Oh, BOYS. ♥

Hi babe!
Ok first YAY for da boys! I love EW...they always put the good stuff in their mag. I recall days of LOTR obsession *sighs*
Second - I have so been meaning to get on here and share your Farscape love more. I am so happy you like/love/are madly passionate for it! It's one of my all time favorite shows. John and Aeryn are so OTP I cannot stand it.
Total geek that I am - I also have a crush on Dargo! You have inspired me to rent it all and love it all over again! Thank you!
I miss this show something awful some days, it was so damn good!
And yes, I use FRELL ALL THE TIME! I drives my mother nuts! She is like "Stop saying that! It's dumb!"
She just doesn't get it! I love that word! :) Hugs, Brit

EW is fun, but they've largely ignored Supernatural thus far. Hopefully this is a sign of better things to come!

Farscape is so much love. Oh John and Aeryn! *squishes them together* Glad to help with the inspiration! :D

I'm going to miss the new episode...frak! (And yes, I say that all the time).

::lol::

Awwww. Will you be able to download it later? (Heehee. Frakkity frak frak! Just rolls off the tongue :D)

OMG, I'm supposed to be doing a poetry reading that night. Why do I volunteer? *flails*

...maybe I can sneak out early. *coffs*

Heehee. Because you're a GOOD PERSON and have appropriate PRIORITIES. *shifty eyes* Youshouldtotallysneakoutearly.

:D

That episode sounds awesome. (and we need some comedic relief).

I used "frak" and "frell" all the time. Like, way more than I use regular curse words. Whatever. I already knew I was a geek. *g*

Congrats on the scholarship award!

I actually think it's odd that another humorous episode is coming so close on the heels of Tall Tales. The funny ones are enjoyable for me, but inevitably are never my favorites. However, I'm sure I'll love it, and we've got some GREAT drama coming up after it! :D

Hee. I definitely use them more than fuck, that's for sure. There's just no need to be that harsh!

Thanks hon!

speaking of the episode, did you know that the director's cuts are already up on the website?

Are they really?? Huh! Thanks for the heads up!
