So, the other night, I went to the movies. Donut and Caboose tagged along because they were on another one of their little play-dates or whatever, so I told them they could get a ride with me if they were quiet in the theater and didn't spend all my money on snacks... because that's my job. They were pretty well-behaved, actually. I was actually surprised that Caboose didn't say a whole lot when I asked him to be quiet. Maybe Church beats him if he doesn't take direction.
Anyway, we saw Land of the Lost. I had seen that TV show version when I was a kid, so I saw it for the sake of nostalgia. Plus, Will Ferrell was in it. It was kickass. The jokes are all really random, so you gotta have an open-minded sense of humor and the ability to laugh at the slightly-dirty jokes in order to enjoy it to the fullest. The main character was totally different from the show, but keep in mind this is Will Ferrell we're talking about. Plus, it's the difference between a low-budget kids' show from back in the day and a modern PG-13 movie from a time where all our humor is derived from sex, drugs, alchohol, and violence. The creepy monster things looked about right, though. The Sleestaks, I think they were called.
Caboose and Donut seemed to like it, except Donut looked a little miffed when they cracked jokes at Will Ferrell's character for liking showtunes from "A Chorus Line". Caboose liked the monkey and the dinosaur. The best part for me was probably the walnut joke. And the part where everyone was drunk was funny, too.
By the way, for those of you who have seen it:
"Matt Lauer can suck it!"
Ha ha ha.

Hey, is THAT where you guys were going? Why didn't you ask me to come? Why didn't you even TELL me? D<
I had absolutely nothing to do, since Sarge was off doing something with Lopez.
Thanks a lot, cockbite.

Hey, those two idiots wouldn't have come along either if they hadn't caught me on the way out and started in on the questions. Besides, that movie was too fun for you. Next time I go see a long, complicated, thought-provoking movie, I'll call you, but when I go see the Hangover, I'm flying solo. (I won't bring Donut even if he asks. That's the last movie we need him to see.)
Twinkies-N-Beer-06:
Unless you had seen the TV show, too. Then I'd feel bad.
As a matter of fact I HAVE seen the TV show. I used to love it as a kid.
Twinkies-N-Beer-06:
Oh.... Damn. Sorry, Simmons.
You should be.
Twinkies-N-Beer-06:
This had better not be what you quit over, Simmons. Jesus. Would it make you happy if I went to see it again with you?
