So before I leave work Saturday I get a phone call from home asking if I have two certain movies in stock and can I bring them home.
I have one of them.
I do not have something called The Butterfly Effect.
So I bring home the one they asked for and notice when I get home that they've gone to Blockbuster to rent The Butterfly Effect. For $4.00.
But then I remember that we have The Butterfly Effect TiVo'ed (actually not TiVo'ed, but digitally recorded)
So why doesn't my daughter just watch The Butterfly Effect that we TiVo'ed (not TiVo)?
Why?
Because little Miss Princess wants to watch it in the Living Room and the TiVo (not TiVo) is in the Family Room. And the Family Room is more comfortable, way bigger TV Screen, etc but she prefers the crappier room, the crappier TV, and she also likes spending my $4.00 on rentals.
What's $4.00 you ask?
$4.00 is the amount I send each year to the butterfly relief fund...this year in Africa a butterfly aint gonna be flappin' it's wings.
And it's my daughters fault.
It's like you put a pin right through my heart...::sob::
ReplyDeleteKramer:
ReplyDeleteAren't you supposed to be sitting in the corner thinking about what you did?
KKKramer got the Jesse pardon, so now he is doing the personal work (hide out for awhile amd hope a another celebrity meltdown overshadows yours).
ReplyDeleteI want to know what exactly makes butterflies so endangered. It's not like there is some underground butterfly hunter scene, is there?
ReplyDeleteAren't they just another one of nature's whimps that can't survive on their own? You know, like whales, and bengal tigers?
NoOprah, I dunno. Personally, if the butterflies were expecting $4 from me, I'd send in the four bucks.
ReplyDeleteSo far this year we've heard of stingrays, dolphins and seals attacking humans. It's entirely possible that butterflies will be the next to organize and come after us.
I mean, they've got a species called the Monarch. They must have some sort of superiority complex going on...it's only a matter of time before they try to become the master race.
I don't even know why you bother to have your DVR record every Ashton Kutcher movie.
ReplyDeleteHe has a crush on Ashton, obviously
ReplyDeleteScrew it, I'm gonna start eating them. I mean come on people, they're named after butter! They must be freakin' delicious.
ReplyDeleteButterfly wrapped in bacon?
"Butterfly wrapped in bacon?"
ReplyDeleteSure, why not? Let's eat the f*&K@rs before they attack!
I'm thinking I might bake some into cookies for the holidays...that's okay, right? I promise I won't do anything unethical, like sprinkle them on mashed potatoes.
Lois:
ReplyDeleteThat kind of changes my cookie recipes a little:
1 1/2 cups of milk
1 cup of sugar
1 stick of butterflies...
Butterflies come in sticks?
ReplyDeleteThey do up here. But, then again, we are a little more progressive.
ReplyDeletePOW!
That's just the butterflies that come from concentrate. You don't want those.
ReplyDeleteYou want 100% pure fresh squeezed butterfly, not from concentrate.
With or without pulp?
ReplyDeletewell cousin steve you should know that with the female gender "We want what we want and when we want it"
ReplyDeleteDeal with IT!
Butterflies are beautiful little creatures that bring joy to our lives by their mere fluttering presence....
ReplyDeleteSorry....just took my legally prescribed meds...
And my stupid blog has a stupid "internal error" so I can't write anything stupid....
ReplyDeleteSo I'm trying to think happy thoughts!
Tex
ReplyDeleteYou are confusing gender with Texans. (It happens.)
HA!
ReplyDeleteThinking Happy Thoughts about butterflies fixed my blog.
Let this be a lesson to any of you who are listening. Or reading. Or trying to figure out a way to make Butterfly Stew.
Be kind to butterflies...they fix things.
Mmmmmmm....butterfly stew.
ReplyDelete>>>>you should know that with the female gender "We want what we want and when we want it"<<<<
ReplyDeleteTex is a chick?
Ok all of you butterfly eaters....
ReplyDeleteDon't say you haven't been warned.
well Texan WOMEN get what they want when they want it! I don't know about you women from other parts of the cuntry :)
ReplyDeleteand YES Tex IS a Girl! that is MY Tattoo you see. I think I know Phil's niece.
scuse me...Tex is a chick not a girl!
ReplyDeleteTex, doesn't everyone in Texas come packing? Is that really the kind of place to be demanding?
ReplyDeletejust kidding...Tex.
ReplyDelete::hoping she has a sense of humor and doesn't have a gun::
I'm just a loudmouth Texan. that IS a requirement to live here ya know :)
ReplyDeleteI don't own a gun but that don't mean I can't use one. The thing is if you're loud enough, you don't need a gun.
Now that sounds downright SAD and AWFUL to watch!!!
ReplyDeleteAnunomess,
ReplyDeleteI ain't from Texas, but if I had a gun
There's a guy who wears pink shirts who'd be on the run.
I love being a profound poet.
By the way...since when did you become a music AND movie critic????
Whale, I ahm frum Teksus. Teksuns iz thuh greatest paypul in thuh whole warld.
ReplyDeleteI'll stick with It's a Wonderful Life, thanks very much.
ReplyDeleteIs there any of that butterfly stew left? Very tasty! The wings add a certain...something. Yum.
Blah Blah Blah
ReplyDeleteApparently they've made "The Butterfly Effect 2," without Ashton Kutcher.
Is nothing sacred!
It does have the girl who plays Lois Lane on "Smallville."
Straight to DVD.
That reminds me of a story...
Bemis leave Mr Tex alone!
ReplyDeleteWhy has gender been so confusing on this blog? Perhaps Mr Cake can answer.
ReplyDeleteI'm a CHICK DAMMIT!!!
ReplyDeletewhoa whoa whoa...i believe she was kicked out of that room by you! and her reason for spending MY $4 was that she is against censorship...she wanted the real thing. no crime in that. african butterflies my butt.
ReplyDeleteI? Mr IAINTNOOPRAH kick someone out of one of MY rooms?
ReplyDeleteYou aint my daughter...you're the devil. The devil's daughter!
