franklin_bashHowdy y'all!
My name is Bug and I will be your new end-of-the-month WTF Wednesday well-wisher...I'm not sure if that's the official title or not, but I'm willing to pretend it is, if you are. :-P
Let's get our drink on!
Ingredients:
1/3 oz Jose Cuervo® gold tequila
1/3 oz Seagram's® 7 whisky
1/3 oz amaretto almond liqueur

Ingredients:

1/3 oz Seagram's® 7 whisky
1/3 oz amaretto almond liqueur
Instructions:
Curevo first, then Seven, topping off with Amaretto with a lime garnish. Slam the shot, then bite the lime. Yumma yumma! Careful though, these will sneak up on you.
I'll be totally honest, I only picked it for the awesome name. I drink very, very rarely and have no idea if this is actually "yumma yumma" or not. But Windowlicker! How awesome of a name is that?

On to more important things!
When last we checked in with our heroes, Franklin and Bash had just finished wrapping. ...It's still finished. Sadly, The Powers That Be have not decided to suddenly change their minds and film another eight years worth of episodes just because they can. Presumably there was some talk of "lives outside of filming" and "budgets" and "dear heavens have mercy, I miss my family!" But I could be wrong.
Here, have a picture that serves a heavy-handed metaphor for the vacancies in our souls right now:
Feel free to speculate why there's a Buddha sitting behind Breckin's chair. Symbolic of his zen personality? Representative of his upcoming ascension to a higher being?
Also, for those of you who don't
So! How was everyone's past week? Americans, how was your President's Day? Did you do anything exciting? Where is everyone from anyways...? How are we all coping with the fact that we are FINALLY getting season 2...in a matter of months? Which shows are we watching now in a desperate attempt to fill the empty hole in our lives that is F&B? Do you think there's any chance we'll get to see any of the cast holding fat puppies or fluffy kittens? Who do you want to see holding a baby animal?
Go forth! Discuss amongst yourselves! :-D

Date: 2012-02-22 08:43 pm (UTC)I love how happy Breckin was about David Copperfield. Also MPG linked to a picture of Breckin from the nineties and called it his 'favourite' picture, like he has a whole folderfull on his computer that he looks through sometimes to rank Breckin's hair and smile and stunning capacity for beauty. I might be projecting a little bit onto mpg but whatever.
(I always pick cocktails based on the name, both for these posts and for general drinking purposes, I think it's the Best Way. I also think the addition of amaretto to whiskey will probably make EVERYTHING GOOD even if there is tequila involved.)
I can't believe how few episodes they make at a time. And they let Seth Green come to the set for a bit and everything, so it's not like Breckin would be having withdrawal symptoms. They could have just stayed for another few years and made THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE SO MUCH BETTER.
If Breckin Meyer has gone all Daniel Jackson and ascended to a higher plane then that's NOT FAIR and he can come back right now. Daniel - from stargate - ALWAYS came back, that was the best thing about Daniel. And he came back naked and unconscious. Breckin is actually allowed to have ascended if he comes back naked and unconscious.

Date: 2012-02-22 11:20 pm (UTC)Hee! Yeah, I saw the pic MPG linked, but it was one we'd seen before and foolishly I assumed it would be of little interest to the commmunity. My bad. :P
I picked one based on the color one time. It was a super shiny Barbie doll pink and I think it was called A Pink Lady and I have no idea what was in it, but it was most tasty. :)
On a completely unrelated sidenote, I think I got hit on by a banker named Daniel Jackson. He was kind of cute. I'm not sure how interested I am in following up on this and being like, "Hey, were you hitting on me, because you're cute." I think I will most likely not though.
I want Seth Green to be a lawyer that thinks he's a werewolf. This would make me most happy. And maybe Breckin. But more me.

And Jared would think that he's the most awesome lawyer ever and Peter would be jealous and Damien would hate Jared's new friend because he chewed on a table leg or something and Stanton would just think it's a quaint and quirky american thing.

Date: 2012-02-23 02:29 pm (UTC)I used to be a regular at this cocktail bar (and boy doesn't that make me sound like a functioning alcoholic!) where the barman would let us order off the menu, solely based on colour. We'd say, "Gimme something pink!" and he be all, "Cool, I've been working on this thing with..." and basically we'd be the guinea pigs for his new inventions. It was all good until the night of experimentation based around 'green'. I cannot stress enough how much of a bad idea that was - the memories of the morning after still haunt me...!

Date: 2012-02-23 04:11 pm (UTC)I absolutely think you should go out with cute people called Daniel Jackson. From a purely fannish stand point.
I love the idea that Breckin REALLY ENJOYED the period of Seth's life where he pretended to be a werewolf, and has bribed the writers into making that true again, and Seth is all 'OH MY GOD YOUR WEIRD FETISH' and Breckin is all 'I just want to pet you and let you bite me <3333333333'.

Date: 2012-02-23 04:46 pm (UTC)I had to read this a few times before I read it as him being put out, rather than him putting out. Like that was just his instant reaction to jealousy, to just have sex immediately with Breckin Meyer. That's a BRILLIANT reaction to jealousy, don't get me wrong.

Date: 2012-02-23 02:56 pm (UTC)What is it about that picture of those two empty chairs that makes me want to bawl my eyes out?! I know that now the filming is over we're that much closer to Season 2 airing, but there's something not quite right about knowing that they won't be together every day any more. I hope they'll both get visiting priviledges!
I am filling the F&B-shaped hole in my life with a Breckin Meyer-themed film festival ('Breckfest', which was just lovely!) and by secretly watching terrible 'True Life' movies with a very young Breckin in, where he spends a lot of time being kind of perfect with a side line in 'hurt little bunny'.
So far I'm resisting the urge to start a count down to June, I LOVE that Breckin had a fanboy squee over David Copperfield (he's secretly one of us!) and I continue to hold out hope for some kind of baby animals making an appearance in Season 2, if only to find out if I can actually hear fandom exploding with joy!
no subject
Date: 2012-02-23 03:41 pm (UTC)This is VERY RELEVANT TO MY INTERESTS. What movies and where can I find them?
The chairs picture is strangely GUTTING. But I have to admit the first time I saw it my first thought was 'oh, look how close together their chairs are, so sweeeeeet'. Because fandom ate any part of my brain that suggests empty chairs might sometimes be moved.

Date: 2012-02-23 04:08 pm (UTC)I also found a great website here (http://www.locatetv.com/person/breckin-meyer/14905) that tells me exactly when Breckin will be on my television. I have no idea how it works but so far it's tracked down Betrayed (after I bought the damn DVD!), Go, Franklin & Bash and Robot Chicken. I think it might actually be reading my mind somehow... [is a bit freaked]
(And it also works for MPG (http://www.locatetv.com/person/mark-paul-gosselaar/2863)!)

Date: 2012-02-23 04:35 pm (UTC)Oh oh, that's a magical website. Mostly it tells me things are going to be on channels I don't have, but all the same.
There are 19 chances to watch Breckin Meyer on TV in the next two weeks
What a beautiful sentence. Kind of life-affirming.
I've never seen Betrayed! That sounds marvellous with the smiling and then maybe being hurt and then smiling. I know smiling is his AMAZING SKILL but god bless them for a little bit of hurt in the mix.

Date: 2012-02-23 05:07 pm (UTC)I was convinced you'd have seen Betrayed. It's as bad as you'd expect a True Life movie to be, but it was only 98p on Amazon and they delivered it in less than 48 hours - now that's service!

Date: 2012-02-23 04:17 pm (UTC)I feel like if baby animals were on screen the squee would be heard around the world.... I predict many deaths by squee if that were to happen.

Date: 2012-02-26 05:07 am (UTC)as for cocktails, there was this bar opposite the shop I used to work at and they had a cocktail called a french kiss, equal parts vodka and pernod, a dash of blackcurrent and topped up with lemonade... was sweet and lovely, got you merrily buzzed after 3 or so, and because they were a promotional cocktail only £2 each... great for the weekend before payday :) alas the bar changed hands and the french kiss was no more...

Date: 2012-02-26 07:51 pm (UTC)It's not at all wrong. It's on the other side, the side of YES. Breckin is so adorable, why isn't there more randomly dressing him up in things and letting mpg smile at him? That would be a great thing they could do. They could make it a calendar.
