13 Nights of Blogoween Day 13: Couple Costumes and Sexy Lobsters Have Ruined Halloween

I wrote this blog last year on November First... I'm not bitter about being single or not wearing sexy costumes... Its just a commentary meant to be taken lightly. 

Alrighty so this isn't really a rant... its just kind of a theory that couples have decided to take every holiday and make it their own and then single people are here like "Okay, we get it. You're happy. Can you leave us alone now? KThanks." And now they've ruined halloween.

Maybe this is just me being old but still not grown up enough to be in a real relationship... but seriously go to a bar on Halloween. There are like 10 Harley Quinns, 6 sexy lobsters, 3 Maleficents, one sexy minotaur and then the rest are all couples. If you find a character you're attracted to like Han Solo, you'll look around and find a Princess Leia right behind him!

And they're always RIGHT by them, you know why?  So they don't run off with a sexy lobster! Its a way to trick a guy into thinking that you're doing something cool, but really you're trying to ward off all the other girls from talking to him because that's right he's yours. You might as well take an iron and brand your name on his forehead!

But on the other hand, if you aren't doing a couples costume things can also go horribly wrong. Freshman year of college I was super hot and super skinny, which btw is totally a lie. I wasn't really that hot or skinny, but compared to me now... I was super hot and skinny. Wow that seems sad... I think my face and hair look better... but I was real cute back then. Anyway... back to the story.

So there was this guy that I was going to go to a party with and I was dressed all hot and he wore a scary mask... so we didn't match very well and yeah it looked awkward for me.

Also the guys that are single at bars are always dressed as something lame. Last year there was an Austin Powers... which would have been a cool costume if it was 1997... but it was far from that. So... yeah no. If you're dressed as Austin Powers or Borat... get updated on your comedy and dress as something better than that.

The one thing that the "grown up" halloweens have improved upon since college halloweens is there are less boner costumes. That really is the grossest thing in the entire world when there's a boner-themed costume. Ack. That's even worse than Austin Powers. If you think a guy with a boner costume is attractive, stop drinking. Just altogether, just give up drinking and get your life together. Unless its a dick in a box costume... that still makes me laugh.

And after saying all this if I ever do manage to be in a relationship on halloween, will I refuse a couple's costume... NO! Lol. I totally understand the necessity of them. I can't have my hypothetical man running away with a sexy lobster or something. I'm pretty sure I can't compete with that... although I'm sure that by dressing as a sexy lobster their trying to distract from the fact that they really have crabs. Lol.

Byeee! Have a fun and safe Halloween.

Scribbles about TV: Jane The Virgin Review!

This I think is a surprise hit, so of corse I needed to watch it for myself to see! It's been getting a lot of critical buzz because it has been reviewed as "one of the best pilots of the season" and I also have been hearing a few critics saying that they don't think it will last because the word "virgin" is in the title... which is stupid. There is nothing wrong with being a virgin and if a show is good, its good and people should watch it... plus this did bring pretty high ratings for The CW so the critics that said that can suck it! Lol. Overall I really liked this show. One thing thats been bothering me a lot about the new Fall shows is that the characters aren't interesting enough. Especially the female characters. I thought that this showed a lot of really strong female characters that were interesting. This had a pretty big cast with A LOT of stuff going on for a pilot and most of the characters were female. That is a powerful thing to see on TV...

Scribbles About TV: Jane The Virgin Finale Review (SPOILERS)

So.... Can we talk about all the twists because there were a lot! I didn't even see all of them coming! Alrighty we start out in typical Jane The Virgin Mode with Jane's choice between Raphael and Michael... I'd be okay with either but I think I'm team Michael. Jane has a weird moment with Raphael and thinks she's better off without him and just having him be the father of her child. She's also starting to have some feelings for Michael again. Then she almost has the baby on the bus and some woman helps her and gets the bus driver to take her to the hospital. Rogellio and Xo are in Vegas and they get drunk and can't remember what happens, but they make it just in time to see Jane deliver a baby boy. I knew it would be a boy! Lets pause on that a little and go to Michael and his ex partner/friend with benefits who comes back says she has a lead on Sin Rostro, gives him an address where the plastic surgeon is and by the time Michael gets there, he's de...

Man Crush Monday: Jimmy Fallon

Jimmy Fallon is one of my favorite talk show hosts... and I pretty much like all the late night talk show hosts... so that is saying a lot. (I haven't actually watched James Cordin yet, but I have a huge crush on him from Into The Woods, so yeah. I also have a crush on Seth Meyer though... And all the comedy central guys... ugh. Lol. and obviously Jimmy Fallon. Lol.) So yeah... this is saying a lot that he is one of my favorites. 1) He genuinely acts like he has the most fun job in the world-  Jimmy Fallon is always really excited about the show. He pretty much does have the most fun job ever, and he actually appreciates it. He was on SNL, and when he left SNL for late night he was excited and proud of his job, and now on The Tonight Show he's very happy. 2) His Ice Cream Flavors are good- This one is completely random... but I feel like having Ben and Jerry's make an ice cream flavor after you is a really big honor and a great responsibility. You can tell a lot about a...
