I Got a Problem!

Why is it that when people see somebody creepy in horror films or shows, they don't say:
He could be waiting for me out in the alley. I think I will stay in this well lit, crowded room in the safety of my friends, and leave later with a group of people. Better safe than sorry. You know, safety in numbers and all that.
Not once has that thought process been discovered in the media. The person stands up immediately and says they have to go. Guess what the do next
What do they do next, James?
Oh no, you have to guess.
Do they call a taxi and have it come to the extreme front door in a well lit street?
Nope
Do they get immediately into their car which they have cleverly parked next to the entrance?
Getting colder
....They find the nearest dark alley where they have obviously parked their car, fumble with the keys and stop every time they hear a noise. It turns out to be a cat, they laugh and turn back to their car and get killed. That's what happens isn't it?
Of course that's what happens. Apparently it would be ridiculous otherwise.

And another thing. Have any of you seen that episode of Scrubs where some girl collapses and starts hearing and seeing things as a musical?

God I hate musicals

Anyway, what bothers me about that episode the most is the fact that her problem couldn't possibly happen. No duh, right?
But I mean come on. Her doctors are clearly not speaking in rhymes and yet her brain quickly inputs rhyming words. That requires a lot of brainpower! Plus she must have intricate knowledge of medical procedures and terminology, because JD and Turk start singing about what medical problems could be discovered through looking at a stool sample because, naturally:
Everything comes down to poo, from the top of your head to the sole of your shoe
And I know your thinking:
James don't be such an ass, its a sitcom for God sake
Well shut up!

Ha! Bet you thought I'd have a wise-ass comment to throw back at you. But no. Sadly I have nothing because I know better than anyone I am a pedantic little a-hole.

Also I saw this in the supermarket and it made me giggle my 9 year old heart out

Don't ask me why.

  1. Your indecipherable inconsequential ramblings which provide a brief insight into your clearly demented mindset are... mildly amusing. Continue.
