How "common" am I?
and if this takes 2 days to turn up like usual I shall not be happy...
I suppose if Shatner did something that could be appreciated (besides commercials) maybe that would hold some water :-) I mean, when I was a kid, the original Star Trek was great, but now, if I happen on an episode, I have to change channels fairly quickly maybe it's just me
I understood. I just tend to over think things. And it is just that I don't really need to see a pile of poop to appreciate the sparkle of a diamond. Now, seeing a lump of coal, may help me appreciate it more, as they are related. ;-)
Coal is far more complex than a diamond (Superman movie in my thoughts)
But I am a person who will do things simply for the sake of doing them, that I have the experience - no questions asked. This possibly isn't the way you like, but you might have seen a film / films that use this topic?

I can not recall what movie you may be thinking of. I do sometimes go out of my way to have an experience, in it's most basic form (as recently as a few months ago, I tried a new food and liked it, and tried something else, and although I did not like it, I consumed it all anyways - kind of burns it into my head not to do that again, unless circumstances are different ;-)
I do have trouble with things that bore me though (and Shatner bores me ;-) I should probably work on that, but it is sometimes tough to stay awake long enough to work on it
Judging on the amount of kebabs I've had lately I'm not much better... Ugh got to get out of that habit, been at friends a lot and having friends over, we can't be bothered cooking and have ourselves kebabs instead, when the guys know you by name it's an issue.
On the upside I only own one pair of tracksuit bottoms and no trainers...

OK so it didn't take 2 days, but I'm sure I'm on some kind of watch-list... L

Filmation produced some bad stuff (inc He-man I believe). Still I'm glad you watched all of it. It amused me (more than once)

Well, I was unable to watch (and worse yet, listen to) the Rocketman one you posted here. My head was about to explode ;-)

That is the Shatner video to watch. At some point watch it, it's the epitome of his "unique" style.

You realize, of course, that is a Great argument for NOT watching it :-)

Mmm, yes. But all things being relative, you appreciate better things more for knowing the really bad (? or do you... maybe not) L

By "better things" I meant music in general. But yes. L

O_o I don't think I understand British humor...
Reply 10 years ago
There is a bit of subtlety to it. Some underlying innuendo and out the other type of humor, if I understand it correctly ;-)
Reply 10 years ago
I can easily understand that. Or is it my warped sense of humour?

Reply 10 years ago
Yes, it is definitely your warped sense of humour. Reduce to sublight speed, and raise shields!
Reply 10 years ago
Although, you should find Shatner's "singing" style amusing regardless?

Mmmm, yep - definitely up there with the rest of his oeuvre, I might just have to go play me some Shatner. And it's not even the weekend.
