My Zombie Roomy (7/30/10)

Every once and a while I go through a phase where I watch a bunch of stand-up comic videos on youtube and then I think about the idea of becoming a stand-up comic myself.

Me a stand-up comic! You betcha!

Like just now I already came up with another joke. Stand-up comic. Stand-up guy. I could do a whole routine on the boy scouts! (Work in progress.)

Anyway I’ve perhaps illustrated my point with the above ‘joke.’ I am a terrible comedian. Like, really awful. I thought I was bad, but I figured I couldn’t be that bad. So I tried some jokes out on the Zombie and I think he wants to kill me now? Not even like eat my brains – like killing me for practical reasons. He just really hated my act.

This is troublesome.

I wonder if there’s an emoticon to express worry over soon becoming the undead?

My Zombie Roomy (7/7/2010)

I saw on TNT or TBS or one of those that there was a Bruce Lee movie marathon on, so the zombie and I were pretty jazzed about that.

And, such good luck, we turn to the channel and it’s right at the start of Enter the Dragon! I’d say the start is one of the best parts, but all of the parts of that movie are one of the best parts.

Anyway. As we were watching the movie we began to realize – Bruce Lee movies are like hour and a half long reminders of what bad shape we’re in.

Who can climb down a rope with their body at a right angle?! What the hell Bruce Lee!

Oh dude the one with the huge basketball player’s on now.

The Zombie and I were watching The Karate Kid when we started debating: If we were in that movie, which character would we be? Who would be the karate kid, and who would be Mr. Miyagi?

(Played, respectively by, Mr. Awesome, Ralph Macchio and Mr. Short-and-Awesome, Pat Morita.)

I felt like I would be more like Mr. Miyagi, because I feel like I’m smarter than the Zombie. But, that’s sort of an awkward thing to tell your roommate you think you’re smarter than him. Plus, I got the distinct feeling that he felt like he was Mr. Miyagi. (I think he identified with how short he is? I really have no idea.)

That’s when we had this odd moment. We both kind of waved it off like, “ah, who cares.” We did that because we realized, if we’re anybody, we’re Ali Mills (“Ali with an I!”), played by Elisabeth Shue.

(Though to be honest I feel a deep, emotional connection to the karate kid’s mom.)
