Tonight’s episode of House M.D. brought up two interesting questions, neither of them related to cancer, clots, or the ethical viability of medically killing someone just to take a brain scan and bring them back to life.
These questions are:
1. is it OKAY to like Clem Snide’s version of Christina Aguilera’s vapid song “Beautiful”? Because when House is listening to it on his iPod, I liked it so much, I downloaded it. Is this morally okay?
2. Since I met Stuart, I’ve only found one man truly attractive (this is to be differentiated from “being attracted to one man” since I’m only attracted to Stuart), and that man is Hugh Laurie. The bags under the eyes. The sallow cheeks. The effete outfits on Blackadder. The everything of that man. Is this morally okay?
See? Who said television can’t make you think about deeply important issues?
ethics, what are ethics?

hello! i just found you through various links and thought i’d say hello. i browsed the about you section, and while i related to much of what you wrote, i wanted to say “spot on” in regards to numbers 46 and 85 on your list of 100.
while your life seems slightly more movie-ish than mine, you seem like my kind of gal so i’ll be checking back often.
thanks!
hugh laurie as the prince of england with that pale face makeup is hot
movie-ish? what a boring film.
1. No. That’s reprehensible. I hope that’s the right word to indicate awfulness.
2. Yes. That’s perfectly okay. I do it myself.
I’m with you on the Hugh Laurie and hell, I say like whatever music you wanna like.
Yes, it seems that those monsters in the TV are trying to SUCK the intelligencia IN TO THE VOID. No longer are they content with the mindless masses – they are tempting the rest of us with faux philosopied television. What happened to NO TV?? Must… resist…
*sigh . . .Hugh is the best. Especially when you see hin on a talk show with his British accent. *swoons.
Of course it’s okay…atleast that’s what I’ve been telling myself…
Hugh Laurie is definately sexy – in a way that only a somewhat pompous, cynical Brit can be.
Also, I just finished Devil in the White City – fascinating to a Chicagoan like me! Hope you like it!
