The sin of sloth

I have never watched “Veronica Mars.” I know, I know. Stop yelling at me. I mean it. Stop. Hey, hey – the fetid fruit is totally uncalled for. Many, many people have already told me, commanded me, implored me to watch, and I just simply have not found the time. This, however, does not mean I have not taken the time to admire and appreciate Kristen Bell. Quite on the contrary, I find her quite nice. But, yesterday, that quire nice got stepped up to epically adorable. Because this is Kristen Bell unable to contain her joy at the fact that a sloth would be at her birthday party. If another event remotely that ridiculously cute, bordering on flat-out insane happens on “Veronica Mars,” I need to run out and but the box set immediately.

O-M-G that was the most adorable human behavior i have EVER witnessed!! *peeing my pants* the way she looked up like a lil kid with her eyes sparkling "she's coming to the party?" HAHAHAHAHAAA! I never knew why ppl are so crazy about her but this definitely gives me a clue :D

Watch her appearances on Craig Ferguson's late-night show (they're all over YouTube). She's hilarious and fabulous. She's been a guest over two dozen times.

I love that Ellen was like "oh yeah here's a sloth" to be funny and then is like "oh shit I broke the guest". This was too funny. Thanks for a good laugh this morning.

Oh my GOD. That was the cutest, most hilarious thing ever! I have tears in my eyes from laughing. I love that she willingly shared that footage with people. KB seems awesome.

And VM is a really fun, smart show, btw.

Good God, I’m confused! Why the hell was she crying on the bed??? Did the sloth get ‘taken out’ in a drive by? What? She was *happy*?!!

Sometimes I think I will *never* understand you Americans… Good grief woman if you must persist with this stupid sloth hysteria of yours, then for God’s sake buck up, knock back a stiff gin, and go and see to your party guests before the damn sloth charms the pants off them leaving you (weeping?) face down in the dirt! (Actually, if we were to make a contest out of it, I would definitely put my money on the sloth!)

I have a charming sloth friend myself. He plays a mean banjo and once dated Elizabeth Taylor. Despite all his many charms, never once has he driven me to tears!

Americans…

PD

Oh man that was positvely awesome. I laughed until I cried.I've always liked her. She's just so great in VM, and now House of Lies(Dorothy, you'd be thrilled, she even dances half naked on the showtime series).

I love reading the interviews with her about her relationship with Dax, they're just such down to earth people. I can't believe he got her a sloth!! That is just hilarious! And cute! I love how emotional she is.

Anyway, who cares about silly weepy actresses from shows I’ve never heard of, or am ever likely to watch… (Erm, sorry to both said weepy actress and her fans and fans of her show…)

Darlings, I blame my rare lapse in manners on the fact that I can hardly contain myself!!! This just in from the ‘gals over on ‘Meet at Gunpoint’...

Unknown Twitter-er:

“I’m on Toronto all! Was a nice flight AND I sat a few rows back from Jaime Murray. A truly charming lady (who would *never* humiliate herself weeping over a bloody sloth!!! –PD) that was happy I said hi :)”

Yeeeeeeehaw! (As you Americans so charmingly put it.) Cat’s out of the bag Kenny, you can stop with the red herrings now! :D :D :D As the poster on MAG says:

“Jaime Murray is in Toronto. Alive or dead HG is back” (!!!!!!!! –PD)

PD

LOL PD! You are hillarious. Glaswegians, sheesh!

"Good God, I’m confused! Why the hell was she crying on the bed???

She's got hair trigger emotion syndrome. Who doesn't IN AMERICA, i ASK?

"Did the sloth get ‘taken out’ in a drive by?"

Dreadful if true. wAAAAH


"What? She was *happy*?!! "

That's about the sum of it, darlin'. Want some fried chicken with your tea? :D

Veronica Mars is right,
Sloths are other worldly.



(Yeah, I saw that twitter thang. HG is back!)

OMG! That was fully the most awesome thing I have ever seen!
Only would it be surpassed by:
Rizzles as canon
Britana kiss
Naked Gillian Anderson in person

Thanks Snarker! Great was to start the day. She is ridiculously cute! Dax must be pretty rad himself. And yo, next time you're sick, reach out to Veronica Mars, give old Anne of Green Gables a rest. ;)

LK said...

Yes, and she's so so so so good in Veronica Mars. There's only 3 seasons, and the third one is optional really. Make the time. You will not be disappointed.

Norma Desmond said...

I adored her before, and now I adore her even more.

Michelle said...

Another reason to watch Veronica Mars is the perpetually adorable Tina Majorino, who, despite her increasing hotness, does not currently appear on your link list to the right. C'mon, Snark! ;)

Lisa said...

Can't believe no one has mentioned KB's role as Uda on the magnificent series Party Down. Uda is the opposite of weepy and adorable, but she's absolutely hilarious and gorgeous! (Jane Lynch was hilarious while she was on Party Down too)

kilik said...

"thing" can get enough of her! lol!
soo cute!

No one is yelling at you, you just have voices in your head. It's so annoying that you always try to predict the reaction of other people to your words and always get wrong.
