You know, I don't normally use Power Rangers as an insult

But I made the mistake of watching the Knight Rider 2000 movie (what, I'm bored, it was 1am when I started, and I thought maybe I dismissed it out of hand twenty years ago), and it's way too Power Rangers for me. Time Force, if you want to be specific, but without the pleasures of morphing, monsters, or Jen yelling at Wes. Yeah. Still not canon.

I made it almost 40 minutes in. I think I deserve a cookie. Or booze. Booze would have made it so much better.

On the up side, the indignities I heap upon KITT pale by comparison.

I think it needs to be bedtime now.

Edit: And now it's an hour later, and not only am I STILL AWAKE for reasons that defy understanding, I keep poking at this dreadful movie. At least if I watch it in ten minute bursts I don't make the...okay, there is no emoticon for the face I keep making.

This is like poking a bruise to see if it still hurts. If I must be such a masochist, why can't it be in the fun kinky way? *does not turn the damn DVD player on again*

I feel hung over

I can't decide if it's the effects of less than 5 hours sleep two nights running (I know some people do fine on that; I do not), or if that movie actually killed brain cells. If it's the latter, I demand compensation commensurate with the amount of fun I would have had losing those brain cells drinking.

75 day streak, w00t!

Not having the surviving braincells for fic, I spent most of my 750 words complaining that I didn't have enough braincells for fic, and then pondering Fallen Knight. It occurs to me that Ali expects KITT to be a lot more self-motivated than Michael ever did, probably because that was a pattern established early on, when Michael was so very "do not want" about his car thinking on its own, and later Michael just accepted it as the way things were supposed to be.

(I spend a lot of time watching episodes and muttering, "KITT, why the hell are you waiting for Michael to tell you what to do, when action is clearly required NOW?" Yes, fine, I know that was usually the Lazy Writer's Way of Increasing Tension, but I'm not Doyalist enough for that to fly.)

In Fallen Knight, KITT, of course, will adjust his behavior to suit expectation, which should prove interesting when {spoiler}.

And now, I have to go to work whether I'm conscious or not. Meh.
