Wife listening to her husband talk to himself as...
James: Are they going to scream and cry like this every time Oprah shows them something?
James: Why are they crying?
James: That bag looks like a piece of shit. What are those? Slippers?
James: I thought these shoes were custom made. How are they giving them out without knowing their sizes?
James: ♬ We're fat ladies dancing ♬
James: Oh My God.
James: "Oh mothafucka! A cashmere blanket? OH LAWD!"
*he's quiet for 2 mins, I look over and he's asleep*
Kelly: You can't go to sleep
James: I can't watch this, how can they do this for a whole hour?
James: They should all have to wear the sweaters.
James: Gettin' it! Gettin' it! SOLD! Where's the fucking phone. I want that knife. Isn't that what this is? Get Oprah on the phone.
James: Now everyone gets macaroni and cheese. Gifts are degrading now, they got a $2000 watch 10 mins ago.
James: I hope you're writing this down Kelly. Ghirardelli's Brownie Mix.
James: I'm calling my lawyer. Oprah was looking at me when she just said "You're all getting one"
James: All those ladies are like 'Who the fuck is Jay-Z'
James: "Oh muthafucka, that is some good macaroni and cheese."
James: That lady has no idea what Netflix is, she thinks she just won a movie studio. Look at her crying and making prayer hands! It's $8 a month lady.
James: Did Oprah seriously just say 'my favorite workout pants'
James: Is this show live in Chicago? I wonder how many people got rolled for their stuff when they left.
James: Well that was stupid.
Kelly: What was your favorite thing?
James: When it ended.

Can we talk about how there are now adverts on Youtube, and how everyone seems to have accepted this?
I AM NOT OKAY WITH THIS. Even saying the words makes me awash with irritation.
Is there no small section of modern life that companies don’t want to wrest from you so they can inform you about their latest offers? Can I not have a moment where I am not forcibly made aware of an insultingly...

overtonesringing:
I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait to get my hands on some fucking gourds and arrange them in a horn-shaped basket on my dining room table. That shit is going to look so seasonal. I’m about to head up to the attic right now to find that wicker fucker, dust it off, and jam it with an insanely ornate assortment of shellacked vegetables. When my guests come over it’s...

horribly accurate re. unbecoming testiness. I happen to take those two words as markers of pride.
cookiepsychologist:
You clean up well, but look best in good old blue jeans.
You still watch network TV on television.
You dig Popeye.
You have a certain testiness unbecoming to a young person, but which will serve you well when you get old and crotchety.
You enjoy arguing politics, even if the...
