Everything I Like Causes Cancer

Where we've been convinced to write a new post on Dec. 2. Stay tuned!

Scene: the Blockbuster at Holly Hills


Nice Young Man at The Counter:  Did you find everything you were looking for today?

Me:  Yeah . . . actually, can you tell me if there is a fourth disc to the third season of Weeds?

NYMATC:  Let me look it up . . . no, I'm sorry there isn't.

Me:  Poo.  You know Showtime really has something with that show.  I guess since there aren't any more, I'm going to try this . . . places Disc One, Season One of Californication on the counter.  I guess you could say it's their gateway show.

The NYMATC snickered appreciatively.  It made my whole day.

Ha! Hilarious! I love "Weeds" and I have a feeling "Californication" will be finding its way onto my Netflix queue very soon.

I LOVE "Weeds"!!! I haven't seen Californication but I'm pretty sure it's soft core porn... so... I'm totally down.

Queue it up!

I never got into Weeds, but I loved the pilot episode of Californication. I like anything Duchovny does, though.

I loved the first season of Weeds, but the second season wasn't out yet when I finished, and then I just forgot about it. Thanks for the reminder!

I love that the counter kid got your joke.

Whoooosh.

OK yeah, I'm lame.

@-R-... I think it's funny that you like "weeds" and then completely forgot about season 2.

I watched the whole first season of Californication and was hooked. I love it. It's no holds barred, for sure...

When I worked at Blockbuster, it would have made my WEEK to learn that I'd made someone's day. Next time, tell him.
