"And the Oscar goes to...'Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus'!"

It's Oscar time! I usually don't go for awards shows, but I always kinda dig the Annual Hollywood Circle Jerk. This year I'm expecting it to be more entertaining than usual since Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin are co-hosting (and given material by some "30 Rock" writers). So why don't we have a good, old fashioned live blog/chat? Post your thoughts, feelings, and fears about the ceremony, winners, losers, and snubs in the comments section.

Now, as much as I dig the Big Show, I have zero interest in gowns, red carpets, and Ryan Seacrests. So in the meantime, I'm going to watch Dumb and Dumber on TBS, try my hand at some newly-downloaded Rock Band Network tracks (Flogging Molly! Stroke 9!), and consume a bacon-wrapped filet mignon. And then pour myself a tumbler of McClelland's Islay in time for kick off.

I know the big question that's on everyone's minds is Who is Micah wearing? Well, my pajama pants are by Nautica, my Ohio State t-shirt is by Nike, and my slippers are by Dearfoams. I feel like the belle of the ball!

During the lulls in conversation here (naw, that'll NEVER happen!), I'll be checking out the live blogs/Tweets by Doug Benson, the A.V. Club, and whoever else interesting and funny that I stumble upon. Know any good ones?

Let the bitchfest commence!
