TGI90210F!
Since I'm in a bad mood because I don't feel like blessing my department with a twenty-five minute recap of all the hot research I've been doing in the laboratory this afternoon, I thought I'd cheer myself up by pre-funking with a little 90210. Although I have all the DVDs that are available so far, I only have time for a little clip, so I hit the YouTubes. Sadly, nobody has uploaded any footage of David Silver demonstrating his lyrical flow and subsequently dispelling racial tensions at the West Beverly-Shaw High School homecoming dance, nor is there any footage of Jackie Taylor getting high as a kite and ruining the mother-daughter fashion show. However, there is this priceless clip of Donna's brief stint as a model in Paris, a gig she gets since she fails so miserably at speaking French (because she's dyslexic) and because she eats a strawberry tart with the tantalizing seductiveness of a horse chowing down on an apple. As an added bonus, there is footage of Donna spitting one of my favorite lines of all time, when some pastry shop employee calls her "l'idiot." Donna responds with, "Je suis American, and if you don't like it, then TOO BAD!" I'm seriously going to go to France exclusively so that I can use that line.
And you definitely don't want to miss the hilarious montage of Donna modeling every last prop costume the Bev Niner producers could cull from the lost-and-found box at their local mall's Glamour Shots franchise. Fucking priceless. Happy weekend, everyone.
