The Oregon Zoo is fun. I've seen "Weird" Al Yankovic perform there several times.

Oregon City is… fine. Canard has a location there and last time I visited I had the steamed hamburgers.

Yes, they are inspired by fellow Portlander Bill Oakley.

Back when that awful teen drama/reality show was on the air, we had fun with which one was the "real" O.C.

Oregon Zoo is fun, we took my little one to the zoo here in Tokyo area (Ueno Zoo) a couple days ago and she loving loved it, so next time I'm home in Portland we're definitely going to Washington Park.

You aren't making GBS threads on the amazing primetime soap dramady "The O.C." right? Just the lovely reality show not even spin off just rip off "Laguna Beach; The Real O.C." right? Because if you are making GBS threads on The O.C. and I had any idea of your physical location and it was within a reasonable driving distance I still wouldn't try and fight you, but I might yell something mean at you.

I missed out on The OC but I'm aware of its cultural impact at the time.

Now to start your Sunday with an incredible earworm

And who can forget this iconic scene, which was even parodied by SNL?

I can’t judge OC-lovers, because I binged The L Word recently (it’s a sapphic right of passage). Trashy drama with lesbians…and it was a Showtime show, so you know what that means!
I would totally let Shane shatter my heart into a million pieces.
I enjoyed it through Season 4. I found Season 5 profoundly mean-spirited and narratively stale and had to put it down.

One time when I was married

I came home and my wife said,

Come here, come here. Sit down.

And she's pointing at the tv and she goes,

Have you seen this show? Watch this guy.

He is the real deal. He ain't no actor.

He is the real deal.

And this character was like neo-Nazi, white supremacist.

Just pure evil.

Rewatching now with the knowledge of what he really sounds like, you do catch the accent breaking occasionally, especially when he raises his voice.

Aiden Gillen will always be Stuart from the original UK version of Queer As Folk to me so seeing him in The Wire or Game of Thrones throws me off. Same with Charlie Hunnam and Sons of Anarchy.

I remember thinking that The OC was dumb when I watched the premiere back in the mid-00s, and then it was one of our COVID binges and it actually kind of cooks? Maybe that just means I'm old.

Android Apocalypse posted:

Yeah, in his Hot Ones interview he talks about overhearing David Simon not wanting to cast any Brits, so he faked an American accent for the audition lol. Whatever works!
