St. Patrick’s Day Falls During National Introverts Week?πŸ€πŸΊπŸ₯³

Looks like I'm staying home today then
;-)
I might have to watch a few REMORANDOM You Tubes today, since I don't have a Guinness Book of Records on my bookshelf:-)
I do have an old 2012 Australian & World Records to flick through though.
I'm sure a lot of those records have been broken since 2012, but I see that Australia still has a Rabbitoh problem with even more records being broken there since;-)
31: Guinness World Records,
Rabbit Proof Fence,
 Fraktur, The Macarena
Alex Johnston has become
the greatest try-scorer in
Australian rugby league history
with a double against the Roosters
I like how that record was broken on Friday the 13th of March and that the 31st Prime minster of Australia was there to see it ... and his team still lost ... and that it was episode 31 of REMORANDOM that featured Records and Rabbitohs:-)
I wonder if anyone has thought of building the Big Upside-down Pineapple?-)
Happy St. Patrick's Day and if you are an introvert, happy National Introverts Week, as well:-)
I think that I'm more of an ambivert than an introvert now I think about it, but it looks like it will be 'Dinner for One' again for me tonight;-)

After Watching The Oscars Why Not Live It Up?πŸŽ¬πŸ€‘πŸ₯‚

I had a couple of
beers while watching The Oscars, and while I was pretty sure I was under the legal limit to drive I decided to make sure by seeing another film that was playing in the cinema complex and saw that there was a film called 'Live It Up' about the Australian band 'Mental as Anything', so I did the sane thing and bought a ticket to the 2 pm session.
I had not heard of this movie before looking up the session times for the cinema that day, but I'm glad that I stayed to watch it.
I never got to see 'Mental as Anything' play live and didn't know that much about them really, only that Greedy Smith died of a heart attack back in 2019 -
Two News Stories in One and a Bunch of Synchromystic Metaphors for the Future?
My original plan was to buy a pizza from the Crust pizza shop across the road from the cinema and eat it before going in to watch the movie, but I ended up only having 15 minutes to 2 pm to do that before the movie started, so I ordered a pizza from the cinema, so I could eat it in the cinema.
I was told the pizzas come from the Domino's pizza shop from up the road, which is my least favourite pizza of all the big pizza chains to choose from in Brisbane ... but I hadn't had any lunch, so it was a Hobson's choice really.
At least there was no annoying "cheese pull" to battle with while eating my simple Domino's Margherita pizza:-)
I had to wonder if this Cheer cheese commercial below which I saw during The Oscars screening influenced my decision to buy a pizza for lunch with all of the 
"cheese pulling" going on in that 
ad?-)
Or whether it was seeing
Claudia Chan Shaw in an MLC commercial briefly, dressed as a fortune teller and me remembering the 
"cheese pull" REMORANDOM You Tube I had watched before going to see The Oscars on the big screen?-)
If I thought the ads were bad during the Channel 7 Oscars live telecast being beamed onto the cinema screen, what's it going to be like when You Tube are telecasting The Oscars in 2029?
If I see that
Walter Goggins guy pop up one more time when I'm watching a You Tube, I'm gonna ... 😑

Watching The Oscars Live from Australia on Monday Monday Morning?πŸŒŽπŸŽ¬πŸ‘πŸŒ

I watched
The Oscars this Australian Monday morning live on the cinema screen in New Farm, which was kind of surreal ... as always watching from Australia and being a day ahead of LA.
Most of the east coast of Asia is in the same boat, as Australia is pretty much right under Asia.
Or you could say Down-under Asia:-) 
Monday morning turned out to be not what I was hoping for in the awards that mattered to me. 
I was hoping for an Ethan Hawke and Rose Byrne win in the best actor categories, but that wasn't to be.
I actually had to travel to
New Farm to see 'Blue Moon', as none of my regular cinemas were screening the movie.
And I had to rent 'If I Had Legs I'd Kick You' from Amazon Prime, as no cinema in Brisbane was playing the movie.
1967 is the year the 
Sharks 
started in the NRL
Brendan Cowell and Rose Byrne
(in the Sharks jersey
2 Degrees of Separation from Rose Byrne?
If I Had Legs I'd Kick You ... is About What Exactly?πŸ¦΅πŸ¦ΏπŸ—⚽
Ironically, if I had have gone to New Farm (Palace cinema) instead of my local cinema to see 'Wuthering Heights' I might have seen Margot Robbie in the flesh ... Doh!
Oh, yeah ... and Jacob Elordi ... whatever;-)
And I was hoping for Rose to get The Oscar, instead of just being The Bridesmaid on the night:-)
Rose Byrne plays Helen
 in this movie
At least TimothΓ©e was a Bridesmaid too on the night;-)
It was kind of ironic knowing that March 15th was 'World Speech Day' and a lot of Oscar winners were cut off from making a winning speech:-)
