Ginger Wednesday

Okay, so I apologize for not having a Ginger yesterday, but I was to jazzed about Degrassi being back. Today I would have talked about Law & Order: SVU, but it was painful to say the least. It was one of those episodes where justice isn’t really served and everybody wins. Crappy. The good news is that Detective Stabler was sans Detective Benson last night, which meant he was paired up with Richard Belzer. Amazing. That guy doesn’t get enough good one-liners.
Anyways, I also have some good news in that I got a fish today. He is just one of those Fighter Fish and he sits at my desk. I asked everyone in my office to name him (to be fair – I will expect them to feed his hungry ass when I am away) but I really wanted to name him Mr. Pants or Konami’s Street Fighter. Street Fighter was Konami, right? Or was it Sega? I don’t know and I don’t care. That’s a topic for a nerd discussion board.
So onto our Ginger. This is one who I have wanted to do for quite a while. Not in the literal sense of course; no amount of paper bags and in-shoe lifts could make me want to have a Bathing Suit Area Dance party with this troll…Aw, that’s unfair. He’s not a troll. If he wasn’t funny I would categorize him in with the likes of Dane Cook and the like, but Seth Green is very funny. Here are reasons why, despite being a painfully obvious Ginger, I like Seth Green:
1. He has one of the largest action figure collections in the world. I am serious, look it up. And not like, weird obscure Manga shit. Like regular GI Joe and Thundercats stuff. The stuff your mom threw out when you hit the big ten-oh. Well, my mom didn’t throw my stuff out, but that’s another story for another day (the story being why I didn’t kiss a boy till I was 17).
2. He was in all 3 Austin Powers movies and he didn’t suck. That says a lot considering the 3rd one was totally raped by Beyonce’s bad acting.
3. He wasn’t getting the parts he wanted in Hollywood, so he made his own show. He paid for everything himself and employed his best friends. That show is Robot Chicken, and it is completely awesome.
4. Weird Al asked him to be in White and Nerdy. Asked. Weird Al doesn’t ask anyone; they come crawling to him.
5. He used to be a child star, but nobody knows that because he actually has a good career now. All child stars that still have a career now, raise your hand…not so fast, Macauly Culkin.
6. He has two super-popular television shows (Robot Chicken and Family Guy) and he still isn’t an asshole. He is probably pulling in so much dough from each of those shows that he owns a swimming pool full of action figures that he dives into a la Scrooge McDuck. Didn’t it always gross you out when Scrooge would go swimming and he would come up from the water and spit a stream of coins into the air. Ew, those are coins, dude! I just sounded like Dane Cook. Forgive’eness, prease!
Anyways, Seth Green has full-on Gingervitis, but he is still pretty cool. I would say he is one of the good ones. Ew, I take that back. There are no good ones.
