*Cue #RumbleBatchston*
Watch Tom’s now:
Watch Benedict’s now:
Mixing things up by starting with Benedict
Jamie: I AM HERE AND READY TO DISCUSS
Lorena: YAY
sorry I’m late
Jamie: it’s fine, we didn’t have an appointment or anything lol
Lorena: 🙂
Okay!
I am now on my computer that actually wants to connect to the internet
so
I need to rematch these
Rematch*
sdfjkhg;jkasd;fghk
Also my computer that autocorrects EVERYTHING
Jamie: rewatch?
Lorena: Re watch
Jamie: yeah i have to watch benedicts again
Lorena: okay
Just watched benedict’s
Which is so epic
Jamie: yeah he went for it. good for him. a lot of people were nominated by more than one person but they still only did it once, but he honored every one!
Lots of Whoa and Confusing Feelings
Lorena: okay
Just watched Tom’s
Which is like watching Tom have an orgasm
In slow motion
Jamie: yeah, someone knew what they were doing with that slo mo
Lorena: And let’s keep it real for a second
Tom’s abs are WHOA
You casually forget about it because he’s always in so much leather armor
But WHOA
Jamie: WHOA is right
Lorena: It was kind of like Rob Pattinson’s when I was all, “oh wow, his abs are not painted on anymore”
Except I have feelings for Tom
Speaking of feelings!
I know that you didn’t feel something different in your loins from Benedict’s
but
HOLY CRAP JAMIE
I have felt he was an alien otter
And now I’m like “Sign me up”
Jamie: omg haha
Lorena: Cumberbatch went from Friend Zone to just Zone in 1 ice bucket video
Jamie: yeah i’m still not feeling him. he’s super charming and funny, but he still just doesn’t do it for me
Lorena: I don’t know who I am anymore.
Wet tshirts and a nautical double entendre
Lorena: Let’s compare their wet white tshirts
Tom’s is WHOA
Benedict’s is like “Hello pectoral muscles”
Jamie: i would like to thank the inventor of the white t shirt
Lorena: Yes
So many years of wet tshirt contests being about titties
FINALLY they are put to good use!
God I love Tom
I mean
When Ben’s first came out, I felt things I didn’t think I could
But with the passing of time, I kind of am Meh
The epic has receded
Jamie: it was a brief swell?
Lorena: HA
Your wording is so astute
Jamie: i mean that in nautical terms of course
Lorena: Yes, of course
The ice water and all
But it was…
The wave rose with the tide and then fell back to sea again
And I was left with Tom’s wet shirt, his gleaming blue eyes, and that smile
He was on the shore, waiting
Jamie: i may get there with him one day. i was right on the precipice, but it still didn’t happen
Lorena: It’s difficult to say
Jamie: i enjoyed the part where he “called” tom
Lorena: Yes!
Had Tom truly been there
He would have just gone “ehehehehehehe” for days
Jamie: i can hear it now….
Lorena: Right!
We agree on Nathan Fillion, but disagree on beer
Jamie: and let’s thank nathan fillion for nominating tom
Lorena: Yes, Nathan, thank you!
Jamie: who said he did it ‘for the ladies’
Lorena: Ha! I haven’t seen it
Jamie: and it was appreciated
Lorena: I do adore Fillion
Lorena:
Can we talk about one thing
That I find especially cruel
Jamie: we can talk about many things!
but go on…
Lorena: Benedict showing us his shower
Now as you may know
I write private and random erotica stories when bored
I don’t share with you because that isn’t your scene (respect!)
But I do have one with Tom and me in a shower
And Benedict showing us his shower was TOO MUCH FOR MY SOUL
Of all the private eroticas in all the countries for all the people
He had to go and give them physical evidence?!!!
WHILST NAKED?
Cruel.
Jamie: hey no judgment here lol was it a similar looking shower to the one in your story? because that would just be too much i would imagine
Lorena: IT WAS
Jamie: oh dear
Lorena: Maybe that’s what is bothering me so much
I created that shower for a scene with another man
What is Benedict DOING?
He’s stealing my shower!!!
Jamie: i’m sure he would apologize in a very profuse, charming, British fashion if he knew
Lorena: I bet he would. He’d better do it over a Punk IPA at Brewdog though
Otherwise I will remain unamused
Jamie: ew, IPA is yucky
Lorena: GASP.
I respect you nonetheless (drinks more Loose Cannon IPA)
Jamie: i mean i don’t really drink that much at all, so anything that’s too strong or distinct in some way is usually out for me
Lorena: Spoken like a true stereotypical Brit!!
See! You are more and more Tom’s type than I am ALL THE TIME
Jamie: is that a british thing?
Lorena: He likes brunettes, likes mild beers
Lorena: Loves muppets
You know
Jamie: YES
i do love the muppets
Calling Tom out on his half-assery
Lorena: I do wish to discuss one other item
Their homes.
Can we pause to admire Tom’s garden
Like how adorable is that?!
Jamie: i know. i love gardens like that.
Lorena: With the red flowers I can’t name
And the shrubbery
I will say, what is Benedict even doing living in some nouveau riche condo? It’s so David Tennant’s character’s condo in The Escape Artist.
Jamie: i do have to say that it’s a little lame that tom put his ice in the bucket like 2 seconds before it gets tossed on him. i have to agree with chris evans, that’s not necessarily ice water thomas.
Lorena: I concur
Some rapper in Florida laid it out
You sprayed that from your garden hose? WE KNOW THAT ISN’T COLD
As a Florida native, I concur
Try harder, Thomas William.
TRY. HARDER.
Jamie: it’s for charity man, go all in
Lorena: Right, full bets on the table! This is people’s lives here
Jamie: this whole this has raised a shit ton of money, which is good
i think we emailed about that right?
Lorena: It really has!
It’s like up $20M since we emailed like TWO DAYS AGO
It’s crazy!
I donated
I thanked Tom for the inspiration
Actually, I was not here when this madness began and when I came back people were sending me Tom ice bucket links
Jamie: i still have to make mine. can you specialize it like that?
Lorena: That was my introduction!
Oh! I specialized via twitter
Jamie: oh ok
Lorena: I In Memory to our family friend who died from ALS
On the actual donation
Have you seen Patrick Stewart’s? That’s about how mine went.
Jamie: i haven’t! i’ll have to watch his. kermit the frog’s might be my new favorite,
muppets again! lol
Lorena: Oh man! Kermit’s is really solid
We don’t own a bucket here; also just no I’m not gonna do that whole thing; but we just use the kitchen sink as our bucket when mopping
600sqft #normal
The most amazing gif in all the world
Jamie: so, this gif….
Jamie: as a said when i sent you the first email, “what a magical time to be alive”
Lorena: I wish I could use my hand motions and expression reaction here
Because really
Yes.
YES>
YES!!!!!!!
Jamie: i flailed
and made squeaky noises
Lorena: I might have made a weird grunt
And definitely there was a sharp intake of breath
Jamie: i was at work and it was embarrassing, but i care not
Lorena: No, one cannot care when it’s for charity!
See what I did there?
Jamie: i did indeed 😉
We won’t ask you who is your favorite, because we understand that decision does not need to be made. And in case you needed to see Thor’s contribution, here are Chris Hemsworth and ALL his brothers.
