#13 for NaBloPoMo

So, Liz and I watched Ninja Warrior last night. It was much fun, though I was sorely disappointed that Aniki and Mr. Delivery Man were not there. Nor were Mr. Octopus, Mr. Sculptor or Mr. Hang glider, Yes, all have names, but that's what Liz and I call them. Anyway, it was much fun despite being sick and not being able to flail properly. Sadly I had to go to bed before it was done, but there were a few golden moments.

Firstly, there was Mr. Fake Yazuka. He was all dressed up in a nice suit and I just knew what was going to happen next. When the air horn thing sounded him to start he tried to remove the suit. This was bad because he had issues getting out of his pants and then getting his shoes back on. He didn't make it past the first obstacle. It was pathetic, but funny at the same time.

Secondly, there was the head of the Renaissance Comedy Troupe who was drinking wine before he attempted the course. I was amazed he didn't fall as soon as he tried to go. He failed on the first obstacle.

Thirdly, there was the guy - Liz and I can't really remember who he was - that attempted the course in white short shorts. Now, keep in mind that there are maybe 2 obstacles in the entire four stage course that won't end up with the person soaked in water. The vast majority of the obstacles are over water. White short shorts + water = I hope he had a towel nearby.

There was one major disappointment. Of my two favorite competitors only one competed. Aniki wasn't there for some reason. Aniki also disappointed me by not going to the Olympics for the trampoline. Anyway, him not competing is not the disappointment. My other favorite competitor is Yamamoto Shingo. He's been in every single Ninja Warrior and he's much fun. However, he failed on the first stage on an obstacle all the other All Stars had no problem with. It was highly disappointing and I was very sad.

Okay, I'm done rambling about Ninja Warrior now. ^_^
