People I Love * Is this a sign I should get my third tattoo, and it should be Hunter S. Thompson related? Or just a sign that my friends and family know me well enough to send me things like this:
[Found at SloshPot] I think it's the former, but I really would like another tattoo.
[David Tennant, because I watched The End of Time last night, and I DO NOT WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT, OK?! (Russell T. Davis can't write, and that scene at the bar was UNACCEPTABLE, and David Tennant is a much better actor than the material he is given). Bye, Ten.]
Girly Shit * This is a very ugly shoe: [Found at Shoe Lust] Not much I can add, really.
It has come to my attention that the music industry now wants royalties for those 30-second clips of music you hear in iTunes. That, I think you’ll agree, is bullshit. Seeing as how we’re a solution-oriented blog here at CrunchGear, I want to offer a completely fool-proof way to save the music industry and put an end to the years and years of nonsense we’ve seen since Napster was first released: let’s ban music. That’s right, let’s pass a law that says “the creation or performance of music, in any form, is hereby banned. Any violation of this law will be punishable by death.” Problem solved, let’s all play Hungry Hungry Hippos.
Is there some way we can make CrunchGear in charge of all music decisions? FOREVER? I'd vote for them.
Blog * Oh Sam, you are a true diplomat. Title is from Supernatural.
* And we're BACK! I enjoyed my brief break (and seeing my GLORIOUS friend Miss Laroux, AND the band Thursday), and snow-storms do NOTHING to me, SO SUCK IT, WEATHER!
Holiday!Fail * Um, I think you have to pick ONE: [Found at Flickr]
WTF, INTERNET? * I officially have NO FREAKING CLUE who thought a dragon figure of President Obama would be a clever idea for a gift: [Found at Wonkette] I mean, as someone who likes Obama, I do not want this in my house. It scares me, and I suspect it eats the souls of children as they sleep.
You could buy it for someone who hates Obama, I guess, but do they really WANT a figurine of Obama in dragon form in their home? Wouldn't that be like having a framed picture of the person you hate most hanging over the fireplace?
Also the figurine has no pupils. I think it's a DEMON DRAGON. That you could buy for $7.99. And they have a McCain gargoyle, but even THAT is more frightening than amusing/flattering, and maybe stop making FIGURINES of political figures that FREAK ME RIGHT THE HELL OUT.
I'm just glad they don't have Sarah Palin as a centaur or something. Or a unicorn. I COULDN'T HANDLE THAT RIGHT NOW.
Music
Because I saw them this weekend, and they PLAYED THIS SONG WHICH MADE ME SO HAPPY, and I didn't die near the mosh pit, and the guitarist from Dillinger Escape Plan jumped on the bar and danced around, and Thursday is WIN.
Comics * According to this article, Marvel hates women. Especially powerful women. They are teh evil, and must be destroyed. Unlike all the dudes who are too powerful and must be destroyed because, hey, that's different.
This whole 'are comics sexist?' argument gets on my nerves, because the short answer is Yes, and the long answer is Not anymore, Not really, But....
Also, they're escapist fantasy, and they're fun as hell, and anyway DC women are more fun/badass anyway (Hi, Harley Quinn!)
Daily Hot Guy [David Tennant, AKA, The Doctor, and WHY IS EVERYONE IN THIS UNIVERSE LEAVING? Dear Russell T. Davies: Stop killing characters I love for NO DAMN REASON. And convince David Tennant not to leave. Because I am blaming you for this. It's totally your fault. Mr Tennant, COME BACK!]
Blog * Mr. Lightman is also available for children's birthday parties. Title is from Lie To Me.
* This image, made by Miss Banshee (feel better!) will get me through today: [Made by Miss Banshee] Well, this image, my new boots, arm warmers, and gallons of caffeine.
* And now I want sushi: [Drawn by Erin] Dammit, Erin! I don't have sushi! It's morning, and there's no sushi here! No sushi at all!
Stuff To Live * I like ninjas: [Found at Nerd Approved] Because while you're gushing over how cute these ninja salt and pepper shakers are, the REAL ninjas slip in, slash your throat, steal your food, and totally PWN YOUR SORRY ASS. Ninjas rule.
Fandom * This is the greatest Firefly/Serenity costume ever wrought by the hand of man: [Found by Ge Oh]
Movie!Fail * I'm sorry, but I disagree with this list of the 10 Worst Movies to Open at #1. Because Hancock is not on there, nor is Wild Wild West, both movies that made me want to stab my eyeballs out with a burning hot silver pick. And I just realized that Will Smith is in both those movies, so maybe I should have a word with him too. But I'd put My Big Fat Greek wedding on this list. I don't even think it WAS a number one movie, but I HATE it. AND I WOULD TELL YOU, but it would take too long.
I will agree totally with Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen. Every second was akin to physical torture. And then John Turturro ripped of his pants, and my faith in humanity DIED.
Jackie Earle Haley * He doesn't know about this Green Lantern rumor:
Which means it's not a lie, it is a possibility. Just saying.
Daily Hot Guy (s) [David Tennant and Simon Pegg, because A) They both have super-sexy accents, B) They combine the awesome powers of Star Trek, Doctor Who, and Shaun of the Dead C) THEY ARE GOING TO BE IN A MOVIE TOGETHER D) It's a rainy Saturday and I have a migraine, and that IS a reason.]
TeeVee * Red Dwarf is on Netflix Instant Watch, thus pulling me back from the brink of madness after a day of miserable working. I love Red Dwarf, and Arnold Rimmer in particular (shut up. No, really.)
Blog * So now it can comprehend the aching void in its life. You've doomed it to eternal loneliness. And now the toast sucks. Title is from Futurama.
* I can't tell you why this monkey's expression makes me so very happy... [Drawn by Erin] And honestly I don't care. He is all grinning with his headphones!
* I agree with everything Megan said about District 9. AND her answer to 'What Does Edward Cullen Smell Like?' made me snerk coffee. AND AND she likes the Lostprophets, who are still kind of awesome, although my favorite song remains 'Last Train Home' because I have a weakness for angry broken-heart emo-type songs.
People I Love * Oh, Tobias Funke, I mean, David Cross. Who I also love. This is the best bio ever written. Hands down: [Found at dlisted] I'd hit it. It's David freaking Cross. Just saying. I'll give you a minute to utter your favorite Tobias line.
* Speaking of Arrested Development alumni, this both feeds into my love of making small children cry AND WIll Arnett's erotic baritone voice:
Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret has never been so disturbing. Now I want him to read Good Night, Moon.
Fandom * I try to be pretty open about the inherent weirdness in fandom. It's part of being a fanboy/girl. And most of it is well-intentioned and fun, even the bits that make me raise my eyebrows. I have no problem with 99.9% of what occurs in the fandoms of the universe.
Do any TR readers actually have sex on Fridays? Because shit like this just wrecks me. How do you not have Buster the teddiursa screaming "MOOOOOOOMY" in your head the entire time?
Stuff To Live * I really just want to buy this for Patrick Bateman: [Found at Nerd Approved] A knife mirror? He'd find it darling. He could hack you to death AND make sure his hair was in place. I don't need one. I check my makeup in a REAL knife.
As I say frequently, Iron Man is probably my favorite superhero because he's so fucked up. And I love Robert Downey, Jr. And I loved the first one. And Mickey Rourke looks like the homeless guy who lived down the street from my old apartment and told me frequently that the clowns were donkeys, so I feel fondly towards him. Be honest. You're totally stoked about this movie. Don't lie. It's IRON MAN.
Oh, and remind me to bitch about Entertainment Tonight at some point. They are so terrible.
Daily Hot Guy [David Tennant, who is going to make Masterpiece Theater dangerously erotic]
Writing * This is Armchair/Shotgun, my friend's journal that publishes established and emerging artists/writers. It's going to be incredible. You should submit your stuff. And read them.
It features Fran Kranz, AKA Topher Brink from Dollhouse, who will ALSO be in The Cabin In The Woods, AKA The Best Movie Ever because it is like Joss Whedon plus Evil Dead (admittedly minus Bruce Campbell, but we as a species are not ready for such wonders).
Plus, it's a spoof of Power Rangers. We need more of those.
Sequel!Fail * Oh, for the love of good film: They are making a Hancock sequel. I saw the original, opening weekend, because my friend made me. It was painful. We actually turned to each other and said, 'Please tell me you're not enjoying this.' It made me want to gauge out my eyes. And we're getting ANOTHER of these, but no Arrested Development movie? WHAT? WHO MAKES THESE DECISIONS?!
I need to go hit myself in the head now.
Jackie Earle Haley * Um. [Made by RorschachsChick] File this under 'GIFs I cannot stop watching, nor do I want to. Ever.'
* I have, of course, watched the trailer for A Nightmare On Elm Street hundreds of times once or twice by now, as I'm assuming you have, if you possess a SOUL. Anyway, if you want to see it on the big screen, you should go see Zombieland. Because it's on there. So you'll get Jackie Earle Haley, Freddy Krueger, and ZOMBIES. This really does make up for the Hancock sequel. All is forgiven, Hollywood. No, not really. I'm still PISSED about Shutter Island.
TeeVee * Huzzah, people are watching new shows! And more people are watch Glee than Vampire Diaries! I have FAITH in humanity. For the next ten seconds. And, it's gone.
Geek Want * Sometimes something comes along that is so wonderful and beautiful and perfect that I don't need to say anything: [Found at We Love You So] You can buy it.
Awesome * My GOD:
Why is this man not PRESIDENT OF THE UNIVERSE?
And it's in japanese, which somehow makes it more awesome, if that's even POSSIBLE.
Sorry this was late-ish, the internet killed itself when it saw me reading that velociraptor porn (thank you, internet, for making me type such things), and I had to do a voodoo ritual to bring it back.
Now I need to go sweater shopping. For a Freddy Krueger sweater. - LV
Blog * Oh, Bender. It's always Calculon's fault. Always.
* Sorry for the lack of an update yesterday, but was busy, doing things. Also, it was Father's Day, which doesn't have anything directly to do with me since I'm a girl, but I HAVE a father, and I like him usually, so I had to be present. Also there was delicious food that demanded my eating it.
Depression Session * This is a cute cardboard house in which to live once you have no money for a real house, with lights and electricity and dignity, and of course it would be nice to be in poverty but still fashionable, but what happens when it rains? [Found at IncredibleThings] Yeah, it rains, and you end up sitting in a pile of sodden cardboard that was once your home, wondering at what point your life careened out of control and left you bereft and soaked. I'd say you'd have to worry about robbers, given the lack of security, but really, even the most strung-out druggie isn't going to try their luck in a cardboard house. Silver lining?
Girly Shit * I dislike Megan Fox, because I think she's boring and tacky and untalented, and she has terrible tattoos, and who gets THEIR OWN POETRY TATTOOED ON THEIR BODY but I really, really want these shoes: [Found at TheDailyPump] I would happily live in the cardboard house in order to afford these shoes. Admittedly, the zombie apocalypse would become far more problematic, since I'd be living with no defense system and wearing shoes I couldn't run in, but you know what? Sometimes you have to suffer for fashion. Or Megan Fox could give me a pair, to make up for the fact that I know too much about this woman and her life.
Music * If you are going to get arrested for illegally downloading music, at least let it be good music. At least get fined a fuckload of money for music that is cool and edgy and interesting. And look, I get that music costs money, and that musicians should get paid for their work, and I get annoyed when people illegally download movies (although Be Kind Rewind has a powerful statement about copyright bullshit) and I use iTunes for my music purchases, thank you VERY MUCH, but you know what? This is bullshit. Just ban her from the damn site. Or tell her since she broke the law, you'll monitor her IP address for some period of time. But Music Industry, technology is changing, and you need to get with it and alter your rather archaic attitude towards downloading. Because scary as it is to get charged over a million bucks for a few incredibly awful songs, most people won't stop. They'll just get better at swiping music. Not me. This blog stretches the limits of my technological skills. I try to do something like that, the internet BREAKS. Which the Music Industry might like, actually.
Technology * If God text the Ten Commandments, I might not be an atheist:
Watchmen * This was sent to me via Twitter, and I WANT IT WHY IS THIS NOT MINE?! IT IS A RORSCHACH PILLOW AND IT COMES FROM JAPAN AND RORSCHACH IS A GODDAMN PILLOWCASE I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHY I'M SO INSANE ABOUT THIS BUT I WANT TO SNUGGLE IT. FOREVER. LOOK AT HIS LITTLE WEE SOCKS WITH HOLES IN THEM OMFG I WILL DARN THEM FOR HIM. RORSCHACH PILLOW. OH GOD HOW DO I COME TO CALL YOU MY OWN?!
“When Tim Browne sits down to a bowl of corn flakes in the morning, he slurps up one unusual, and controversial, extra ingredient: his own daughter’s breast milk."
There's a reason, a health reason, but I refuse to get past the fact that a man is ingesting his own child's breast milk. Also, the article uses the word 'slurp.' I no longer am hungry.
Comics * Dear Josh: Your analysis of shit comics makes me laugh, and for that I tip my hat to you, sir. Do not stop, because otherwise the terrorists win. And Blondie becomes a sad, sad testament to the fall of a society and the death of creativity. And it's Monday. I don't NEED that.
Words Of Win * This is exactly what would happen if I drove a tour bus. I once tried to drive to the town next to mine for coffee, and ended up in New York. My sense of direction is either reversed, or set up for a wholly different planet. see more Fail Blog
YouTube Wonders * It's Monday, which means most people are cranky and hostile, so it seemed like a good time to post this link to a girl and her family who I want to yell at and make snarky comments about, because they disgust me with EVERYTHING THEY DO:
HOLY SHIT.
Movies * Johnny Depp must be so pleased with the new Alice photos: [Found Iconocast] He has finally scared me out of finding him attractive. At least for a few minutes. Here's another shot, which terrifies me, and includes Anne Hathaway and Helena Bonham Carter, who also scares me but who I want to be best friends with because she knows everyone and is from another, more interesting plane of existence: And here's an article. Michael Sheen is playing the White Rabbit. HOW WONDERFUL IS THAT GOING TO BE?!
Daily Hot Guy [David Tennant, who is going to be the sexiest Hamlet in the history of Shakespeare, and who reminds me in this picture of his short but pivotal role as Barty Crouch, Jr. in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, which I love mainly because in the scene below he goes from an elegant and collected young gentleman to completely twitchy bugshit insane in about thirty seconds, and that is HOT] OK, there should be a video here, but I couldn't find it on YouTube because I SUCK. And I have to go to work. I'll find it LATER. Maybe. - LV
Asking Someone To Repeat A Phrase You'd Not Only Heard Very Clearly But Were Also Exceedingly Angry About Was Around Defcon II In The Lexicon Of Squabble.
Blog * Title comes from the pen of Terry Pratchett in his wonderful book, Witches Abroad. I wish I lived on Discworld. I'd probably die quickly and messily, but at least it would be interesting.
YouTube Wonders * Once again, this is entirely Julie's fault. How she finds these things in between keeping Earth safe from asteroids and fighting the vampire hordes, I do not know:
I'm also fairly certain I only posted this because it involves bacon, and the lame joy bacon brings into all our lives. Because bacon bits are mana from heaven.
Depression Session * Before money becomes a thing of the past and you are trading your youngest child for a tube of Pringles, here are some meals you can make for under $2.00. They are shockingly tasty-looking. I am intrigued. Also, this way you can keep your children fit and healthy for as long as possible. Perhaps they will be worth TWO tubes of Pringles.
Russell Brand * Here is a video clip of Russell talking about his hair. Ask me how sexy I find him. ASK ME. You don't want to know, probably, but the answer is INDESCRIBABLY. And he's smart as hell, too. Smarter than me, who spends way too much time online yelling about how attractive Mr. Brand is.
Girly Shit * I have a complex and stilted relationship with Urban Outfitters. On one hand, I love some of their stuff, and they used to have these tiny sheep me and my friends collected that we called Lamb-Ram, and I still have a herd of these awesome tiny sheep in a bag somewhere, and I really should go find them, because they are tiny and multi-colored and ADORABLE. On the other hand, Urban Outfitters is overpriced and fairly pretentious and has some truly inexplicable fashion choices (anyone remember the post where I nearly blacked out from rage over the ugliest shoes, ever?) [Found at Jezebel] MC Hammer called. He wants his pants back. And probably that joke. And his big solid-gold mansion. But really, those pants make me weep for the future of fashion. If it comes down to Lady Gaga's no-pants look or these pants, I will go pantsless. And I am violently opposed to exposed unmentionables. That is how much I hate these pants. And there are more ugly things here.
Music * Shakira is one of those cases where I like her as a person (what I know from the media, obviously. I will not pretend to know Shakira personally. I assume that she could secretly eat kittens and flay orphans, although that seems unlikely. But from what I read/hear/see she seems like a lovely individual) much more than I like her music (except for that song 'Objection,' because I had just broken up with a boyfriend when that song came out and it made me feel bad-ass to sing along in my car to that song as I sobbed teenage tears of angst and misery). Shakira is short and curvy and has great hair, and she's sexy without seeming like a tramp, and she went to college despite being disgustingly rich and she can do that hip-thing I can't. Believe me, I've tried. Also I hate her for being able to dance so well, when I can barely walk. But I forgive her, becauseshe's also doing a lot of good things, for charities and children and the world, and unlike Bono I don't want to throttle her for being a pretentious fraud. So yay Shakira. Tell me your hair secrets. And short people rule the world, for always. And here's the video for 'Objection,' because now it's stuck in my head:
Technology * OHMIGODOHMIGODOHMIGOD. THIS: [Found at LikeCool] Turns into THIS: [Found at LikeCool] IT'S A THREE-WHEEL FLYING MOTORCYCLE. And it will be available to people like me. EVERYONE CAN HAVE ONE. I need to learn how to ride a motorcycle of ANY kind, now. Because I need one of these. I'm going to FLY everywhere. Even though I'm afraid of planes. I won't be afraid of this, though, because knowing me I'll never go more than ten feet off the ground. Oh, yes I will. I will be badass on this flying motorcycle, and maybe throw things at the house of Bill O'Reilly and then FLY away. This will be like the Jetsons only BETTER. Bring on the technology!
Daily Hot Guy [David Tennant as the Tenth Doctor, who is apparently leaving us for Masterpiece Theatre, which makes me cry even more, although I would personally find it very sexy to watch him play Hamlet]
Watchmen * This is a very good toy model thing of Silk Spectre II: [Found at WatchmenComicMovie] And it comes with her trenchcoat, to cover up her revealing outfit that upset many respectable vigilantes. But I am not going to lie to you. Until I get a tiny Walter Kovacs with removable mask and sign and tiny purple gloves and a fedora and the tiny green MOVIE!GLOVES that spawned an entire fandom of love, I will not be happy. Also, it should come with a grappling hook, and a wee doggie whose head you can split. And microscopic sugar cubes. And a bottle of Nostalgia. And a wilted rose. THESE ARE NECESSARY. Yet the toy company will not return my many helpful calls. Their loss.
Ads * This is the reason - the ONLY reason - why I threw out ever bottle of my 11-year-old brother's Axe shampoo/body wash: [Found at SociologicalImages] My brother is ELEVEN. ELEVEN. He still watches Spongebob and is just starting to think that maybe, possibly, some girls aren't THAT gross. He finds balls hilarious (OK, I think that's all guys, ever). He has nightmares and stuffed animals. He is a little kid. Ergo, I refuse to have to sit down and explain an incestuous threesome to him. I WILL NOT DO THIS. I HAVE THE LSATS ON MONDAY. I AM STRESSED OUT ALL TO HELL. I should not have to explain this ad. Although I suspect I will have to use it to justify to my mother why we can no longer purchase Axe products for a small boy.
Words of Win * This is from New Jersey: [Found by a loyal reader] Yeah, I offer no explanations for my state. Click it to embiggen it, and read my East Coast shame.
Tattoo Of Win * I cannot remember if I have posted this before. I suspect I have. But I do not care, because tattoos on your toes will always be funny, and I once drew a bunch of smiley-faces on the bottoms of my toes, stuck my foot in my friend's face, and giggling, told her, 'LOOK! THEY'RE HAPPY TO SEE YOU!' I hadn't slept in two days, and had a serious Red Bull problem. Leave me be. These toes are not as happy: [Found at LOLTATZ]
More later. I have to go drive to the LSAT testing center so I can find it on actual testing day and not have a breakdown that ends in the unwise purchase of a flamethrower. - LV
Blog * Unlike most lazy bloggers out there, I intend to post during the holiday weekend. In part because, well, why not? I like blogging. It's what I do while ingesting massive amounts of coffee every morning and howling into the sky over the horrors of being conscious. Basically, expect Fear and Loathing to be on its regular blogging schedule throughout the long weekend.
WTF, INTERNET? * This requires a little explanation, and also may expose me as being somewhat clueless on occasion. It's all Twitter's fault, however. Just keep that in mind. Someone on Twitter asked, one fine day, what a poop sock was. If you know what a poop sock is already, you are probably laughing by now. I did not know, and I had some time on my hands. I Googled it, and clicked Images. This was the Wrong Choice. I have had numerous bad experiences with Google Images, usually by typing in something innocent like 'Rorschach' or 'shoes' and getting hideous pictures of genital piercings on strangers, or, I don't know, clowns. But I keep going back, like the internet masochist I am. Anyway. I typed in 'poop sock.' This is the image I got: Now, it does look sort of like a giant glass penis, but this is in no way the most alarming thing I've found online, not by a longshot. So, I used the equally trusty/traumatizing site Urban Dictionary to discover what a Poop Sock really was, and what the hell this big glass penis thing was. And I found out:
Poop Sock: A normal foot sock which is used to catch feces from World of Warcraft players who can't get up to use the bathroom while in the heat of battle.
That glass penis-shaped thing? A poop sock holder. That's what it is. There was a time before I knew about Poop Socks, and a time after. After is worse. Although, in retrospect, Google Images could have shown me things much, much worse. So maybe I should be grateful. Seriously, internet, What The FUCK?
Animals * I am almost positive I have posted something like this before, but I am too lazy to go look through my archives, and anyway, this NEVER stops scaring me: [Found at UniqueDaily] That is a crab, and it is real, and it is COMING FOR YOUR GROIN. Look at that bastard. They can be three feet in diameter. Three feet. I am five feet tall. In a fair fight, the crab would probably win. You piss one of these things off, you are dead. Right now they're only found on the Indo-Pacific Islands, but for HOW LONG? I mean, one of those things decides it wants to see New York and attaches itself to the side of a boat, you ain't getting it off. Game Over, Man. Oh, an apparently they are edible and delicious. That is irrelevant, when there is a chance you could wake up with one of those things perched on your chest, staring at you with its beady black eyes.
Depression Session * With the economy in the shitter, luxuries like food are becoming harder and harder to justify. At Wired, you can eat free for a year, and probably survive! Most of the links are for England, because everything is better in England. Everything.
Girly Shit * I like a lot of MAC products (makeup and computer, HA) but I will not be buying this Style Warrior shit. [Found at MakeupAndBeautyBlog] Leopard and tiger-skin patterns make me think of my Hot Topic high school years or, paradoxically, a geriatric cougar with lip wrinkles smearing this on before going out to hit on drunk college freshmen.
Food * I love coffee. No, I REALLY love coffee. Coffee is delicious and makes me happy and keeps me from the yawning void of existential despair that I see most mornings, because mornings are evil. I am a huge fan of coffee. Even shitty coffee. In my book I'm writing, coffee plays a prominent supporting role. This may not speak well of my book, but only further proves the magical powers of coffee. I LOVE coffee. All that aside, I am not drinking coffee from beans that have been shat out by an animal. I do not roll that way. And I have eaten weird food in my time, and will most likely. But the coffee beans were POOD OUT of another living creature. That is too much for me. Also, when the coffee is described as 'rich and syrupy,' I start to gag a little. Food Fail.
Comics * I want this book because A) It impressed Cory Doctorow, who is a modern-day techno-wizard, B) It looks gorgeous, and C) The outcome of the campaign made me happy.
Sex * This was almost a WTF, INTERNET?, but the Poop Sock upset me on a much more profound level, so it won out. This is beef jerky underwear, and it is also Bedazzled, which adds an extra layer of ick to the whole endeavor: [Found at Geekologie] I mean, yeah, they're funny, and if you're a die-hard meat-lover they would probably make you very happy for like a week. But I look at them, and I can't help but think that have dried beef that close to your unmentionables is a bit unsanitary. I mean, I get it, meat wrapped in meat is HILARIOUS and CLEVER. Yeah, they're for dudes. If my guy showed up wearing one of those, there would be tears. Not happy tears. Shame tears.
Jackie Earle Haley * Jackie Earle Haley, who is going to win my survey, which is surprising (no offense to Mr. Haley, who you all know I unwholesomely ADORE, but come on, it IS unexpected, right?), is going to be on the TeeVee! I haz excitement! He won't be on until next year, so I'll have to rely on the Watchmen DVD and Shutter Island to tide me over (Shutter Island IS coming out this year, RIGHT?). Anyway, his show is Human Target, and I do not give a shit about the plot or other actors, only that he is small and snarky and I love his mustache.
I was going to post pictures too, but I believe I'll save that for his Hot Guy post of Win, because NOBODY voted for Quinto.
Daily Hot Guy [David Tennant, AKA The Doctor, AKA Barty Crouch Jr, AKA WHY ARE YOU LEAVING US SO SOON, DOCTOR? HAVEN'T WE SUFFERED ENOUGH, YOU CRUEL SEXY SCOT?, rocking the stubble]
Politics * Oh, this is a wonderful idea with absolutely NO CHANCE of negative repercussions: The Texas Senate is going to allow college students to walk around with concealed handguns. Because, as anyone who went to college will tell you, everyone in college is level-headed and clear-thinking, and people NEVER snap due to stress or hormones or because they are secretly bugshit insane. Because, clearly, the way to prevent another Virginia Tech massacre is to give EVERYBODY guns. Guns solve EVERYTHING, especially when you are drunk and stoned and hysterical because you think you're going to fail a major test, or your professor caught you cheating, or your boyfriend/girlfriend is sleeping with your roommate, or your roommate likes to walk around naked and is frightening without clothes. In conclusion, I am staying the HELL away from college students in Texas. - LV
[David Tennant, because I watched The End of Time last night, and I DO NOT WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT, OK?! (Russell T. Davis can't write, and that scene at the bar was UNACCEPTABLE, and David Tennant is a much better actor than the material he is given). Bye, Ten.]
