Tanya’s Puppy is famous!

Thank you, Chris Leavins! And, I am pleased to report, that as of right now the comments thread on the Lola post has degenerated into geeks making poo jokes at each others’ expense. Oh, interwebs. Oh, hey, I saw Julie Andrews today. And look at this vintage movie poster that I got (in a situation [...]

I hate to say it but,

with this news, it has become clear that cupcakes have jumped the shark. (I will keep baking them, though. I was doing it before it was trendy.) Oh, and, mandatory X-Files reference.

What I learned today at the L.A. Times Festival of Books

“Well, Leonard Maltin dropped those ones off in a box.” – The Person in Charge of the Cinematheque Booth Where I Was Volunteering, in response to me asking “where did we get all of these used books that we’re selling?” “All of your children will live on Alpha Centauri. And beyond!” – Ray Bradbury, on [...]

Um, really?

This is the X-files movie poster? Um, that’s fine. I guess. But boring. Gosh. More important, however, is the following question: Fox Mulder, why do you look like Zach Braff in these pictures? I am concerned. At least Scully is rocking sexy long hair and wide-legged-like-Katherine-Hepburn-trousers. Scully never lets me down. Except maybe that one [...]

I don’t know who posted it, but I do have my suspicions. If it’s not who I think it was, [...]

New favourite blog!

Amazingness!

Overheard at the Shitty Cafe

Some context: this is the Cafe where I go to do work and drink shitty coffee. I do not go to this place because it is good – I go because it is close to my house and is not a shitty Starbucks. It got a C rating from the board of health a few [...]

Dear Cute Boys,

Ok, here is the new rule: The new rule is that you are not allowed to make comments that are borderline flirtatious unless you are actually intending to be flirtatious. Comments that fall into this category, just to make things completely clear, include any and all usages of the phrase “piece of your booty.” Because [...]

The internet is really funny this morning.

Australia thinks Los Angeles is a pimply teenager! Robot fabric! Robot fabric! Robot fabric! Where are you? What can I do? Pens on a plane! “In yet another crushing blow to the American democratic experiment, Prom Night was the big winner at the weekend box office.” (Possibly the best opening line to an article about [...]
