Scary story here about a woman whose health insurance was pulled after her insurance company saw highly friends locked pictures of her on facebook, smiling and looking happy at her birthday party -proving that she no longer had depression.

Oh yeah. That's just full of win right there.

Did you know that Oprah is going off air in 2011?!

This show has been going my whole life, and then some - I fear the universe might collapse without it.

I am so fucking fancy.

I am having ~fresh coriander~ on my chickpea curry.

Yeah bitches. And half a glass of the orange juice with PULP too (implying some real oranges might have been used in some part of the production process).

Oh yeahhhh.

*Actually I am quite uncomfortable about the use of "bitches". I am using it in a Tom Gleeson way though.

Cruelty Free Festival - pre-post! [Nov. 1st, 2009|09:08 pm]
[Tags|, ]

I had a really lovely day at Cruelty Free Fest today. I spoke stumbled over some words to Diana Ah Naid even! Whee! (I don't like the new spelling!)

I am mildly sunstrokey and thus tired so I am off to bed. I assume sunstroke is not like concussion and you are allowed to sleep if it is making you tired. If not, someone give me a call and wake me up, otherwise someone will need to come and feed Fizgig.

The Beatles never broke up [Oct. 29th, 2009|09:34 pm]
[Tags|, ]
[Current Music |Beatles - "Everyday Chemistry"]

I am currently listening to a Beatles album that was recorded in an alternate universe where the band did not break up. You can find the fascinating details, and free download here.

Interestingly, interdimensional travel shares similarities with the Back To The Future car. Whaddaya know?

I think perhaps the way things worked out in out dimension is best from the music side of things, since apparently the Beatles music began to consist primarily of them sampling their previous work, and mashing it up with 90's style beats in an unpleasant manner. Not so bad as music, but certainly not great as Beatles music.

Grapefruit [Oct. 4th, 2009|10:08 am]
[Tags|]

Despite ordering them for the co-op for some time, I am only just trying my first grapefruit now. ERGH ERGH, WHY WOULD ANYONE GROW THESE?! It is completely revolting ergh :( Fizgig doesn't want any either.

I knew people poured sugar on them because grapefruit are supposed to not be so great, but people do that to rockmelon too, and rockmelon is lovely without sugar (and not so great with). After the discovery of this disgustingness I tried adding sugar to the grapefruit, it did not help.

I AM A HORRIBLE PERSON WHY WOULD I INFLICT THIS ON PEOPLE!?

D:

This also makes me very sad that the only food I can pronounce in Japanese is grapefruit, and thus if I was mysteriously trapped there that might be all I could eat D:

Actual quote, from one of the two (out of three, not including myself) members of the group who didn't even bother to respond to my email from over a month ago until the other day. Emphasis mine:

"Hi everyone,
We cant all make it this friday 9/10, but think we might be running out of time. I can do wednesday round 12ish, if that helps, let me know.......

Alternatively, we could meet up this Friday (those who can) and go through ideas and email others, and take it from there, what do you all think????"

Oh, how about, FUCK YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Come awwwwnnnnnnn! [Oct. 1st, 2009|07:28 pm]

The other day I was feeling much like a fundamentalist christian because EVERYTHING was about sex; all the songs I heard were about sex, all the ads I saw were about sex - Now, this was ridiculous, because Paddlepop ads are probably not in the least bit sexual (however, I still hate this new big-jawed paddlepop lion - wtf is that?). HOWEVER, tell me if I'm wrong, but there are posters up for NCIS Los Angeles with this image, and I find them suggestively homoerotic:



They're so totally standing over a bed with a naked man on it there, you know it. And the gun is far more teasing and phallic suggestive than threatening.

To add to this, the tv promos have the same image, sans gun, with white guy sliding over gradually behind LL cool J. COME ON GUYS. The actor that played Keith in Six Feet Under was in last night's episode, which wasn't dissuading me any.

Then on the preview for next week's show, White guy is questioning LL about his knowledge of this Navy seal. All smiles:
LL: "Yeah I know him"
WG: "Do you have a history?"
LL: "We didn't date, if that's what you're asking."
WG: "Good, because I didn't think you were cheating on me"

COME ONNNNNNNNN. This is not just my imagination!

Which brings me to the point - why don't actors do in-character porn? Even just occasionally. I don't own any porn, don't watch porn, have no particular porn interest, but I would pay SO MUCH MONEY FOR THAT. Sadly it's too late for some TNG porn, but there are still plenty of other opportunities!
