Guh. It was fun watching Britney and Christina outslut each other, but I don’t think I have for stomach for this inevitable Disney deflowering.

Hm. I must be ~~growing~~ throwing up.

“It’s like there’s a gap. For the first couple years that you’re making stuff, what you’re making isn’t so good, okay … it’s not that great. It’s really not that great. It’s … it’s trying to be good, it has some ambition to be good, but it’s not quite that good. But your taste, the thing that got you into the game — your taste is still killer.”

Watch this, okay? Especially you creative types. It’s important.

Holy sweet jesus those are unrelentingly appalling. And probably the most effective paranoia propaganda since WWII.

The most enlightening thing about this ad to me is that apparently George Lucas owns the word “Droid.” (There’s a Lucasfilm disclaimer at the bottom of the screen.) Which means anyone buying the new Droid phone is indirectly supporting more animated shitquels. (I debated “fecesquels” but that sounds better than it reads.)

@lowindustrial:

Yes we don’t have proper apostrophes.

Is Lilan supposed to be Jubilee? If so: best costume ever.

Last year’s Halloween. Costume: Sad Prom.

See that brown bag I’m holding? It contains a bottle of Maker’s Mark. Did I finish the bottle? Maybe. Did I end up so blackout drunk that I was sleeping on the ground in Westwood outside a college party, threaten to jump out of a moving car/threaten to punch the driver of the moving car, and nearly alienate my good friend Lilan because I was such an emotional and drunken wreck? Yes.

Which is why this Halloween, I will be Super Grover. Muppets don’t drink.
