Super Bowl ad from gay dating site rejected by CBS... →

CBS says anti-abortion Super Bowl ads are perfectly OK, but not Gay Dating Site ads.
Wonder what the Discovery Channel has scheduled for next Sunday?
Hear that ladies? Feel free to gamble with your lives, like Tebow’s mom did. Just, you know, don’t decide you like other ladies, because that’s unacceptable.

I AM SO AWESOME!
I’ve watched 11 in the past week, so I’m getting there. I, too, wonder the same thing (girls don’t like DVD marathons?), but then remember that we few understand how awesome an accomplishment this is. It’s praiseworthy.
can we talk about star wars

I love talking about star wars

LETS TALK ABOUT STAR WARS

Star Wars more like BORE WARS…

i’ve never seen star wars. and whenever i mentioned this in a film class and someone was like WHAT YOU’RE A FILM MAJOR WHO HASN’T SEEN STAR...

Hippie.
The next three weeks are going to be busy!
I start my class tomorrow!
The Super Bowl is the following week!
I’m already thinking of ways to stay wasted all Valentine’s Day weekend!
Life is SWEET!
The big list of never agains!
It may not surprise you that “online dating” and “going to a club” top the list. The latter I only had to experience one time to decide that I had had enough. I got invited to a club party at some place on Long Island called “Bianco” by somebody I don’t even know, and it brought back memories of my first (and hopefully last) club experience at Le Royale in...

I decided I’d remind everyone that I have a comments box. Unlike some others I don’t have a fascist policy of not answering questions that I don’t deem “appropriate” or “relevant”, or that might seem “frivolous.” Plus, I referred to a Smiths song in the title of this post, so if nothing else you have to comment to either praise me or to tell me...
“I thought we just kept our mouths shut and went to work this week.”
– Peyton Manning
A very satisfying day of football, capped off with another Favre INT. This is the Super Bowl that looked like it was bound to happen two months ago, and it did.

– “You know, I just want to play for a team that’s awful and/or completely willing to ignore the fact that I’m a pretty terrible baseball player aside from that one catch and those three years where I sucked marginally less because I was on steroids. Oh, I know, a team like the New...

Conan O’Brien, Old Time Baseball. NBC has pulled this from YouTube, like the champs they are, but here it is, in all its amazing hilarity.
Along with the Mr. T adventures, my favorite Conan spot.

“There’s nothing hatred about what we’re doing,” he told the Augusta Chronicle. “I don’t hate anyone of color. But people of white American-born citizens [sic] are in the minority now. Here’s a league for white players to play fundamental basketball, which they like.”
Lewis told the paper he defines “fundamental basketball” as different from the...
Beer and taco night!
A smashing success. I still have to get through Season One of The Wire. Also, I very nearly made a new okcupid profile in a fit of madness, only to remember that it’s bullshit and no good will come from it. That was probably the only bad part, and I got sort of pissed at myself over it (I will never go back on my word). I’ve also decided that, out of spite, I’m going to hold...

In lieu of actually doing my 8th grade Roaring 20’s project I wrote a song describing said “scandal” to the tune of I’m My Own Grandpa. I got an A.
I’m still waiting anxiously for somebody to bring the Credit Mobilier scandal to my television screen.

Make up your damned minds.
You can add this to the list of issues girls have had with me: I’m too quiet, and therefore, not nice. This is news to me, but not unsurprising. I’ve also been told I’m too nice, which means that I am officially a human paradox. SWEET!
No, but seriously I don’t care. I didn’t even consider this person any sort of a prospect or anything, but still. Those who...

– WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? HE THREW FOR 100 YARDS ON 23 PASS ATTEMPTS! THIS IS NOT GOOD! THIS IS NOT EVEN PASSABLE MOST OF THE TIME! THEY WON BECAUSE THEY HAVE A GOOD DEFENSE AND BECAUSE NORV TURNER IS A HORRIBLE PLAYOFF COACH! THIS IS STUPID!

And how are we 6th in the Eastern Conference? What the hell? It felt like we hadn’t won a game in a month.
Congratulations, Norv Turner and Nate Kaeding!
For leading the Jets to the AFC title game for the first time since 1998! And Mark Sanchez, whose impressive 12 of 23 with 1 touchdown, 1 interception and 100 yards showed all the poise of a 10 year veteran! You shut up all those naysayers after all!
Man, I don’t mind the Jets, and a lot of my friends are Jets fans and I’m happy for them, but WFAN is just going to be even more...

I found a ledge on which to put my drink! Yes! And if the show doesn’t start soon, I can also jump off of it.
Everyone here is with someone they love and presumably have sex with. I’m here alone. Half of that statement still applies. (Hint: it’s the second half.)
There are a group of three girls to my left. I should introduce myself, but only to the really cute one. “Not...

One of my biggest regrets the past few years:
Not going to Mardi Gras when I had the chance during spring break of my MA program. GOD DAMN IT.
Sorry. I was just watching a video of it and all that could go through my mind the entire time was my brain saying “FUCK YOU, YOU IDIOT.” Ugh. If anyone needs me I’ll be downstairs throwing a baseball at my dick for the rest of the evening.
