And this seems like another perfect place to mention that Clueless will be playing tonight in McCarren Park!
NYC monsters, you know you can watch Paul Rudd get mildly creepy with stepsib Alicia Silverstone, for free, in McCarren Park, tonight? Just checking. *Paul Rudd will not, to my knowledge, be personally present.
But will the whole show be Autotuned?
Is that January Jones? I couldn't tell, because she doesn't look like she's smelling a fart.
I upvote your intended upvote for solo beach awesomeness.
I went to the beach this weekend, all by myself, because my friends hate fun. And I had just the best time. And I did not think once about Kim Kardashian, and whether she was getting married, because I don't know who she is. It's almost like the older I get, the less pop culture interests me. Or something. Anyway, moral of the story: great time at the beach by myself.
I have been approached by this man every single time I go out and get down on the dance floor (amirite, ladies?). But he has never, not once, opened by asking me where I got my outfit.
They're immigrants from College.
The snow can get pretty bad. But worse than the snow is the wind. Not everyone is charming and whimsical, there are plenty of people who are anxiety-driven and testy. Not sure which I prefer the least.
Lew Zealand: got it in one.
Broom of the System < Infinite Jest. But like an anti-confluentialist film or a complex flavor of Toblerone, it's not for every palate. It's ok to not like Infinite Jest. (Leaves more for me? Somehow?)
What ABBA song was about tarps? ...Oh.
Oh, necessarily. But Carter has her facial expressions down.
It didn't suck! In fact, it was pretty good! All the actoring was top-notch (this has always been true of these movies). Alan Rickman deserves all his shout-outs--I would also like to mention Maggie Smith and my man Ralph Fiennes (me to my friend after: "I love that he holds his wand backwards just because he's so fucked-up."). My Potter-viewing buddy, who has never read a Potter book, was able to understand the entire thing without asking me to fill in important plot points afterwards (which has not been true for the last 3 movies). And the visual effects--but we knew that going into it. Back-pats for everyone, And here is the part where it becomes sad that I am 29 years old: I would very much like to marry Neville Longbottom. Not Matt Lewis (though if we ever do meet each other, we can play that by ear), the fictional (adolescent!) character played by him in the movie. Courageous, kindhearted, loves plants. My husband, please.
Seconding that HBC did a great job playing Emma Watson in the Gringott's scene!
Supposed to have been a reply. #chagrin
Children's book makes adults go bonkers. #nooffense
SPOILERS!: Boy lives, everybody else mostly dies.
(OT: Did we all read the Rolling Stone piece about Amanda Knox? Ok then.)
I would just like to step in here and say I am proud (!) to be even tangentially part of a community where this conversation can take place as calmly and respectfully as it has. Go monsters!
More like University of Illannoy Urbana-COMPLAIN, amirite? /so late to the BNPG
But, the 5-inch short + deep V-neck tee + cardigan + plimsolls is a look I have seen before. He's probably also wearing a fedora and some aviators, except he's taken them off since he's indoors.
With legs like his, makes me wonder why we *don't* see more dudes in shorts. (I am saying that Donald Glover has very nice legs.)
I disagree on jungle gyms. They were basically the most fun. Falling off and dying on the concrete was how we learned that our actions had consequences.
"Take the word 'nigger'. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the word 'nigger' in and of itself. It's the racist asshole using the word that you ought to be concerned about."
Upvote apologies to jefusan--my broke-ass mouse and repetitive-stress-damaged hand hit the thumbs down instead of up on your comment about "I'm not really sure what to do with that information..." Virtual upvotes!
My other favorite: double-posting. Sorry, internet.
Can we also mention the livery cabs who use the bike lane on Lafayette as a cab stand? Or the "bike lanes" near schools that are functionally pick-up and drop-off lanes? And my personal favorite: cop cars in bike lanes. They should give themselves a ticket.

Hey, don't talk that way about my dad.
Tintin confession time: my mom got me the video of the original cartoon of this from the library, because it had "unicorn" in the title and was I ever pressed for unicorns at the age of 6. Needless to say, we were both disappointed. This experience makes me slightly more inclined to want to see this movie, but probably not til it's on Netflix. And I'm visiting my mom.
I have no sandwich puns, I just wanted to say: Don't Give Up! (Today is 50 weeks without any cigarettes at all, which means that in 2 weeks, it will have been a year. It Gets Better.)
Eric's sweet dance moves Make me glad to be alive Thanks, Vitamin A
"Cool story, fnord."
The Onion did this some time ago. Still topical. I do get that I, an adult, am able to walk greater distances than a 6-year-old child, and that it makes sense to put your heavy baggage on wheels. Seriousgum, I do think that all road/sidewalk users benefit when we are able to imagine what the other guy's needs as opposed to just getting mad at folks who are in our way. And yet my first response to this blog was "lol". When your stroller-riding child is so big that her feet drag on the ground, it just looks funny.
There is nothing about this I don't love to bits. I feel like I always say this, but dancegum is just the best.
I had to use a translator to read this comment, but I also do the love these men. So, we agree (I think).
