Paging Artdork! She'll know exactly what to say.
Cos you've already had one go on them. (HINT: GIF!)
Talking of pancakes, what's the butter stuff you guys put on them? Whipped, is it? That's great. We don't have that. We do have the Cumby, but not the whipped butter.
WE DEMAND A NEW FRIENDLY CHAT!
Oh I see what this is. Training. For the 'real' world.
I just snorted with laughter so badly that my laptop screen is now covered in spittle. THANKS VIDEOGUM. At least I will have a clean screen next week. Oh jesus next week. Let's not think about next week.
In death, Videogum remains what it was in life...
Not for the first time, the time difference ruined my chance of having a comment that anyone will actually read. The traumas of being a UK monster. I'm genuinely saddened to read this news, and I'm in agreement with all of your posts above mine. There are few places online where it feels like your view is valid and respected, even if it's not agreed with - but Videogum is one of them. I came over originally as a refugee from Gawker probably three, four years ago. Their site had changed beyond all recognition and I wanted somewhere that bright, witty people could hang out, and by goodness I found it. I've also laughed very, very hard, and I think I quite possibly speak differently now, because in my head I think I sound as funny as Gabe and Kelly. (In reality I probably sound British) I've made proper friends through this site. If we can keep going in anyway at all, hopefully not reddit because it confuses me but I'll learn if I have to, then we absolutely must. I'll speak to the Queen about it if that's what it takes.
Batten down the hatches cos with Valentine's Day approaching fast, you know there'll be more...
Been trying to think of a Vin(e) joke but 7 minutes is very different to 7 seconds...
I only made it to 18 seconds before having to go and leave my recycling box by the kerb for pick-up tomorrow. So that's a taster of how fun it really is.
I admit that I laughed OL.
Disappearing Comments Friday. I give up.
We WERE. "Do not burst on me".
This story has truly put the Great in Great Britain too, it was one of the lead stories on the main nightly news last night. Ahead of Ukraine, even.
Yeah, you'd like to think - but now it turns out we're giving you this little gem: http://www.mirror.co.uk/tv/tv-news/raunchy-reality-show-sex-box-3035265 DON'T THANK ME
I *am* British, and I intend to ask my colleagues where their flaky puddings are tomorrow. I will let you know how I get on / how long before I am fired.
I like what you did there.
Me too! What's that?! No. A lot of dust in the room, I was definitely NOT crying.
I'm just glad to see the Academy finally recognising those Jackasses.
I got Anne Hathaway in one of those 'Who'd Play You In A Movie Of Your Life?' quizzes the other day, and I'm still angry about it.
This revolution is not going to be easy.
There are two Bat Signals on Videogum for me - One Direction and Kate Middleton.
"then the teleprompter got lost. Then the prompter went up and down". I have worked in live TV for nearly eight years, and in that time, the teleprompter has got lost the sum total of three times. A good operator will follow what you're saying. If you skip stuff, OF COURSE it will "go up and down", because they're making sure they're at where you're at. And a tech conference, with the world's best best best technology, will have a good operator... right? That said, there is an art to reading from autocue. Could it be that this man just refused to rehearse? Ugh, no jokes. Sorry.
You and your lake effect.
When Ranulph Fiennes's fingers fell off, you could understand that it was probably in the pursuit of human betterment (if that's even a word) This girl. Oh goodness.
I cannot wait to see what the next article with the tag 'normal questions' will be!
I haven't stitched for a very long time! (I have bitching practice though! Don't panic!)
(Oh, and I can laugh about it now, but may I recommend never doing that to anyone, ever)
No, no, I appreciate that. But the thinking bit is not a fun bit, when the options are precariously stacked. I wish you well.
Double trouble, those two. (Even if the things the person is saying make total sense, doesn't mean they don't hurt like hell. Mine just disappeared, note under the door, so in a way...)
OK this is timely because I just got sent this email from a charity saying they want "us girls" to sign up for a "stitch and bitch". Ie. you knit and you gossip and you raise money. Am I being hyper-sensitive (clue: yes I am) to find the title of the event a bit... um... irritating?!!

Spencer... I'm sorry. I had a similar thing about 18 months ago, which still hurts. Imma find you a corgi puppy.
