I had a poem published in a literary/art journal about nine years ago - and got paid for it! I re-read it recently and it's completely fucking terrible! It's awful. I'm so embarrassed. I can't believe I ever thought I was a poet. Fuckin' A.
I agree that there is a huge difference between the intentional and unintentional commodification of sex and that Anne Hathaway was NOT a wiling participant in this case. But, the cynical part of me also wonders if she truly never considered the risk she was taking in light of the fact that pervert paparazzi would most likely be awaiting and photographing her from all angles - considering it's happened a half dozen times with other female celebrities who chose to go sans underwear? However, I also hate that my question inadvertently also relates to the sexist notion in rape culture: "She deserved it because of what she was (or was not) wearing." Ugh. I'm just going to go back to lurking...
This is only kosher if he and Angie give back each other's blood vial necklaces beforehand. Angie should then give her blood necklace to Brad now, obviously.
I'm down for Thirsty Crow again and an after-party at my place again (walking distance from Thirsty Crow) if ya'll want to. However, you can't be spilling beer on my rug again. ;)
Dudes. He goes to the same trippy yoga classes I take in Hollywood. He looks like he was on his way to stretch and meditate. Glad his leg-warmers match his "shirt". Whew!
I loved how shortly after Riff Raff tweeted the link to this new vid last night, he then tweeted:
"EVERYTHiNG WAS AN EVEN TiE UNTiL WE DROPPED THE MiCHELLE OBAMA ViDEO ... CONGRADULATiONS AND YOUR WELCOME @MichelleObama @BarackObama"
Whew! Thank goodness Riff Raff pulled through for Obama during the final hour! This vid killed the Romney campaign. Good play, Riff Raff. Good play.
I saw Kitty Pryde, Lil Debbie and Riff Raff perform in Los Angeles a few weeks ago. It was actually a really good show! Lil Debbie is an excellent hip-hop performer... and I think Riff Raff only slowly combed his hair through half of his performance. Also, there were only about 100 of his homies bobbing their heads on stage with him. I think he could have fit at least 25 more people on stage with him.
I'm sorry, dudes, but E-cigs seem kind of LAME. Awesome, if they help you kick the smoking habit altogether AND in a timely manner. But I don't know of ANYONE yet who has quit smoking because they transitioned to E-cigs prior. On the contrary, I've seen these same people sometimes sneaking puffs from regular cigarettes as they pretend that they only smoke the "cleaner" E-cigs "now"... And that now has turned into almost a few years.
It seems that the E-cigs simply afford more places to get a nicotine-fix for smokers. And meanwhile, others are confused by the blue-light "embers" and the fact that an "inconsiderate douche" is blowing smoke inside, even if it is only clouds of water vapor. Sorry, but I think I would have more respect for someone who is trying to quit smoking if they used a nicotine patch instead of smoking the E-cig. At least the nicotine patch is discreet, non-invasive in the public sphere, and won't confuse others and make them think you're an asshole for "smoking" inside.
Agreed. It's an excellent film. I showed Gasland o the high school seniors I was teaching a few years ago in East L.A. The admin complained, "How is fracking relevant to East LA students?" Mind you, it was a persuasive writing course where the students were supposed to learn how to take informed positions on controversial topics. Yay, Public Ed! Treat your teachers like shit. Anyway, FUCK FRACKING!
I still haven't seen that movie, and I refuse to ever see it. Just seeing it's posters and long-ass lines into movie theaters all over NYC when I was a student there at the time was bad enough.
Yeah, I agree. That was royally fucked and fully problematic of him to compare incest to gay marriage. The two are incomparable as well as what a "Fuck you!" to the gay civil rights agenda. So uncool, man.
In the 1990's, the cable channel, Bravo, (before splitting off and becoming the excellent IFC channel and remaining the shit-channel that Bravo is today) used to show the 1971 French film, Le Souffle Au Coeur (Murmur of the Heart) all the time. It was my first exposure to how nonchalant the French, in particular, treat the subject of incest. It's actually an excellent film. It was bizarre how incest was kind of normalized in one small scene in this, yes, beautiful film.
Anyways, anyone else remember how Bravo in the '90s used to be an excellent film channel that show-cased all types of world cinema from all eras without any commercial interruptions?
Damn, her grammar is terrible. Now I regret showing 'Mean Girls' to my high school seniors in the English class I taught in East Los Angeles a few years ago. I guess heavy cocaine use throws punctuation out the window! This is an example of why child-stars should still go to college and fucking learn something.
Yay! I can log in again! Anyway, I feel like such a hypocrite. I too, was feeling a little annoyed by the sudden influx of RIP's for Nora Ephron on Twitter yesterday by some whom, sorry, but I questioned whether they really knew who she was prior to her passing. Then I remembered how I fully spammed all my tweeps with RIP's for MCA of the Beastie Boys a few months back. RIP MCA!!
I was there. This show totally ruled. I already bought my tix to see 'em again in January. Too bad it will be at a bigger venue than The Fonda, but M83 fully deserves it. It was seriously an epic sounding show. Very passionate and talented live performers. Fuckin' A!
Yeah, I think we all hope that an underdog will eventually pull through. She was very talented. It's very sad that she was an addict - and with so many vampiric enablers as well. *sigh*
Well said. I logged in for the first time in years only to respond to this douche, but you've beat me to it. And quite eloquently, I might add. ;) BOTH tragedies are sad, indeed.
