In Which We Talk A Lot About Breasts. Not Just Christina Hendricks' Breasts. But Those Too.

By Joanna Robinson | Posted Under Pajiba Love | Comments (33)

Happy February my little love bugs!! Today kicks off Black History Month. Let’s celebrate by mocking the idiocy of some racists on the internet. (When Is White History Month)

We’re also only a few days out from the Superbowl. Word on the well-informed street is that this is going to be a frustrating/boring match up. So, let’s focus on what really matters. SNACK FOOD. Try topping this sh*t. I dare you. (Westword)

And, my pets, if you’re thinking of sending me something for Valentine’s Day (I know how fond you are of showering me with gifts), please don’t select this technological monstrosity. It looks like Elle Woods vomited all over the Best Buy. (Neatorama)

Speaking of Valentine’s plans, I hope all you Austintonianites are headed to the Alamo Drafthouse to check out their screening of The Princess Bride. If you’re not, drool with me for a moment over the adorable menu. (Boing Boing)

This one is for the hardcore “Harry Potter” nerds. The rest of you can move along. (Unreality)

(Self-serving link alert!) The lovely Nathaniel R had me back to talk about SAG fashion. Mostly I drooled over Viola Davis. Wouldn’t you? (The Film Experience)

Speaking of goddesses divine, here are a few jaw-dropping images of Christina Hendricks. Girl, get outta my dreams and back on my TV. (Celebitchy)

And, well, while we’re on the subject of magnificent racks, I’ll let Dustin’s headline sell you on this “Community” link. “The Future Of Annie’s Boobs Is In Your Hands.” (Warming Glow)

Because, come on, who DOESN’T enjoy breasts? Gay dudes? Maybe. The point is, there’s a shortage of perfect breasts in this world, so the fact that the Breast Cancer Awareness Juggernaut “Komen For The Cure” pulled their funding from Planned Parenthood is a goddamn pitiful travesty. (ABL)

Not that this is Komen’s first infraction. They’ve reportedly spent thousands of donor dollars hunting down other organization who use the phrase “For The Cure.” How very charitable of them. May I suggest an alternate way to raise funds for Breast Cancer, America? (ACS)

Because, listen, it’s very important that you and I and everyone we know recognize that “Downton Abbey“‘s O’Brien has some glorious mammaries. Here’s a cute photo essay of her and her fellow castmates out of costume. Daisy and William! Carson in biking spandex! (Paper)

Speaking of behind the scenes photos, I got a huge kick out of Ana Gastayer’s oddball campaign to get her Twitter account verified. I dunno, it’s goofy and sweet and I adored her on “SNL.” (Uproxx)

One of my favorite sites, Photoshop Disasters, caught a J. Crew gaffe that went to print. MAKES YOU WONDER. (PSD)

And, for the Design Nerds (*cough*jM*cough*), here are some UBER nerdy font shirts. I love them. (The Social Dept.)

Finally, some brave souls broke the water skiing record. Here’s the crazy photographic proof. (BioTV)

Speaking of athletic feats, check out the tallest high school basketball player in action. The 7’5” Mamadou Ndiaye plays in California which, um, I’m sure is where he was born and raised.

Finally, the lovely figgy sent this to me and though she has horrible taste in general and is wrong about everything always, this is amazing. Enjoy!

As a melodica player, I must apologize for that awful performance in the Jurassic Park video. The instrument does not typically sound like someone is curbstomping a flock of geese in the chest.

Actually, this Super Bowl is gonna be a shoot-out; two poor defenses, two huge passing offenses. Expect big points, acrobatics, lots of yelling. It's gonna be epic.

Sorry, carry on.

Posted by: ChristianH at February 2, 2012 1:15 PM

Isis and Pharaoh for the win!

But my, Thomas and Dr. Clarkson do deliciously improve when they're out of character.

Call me, Dr. Clarkson!

Posted by: PaddyDog at February 2, 2012 1:22 PM

Eh, I wouldn't bank on a shootout. Both teams know each other very well, the last game in wk 9 was 24-20, and both defenses are about as healthy as they can be. The game will most probably be close however.

Posted by: Mrcreosote at February 2, 2012 1:23 PM

Ooooh, that Harry Potter link was supercool. I thought blowing my mindhole was Cindy's job.

I wrote the Komen Foundation an email this morning which ended with the words, "shame on you!".

I can't even tell you how happy that Downton link made me. Although, the only man that is more attractive to me out-of-costume is Thomas . There is a man who went to specsavers.

Posted by: Leelee at February 2, 2012 1:35 PM

Joining the party thanking you for the Downton link. Although I can still only think of Thomas as "Son of Mine" from that creepy Dr. Who twofer when the Doctor is hiding out as a human.

Oh, I was so excited for something new. I'm gonna go ahead and pretend that the fact that I saw this image months ago doesn't make me a sad person. It just makes me enthusiastic about things I love. Like Harry Potter and cats. And knitting patterns.

Posted by: Holly at February 2, 2012 1:39 PM

Captain Tuttle, you're thinking of the wronk dark-haired, blue-eyed evil guy here. Harry Lloyd (Viserys from Game of Thrones) is the one who played "Son of Mine". I confused both of them with the dark-haired, blue-eyed evil guy from Tess of the D'Urbervilles.

And count me in on the Downton Abbey Happy Link train. Bates with a baby! Aw!

‪And I'm not a fan of apparent boning. I don't think it can ever look classy.‬

I know our relationship isn't always perfect, Joanna, but I love you more now than ever before, even more than on our trip to Panama with PaddyDog.

To be fair, the Princess Bride Feast is also scheduled to occur at San Antonio's Park North location on 2/15.

"When do we get special colleges only for white people?"

"Now if there was a White History Month, that shit would be the most racist thing since slavery"

"i wish there was a white history month, and white appreciation days"

This thing is COMEDY GOLD

also, giving me apoplexy

Are we talking about hideous Pnina Torne corset dresses again?

"If we celebrated a white history month all the coloreds would be screaming racism"

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA

Wait, I'm better now: MEAT. STADIUM.

My favourite part of this whole post is that the giant high school basketball player loses the opening tip.

Posted by: Helder at February 2, 2012 2:58 PM

The Arlington Drafthouse is also screening the Princess Bride for Valintines day!

Or possibly translucent fish. One can never be sure.

Oopsie, and derp. Thanks Holly!

Posted by: Captain Tuttle at February 2, 2012 4:10 PM

I'm not a Downton watcher, but yes, O'Brien's are nice. Ethel's are nicer, though. Mmm...scullery maids. Bring on the boning - apparent or otherwise.

And since we're on the topic. Can I just voice the opinion that, while Ms. Hendrick's bosoms are indeed one of the seven natural wonders of the modern world, I like the header pic better than others I've seen of her in full *ahem* glory. Her alabaster skin, ginger hair, and OMFG those eyes - make her the girl whose brow I'd be happy to mop if she were dying of plague.

Just for the record, this gay dude appreciates a nice rack. In a purely aesthetic manner, of course.

Posted by: Drake at February 2, 2012 6:50 PM

I've seen that Harry Potter image on Pinterest a lot (because yes, I do follow a bunch of nerdy, nerdy boards. I need to keep up-to-date on my nerdy things), and I keep on waiting for someone with computer-y skills to remake it with Dumbledore instead of Harry. Harry didn't go to meet death as an old friend, Dumbledore did. Harry went to meet death pretty unhappily; it's the whole reason it's so affecting. Dubledore was pretty calm and accepting about his death. Dumbledore makes even more sense when you think about how he told Harry that Nicholas Flamel didn't mind dying, because to the well-organized mind, death was simply the next adventure. Also...
Um...right, no one cares. Sorry.

With two top-flight offenses and two adequate defenses, I predict the final score will be 2-0.

Ain't saying who'll win.

Posted by: The Wanderer at February 2, 2012 8:29 PM

The Downton Abbey link was great. They looks so different. Also, the dogs made me gigglesnort.

Posted by: ChickaBoom! at February 2, 2012 8:54 PM

The Downton link is delightful. It includes the dogs! Precious.

Second Time in a row with no UPROXX link. Hooray!

but now I have to go listen to the real Jurassic Park Theme song, because I love it.

Isobel is Harriet Jones!


Oh man, I work right down the street from the Arlington Cinema and Draft House. I wonder if there is any way in hell I'll get off work in time for their showing.

"Hey, 34, let's see you pull that shit against a team with more than one brother on it."

Why can't someone named Mamadou Ndiaye be born and raised in California? Kind of an odd comment to follow up the one calling out white racists.

Posted by: J at February 4, 2012 11:09 AM

The towering Ndiaye hails from Senegal, where he was discovered by scouts in 2010. Even though he is two inches taller than even the largest NBA players, Ndiaye plays for a small, private school in California - the Huntington Beach Brethren Christian School.


Sorry that had more to do with my cynicism regarding sports and recruitment than any racism. But I didn't convey that very well. So yes, it looked bloody racist. Thanks for calling that out.
