Woohoo! I’m getting this put together on time today, because I actually went to bed before the sun was starting to come up, despite drinking Long Island Iced Teas out of a goddamn mason jar for most of yesterday. In fact, I would have even had it done ahead of time but that mouthy motherfucker Prisco has been jawing my ear off for the past three hours. Last night was the last night of SXSW where the whole gang of us were together, and I woke up to an empty house this morning save for Prisco and P-Step. Sigh. Stacey sad.

So today is St. Patty’s Day, but I honestly don’t think I can even look at an alcoholic beverage after being drunk for the past three days. I could probably do one of these “Irish” cakes, though. (CakeWrecks)

Here’s the downside of drinking for three days straight? Seeing shit like this on the internet and immediately becoming violently ill. (Yeeeah!)

Aww, look! The little man Tucker Carlson is finally trying to get his comeuppance against Jon Stewart. (HuffPo)

This is awesome, IKEA featured a gay couple in one of their catalogs and then bitchsmacked a Catholic group that complained about it. Prisco says, “Because at IKEA, you can fit two rods together.” (omg blog)

Somebody needs to step up and say something to Joaquin Phoenix, but you know what? Gwyneth Paltrow is not that fucking person. Whenever she opens her mouth I just want to punch her in it. (Celebitchy)

Speaking of people I want to punch in the face, Pete Wentz has taken to drinking his own piss at Fall Out Boy concerts. Why? Because it’s funny, apparently. (AgentBedhead)

Kanye West actually has “assistants” that post his redonkulous, all-caps rantings on his blog. Hmm, I could use some assistants to help me blog this week. (TheBlemish)

I think I’ve drank away the part of my brain that keeps me from eating disgusting food like this, because this actually sounds halfway appetizing. (TIB)

Best job resignation ever? (SeriousEats)

Haha, somebody got a hold of the Hogan family’s phone numbers and leaked them on the internet. If this were any other celebrity I might feel kinda bad, but, you know, it’s the Hogans and all. So feel free to use them! (Celebslam)

Here’s the obligatory photo of a cute animal doing something cute St. Patrick’s Day related. (CuteOverload)

Leprechaun on the news! Happy St. Patty’s Day!

Oh man, I love that news clip. Especially the amateur sketch. It is just classic.

If Cliff Burton weren't already dead, this would bring him to suicide.

I clicked on the Yeeah! link and, in a fit of pure terror, immediately closed it. Was, or was that not, the Sarlacc?

The other day I heard a song on the radio. It was a great song; fun, kicky, good lyrics, good melody. I was left wondering who it was, so I googled the lyrics I remembered.

Then I felt my blood run cold and my gorge rise, my stomach clench up as the horror sunk in: it was a Fallout Boy song. I liked something that Pete Wentz was responsible for making.

I'm still traumatized. I don't know how to deal with this dirty feeling. There aren't enough showers in the world.

I hope this isn't true, but it's being reported that Natasha Richardson has died following injuries from a skiing accident.

Posted by: Cindy at March 17, 2009 1:36 PM

OK, the death thing has been retracted.

Out, damn'd guyliner! Out, I say!

But they say she's not expected to survive.

Posted by: Cindy at March 17, 2009 1:47 PM

According to the BBC and Reuters she is critically injured but not dead. Very sad, she's a great actress.

Posted by: Sharopa at March 17, 2009 1:55 PM

News on Ms. Richardson seems sketchy at best. I'm reading everything from she's not expected to survive to "I read she's already left the hospital and she's fine". Here's hoping she's alright.

Posted by: Mike R. at March 17, 2009 2:01 PM

She's a fantastic actress.

Posted by: Cindy at March 17, 2009 2:04 PM

He writes weird fun lyrics. He's also the heir to the Massengill Fortune. These two things don't have to affect each other.

Posted by: Optimus Rhyme at March 17, 2009 2:05 PM

Cindy, agreed. Please substitute "fantastic" for "great" in my prior post.

Will all of neptune's water wash this ~~blood~~ eyeliner off my ~~hands~~ mind?

NAY.

Posted by: figgy at March 17, 2009 2:26 PM

On a serious note, Cindy, that makes me sad. I like her, and they always seemed like a lovely couple. I hope she pulls through.

Posted by: figgy at March 17, 2009 2:27 PM

I feel much the same figgy.

Posted by: Cindy at March 17, 2009 2:46 PM

I'm listening to a Fall Out Boy song RIGHT THIS VERY MINUTE, Figgy! It's fun and kicky and I'm doing the shoulder dance to it at my desk. It's called, "I Don't Care" and you know what? I don't care. I'm not ashamed.*

*FINE, I'm a little ashamed, but it's not even the worst music I've listened to today, so suck it.

Posted by: Lainey at March 17, 2009 2:48 PM

The one I heard was "America's Suitehearts". I can't help it. I like it.

This reminds me of the one time in 1997 I actually listened to a snippet of "MmmBop!" and enjoyed it. This was before I realized it was from a group named "Hanson", and they were in fact NOT girls as their vocals had promised. It was a cold, cold day when the truth kicked in.

I can't believe this, but I actually agreed with Gweneth Paltrow, until the "project" statement. Dumb ass.

I really hope Richardson pulls through. She's a great, but underrated actress.

Posted by: Brie at March 17, 2009 4:10 PM

Haha love the video! I'm from Mobile and it never gets old. God I live with some ignorant fucking people....

Posted by: sarahc at March 17, 2009 4:18 PM

figgy, here's the thing about Fall Out Boy; they are excellent pop musicians. They write great pop songs with fun lyrics and good hooks. The PROBLEM is that they think they're super alternative punk rockers or something like that, and they're not. That is what makes Wentz douchtastic, not the music.

Posted by: Genny (also Rusty) at March 17, 2009 5:43 PM

Very true. I do like their sound, and their singer has a great voice. Too bad they're pretentious douches.

Posted by: figgy at March 17, 2009 8:22 PM

Genny, Oasis are douches, U2 are douches, Kanye West is a douche, but Fall out Boy is both douchey and terrible. Especially at concerts, and even more so if its Pete Wentz performing. The other members may have a glimmer of talent, but not Wentz. He's less talented than his wife, and the fact that he's the father of another human makes me want to castarate him.
