Pajiba

Poor Maggie. She used to be so pretty before the photoshop zombies got her. Now she just wants to eat your brains.

*slaps head*

Thanks Jen. While it's true that I'm the idiot of Pajiba, that's an embarrassing slip, even for me.

Jay, I swear to Godtopus I never understand what you're talking about. This is most likely my fault since people keep telling me I'm slow. So yea...I'm right up there with McConaushirtless on the list of slow/possibly heavily drugged people.

Maggie doesn't do it for me normally, but up there she just looks like the ghost of Marylin Manson.

I still don't get why it's better for Israel to have nuclear bombs than Iran. Actually, why should anyone have those bloody things? And how come the country that gets to decide who gets them or not is, y'know, the only country to ever use them? Fuck it. I say let anyone who wants them have them. *gasp* Wait...do you think that's what happened to Earth in BSG?

Oh, the Iranian president has said, along with saying that there are zero homosexuals in his country (cause he...checked really thoroughly, or something), said that the current oil market is not being controlled by simple supply and demand but being manipulated by other forces, some unseen, and that it's not the Middle East suppliers' doing if the price is getting jacked up, and they wouldn't want to price themselves out of business anyway, which Saudi Arabia has admitted to fearing, though they're hedging on "we'll increase output"/"there's ALREADY plenty on the market, stop freaking the fuck out already!" (and I do so loathe the self-fulfilling headless chicken people in the world markets).

And, while I think he's a bit bonkers, I do agree that the current oil market is a scam (though ultimately beneficial in that people are finally starting to run away from it). So I'm getting a bit immune to news that makes traders sell off and drop the price one day, and then a memo saying some Venezuelans might stage a sickout next year that appears the following day to boost the price back up, and it's always such a coincidence. The oil price dropped 8 or 9 bucks this week, and immediately after that was the "reported Iranian missile launch" story that started the chickens up again, and I thought "et tu, you crazy bastard?"

Of course, then you usually get something like (I don't know if it's happened yet on this one): "but it was shown to be faked! Some of their shit doesn't even work! Sell off already!" "Well, we have to be cautious and not rash about these things". Like the guys who work in trading saying "oh, it's not a bubble at all, commodities traders have absolutely nothing to do with the price right now and there's no reason for the price to go down", which is never followed by "is there a conflict of interest in your answer by any chance?".

Of course I don't know it all, but I know it's a big messy joke. Or, to quote David Lowery, I need a new kind of tension cause the old one just bores me to death.

(and yes, the Nuclear Club is silly, along with the people who own the bombs saying "Nuh uh! You're gonna build bombs, I know it!! We can't trust you to be peaceful!!")

See? I just made my own faux pas right there by citing 'misspelling' as your subject, instead of mixing up first and last names.

Then again, I'm pretty drunk, too - started way too early for a Friday night.

I adore Maggie Gyllenhaal. She will always have a special place in my heart. I also find her to be a very attractive woman. She is not a traditional beauty, to be sure, but that mag cover is just sad.

Between this and that damn Agent Provocateur campaign last year, people need to learn that with a unique looking woman like Ms.G, less is more. Please stop piling makeup on this poor woman and making her look like a clown.

Go mess with Kiki Dunst and leave Maggie alone.

thank you

This is a public service announcement.

Today is 7-11. 7-11's birthday.

If you go to your local 7-11, they will give you a small cup for which to fill with FREE SLURPEE.

FREE SLURPEES!

That is all.

Mmmmmm.. "lazy"

That quality turns me on, Sarina. Lazy women are God's gift to male couch potatoes. RROOOWWWRRRR!

"FREE SLURPEES!"

Dirty!

Now I'm picturing Shonda Rhimes as Robert DeNiro.

I want her DEAD! I want her family DEAD!

Oh and I'd forgotten about Winston's summer haircut. Like that cat wasn't already freaky.

NMN - fucking RIGHT ON.

RE: that "McConaughey" clip...
i only saw Olivia Munn.
Are you implying there were other people in that video?

It might be what an actual cat would look like if viewed from the wrong end of a telescope, with a very shiny spoon held up to the telescope lens, if you had done a lot of really bad acid. But only barely.

You forgot the part about how someone clearly hit it in the face with a shovel. Or a frying pan. Or possibly a building.

*muttermutter*

Damn Americans with their topsy-turvy ways of writing months before days and free slurpees and think they're so good blah blah...

*muttermutter*

I dunno about Cookie, but wine (in slurpee form or otherwise) makes me belligerent. If anything, I reckon the sugar buzz (which is inevitably followed by the heart-wrenching sugar crash) would just make him/her angrier. Besides, (s)he's totally right; that months/days thing annoys the hell out of me, particularly when I have to deal with American clients and their damn backward notation...it goes in chronological order, dammit! Days are the smallest, the months, then years are the biggest! Perfectly logical! Cookie, what do you say we take over the damn States and do something about this? This may be the wine (and vodka) talking...

You all were really starting to miss it. Admit it.

Um, is Tom Cruise spamming the comment thread, or is that just my imagination?

You mean Katie Holmes who used a hand sanitizer on a swing before she'd let her child sit on it? Yes, she's very charming.
