Who's Got His Sticky Fingers All Over Pajiba 10 Front-runner Emma Stone?

You know, my upright citizens, that I have a fairly strict No HuffPo Policy. However I’m making an exception for this article that reader Quorren sent my way. It’s the five bills the NY state senate has voted on instead of the long-delayed marriage equality act. CORN IS IMPORTANT, Y’ALL. (Huffington Post)

Speaking of readers, two of our Pajibans, Jocelyn Kelvin & Brock Wilbur, are working on a film called Your Friends Close. Take a gander at this adoooooooorable Kickstarter video and then kick a little kale their way. Kale can mean money in this scenario but it can also just mean love and support. Hurray for creative Pajibans! (Kickstarter)

You guys know that Elijah Wood is doing a new TV show, right? About a man in a dog suit? Based on a successful Australian series about a man in a dog suit? It looks super oddball, but word on the street is that it’s good. Here’s an intriguing interview with creator/star Jason Gann. (HoboTrashcan)

Speaking of oddball, Pajiban Sara Tonin (she’s not the oddball part) pointed out this splendid mash-up of “Arrested Development” and “Game of Thrones” (that’s the oddball part). Unreality has a round-up of the best images. THERE MIGHT MAYBE BE SPOILERS I DON’T KNOW. My favorite is the one of Joffrey and Jamie. (Unreality)

This new photography technology is amazing. Have you seen this? Lytro? It allows you to change the focal point of your photo after you’ve taken the picture. Go ahead, play around on the website, and if the cat picture scares you, don’t say I didn’t warn you. (All Things D)

Speaking of fearsome felines, I find this jewelry made entirely of cat fur to be, well, appalling. Also, no, no I will not tell you why I was visiting the website Modern Cat. (Modern Cat)

The Zombie Revolution will be magnetized. GRRRRR ARRRRGHHH. Which reminds me, it’s our man Joss’s birthday. Happy birthday, Joss! To celebrate, here is an amazing speech he gave from a few years back. Come to hear Meryl Streep say “Buffy The Vampire Slayer,” stay for the tears when she mentions Joss’s now defunct Wonder Woman project. (Youtube)

It’s also the great Alan Turing’s birthday. What? You don’t know who Alan Turing is? Get thee to a bookshelf, go. (Um, yeah, get a bosun’s chair too, I guess.) Pick up a copy of “Cryptonomicon” and read it until you’re done. (Hi Lobrow)

Speaking of bookshelves, as Rob mentioned earlier, the JK Rowling website Pottermore launched today. While I still think it’s a bit of a money grab, it’s at least a fairly inventive and interactive one. Not like Rowling needs the money…jeepers check out this infographical breakdown of the Multi-Billion Dollar Potter Empire. (Fast Company)

T’would appear Pajiba 10 darling (have you voted yet?!?!), Emma Stone, is shacking up with that even-toed ungulate, Andrew Garfield. Do you think they kiss upside down in the rain? I would totally do that if I were them…WHAT? (Celebitchy

Speaking of fiesty redheads, it turns out a portrait long-thought to be of Vincent van Goh is actually of his brother, Theo. Was it the two ears that tipped you off, art historians? I’m still waiting on that Lonely Space Turkey painting. (BBC)

That was an obscure “Doctor Who” joke! Oh joy! Speaking of, here’s a super cute and easy Dalek costume. She’s got the plunger but she’s missing the KitchenAid hand mixer attachment. You know, in case you need to whip up a post-extermination meringue. (Fashionably Geek)

Though it may seem like a joke, this CPR video starring Ken Jeong is for real. And, actually, rather educational.

Speaking of Jeong, my charming Chang-o-philes, this is possibly one of my favorite videos in the history of the internet. I know, I hyperbolize, but I mean it this time, I play it constantly. It’s old, it’s got a ton of views, you’ve likely seen it, but I would be remiss if I neglected those few of you who haven’t. The language? SO NSFW. Dirty earworm’d.

Joanna Robinson’s got a lot of ******* to plow so you can click on these links later, but you should click on them now. WHAT’S IT GONNA BEEEEEEEEEE??! Email! Twitter!

Other issues that the NY Senate finds more important: August 21 is now Onion Appreciation Day and sippy cups. Yes, there was a spirited debate over whether sippy cups should come with a warning label.

You're link to my link also links to another of your posts, which almost makes it like an ouroboros. Fist bump!

And I'm just glad to hear I'm not the only one who is slightly too old for Emma Stone but voted for her, anyway.

Posted by: RobP at June 23, 2011 1:12 PM

Is it cat hair ball jewelry or cat hairball jewelry?

Posted by: Mrs. Julien at June 23, 2011 1:14 PM

Nope. We in the same boat.

That said, dude has a natural English accent. can't compete with that.

Posted by: Fredo at June 23, 2011 1:15 PM

Wait, Spider-man is English too? WTF?

Posted by: fracas at June 23, 2011 1:20 PM

I can survive on kale. It's like mana, but tastier.

Let today mark the first and last time that I'm listed before Joss Whedon for anything.

Posted by: BrockW at June 23, 2011 1:26 PM

"two of our Pajibans, Jocelyn Kelvin & Brock Wilbur, are working on a film called Your Friends Close...


...and it will suck.

Speaking of, here’s a super cute and easy Dalek costume.

I'm thinking of getting some red light-up eyes, a skullcap, and dangling a bunch of cooked spaghetti noodles off the front of my face. All it needs is an oodball.

That many links within links is too unstable!

Yep. Only Iron Man and Captain America remain American. Everyone else is British, Aussie or Canuck.

Posted by: Fredo at June 23, 2011 1:37 PM

There's something about the pic of Andrew Garfield that makes me want to hit him. This is probably not the feeling the makers of the new Spiderman want.

Posted by: Matt at June 23, 2011 1:38 PM

I put my hand up on your sink, when I link you link we link...

I think the more important question is WHY are his fingers sticky?

And I have Miss Brie on the line wondering what you mean by front-runner.

Posted by: Socrates_Johnson at June 23, 2011 1:39 PM

I just realized my little parody song sounds much dirtier than I intended.

Posted by: Socrates_Johnson at June 23, 2011 1:40 PM

Are people actually making money off of the cat hair jewelry? I seem to spend several hours a day brushing my cats or vacuuming up after them during the summer. I might have to jump on the bandwagon....

Posted by: MelBivDevoe at June 23, 2011 1:56 PM

Not to be glib but do the BeeGees make any $ whenever someone sings Stayin' Alive in these PSAs?

Posted by: JenVegas at June 23, 2011 2:21 PM

I feel like I should be ashamed that I've never seen "What's It Going to Be?" before...but I'm definitely a better person for having seen it now.

Ken Jeong is awesome. Between that video and his great "The More You Know" PSA, I think I can survive until Community returns.

Posted by: SugarKane at June 23, 2011 2:21 PM

I think you mean Gibb not glib...

(I'm here all week. Try the fish.)

Posted by: Socrates_Johnson at June 23, 2011 2:24 PM

The reason the NY Senate hasn't brought SSM up for a vote is they are still one shy. Would you like them to vote on it now so it will fail? They're not waiting for fun - people are working hard behind the scenes to get the vote(s) that will put them over the top. Give them a break, will you?

Posted by: Three-nineteen at June 23, 2011 2:27 PM

Mrs Julien, you are so correct. The cat hairball jewelry is a misnomer. I zipped off to that link thinking, "Woww, must see!" And then... those pristine, WHITE (for chrissake) precious little spheres bear no resemblance to the lumpy, gray, grass-infested (how'd the grass get there?) mass my cat gaks up every few weeks. It is most decidedly cat hair ball jewelry.

Re: Daleks--- Why are they so scary? My grandma could outrun one and they can't climb stairs. I keep telling Mr. Stinky and the little Stinkies this very fact, but they just shush me and act like I'm a killjoy.

Posted by: Stinky at June 23, 2011 2:30 PM

Stinky, about them Daleks.

a) they can hover up the stairs now
b) HAVE YOU SEEN THE BEATER ATTACHMENT? THEY COULD WHISK YOU THOROUGHLY!

Posted by: coveredinbees at June 23, 2011 2:32 PM

The Daleks are now Tom Hanks' character from Bachelor Party?

Posted by: fracas at June 23, 2011 2:35 PM

Good news everybody! There's a whole blog of Arrested Development/Game of Thrones mashups
Also, I'm rerererereading Cryptonomicon in honor of Turing's birthday. I really like Neal Stephenson
Also, also, Socrates I believe that Miss Stone is actually beating Miss Brie at the moment. Not physically. In the Pajiba Ten.
Also, also, also, a moose bit my sister once...

Posted by: theprofessor at June 23, 2011 2:45 PM

Yo, coveredinbees, yeah, they might could whisk me to death, but they'd have to CATCH me first!

Posted by: Stinky at June 23, 2011 2:46 PM

Emma Stone looks just like Mary Jane Watson in that header picture, no WONDER they picked her for that role in the new Spiderman movie. She' a dead ringer for MJ. I mean, that luscious hair, those almond-shaped eyes, that huge grin - it's like Steve Ditko was dreaming of Emma when he first drew Mary Jane. That movie's gonna be a smash hit, I can't wait till...

pssst mswas, she's not MJ

Um, excuse me?

She's not Mary Jane.

Pardon?

Emma Stone is not playing Mary Jane Watson in the new movie.

Are you SURE???

She's playing Gwen Stacy.

WHAT!!!???!!!

*THUD*

And so ends another episode of Hollywood's Death by Idiotic Casting. Tune in next week when we reveal that the next Doctor will be played by Taylor Lautner.

Posted by: mswas at June 23, 2011 2:47 PM

If Lautner Doctor happens mswas, I'm holding you accountable.

Posted by: Socrates_Johnson at June 23, 2011 3:14 PM

I see her as Poison Ivy, assuming the new Batman franchise makes it that far.

Posted by: Mr. Stitch at June 23, 2011 3:27 PM

If that happens Socrates_Johnson, I'll be dead of apoplexy so go ahead.

Posted by: mswas at June 23, 2011 3:29 PM

Stinky, are you the Oncoming Storm? If not, best of luck to you. Truly. I mean it. RUN.

Posted by: coveredinbees at June 23, 2011 3:49 PM

You see the thing is, you run, and they shoot you with a death ray. I'm pretty sure the whisk is just for some kind of evil entertainment. Plus when the planet is covered with them, there aren't a lot of places to run either.

Posted by: Socrates_Johnson at June 23, 2011 3:52 PM

I know exactly how you feel, mswas. Exactly.

Posted by: RobP at June 23, 2011 3:58 PM

I feel like I had the whole chorus/hook of that song stuck in my head for most of 2008, and it was only forgotten due to several weeks of blackout benders following my divorce.

"I've got a lotta bitches to plow, so you could fuck-a me later, but you should fuck-a me now. What's it gonna beeeeee-eeeee?"

So. I've got that to do all over again. Thanks.

Posted by: feramones at June 23, 2011 4:11 PM

JoRo, why would you mention Chickensaurus? I literally just teared up in my cubicle.

We need to have PajibaWeen and submit costume pics so we can all appreciate each other's nerdiness. And possibly compare Amy Ponds and such. Whadyathink?

Posted by: Patty O'Green at June 23, 2011 5:47 PM

Soc and CIB, OK, I am getting the same kinda response from you guys that I get from my family. Have you NO sense of the possible? I'm just sayin', that, maybe, Mr. Davies, et al, might need to explore this script idea.

*Dalek rolls in, all menacing, just about to whisk to death cool, American chick, and she runs for her life, doing the zig-zag run she learned from her days workin' in the hood with inner-city kids who can teach you some stuff about avoiding bullets.*

It's kinda like when Indiana Jones met that evil Middle Eastern guy, doing all the fancy sword work, and then, Indy just shoots him. Except, of course, I ---or whomever---would do the zig-zag run, and it would completely short-circuit all Daleks because, hey, has it been established that they have 20-20 vision?

And, FYI, It is likely that I descend from Oncoming Storm ancestry because many of my family members are Smiths, some of them with a "J."

Posted by: Stinky at June 23, 2011 6:28 PM

Soc? It's So-Crates. (Miss Jackson if your nasty.)

Posted by: Socrates_Johnson at June 23, 2011 6:56 PM

Well, that didn't take long.
