"I’m currently living in a beat-up, non-running RV on a dusty back lot in Riverside..." That may be the beat-up RV in Riverside where I lived for most of my childhood. 'Cept I never thought I was "homeless" because I had a roof over my head. Go figure.
From Amazon.com: "In a society driven by celebutante news and myspace profiles, women of class, style and charm are hard to come by. The Audrey and Katharines of the world continue to lose their lustre as thongs, rehab and outrageous behaviour burn up the daily headlines. But, despite appearances, guys still want a girl they can take home to their mother, employers still like to see a tailored suit and peers still respect classy conduct. So is it possible to maintain old fashioned virtues in a modern world without looking like a starchy Amish grandma? Christy shows women how in this guide to glamorous style, professional success and true love...the classy way. Full of fun assignments, notable names and real-life examples, Christy offers a new look at seemingly 'old fashioned' advice. She covers diet, speech, work ethic, friends, relationships, manners, makeup and fashionable yet modest clothing, showing modern ladies how they can be beautiful, intelligent and fun while retaining values and morals."
I was hoping this would be more of a commentary on the changing view of women and celebrity in society, rather than another vapid how-to guide with the bottom line: "act classy, not slutty." So much for wishful thinking...
"Yeah, I mean, I totally stopped wearing makeup and push up bras. I was such a LEZBO!"
@Your Screenplay Sucks: That's awesome. Kudos to your grandparents!
Straight, white males have been oppressed for too long. I'm glad someone finally has the courage to do something about it.
I watched Terminator: Salvation this weekend hoping it would fill the T:SCC cancellation-void in my heart. It didn't.
I'm still holding on to a glimmer of hope that T:SCC will be picked up by any corporation with half a brain...
If I had any doubt of whether I would give Fox a second chance after canceling T:SCC, this sealed the deal for me. It's crap, crap, crapity-crap. Couldn't even get through the three-minute previews! Grrr...
"We make no apologies"? Kevin Reilly, you're an asshole.
It's not over 'till it's over. On your feet, soldiers! Keep those emails going... what, like it would hurt at this point?
@KimberleeJean: I'm glad I'm not the only one disgusted by the anal beads-turned necklace.
I've watched "The Craft" about a gazillion times. And hortense, you are my new favorite person for the Our Lady Peace shout out!
@Shelby: You are DEFINITELY not alone. *scrolls back up to bum shot*
The only thing better than Hugh Jackman serving you breakfast? Hugh Jackman serving you breakfast in bed.
*daydreaming*
@crashedpc /sarcasm: No one that I would be interested in seeing, hence why I don't understand most pop culture of today.
Nuh uh, no. No to remaking "Drop Dead Fred", and no to Russell Brand as Fred. Fred was not meant to wear too-tight girl jeans and have pervy hair.
This is definitely one post I have been waiting for. And I'm enjoying the "Io9 Master Control Program" tag.
Graeme (or anyone): that first image in this post (with the alien/monster-ish face in the lower right corner), where is that from?
Sheesh, guys, would you all stop trying to rip Graeme a new one? He was merely pointing out that there will be changes to the third season. Besides, only presenting one-sided arguments would make for a very boring io9 and wouldn't tell us anything we didn't already know. Really, would you rather this post have been titled, "In case you hadn't noticed, 'Heroes' has kicked the bucket"?
Now sit back and play nice, or I will curse you all with Sylar's mommy issues.
Well hello, Mr. shoulder tattoo....
