Lady J Meets Lo Mein

Here's a little video of my little niece, Julianna, eating lo mein for the first time. Aaaaaaaand, it's freakin' adorable.

Then Why Do These Tears Come At Night?

I think I kinda sorta love this.

I See

“I met Iggy Pop at Max’s Kansas City in 1970 or 1971. Me, Iggy, and Lou Reed at one table with absolutely nothing to say to each other, just looking at each others' eye makeup.”

- David Bowie

For some reason, it amuses me up to think of rock's edgiest men enamored with each others' eye shadow application. Right on, gentlemen. Right fucking on.

Oh, Buster

That heel spin should win an award.

This Gives Me Major Flashbacks To Sixth Grade

Like, MAJORLY.

Apparently, someone adapted the game Girl Talk into a talk show. Makes sense, right? Well, apparently sixth grade girls talking about things that interest sixth grade girls is kinda boring. It's like an issue of Teen Beat come to life. Soleil Moon Frye is the guest host with appearances by Brian Robbins from Head of the Class and New Kids on the Block. I probably would've loved this when I was little now that I think about it. Watching it now, it just reaffirms my belief that sixth grade girls shouldn't wear neckties, like, ever.

Here's Part 1

Emotional Sharks

I'm not sure what this is about, but I liked it.

Right Now

Just got back from the gym after a long day. I wish someone would do this to me.

Haha.

Dude

I do miss having an attention span. I'd probably choose different authors, but the point is taken.

The Boss By A Buzz Band

Here's Vampire Weekend doing an acoustic cover of Bruce Springsteen's "I'm Going Down." I've been listening to Bruce a lot lately so it raised my eyebrows.

Sleeping...LIKE A BABY

Bwahaha.

Snowstormy

I've been waiting for this weather for a while. I don't wanna leave my house for a few months. I wanna get my work done and emerge into the sunlight when the flowers start to bloom again.

Deep Thought

Glenn Danzig looks like Ryan Adams here. I am not complaining about that.

Swervin' and Pervin'

I have no idea who this is, but I haven't laughed this hard in ages. It's like the fast talker guy from King of the Hill meets Vince Vaughn in Swingers. Or something. And, it's hilarious.

Watch this. Just do it.

Today Was A Good Day

Today was pretty much epic.

• A package I've been waiting on to arrive finally came in. THANK THE LORD! Even though I don't celebrate Christmas, this is on track to be a very merry one for me. Oh my god, I'm so relieved it came.
  
• SK went viral. Someone "liked" one of my posts on StumbleUpon two days ago and it basically blew up. So far, I've received over 25,000 35,000! hits today from people stumbling with no signs of it slowing down anytime soon. This is insane for a tiny blog like mine. This is easily the biggest day we've ever had on the site and it's just insane to see my stats flipping up like a winning slot machine jackpot.
  
• Oh yeah. SK isn't so tiny anymore. Today marks a huge milestone for me because I now have over one million hits. ONE FUCKING MILLION. I knew I was gonna post up a million hits this week but I thought it would take a few more days. Now with today's mania, it's already pushing well over a million hits. I can't even handle it.
  
• I'm getting a cool present tomorrow. Yessssss! 

HOLY MOLY, WHAT A DAY! I wanted to take myself out to lunch to celebrate these good things happening but I couldn't think of anywhere I wanted to go. I just walked around in a daze thinking about my good fortune. I settled on some tomato soup at Cosi after an hour of tossing around lunch places in my head which was whatever but HOLY SHIT today blew my mind.

I Party During The Week

On the weekends I chill.

"C'mon Feet Don't Fail Me Now"

I've danced to this song more times than I can count.

What Is This?

Stairway via a Beatles knock-off? I don't know what it is, but I like it.

I Don't Wanna Get Outta Bed

Hmmmm

Gotta go with the United States shape.

Ahaha

Chess/ Jersey Shore humor!

I Wanna Snap His Suspenders

I gave Boardwalk Empire another chance over the weekend and now I have a crush on Al Capone. Or, more accurately, I have a crush on the actor who plays him. Frankly, he's adorable. Sure, he looks like an overgrown toddler, but that's not gonna get in the way of our love. No sir. Look at that puppy face? WHO COULD RESIST? WHO WOULD WANT TO?

Diving In

Holy shit I want this.

Thought You Guys Might Like This

I am really digging this mix I found on Dross Culture, a tumblr blog I just stumbled on. This mix was made for summer listening, but I find that it's great for this pre-winter chill we've got goin' on. Here's what the post says:

It’s time to find that summer fling thing. That thing that might make it through to the holidays, but if not, you always had that summer. I need a lady that’s whiskey rock n’ roll wrapped in summer dresses stepping on glass in her cowboy boots, a total bad ass. I can’t promise this lady diamonds and pearls; however I can promise her one thing, It’s gonna be hot. This is the soundtrack, 60 Days of Summer Mixtape.

We've Got A Video Here

Here's the new video for the song "We've Got A Situation Here" by The Damned Things. A new band, they are 2/5 of Fall Out Boy, 1/5 of Every Time I Die and Scott Ian from Anthrax and two other dudes who I don't remember where they're from. Sorry, guys.




I have to say, I dig the song even though I don't listen to music like this anymore. The video is hilarious and slightly political too, which is cool. My only complaint is that it seems as though the few girls in it are sex objects. It's not surprising that that's the case because most metal is just a big boys' club anyway. And who knows, maybe they are trying to be ironic by making this video practically girl-free, but as I saw the guys in the band shoot lasers out of their instruments all I could think of is how rad it would be to see a girl wield the same kind of power. I went to a women's college! What can I say? I think of things like that.

In other news, every guy I've ever seen named Keith has been a stone cold fox. Keith Buckley is no exception. He's like Taco from The League's twin brother! Fuck it. I want 'em both.

A Dream Team

They look like pleasant Sunday mornings personified.

Summertime in Falltime

Here's "Summertime" off My Chem's new album. I think this might be my favorite song they've ever done. I love the lyrics, the imagery, the little flourishes: it's so easy on my ears. It's just perfect.

Could You Imagine?

Could you imagine opening your door and seeing him on the other side holding a bouquet? HOLY SHIT!

He's No Kingpin

This is my favorite kind of Steve Buscemi: wormy, uncomfortable and desperate.

5'4?? That's almost too short for me. Almost.

Worldwide Phenomenon

I really enjoyed this BBC video about the rise of the world's standard of living in the last 200 years. It illuminates global trends in a zippy, appealing way. Watch!

I've Been Listening To The New Patrick Stump Songs Non-Stop

I'm like this, seriously. Non-stop. I even sang along in the shower!

Deep Thought of the Day

“Love conquers all.”

For centuries upon centuries, we have been misinterpreting this famed trio of words. The uninformed masses breathlessly hold up this dwarfish phrase as a justification for snogging in public squares, abandoning wives, cuckolding husbands, for the escalating divorce rate, for swards of bastard children begging for handouts in the Whitechapel and Aldgate tube stations when in fact, there is nothing remotely encouraging or cheerful about this oft-quoted phrase.

The Latin poet wrote “Amor vincit omnia” or “Love conquers all.” He did not write, “Love frees all” or “liberates” all, and therein lies the first degree of our flagrant misunderstanding. Conquer: to defeat, subjugate, massacre, cream, make mincemeat out of. Surely this cannot be a positive thing. And then he wrote, “conquers all” - not exclusively the unpleasant things, destitution, assassination, burglary, but all, including pleasure, peace, common sense, liberty and self-determination. And thus we may appreciate that Virgil’s words are not encouragement, but rather a caveat, a cue to evade, shirk, elude the feeling at all costs, else we risk the massacre of the things we hold most dear, including ones sense of self.”

I never thought about it this way before. Hmmmm.
