the stylist episode 1

I have recently become obsessed with the carcrash-like BRAVO show "the rachel zoe project." everyone on the show seems to speak the same way. in some bizarro "valley girl-meets-kelly ("shoes")-meets-exotic squaking bird" accent. it's hard to pinpoint exactly, but rachel and her staff's emotional devastation over dresses, blouses, jewelry, and shoes is absolutely hilarious to watch. here's my loving riff on her...

Voice Talkers

Maybe it's just because I work as a sound recordist and used to record audiobooks for a few years, but I find this hysterical. The group POYKPAK is hilarious and you should check out their youtube channel here.

Don't everybody weep at once

Looking back at the legacy of a truly vile man...















From the blog joemygod:

Jesse Helms, the man who in 1987 described AIDS prevention literature as "so obscene, so revolting, I may throw up."

Jesse Helms, the man who in 1988 vigorously opposed the Kennedy-Hatch AIDS research bill, saying, "There is not one single case of AIDS in this country that cannot be traced in origin to sodomy."

Jesse Helms, the man who in 1995 said (in opposition to refunding the Ryan White Act) that the government should spend less on people with AIDS because they got sick due to their "deliberate, disgusting, revolting conduct."

Jesse Helms, the man who in 2002 announced that he'd changed his mind about AIDS funding for Africa, but not for American gays, because homosexuality "is the primary cause of the doubling and redoubling of AIDS cases in the United States."

Many people hold Ronald Reagan responsible for adding to the early AIDS death toll by his inaction on the pandemic, but it was Helms' actions in thwarting early research that inarguably hastened the demise of many thousands of Americans. How many of my friends, of your friends, would be alive today if the life-saving medications had arrived just one fucking year earlier?

Did Bono lose a bet this night or something? ANYONE know the backstory on this picture? WTF?

TODAY'S SONG: "THE WAITER" by A CROWD ELECTRIC

John McCain has a shitty staff

His senior press aides are so dense they even give reporters from FOX news a hard time. My favorite part is when his national press secretary refuses to give the reporter her name when he hands her a business card. At least Bush tried to woo folks for a few months. Get ready kids. John McCain's staff has no interest in chit chat and he doesn't want to make out. He's just going to f*ck you into submission while growling at you with his scary crooked face...
and then pee on you.

...but seriously, is he a Batman villain?
