TMI Tuesday
I accidentally demolished my TMI Tuesday question. So with some help, I got it back, and I’mma post it like this now. In bold are the questions.

What is your favorite fandom?
The Doctor Who fandom, no question. It has fewer scary people than some of my other fandoms (yes, I’m looking at you, Star Trek), tends to be one of the more imaginative, and perfectly...

TMI Tuesday?
I don’t usually get much of a response to this, but if there’s anything anybody is dying to know about me, I’ll answer pretty much anything. Probably publicly. Try me!
Things I will answer:
Fandom questions (if I’m not part of the fandom I may just make something up)
Personal questions
Weird random questions
Political/religious questions
Prying questions
Math...

Clara Peller, the “Where’s the Beef?” lady, lost her Wendy’s gig in 1985 after appearing in an ad for Prego spaghetti sauce in which she said, ”I found it. I really found it.” Wendy’s argued that statement “infers she found the beef at somewhere other than Wendy’s restaurants.”
She should have won a wrongful dismissal suit just on the basis of the fact that her statement did...

industrialcupcake asked: So... I have a question. If you don't dig Ron Paul for president, who do you dig? Romney? Salama- Newt Gingrich? Bachmann? Perry? They all seem like dumbasses to me. Or Obama? Paul seems to be the lesser of the evils.

Ron Paul
I have to admit, I am highly entertained by seeing arguments about what Ron Paul would do if elected President. I like reading them, because I’ve always loved absurdist literature. I’m not going to bother talking about why he’s not a viable candidate, because he proves it every time he opens his mouth.

I am with you 100% on smoking. There is very little that will make somebody more unattractive to me than being a smoker. In fact, that’s a deal-breaker for me. I cannot even imagine having such strong feelings for somebody that I would be able to get over them being a smoker. And acknowledging that that is a humongous thing to ask somebody to...

Movie Night
So tonight was movie night!
I started out with How to Train Your Dragon, at the insistence of (and expedited by threats of pouting from) pikabunny44. After that, I finally saw Rise of the Planet of the Apes.
Here is my analysis and most likely overthinking of both movies (here be spoilers):
How to Train Your Dragon was adorable. I mean really adorable. Despite all the cute and heartwarming,...

I sincerely doubt that shipping ASOIAF characters is a satisfying pastime
except maybe in an AU where GRR Martin is not evil
Please. Liking ASOIAF characters isn’t even a satisfying pastime.

Hideeho, Kermit the Frog Colleen speaking!
I am in a bit of a tight spot: in order to go back to school I need to pay off some past due debts. I have been juggling four different loans for awhile now and would like to go back to school to get two of them off my back (and to go learn things, of course!)
So, in order to come up with this last bit of money last minute I am...

“Life is like a sewer. What you get out of it depends on what you put into it.”
– Tom Lehrer
To recap, this week Obama:
mandigray:
-Made a decision that made it almost universally possible for women to get affordable birth control (Yay for women!)
-Rejected the Keystone XL Pipeline (Yay for the environment!)
-Denounced SOPA (Yay for the first amendment!)
-Sang Al Green (Yay for everyone)
Say what you want, I still believe in Hope.

Re: makeup

mcdevinpants submitted:
I just want to go on record and say that I really don’t mind if girls don’t wear makeup, especially not all the time. I won’t lie, I like the way makeup looks when it’s used properly, the effects can be stunning. But I believe there’s a lot of merit to how a girl actually looks. And I would never demand that they put on makeup to see me,...

– Nathan Hoskins knew from an early age that he was gay. But when he was growing up in rural Kentucky, his mother took extreme steps to convince him otherwise. Looking back on it now, he says, “I am who I’m supposed to be.”
