I, too, have cried while on the elliptical trainer! But only at Rudy and The Return of the King. I save my sweaty gym tears for the good shit.

Nooooo! My streak of being double-post-free is ended! fail.

For a second when I first saw it, I thought it was the same girl In different wigs and poses. And I had no idea who she was.

I gotta be honest. After about 2 minutes of this, I went back to Keyboard Dog for a palate cleanser.

1999 was definitely a different time. I was also 15 back in ’99 and I was, unfortunately, firmly in the “it’s a choice” camp. Not out of any fear or hatred (I was a theatre geek and theatre and homophobia do not go together) but because that’s what the Bible says. I didn’t want to kill anybody; I wanted to save their souls and all that bullshit. I abandoned that way of thinking long ago, but I still get where those people are coming from. I still understand the “logic” behind their positions.
But I will never, ever understand the Reverend Phelpses and Jerry Fallwells and the Ugandan Parliaments of this world. Even stupid, sheltered, super-religious 15-year-old me didn’t, couldn’t, wouldn’t understand. I don’t see how anyone could.

My mom says “No, David Blaine!” now. Except when she forgets his name and calls him Roger or Charles. But I think “No, Roger Blaine!” is funnier, so I let it go.

I’m in Cinci too! Queen City monsters, represent!

Although my favorite part of this (though it’s all great) is usually guessing which mention of Ashlee Simpson!Arm Folding will lead to that SNL screencap, this week I spat out a bit of my frappuccino at “Boo-hoomkat.”

We’re not crying. It’s just been raining on our faces.

My kickball team captain would not be impressed. He’s too busy making up cheers to the tune of We Will Rock You to care about Clues.

See, I thought the “Table read of Family Guy ‘abortion’ episode” was going to be one of Gabe’s “Videogum Exclusive”-type deals. I didn’t think for a second that was actually a real thing. The world is a much darker place for me now.

I went to see it Friday night, and on Saturday a friend asked me how it was. I just said, “I don’t know.” ‘Cause I don’t. I mean, it was funny. It was definitely funny, but at the end I was just like, “Why am I here? What just happened? What was point of that?” I guess I felt it was lacking in motivation. It felt a little empty to me.

I think my feelings about the whole film were very nicely represented by the chaos of the cage match. I loved the Lutz and Bruno thing; I probably could have just watched a movie about their story. I thought the cage match was a beautiful moment in their relationship, and it just made me sad that the moment had to happen while they were getting food and furniture hurled at them. Maybe that was the point. I don’t know. I definitely need to see it again, without the element of surprise, and then I’ll figure out what I think.

It’s been a few weeks, so I again offer Closer up for your consideration. Not just because of the terrible, but because of the terrible pretending it’s edgy and daring. Also, Clive Owen.

Definitely the most exciting part of a Reds game.

Brilliant.

What about the shemales? Who will speak for them?

Is it just me, or was that choir segregated?

 +7Posted on Jun 6th, 2009 | re: College Will Turn Your Daughter Into A Pregnant Liberal Who Hates Cookies (114 comments)

I was very religious in my youth. Very, very religious (Junior Bible Quiz National Championships religious.) And yeah, I came back from college a raging pinko commie longhair, but it didn’t have anything to do with being “force-fed” some sort of liberal agenda.

It was because I started thinking. I stopped accepting what I was told simply because that’s what I was told. (Including what I was told in class.) And I was forced to finally acknowledge all the doubts and unanswered questions about my faith that I had had as a child. And I just couldn’t make it make sense anymore. If you can reconcile your religion to your worldview, more power to you. But I can’t.

PS. I also attended an EXTREMELY conservative college for a while, but I sure didn’t sway to their way of thinking. So don’t blame the colleges.

They drove by my house! That’s so cool.

Back to the Future. You know it’s coming. I can totally picture Zac Efron looking perplexedly at his watch while standing next to a DeLorean. Although I guess it wouldn’t be a DeLorean. Mini Cooper? PT Cruiser? Smart Car? I have no idea what the kids/mad scientists are driving these days.

He made a pretty decent fill-in lead singer on Boston’s “Whoops, our lead singer killed himself with charcoal briquets so we’re gonna replace him with a guy from Stryper and a guy from Home Depot” tour.

Good job, Candle Eye productions.

I find myself voting up his comments for no reason! I don’t know what that means! I’m just glad to see it.

Are the other Law and Orders still on? Or have they given up on them?
