facebox STDs

Apparently, you can get bugs from Facebook. As of late, I barely use my fb at all so when I got a wave of messages from people saying how they got spamed messages from me, I emailed the people at facebook who did nothing/didn't help me. So FYI I am sorry I guess even though I didn't do anything. I also temporarily suspended my account. I hope it didn't get anyone that I'd be embaressed out (elementary school frienemies, people from HS who I dislike, and randos.)

should a social networking site really give a person this much anxiety? I am scared to see my emails. also, who spams? what is this?! I am going to get to the bottom of this.

favorite summer movie?

House Bunny was hilarious!

Mega and I took in the midnight show and it was totally worth it! Sometimes in movies like this, all the funny parts are in the commercials. But this movie was so much funnier than I thought it would be. I loved it and will probably see it again and again. Not only was it super funny with a great cast and one liners, it was kinda heartwarming and touching! All the girls were super funny(Jules from Superbad and Ana Feris were amazing!) It also made me not hate Rumer Willis which was weird and remember that band All American Rejects? Well, lead singer dude is in the movie and he didn't suck!

Also, Meg's really good at that scary alien voice that Shelly uses to remember names. I'm not so much.

Next Midnight movie--- Nick and Nora's Infinite Playlist (which I am super stoked for!)

addicted...

So there is this new show on BBC America called "Skins" and I cannot stop watching it online. 
When my friend Sam was over from Bristol, he was talking about it. It didn't sound too cool but then I watched it. OMG its like Gossip Girl on speed. It is so redic...I literally had to turn my computer off because I couldn't stop watching. Only two episodes from series one have aired in the US but those damn internets have all the episodes. I kind of wish they weren't because now I know things that I wish I didn't. 


Also...
Someone hacked my facebox...I'm both confused and sorry?
(Meg's post below sums up my feelings)

And why can't American TV have nudity, sex and language like the Brits?! lameee. 

We're going to midnight House Bunny. Byeeee.

you might be a douchebag if...

you still send chain e-mails.

this one comes with a heavy heart. Since my grandmother is the one flooding my inbox with "what 1950's pinup are you?" "the difference between men and women" and "new news about cell phones". My Grandma is not a douchebag, she is just old and still uses dial-up and chain e-mails are the most fun she can find using her AOL browser. But if you're not my Grandma, and you send me a "sexual history test" or some sob story about some little imaginary child named Jessica who died from a rare form of bone cancer with instructions to sign my name at the bottom and forward it to all my friends so Jesus will let her into heaven or some retarded crap like that... THEN FUCK YOU, you're a douche.

dbag files cont'd

If your pick up line is "having friends who are casting directors". 

Not only is this social suicide, but its also on par with "I have a puppy in the back of my car" in terms of creepster potential. Especially when your the manager of Hot and Crusty.  Sure buddy! Your friends are running some castings? Sure have my phone number! Oh the castings are in a warehouse in Bensonhurst? Great! I'll be there will bells on... and my pepper spray and rape whistle. If tempting girls with the prospect of being an extra in your pal's experimental auteur film (porno) is your style for pussy-acquisition, you are in fact a douchebag, and a really creepy one at that. Next time, try these fail-safe lines instead "I'm a DJ", "I'm in banking and live in Sty-town", or "Wanna see my wiener?".

you might be a douchebag if...

You stand on the left side of the escalator.

Everyone, sans those raised by wolves, has either driven, taken driving lessons or watched a teenage comedy where highway driving hijinks were featured and oh so funny at that. And what did we learn? The left lane, is the fast lane. Just because the escalator only goes in one direction, it does not negate the “keep to the right” courtesy rule of stairs nor does it mean you can take the flank to talk about last night’s “sick” activities with your “broseph”. Maybe, just maybe, someone is in a rush and doesn’t want to wait for the geriatric crawl of moveable stairway to reach its destination on its own. Or maybe, just maybe, you and your “broseph” fucking smell because bathing after last night’s “sick” activities slipped your mind and someone would like to power past you as fast as possible to gulp some fresh unassaulted air. In any case, the left side, is where we walk. The right side is where we talk.

new series... you might be a d-bag if...

If your shot of choice is chilled grey goose.

Unless you are allergic to whiskey, Jager or a myriad of fruit juices and liqueurs, there is no excuse for chilled grey goose shots being your “go-to”. Grey Goose might be a delicious in mixed drinks or martinis, but some watered down, overpriced vodka shooter as an accoutrement to your bottle of Amstel Light is just inane. If without even knowing the selection of vodkas available, the words “two Grey Goose shots… chilled” slips off of your entitled tongue, you just might have unwittingly joining the ranks of douchebaggery. You know what my idea of a shot is? Not alcohol that is marketed to taste like water with some melted ice added to it. Even shots of chilled Patron are less pretentious.
Douche bag – def:
An individual who has an over-inflated sense of self worth, compounded by a low level of intelligence. Usually defined by inappropriate, classless, and/or ridiculous behavior.

blog on blog action

So while anxiously awaiting Meg's HI-larious post from a bus, I just wanted to write about an excellent blog/book that Meg and I enjoy.

www.stuffwhitepeoplelike.com

It's super funny and you might be suprised how vanilla you are too. (yes we all like eating outdoors and self depricating humor.) In the hardcopy (book) version, theres a quiz to see how beige and vanilla you truely are.

(I scored a 63% which makes me feel terrible about loving expensive baby strollers and David Sedaris.)


So we have some fun things in the works on this end of the internets. As I said, Meg's new post is so awesome. I got a sneak peak at it and let me tell you I laughed--and thought out loud.)
Also, after a summer's worth of McCarren Park outdoor movies, I am almost done compiling my "If I was a hipster, I'd wear..." post as well as a picture/booze journey through our summer adventures in the BK.

If you or someone you love is a hipster, please don't be afraid to email us and let us know what totally hip things they wear out on the regular that you find funny, disturbing or obsurd! It will really add to how awesome this outfit will turn out. And yes, I plan on actually putting each of my fav hip looks into one awesomely hip hipster outfit!

I wonder how gossipgirl would end a post if she was a hipster...

here comes the bride...

As a 22 year-old, I am learning the marriage is fast approaching. Not for me, but for friends I guess. I went to my first wedding in 8 years this weekend for my good friends Jen and Dave. The ceremony was fabulous and I had a ton of fun. However, I think they should give out a "What to do at a wedding" pamphlit before you go celebrate the nuptuals of a friend. When I get married, I am going to make sure everyone has their cake, and get's laid too...Here's a few things I wish I knew...

1. What to do when meeting new people for the first time at a formal event.
2. Who to pursue and who to avoid
3. How to successfully get some and maintain the formal atmosphere
4. How to handle drunk, slutty chicks at hotel bars.

While I know how to do all of this in real life, it is in "wedding world" that all the rules change and it is a whole new ball game.

Atleast my hair looked as cute as Blair Waldorfs. Howeves, I don't have a pict, or a dude, to show for it. There's always next wedding!

On a serious note: Best. Wedding. Ever. J&D are adorable. Great group of people there. So much fun! Let's do it again sometime!
