Support shorts, internet trolls, and the lexicology of the Wu Tang Clan

IT’S THE LEG WARMERS RIGHT?

hello.misscarrot.withpinkkneehighs

It’s totally the leg warmers isn’t it?

WHO WANTS TO LIVE FOREVER? Well, not quite. But, vampires…turns out they’re onto something.

THIS WILL COME AS ABSOLUTELY NO SURPRISE: Internet trolls are psychopaths.

NO MORE BULLSPIT: This, completely. And I write that as someone who has been around long enough to have made some poor “publishing” decisions.

HUNGRY AND CURIOUS:

HEADS UP: For our guys in the neighborhood of OK.

TOO BIG TO JAIL? I’ll believe this when I see the perp walk. Until then, I am not holding my breath.

THE HOUSE ALWAYS WINS: Las Vegas seems to have Ben Affleck’s number these days. Also, wow. This is wild.

WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG? Artificial Intelligence is probably not going to work out too well for us. Then again…

LOVESEXY:

Things are about to get really good for Prince fans. 

SIX FEET PER SECOND? Oh hells no. Nope. No. Not-uh. Noooo.

SHAKESPEARE’S SLASHER PLAY: I was fortunate to see Sir Ian McKellen perform in this at a Royal Shakespeare Company production once. It was terrific. This latest production seems to have freaked some folks out. Perhaps they never read the play?

SPEAKING OF THE BARD: He has nothing on Wu Tang. 

MOVES LIKE RENNER:

I would kill to look that great doing that kind of thing in apparel like that. According to scarygodmother,

Apparently this is an actual thing Jeremy Renner does to warm up for a scene. Tom Cruise saw him doing it and made the director put it in the movie.

THE DUDE WOULD NOT APPROVE: Bowling needs a makeover. Or something.

THE COLD WAR STRIKES AGAIN: This seems completely crazy to me.  Anyone else?

WANT: There is something about these letters and their context that fascinates me.

WERE I THIS FEARLESS: These people amaze and frighten me. I am so unfamiliar with this way of living. Then there’s this guy.

DOSSIER UPDATE: A few week’s back I posted a “trailer” for Anthony Doerr’s new novel, All The Light We Cannot See. I’m halfway through this and it is spectacular. It has just been released and the reviews have been stellar.

TRANSFORMATION OF THE WEEK: I kind of am amazed that actors can pull this kind of stuff off (Jared Leto I am totally looking at you).

YOU KNOW ABOUT THIS $#!@ RIGHT? The first time I encountered that which had previously been unknown, I was totally freaked out.  If you’re headed abroad, maybe this will save you some grief.

    I have been laughing with my friends all week over the pictures of the compression shorts with the “cock awning” as we call it. The best part is the photo of professional soccer player Wilfried Zaha posing in them, apparently at gunpoint by the look on his face.

    “trolling correlated positively with sadism, psychopathy, and Machiavellianism, using both enjoyment ratings and identity scores.”
    “Thus cyber-trolling appears to be an Internet manifestation of everyday sadism.”

    Oh. Well, this is awkward. I’m gonna have to really think about this while I’m clubbing those kittens, later.

    seems pretty obvious to me that actors transform themselves by injecting the blood of the young.

    I have experienced those shelf toilets in Austria. They were weird to get used to and didn’t make any sense to me.
