Err, Just Dance was released in 2008. Months before Single Ladies was.

Sofft shoes are the best. Especially their patent leather heels - I have a pair in red that are ever so slightly half a size too small, but I still had to buy them because red! shiney! cuteness!

Two absurdly adorable bassets now!

Uh, she does, actually. Mention it, I mean. She's totally upfront about having people over to do laundry and clean. She's posted entire odes to her babysitters. The facts about her husband's wealthy family might be glossed over, but she's not shy about her own priviledged background.

Eh. I love Tucci, but I hate to see him typecast like that. Anyway, he's like 20 years too old to play Cinna. Everyone thinks Cinna was assigned District 12 because he's the new kid, remember? Turns out he requested it, but it only worked out because 12 was considered a bore to design for.

Eh. It can be good for vitamins and pills as well. As frequent allergy sufferer, I'm glad for the constant $5 off Claratin.

Yes! This is so true. One of my best friends is a preschool teacher, and she's frequently frustrated by parents who don't bother to say, change their kids out of pyjamas before bringing them in to school. Or dress them completely inappropriately for the weather, like a sun dress when it's 50 degrees outside and no…

Depends on the show runner. Russell T. Davies didn't have particularly asexual Doctors - see "The Doctor Dances" where dancing most certainly doesn't refer to just... dancing. Current show runner Steven Moffat brought the subject back with "The Girl in the Fireplace" when there's some question of what, exactly, 10 got…

Eh, to be fair, Katniss and Gale are supposed to look enough alike to pass as relatives. So... I guess if you have a blonde haired, blue-eyed Katniss, you need a blonde, blue-eyed Gale.

Any other makeup wearers baffled by the complaints about always needing to touch up? I mean, I guess I need to reapply lipstick/gloss if I'm wearing it, but that's a 5-second blind swipe and done.

Eh. That Bioware spokesperson has the right idea, but they've had a few missteps in addressing minority groups in the past. Specifically?

Oh good lord. And instead of huge screaming matches, all conflict would be of the passive aggressive kind. Expect lots of "I feel" statements, eye rolling, and loud sighs when things get really heated.

My guess is they were going for the funny - Heimdall is called the "whitest of the gods" for some odd, unknown reason that has nothing to do with his role as Ragnarok watcher and general badass. Why not cast a black guy?

Oh, but why the dull brown hair?! The questionable looking belted coat?! Please don't tell me they've regulated her to playing The Mom.

Buy around 40-50 books for your e-reader and it comes out about even on the green level. After all, you might ship the e-reader from far away, but those books weren't printed locally. Nor do you have to hop in your car/on a bus to go to the bookstore next time you want a book. Traditionally, books used a petroleum…

Eh, there's also abortion and discussion of rape. I'm gonna guess that it's the abortion thing they object to.

Awesome. Pratt has written some gorgeous short stories, so I'll be keeping an eye out for this.

@girlwonder: re: Gray-purple Essie polishes - Merino Cool? Smokin' Hot?

@orangewaxlion: That's just some bad lighting on Zoe, maybe a bit of photoshop lightening. She's Lenny Kravitz's bio daughter. Mom is Lisa Bonet... so she has some pretty people genes.

@thebeeze: Eh. MAC's limited edition branded stuff usually looks pretty cheap. See: the Disney Villians line late last year for an example
