don't smoke and don't suntan, kids!

I believe the movie you're asking about is "10 things I hate about you", the character was played by Allison Janey

you are absolutely correct! it's been a while...

Teenage killer named Heather and her boyfriend, you say?

(NICE username. Love Tina.)
I think tv commercials work more to insert themselves into your conciousness. So while they might not cause someone to head right out and buy a coke right this second... they might remind you tomorrow that a coke would really hit the spot. Because that little thought has been sitting and…

I don't really pirate music because there are legal alternatives that still result in free music (Songza, and my local indie radio station) but I can tell you that I'd probably be more willing to pay for an album if the actual ARTISTS got paid a bigger chunk of the cash I'm handing over. As I understand it, only a…

DLT = Doritos Locos Taco? Maybe? But then what does Old El Paso have to do with them? Are all purveyors of vaguely mexican mainstream products (ie, taco bell/doritos/old el paso) part of some kind of incestuous conglomerate that only creates the illusion of choice?

The dress is even less flattering, if that's possible.

Half eaten, you say? I admire your restraint.

See, the problem with that is when do I ever NOT want Shawarma? Like, absolutely never. I always want Shawarma. Even if I just ate a pita filled with it and those amazing pink pickled turnips. MOAR.

somewhat related, but does product placement (the subtle type) ever actually work? I mean, I'm not talking reeses pieces in ET, where it's a plot device (but a relatively believable one, frankly) I'm talking the can of pepsi over in the corner that I didn't notice - I doubt even on a subliminal level since I am not…

If you click over to the magazine, you learn that this black top & treggings combo will run you just sliiiightly under $1000.
I mean, of course to a certain degree, you will get better quality materials and workmanship if you pay a little more, and also what we currently pay for clothes is contributing to the punitive…

I use antiperspirant but I call it deodorant. And that aluminium in antiperspirant leading to breast cancer is BS - there was a study that showed a link, it had 17 patients. The well designed studies with scientifically significant sample sizes show no link whatsoever.

Well sometimes I just wish I wasn't. Fuck.

I wonder if Barbra is going to post any pictures of her house??

That poor woman looks like she is on a heavy duty dose of prednisone. That is some serious fuckin moonface she got goin on there.

This seems to fit my (small n, non-blinded, purely observational) study which concluded that people who get super into the gym all of a sudden do so either immediately before or immediately after a relationship breakdown.

Something tells me that Thomas Pink would prefer to discourage people looking for VS' "PINK" from being in the general vicinity of their stores, nevermind actually *clutches pearls* coming inside. I mean, think of the diseases.

You know, that's a good point. The kids might end up looking inbred...
