so this is the tatiana maslany people on this site rave about. lol. she kinda reminds me of a svelte alia shakwat.

i still enjoy parks and rec. i don't really expect too much from tv, except that its tasteful, enjoyable, and continues to be those things. and i think parks and rec still has all that. so. lots of depth here.

Aww man! :-(

"Chewing disrupts the “inner speech” wherein the brain begins to subconsciously practice pronouncing an unfamiliar brand name…"

well i hope the joke's on us! it can be a cry for help. who knows?

well. when bored i'd look at his twitter. i must say, he does have a couple of dark tweets from time to time. either he's really really mellow in real life or something isn't quite right. i always chucked it up to him being artistically aware, but he never imbibed happiness too much. but it seems he has some good…

sheesh. i hope donald's really ok. there have been quite a handful of really depressed young black celeb males who have attempted (and some succeeded) at taking their own lives this year (lee thompson young, josh marks). i sincerely hope donald isnt one of them. whatever issues he has, i hope he's surrounded by those…

I imagine being a taste tester/creator for Lays must be the worst. Basically your job is to root out the most offensive of flavor combinations and promote the most palatable of the most offensive flavor combinations *shudder*. I could never subject my tongue to that much disappointment.

YESSSSS finally watched enough Borgen to have been caught up. Welcome to the new season, all! I'm so excited! I love the idea of a Birgette/Katrine + Bent political team. I imagine they'd be truly unstoppable. Hopefully Hanne gets in on this formation as well. Loved her.

i hope its good. I dunno. I find Emma Watson's non HP work kind of lacking. I'm sure her acting prowess must be good. But i haven't seen her in anything that has really displayed that.

RIGHT? He might as well step down. He doesn't seem to give a shit about anything other than Olivia. It's really frustrating to watch.

My only qualm about this episode is the preview for the next episode. It's just so overreaching and stupid and out of this world (even given the woman who drove her car into the capitol) that i don't think i'll have the patience to sit and watch that mess of an episode. I'm sure its probably B6-13 or someone on the…

bummed at malala not winning the peace prize

Pisses me off how little we hear of Malala being awarded for her bravery, intelligence, and passion for peace and how much overexposure some celebrity gets in the media for doing stupid stuff. Who can I punch for my anger at the stuff society chooses to focus on?????

ugh. be careful with the magnesium. Yes, it's an important electrolyte and has a HUGE impact on cardiac myocyte activity and regulation.Usually its used as an anti-arrhythmic to control heart rate. But magnesium toxicity can lead to respiratory distress and cardiac arrest and you probably should be followed by a…

I usually get really tense at first because I never want to let slip that for about 10 years i was a HUGE fan of japanese and korean pop music. boy bands, girl bands, something that looked like a cat that sang techno music, traditional… nearly all of it. And though I'm now really into a LOT of different types of music…

Ack. I know Surf team wanted to make their lunch an experience, but this wasn't restaurant wars, and I kinda think they forgot that. These people that they're feeding that day have been working in the sun all morning and are hungry and tired. They expect to be fed, not entertained.

I, also, was surprised that they didn't keep him around for drama. Or vanity viewership purposes. Surely, I assumed that was at least a secondary reason for which he was selected!!! But considering Top Chef seems to have some sort of clout in the culinary world, I guess they don't mess around.

Exactly! My sister and I made the same "whomp whomp" sound effect when he gleefully began wrapping his dish. Though it seems very few times on top chef on-the-spot events does it pay off to do ANYTHING early.

I definitely agree with Sonia's assessment of Patty. She doesn't seem at all enthused about her cooking. She comes off rather shifty and insecure about her dish each and every time. She sucked last week. I was happy the judges gave her another chance to redeem herself this week. But she failed, yet again! She had a…
