No lie, a few months ago, on a whim, I auditioned for a cat agility reality show (which, yes, is apparently a thing) with my cat. During the first few rounds of auditioning she was more than happy to show off her skills and charm the pants off the judges. However, come time for the actual agility showdown, she ended…

Oh, my god, my Buster would fail this so utterly. Toys! Food! A whole smorgasbord of delight! Eventually he'd want to come tell me about what a good time he was having, though (he's so funny—whenever he meets a new dog he particularly likes or is having an extra good time at anything, he always takes breaks to come to…

He knows you can't eat a trophy.

Our golden values sausage, cheese, and anything small enough to fit in his mouth above any fleeting praise we could ever give him for performing in a recall event.

Everything tells me I should hate this dress, but I am in love with it.

When I was a small child, the pre-Disney version of the Little Mermaid was my favorite movie. I used to beg my parents to rent it again and again (on Beta!), I guess this was before it was common to own huge collections of movies or at least before my family was into owning movies, but we'd rent a few every weekend…

I think in the original she has a chance to NOT go seafoam? I could be wrong though. After Faerie Tale Theater I was too scared to see more. I only accepted the Disney version because Ariel was a ginger, and as the only ginge in an Italian family I needed the support.

The Disney princesses never really appealed to me, but a lot of the other characters did. Maleficent is, hands down, my favorite Disney female and character to this day. I also liked the three fairies in the first movie, particularly Merryweather. She was right. They should have left the dress blue. Ursula is…

Maleficent and Ursula are my favorite Disney females. After those two it's Lilo and Stitch all for the sheer adorable factor even if it was a bit sappy.

God, Ursula was such a fucking rock star. I'd like to point out she was one of the few villains who was never out for the protagonist; she wasn't jealous of her step-daughter's beauty, or angry that she wasn't invited to a baby shower. She was out for Triton's power and knew the best way to take him down was through…

i kinda want little mermaid sheets now...

I will watch the SHIT out of that musical.

For "Don't underestimate the importance of...body language," I turn around and walk to the back of the "stage" (shower), fling up my arms for an over-the-top hip wriggle on "body language," then throw a sultry glance over my shoulder.

Feminism aside, I can't help but maintain that Disney Animation Studios films will always be better than anything done with a computer... but I'm pretty much an old lady, so what do I know?

There was a brilliant Tumblr post not that long ago—if anyone is interested, I'll dig for it—where someone mentioned Ursula needed her own film like Maleficent. There was a comment stream and the thing that struck me—truly, changed the film for me—was someone's suggestion that Ursula was preparing Ariel for life on…

It just goes to show, if you can't beat it, use it as a pillow <3

Tripe???? You don't have to like them but:

Ugh, the Dropkick Murphys. Anything worse than Irish-Americans who *think* they're Irish?

Liam Hemsworth can traipse around in my high heels anytime he wants.
