Reading this somehow made me realize that Mariah Carey has co-opted Miss Piggy's shtick.

I've read that miss piggy was created with super agent sue mengers in mind.

Re Joan Rivers and Miss Piggy: It's sad to see former co-workers and good friends arguing this way.

Oh, I totally agree. I told someone in another thread that this should really be HBO material, because if you're not going to commit to the mind-blowing fuckupedness of it all there's really no point.

It sounds like they're going to skip all the great/terrible teen stuff and end up ten years later.

Well since it ends with her 10 years older it probably made more sense to get someone a bit older who can play younger at the beginning of the movie, rather than swap them mid-stream. At least, I hope they pick up where we left off, more or less.

I kind of wonder if they're going to drop the guardian-seduction stuff and just say she's spent the last ten years on her ballet career, maybe introduce BadBoyDancerHusband and then pick up with her launching her crazy revenge plan.

The girl who they got can pull off the seductive teenager though. She was also a young nurse on Masters of Sex.

It's Petals ON the Wind.

Sorry to hear of your diagnosis. Gluten is the fucking bomb.

I worked at Sabin in the late '90's, and the change in the neighborhood, and yes, the cluelessness and entitlement is maddening.

The cake is gluten, dairy and egg free, right?

I've worked in the school system in Portland, and now I work in public health for the state.

Sing it. Communicable disease is not a fucking choice.

You know what holds bread together and also makes it elastic? And exists all sort of normally in bread made normally? GLUTEN.

That sounds like something Dean from the Gilmore Girls would say. He's just still pissed off that Rory, like any sensible teenage/early college girl, thought that Jess Mariano was a more interesting catch than the grocery bagger with the bowl haircut and the stand-up attitude.

Yeah, it's not that "freaky."
