Ugh. I was home sick yesterday and since I didn't have enough in the DVR arsenal, I ended up watching this commercial like four times (actually, the first time I only heard it and though the name of it was B.S. not Beyaz). It's awful.

@lawyergay: I want to DVR that so bad right now.

@hilikusopus: Ha. Perfect.

@beercheck: And I declined, but wished him good luck.

Back in my craigslist days, I had a few people directly copy and repost a couple of ads I'd written. I wouldn't have noticed, but other users sent me links to the copycat. I emailed one man who reposted my entire ad verbatim, changing only the gender specific pronouns (I think he replaced "chubby" with "hefty" too),…

@MaggieF: She's been pretty virulent anti-DADT, and she's also a pretty strong supporter of gay marriage. Her twitter will back all of this up.

@token_liberal: Agreed. It sounds like she was merely trying to break the ice a bit, and songs are the only way I've ever passed an anatomy class.

I want to be less cynical and sarcastic. I want to be warmer. I may even start hugging people this year.

Another thing to consider is that most (all?) of the clients featured on the show are given matchmaking services gratis. Patti might be less likely to kick out millionaires who are paying her, and maybe the clients are taking the matchmaking process more seriously?

I wish Snookie would have released her book in time for Christmas. It would have made a most excellent white elephant gift.

Isn't The Kids Are All Right getting some buzz? That's written and directed by a lady (the very awesome Lisa Cholodenko) starring ladies about lesbian ladies.

I'm still waiting for Sitwell to finally develop G.O.B.'s idea for Single City. That brochure would be riddled with delicious entendres.

@jamsammy: She was featured in a magazine as one of New York's most eligible bachelorettes, and she asked the make-up artist at the shoot to make it look like she had a black eye and a few missing teeth.

Claire Danes as Jordan Baker! That's exactly who Jordan Baker has always looked like in my head, I just didn't realize it.

With a few more antics, this story is ripe rom-com territory...

Can I throw Cussanova into the talk show mix? Maybe Jay too...they could have a fashion version of the View.

@OnTheLevel: This is similar to the rationalization of the Anti-Homosexuality Bill piloted by David Bahati in Uganda, albeit less extreme. That is, the idea that no Ugandan could actually be born gay, and that, instead, it's a result of Western influence.

Does Hollywood understand the concept of an adaptation? It requires a little bit more than just borrowing the title.

@noonecaresowen: She's deleting any negative comments. Keepin' it real.

@slf72: I'm still bitter about the year my faux fur purple parka totally upstaged my homemade Princess Jasmine costume.
