Speaking of Glee, I watched the first two episodes of Ryan Murphy's new TV show, American Horror Story. And holy crap, it is nuts. By which I mean, it's not good, but I will watch every single second of it. All those Murphy trademarks - a penchant for camp and bad taste, insane tonal shifts, shamelessness - are...interesting in something that's ( Read more... )

You know, I watched a bunch of Glee when it came out, thought to myself, "Wow, this is pretty horrible" and stopped. But the pop-culture hive mind wouldn't let it go (plus my gay best friend loves it), and because I like to back up my hating of things, I kept keeping up with it, and catching up with it ( Read more... )

Wow, May 1st has come and gone and rioting in Berlin was at a minimum. Guys, I'm impressed.
Oh, and even though not much of note has happened, have some random updates!

I got myself all four volumes of George R. R. Martin's "A Song Of Ice And Fire" because the HBO adaptation really has me intrigued. For a lazy reader like me, this is quite an ( Read more... )

I know, I seem to be unable to stop poasting an epic boatload of sims (har di har har etc.), but I suppose I love this game too much. Also, it occurred to me that I have never shown my Three Investigators (Drei Fragezeichen) sims on here, which cannot stand!
