Dammit, I forgot a title again

Did I mention that I just realized yesterday that the Golden Globes are this weekend? I mean, not that that's a huge problem, but I hadn't started strength-training mentally preparing myself for the liveblogging. (The goal, by the way, is to have something you can actually read a week later and have any clue what I was talking about.) They didn't ( Read more... )

For me, the Cardigans love goes to "Choke" and "Step on Me", but it's true that without "Lovefool" I might not have bought that CD (oh, man, I am so OLD), and it is still one of my go-to discs for Happy Times.

I had a horrifyingly violent physical reaction when I saw the trailer for Bride Wars. Because I value my life, I will be avoiding that movie like the plague. (Also, apparently Anne Hathaway is going to win a Golden Globe, according to their website?)

For "Rachel Getting Married," yeah. It's very likely she'll be nominated for an Oscar, and might even win it.

Yeah. I just got a kick out of the website glitch. Oh Golden Globes, you so crazy.

Oh, I thought you meant the Bride Wars site was claiming she was going to win.

Strange Days: Love that movie. The NYE scene with Mace and the cops and the confetti is just breathtaking.

You're definitely not alone with the love for Strange Days. One of my favorite bits is when he's in the apartment trying to be all menacing with the gun, and he fumbles it. Also, I *loved* his wardrobe in that movie. Also also? He and Angela Bassett had scorching chemistry.

Women, You Don't Care About Superheroes

HAHAHAHA. Oh lordy. Don't you just love it when men tell women what's inside their own heads? With just a few words from this wisest of males, all of comics girlfandom is invalidated! Because we all played with dolls and not action figures when we were little, dontcha know.

(Shit, where have my eyes rolled to?!)

To be fair, I didn't play with dolls or action figures, though I did covet a Leonardo the Ninja Turtle for a while. I was a Legos, Tinker Toys, and Creepy Crawlers type.

I played with dolls. I had a huge collection of Barbies when I was a kid. I'm a very, very girly girl, with more shoes than sense who used to spend my childhood weekends practising dance moves and playing with my sisters' clothes and make up... after my Saturday morning X-Men and Batman cartoons finished. Oh, and those barbies were all married off to Transformers and Ninja Turtles figures. Which were also all my own treasured toys. And when I grew up, I wanted to be Indiana Jones. Not be WITH him, BE him.

Why must a woman have to either be a girly girl and not be interested in the manly activities that men do or be a total tomboy who must disown their femininity in order to justify their likes and is thus labelled a lesbian? We can be and often are both!

Mothers, teach your daughters that they can kickass even in a frilly pink ball gown!

(Sorry, this isn't directed at you, it just frustrates me that women still can't just be accepted for who they are and must be boxed into types.)
