Comic for Friday, March 18th

Posted: 8:55 am, Friday, March 18th, 2005

I've never met the new Watch Me Turn 30 girl, not even in a memory-obliterating drunken stupor (although, damn, that's really about the only thing I forget entirely from that day), but she is pretty fuckin' cool, because she met Tek.

The 30 hot things to say to a naked girl from yesterday spawned many better suggestions in the Fark forum. #32: "Mom?"

There is a "big sale" at the Sleater-Kinney shop right now. I guess they're clearing inventory before their new CD comes out in late May. I am tremendously excited for new music from them. One Beat was probably my favorite album from 2002/2003.

The Queer Eye episode with the Sox on it, which 2.0 is already obsessed with seeing, is going to air June 7. So let it rest for a while, honey. I'll put it in my Outlook calendar and we'll get someone to tape it.

The ladies of the Black Table evidently drink too much.

Crownover sent me Angry Bed Positions yesterday, which is kind of funny because the poor thing was in Urban Outfitters once with me and 2.0 when I picked up the Sexual Position A Day book. I wasn't even thinking. I think I really skeeved her out. But have you looked at that book ever? Half the time you need a chin-up bar, or three girls!

2.0 and I, for some reason, watched the WB 11 morning news the other day, instead of Good Morning America, like we usually do (Katie Couric makes my head explode). It's a local production, and seems to be manned mostly by people in their late-20s. Who appear to still be drunk from the night before. They had Nina Van Horn from Just Shoot Me on the day we were watching and she commented that it was like everyone just got back from clubbing all night and decided to throw a newscast together. I doubt I could watch this production every day, but it was immensely entertaining, and didn't even pretend to be news, like GMA tries to. Sorry, gang, but if you have four segments each Monday about the previous evening's Desperate Housewives, you lose the right to call yourself a news program.

Terrific animated .gif from America's Next Top Model here. I've never seen it, but we watched the Starlet for some reason the other night (laziness). The "You're fired" line? "Don't call us, we'll call you." I want there to be a Next Underworld Don reality show, where one of the lieutenants goes, "Funny how? Funny like a clown?!" and then shoots that week's loser in the head. I doubt that will ever happen, though.
