Also, the sky is blue, the grass is green and Britney Spears needs a smack upside the head.

I have to work tonight when Heroes is premiering. Ah, the season of seeing half of my shows the first time they run a new episode and having to torrent the rest of them the next morning begins. *sighs*

Oh, and I'm not about to join bandom or anything (I still don't like the music enough to care, or at all, really), but Frank from MCR on the LA Ink commercial waiting for Kat Von D, saying, "I got bored, so I thought I'd make myself useful," and carrying around boxes is seriously endearing.

Also, I bought about twenty bucks in fashion magazines yesterday in preparation for my NaNo novel. I usually steer clear of them for the simple fact that ... well, really, who wants to stare at pretty clothes they'll never be able to afford? It's not any more fun when you read it pretending you have an unlimited budget and can have whatever you want.

Oh, and according to Cosmo, the number one thing that men keep private is, "We Masturbate ... a Lot!" That terrifies me, as it implies that the average Cosmo reader might be surprised by that statement. (The other terrifying thing was when Jess said, "Yeah, they can keep that private, 'cause I certainly don't want to see it," and I just kind of had to stand there biting my bottom lip and thinking, "Wait, who am I not watching again?" Seriously, how scary is it that out of the two of us, it's usually the virgin who's less sexually vanilla?)

Theoretically, my laptop is supposed to come home tomorrow. Maybe I should throw a party or something.

I'm honestly beginning to think that the longer a person stays a virgin, the kinkier they'll be when by the time they actually have sex. It was that way for me! By the time I first knocked boots with someone vanilla sex had become totally yawn-worthy. :|

Smack Britney Spears upside the head these days and she'll just fall over and twitch, maybe drooling a little as she does so.

I swear to pineapple upside down cake, Cosmo is written entirely by virgins.

Haha, I read that Cosmo secret list thinger. And thought the SAME thing. "That's the big secret? Really?" My coworker was unsurprised also.

[faith21.livejournal.com]

did any of the other things on the list induce a "wow, really?" or were they all that stupidly obvious?

[azurelunatic]

"I Google you." Wow, really?

[faith21.livejournal.com]

*snerk* The last guy I was dating admitted to doing that. (I thought it was cute.)

And yeah, shocker. Like nobody Googles each other.

[azurelunatic]

I am an efficient enough Googlestalker that I can actually find assorted things that no one would have thought I'd have been able to find, in very little time flat. Once some random guy wanted to know how to find a website that he'd seen a link to in a community he'd found by chance, and gave very little identifiable information about that community. I found it in twenty minutes. Of course, I couldn't tell him what it was, since it was way beyond the scope of service, but I found it.

That's a neat skill, you could probably charge for it.

[azurelunatic]

Probably. I could totally become a private internet detective, digging up crap on people's boring ex-boyfriends.

Cosmo. **eyeroll** What sort of research are you doing via fashion magazines? If you're looking for more, like, fashion world or actual fashion, ditch American magazines and go for Vogue in all its European incarnations. They've got a lot better coverage about what's going on in fashion rather than ... masturbation and orgasms. They carry them at Borders. If that's, y'know, what you're looking for.

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

Nah, I'm looking for equal parts fashion (hence the Vogues I did pick up) and vapid idiocy (hence the Cosmo). I figure if anything balances a Paris Hilton-esque mindset, that'll do it. :)

I hope that British Vogue, Italian Vogue and WWD were among your research materials. Those are the most important rags in women's fashion. Elle, Glamour, Cosmo, and sadly, even American Vogue sometimes, are often just a month or so behind the pulse of what is and isn't, causing American women to buy dumb doily-looking shawls months after their useful whimsy has expired.
