A Cartoonish Life

Like a fool, I actually watched that two-night "Kim's Fairytale Wedding" crap that E! aired only three weeks ago. Now let me get out of the way that I don't obsessively follow "Keeping Up With the Kardashians." I watch the show when it's airing in constant repeats during the day (because E! likes to marathon the crap out of that show) and there's nothing else to watch. And somehow I know about their business because E! just won't quit riding that cash pony. They're kind of in my face when I don't want them to, and I ask myself, "Why do I even know about this?!"

But like I said, yeah, I watched "Kim's Fairytale Wedding." Purely for laughs. And there were plenty. ( It gets kind of TL;DR. Basically, Kim is not a dog person, K-Humph called her out on her BS, I laughed my ass off and was honestly not surprised. )

That's what pisses me off the most about this. It's not necessarily the fact that she did indeed make cash off of this (which she is blatantly denying). I just feel that she didn't even try. Kris Humphries wasn't going to kiss her ass like everyone else does, and he certainly didn't want to end up like Bruce Jenner and Scott Disick, with his balls in his wife's enormous Hermes handbag.

....Just sayin'.

It's a "Things Holly's Loving Right Now" post!

--The casting of Tom Hardy as Bane and Anne Hathaway as Selina Kyle in the upcoming The Dark Knight Rises: Okay, the fact that BANE will be in the next Batman film already has me psyched up beyond belief!!

And people need to quit bitching about Anne Hathaway. I've never really had a problem with her, and Christopher Nolan is known for unconventional casting (hey, at least he didn't go with the very obvious Megan Fox or Angelina Jolie). And it's never really stated that she will be Catwoman in the casting, so it's possible her role as Catwoman will be downplayed like how Aaron Eckhart was being pushed mainly as Harvey Dent and no real mention of him as Two-Face was brought up.

And let's not forget how slightly disappointed I was when I saw Heath Ledger in that half-assed Joker makeup. Have faith, my friends.


--Everyone here will probably kill me for saying this, but I am really, really digging that new Britney Spears single!!



I haven't been this excited for something from Britney Spears for a LONG time. Now I can't wait for the music video. (I'm loving the bass and the dubstep!)


--Kiss My Face Peaches and Creme Ultra Moisturizer. Someone listed this as a recommendation over at the beauty101 community. Actually, one of the first recommendations was this stuff from Lush, but I checked the price of that and was all, "NOPE. Out of my price range." But we actually sell this Kiss My Face stuff at my job. A 16 fl. oz. bottle was a little over $10, and a bit pricey, but it's a big bottle. I've been using it for a week, and I'm already noticing a difference. My red spots from leftover zits are fading! YAY!

--Bath and Body Works' new tropical bodycare range. LOVING IT LIKE A FAT KID LOVES CAKE. And apparently, a lot of people I work with love how the Hawaii Coconut smells, too! Natasha said it reminds her of her vacation to Mexico, and Derek said it smells like one of the girls' fragrances at Hollister. Which he likes because I guess his girlfriend wears stuff like that. :) Next paycheck, I'm probably going to go back and stock up because HELLZ YEAH!! (The Bali Mango smells absolutely delicious, too!)

--The Last Exorcism. Kevin and I rented this last week and we really liked it! ( Cut for spoilers )

Like I said, very well pulled off. If you're looking for a good horror movie, and if you missed it in theaters, I recommend it.

Mom and I rented Bruno today and watched it, mainly because she really wanted to see it. That movie was so ridiculous, but I laughed my butt off. (Especially the part where he was...well, I won't go into details, but it involves genitals.)

After we turned the movie off, the news was on, and Adam Lambert had released a statement saying that he shouldn't have to "babysit" the nation's children. (In regard to his man-on-man kiss.) I agree with everything he says in defense of what he did. Like I said, everyone knows he's gay, and ABC should've realized that before they decided to book him to perform. Then Mom had to open up her trap and be all, "But he practically raped that guy's mouth onstage! I don't want to see that!"

.........We freaking just got done watching Bruno. And she actually said this. She watched all the (censored) gay sex and genital-flashing, but she's going to get her panties in a bunch over Adam Lambert kissing a male band member. I pointed out the hypocrisy in this, and told her, "If Lady Gaga. for example, had kissed a woman onstage that night, would you have a problem with that?" Mom said, "But she's a woman, no one cares if you see a woman kissing another woman. If you see a man kissing another man....well, that's just another story because it's wrong and gross!" And there's the double standard.



*tangent* Thanksgiving was crappy this year, thanks for asking. Could've been a hell of a lot better, if Dad would've gotten his ass out of the kitchen and just let me continue what I was doing and not have been a pain in the ass. I had him telling me what to do, I had Mom bitching at me what to do, I had instructions in the cookbook on what to do--who do I listen to?! Got REALLY angry at Dad, yelled at him, and stormed out of the house while telling him, "YOU think you know what to do?! YOU f*cking do it!" Drama queen move, or really agitated woman getting pissed off at people telling her what to do--your call. This all happened in front of Kevin, too; I was so embarrassed that he had to see that. During dinner, I was shooting Dad the death stare because he had royally pissed me off and ruined my appetite.

He later apologized, but I let him have it again. Apologizing really didn't make it any better, considering that I had the day off for Thanksgiving and after nine straight days of work, I just wanted to relax. And it all happened in front of Kevin, too.

I'm kind of glad they're leaving for Alabama soon. I don't think I'm going down to visit them during the holidays. I don't want to waste the gas money if all we're going to do is bitch and bicker while we're down there. And she can rely on Hunter for a ride home whenever he decides to go down, because I don't want to do it if she's just going to bitch the whole way like she did when we went down for Grandma Cozie's funeral.

They all really piss me off. They really do.

*semi-tangent* Didn't do any Black Friday shopping. For one thing, I have to wait for my next paycheck. For another thing....frankly, I did that about six or seven years ago for a $50 stereo at Target, and I nearly got trampled in the process. Never again. The people who go to do their insane early-morning shopping on Black Friday are cray-cray; they get violent and vicious and super-bitchy to the poor retail workers who are saints for putting up with it the way they do. Chances are, you won't get what you wanted if it's in small quantities. And is it really worth it to stand in line for 3-4 hours just for checkout?

I get this a lot anymore. Problem is, it's usually a toss-up of three particular actreses.

When I was still blonde, I got Katherine "Foot In Mouth" Heigl:



I never understood how people thought I looked like her, and if this was an insult or not because I don't find her to be particularly attractive.

I also get Miss Sookie Stackhouse herself, Anna Paquin:



(Only I don't have a huge gap in between my two front teeth like she does.)

And probably the one I get the most....ever since I was a teenager (and I still do) is "that girl who played Blossom's friend Six:"



So, in the event that I end up NOT dressing up as Jem for Halloween this year, I'm gonna try to get together some 90s-inspired clothing and go as Six. I will just need someone to be my BFF Blossom, so people will "get" it.



So, everyone else who reads this blog....which celebs do people say YOU look like?

Beyoncé's (aka "Sasha Boring") latest piece o' crap:



Too bad the song's kind of cool, because this video is BORING.

And now, Britney's:



I think I'm one of the few people that actually like it. It's different for her. I think it's getting bad reception from her fans because it's not what she'd normally do; it's not "shake my ass, flip my hair and do some half-assed arm-dancing, my fans will go nuts anyway." My only problem is that A) it's kind of boring, and B) it seems like a four-minute ad for her Candies clothing line promotion.


But seriously? I think I know why I'm so underwhelmed with these. This is what else I've been watching for the last couple of weeks:( Read more... )


Can you understand WHY I'm just not thrilled with Britney and Beyoncé currently?

We're never going to have anyone remotely close to being as amazing as Michael was. He went out on the top, as far as I'm concerned.




......I'm gonna curl up in my sock drawer and sleep for days.

There once was a man from Nantucket.....

BUCK FUTTER!!!!!

Guess who just turned 50?



Here's the 50th Anniversary Barbie:

Paris feels that she doesn't deserve to go to jail for what she did, which I think is bullshit. This is the voice of a overly spoiled brat who feels that she can do whatever she wants with no repercussions.

Now Hunter asked me what exactly she has to go to jail for (because he could really give a shit about Paris Hilton and doesn't pay attention to frivolous celebrity crap like this). First of all, her license had been suspended a while ago for something stupid she did while driving (I think she was caught speeding too many times). About six months ago, she was caught driving drunk while on this suspended license (which led to her giving the excuse, "I just wanted an In-And-Out burger."). This is why she was put on probation. Then a month or so ago, she was caught speeding again in LA at night without her headlights on, while she was on probation!

It's like she's been warned and slapped on the wrist before. You think she would've learned a lesson, but no. Now she has to go to jail because she didn't listen or pay attention the first few times.

What kills me is that she blamed her publicist, Elliott Mintz, because she didn't understand that she couldn't go driving while on probation. First of all...PARIS HILTON IS 26 YEARS OLD. THE SAME AGE I AM. How do you not understand what you can or can't do while on probation?! Hell, I've never been ticketed my whole life, and I think I would know better than not to drive on a suspended license in the first place. It's called COMMON SENSE. Second of all...How the hell do you blame your publicist for "not understanding that you can't drive while you are on probation"?! That's called pinning the blame on someone else. Paris is a dumb c*nt. At least when Nicole Richie got pulled over for going the wrong way on the 1-5, she admitted she wan't drunk, but she had indeed smoked a joint and took a Vicodin for her menstrual cramps. (Which is bullshit. Menstrual cramps when she has 1% body fat? *rolls eyes*) Nicole owned up to her own mistake. Paris just doesn't want to go to jail.

If Paris gets out of this jail sentence, I will lose all my faith in the judicial system, and I may contemplate moving out of the country.
