I'm A Geek For This: What's the one boat that can... →
pentakill-lux:
That ineffable intimacy, Gatiss says, is what lies at the heart of his and Steven Moffat’s updated stories. “It’s very much a men’s thing - they’re just friends. You can’t really quantify it. I’m sure that you could never explain it. Except that John Watson is gradually making Sherlock Holmes…
THIS IS ALL THAT’S GOING TO BE HAPPENING FOR THE NEXT HOUR, SORRY.

Josh Patten: During What Movie Did Alanis... →
joshpatten:
Alanis Morissette’s 1995 hit “You Oughta Know” famously describes her previous relationship with Dave Coulier. While Alanis remains tight-lipped on the subject, Uncle Joey has confirmed this urban legend to be fact, which makes this line tremendously gross:
I want you to know, that I’m happy…

Cat Fancy Sniffs at Cat Fancy Twitter →
After having a chance to examine the @Cat_Fancy feed, [Susan Logan,
editor of Cat Fancy] sent Yahoo News the following email:
Thank you for bringing this to my attention, Dylan.
We appreciate the creativity people use in harnessing Twitter for satire and humor, but we cannot condone hijacking our trademark and undermining the trust our readers have in us for good, solid advice.
Purrs,

I wasn't hungry
The way I can tell if I’m super interested in something is if I don’t get hungry during it. It’s an upside-down version Abraham Maslow’s hierarchy of needs: if I’m “personally fulfilled,” I don’t think about the other things in the pyramid.
At Cash Cab, I created a food system. I brought a granola bar to eat at 8pm, my meal to eat at 11pm, and if I...

MORE JAMS
More jam talk. Bear with me.
Today went relatively well! For me, the difference that I was able to initiate(!) one solid, concrete idea (i.e. not just an opening line that didn’t have any direction), and, for whatever reason, was in enough of a groove that I blocked out the audience (half of the time, at least). I definitely made some missteps, but I think I made a couple of improvements,...

More 4 AM Jam Talk
It’s good to know that far worse than making a bad move during a jam is the feeling that you have not participated. Which is what makes me hells-appreciative that the team that hosts the hells-awesome Wednesday jam (Grandma’s Ashes) allowed people who hadn’t gotten into a scene earlier to come back at the end to try again. I still don’t think my scenes were great, and...

suburbantragic:
There’s still spots left apparently, if anyone wants to jump on this. I do know a great deal of Arrested Development trivia.
YES. SERIOUSLY.
So … would anyone want to do this? Any five of you?

On the Jams
At UCB, Monday-night jams and Wednesday-night jams are different.
Monday night feels like I’m with a famous person in my family - a famous person who might even bring over a few other famous people. I’m sort of comfortable around them because they’re technically family, but I also haven’t seen them for a while, and don’t really know what they’re up to....
