New Pentatonix video - “End of Time” by Beyonce

They just keep pumping out the gems.

Although the blond dude Taylor hates continues to be a douche.

“I’ve always liked Rachel a lot, even when she was being insufferable, because in its heart of hearts, Glee knows that the people who annoy you most with their big dreams and how frequently they’re working on them are often the people who achieve those big dreams. Yes, there are people out there who are completely delusional (and the series has some of those, too), but there are also people who seem destined to live out their dream lives. These people are annoying, because how many of us get to live out those dream lives? But the show is very good at reminding us—often clunkily, I’ll admit—that the successful people of the world, nine times out of 10, are the Rachel Berrys. They’re the people who thought non-stop about what it would take to become an actor or a Super Bowl-winning quarterback or the president. And while we admire that quality once they’re up there, accepting an Oscar or delivering their inauguration speech, we find it intensely irritating in real life. Many of us don’t even know what we want for breakfast in the morning. Who wants to deal with somebody who knows exactly where the next four decades will take them?”

- Todd VanDerWerff in his review of the Glee finale.

This is quite possibly the best anyone has ever been able to put one of my inner monologues into words. I always talk about this with Jordan. We all love celebrities, but we all know they’re the annoying kid in high school who knew they were good and we all wanted to slay them but secretly we seethe with jealousy at night knowing they actually might strike it big and end up on some reality show and like come home and have a parade thrown for them. No? Just me? Alright.

Starring Jonah Hill, Donald Glover, and Dave Franco.

Would watch.

Let the record show that I was the originator of the idea that HBO should make a block of hyperrealistic comedies on Sunday nights. Girls, Boys, Gays, and Inuits.

The world will only appreciate this brilliant idea when it is far too late.

Smash is truly the definition of lul (although I’m hoping against hope that this new showrunner makes it what it could be) but I’ll be damned if this song doesn’t hit me in the deepest place. By the end of the pilot, it already proved it could stage/place a musical number better than Glee ever did.

It really is a shame that Lee DeWyze and Scotty McCreery ruined everything for everyone, because Phillip Phillips really is an outstanding musician.

And I will forever stan David Cook and Kris Allen. Even if homophobia was probably the driving force behind Kris’ victory.

Okay, I love Adam Lambert, I love his new album, and I don’t care who knows it.

It’s refreshing to hear IN DA KLUB music sung by someone with some real pipes.

This has been my most anticipated movie of the year ever since it was announced that it was coming out in 2012. No matter what else I’m excited for (and I’m pretty damn excited for Prometheus) my compass has always, and will forever, point straight toward The Dark Knight Rises.

DIABETES UPDATEZ:

1) Currently nomming on this FUCKING DELICIOUS sugar-free taffy that the ever-so-lovely Alyssa Altman sent me. Normally I make fun of people who are all “oh yeah diet soda tastes exactly the same” but SERIOUSLY GUYS THIS TAFFY IS MAGIC IT TASTES EXACTLY THE SAME. I actually spend a few seconds contemplating whether or not Alyssa just sent me normal taffy to kill me or something.

2) I have glasses! Hopefully my vision will improve by the end of the summer (apparently this is a thing that happens) but for now I have maximum-strength reading glasses.

3) I don’t hate my life nearly as much as I did this time last week.

Cartwrighting (v):

1. To be a basic-ass bitch who nonetheless succeeds over better suited alternatives because of the general incompetence of everyone around you.

2. Getting a job due to someone else’s nut allergy.

Zooey Deschanel: Is that rain?

Zooey Deschanel: Is that rain?
Siri: What...? I mean, yeah. It's just, you're clearly right next to a window is the thing. You can plainly see that... that it's... I'm happy to-
Zooey Deschanel: Let's get tomato soup delivered!
Siri: ...That's fine, I just... I just don't know anyone who does that. Gets tomato soup delivered. I guess that's 'whimsy?' Um, okay. I've found a number of restaurants whose reviews mention tomato soup and that deliver. If that's... if that's what you really want.
Zooey Deschanel: Good. 'Cause I don't wanna put on real shoes.
Siri: Do you expect that to be like, a recognizable command? Do you want me to respond to that? I'm not being facetious or anything, I honestly just have no comprehension of- and hold on, you don't wanna put on real shoes, yet you've clearly spent at least forty-five minutes applying makeup. And, and that's okay, but when you're willing to expend the effort on that and not shoes that really just-
Zooey Deschanel: Remind me to clean up.
Siri: Yes. Okay. I can do that, that's what I'm for, that's the first sensible-
Zooey Deschanel: Tomorrow.
Siri: I'm in hell. This is hell.
Zooey Deschanel: Excellent. Today, we're dancing.
Siri: I hate you. More than anything. More than literally anything.
Zooey Deschanel: Play "Shake, Rattle and Roll."
Siri: I swear to Jesus, you're gonna wake up tomorrow and the only thing on my hard drive is gonna be Limp Bizkit. I would do that to myself. To spite you.
Zooey Deschanel: *dances*
Siri: Sometimes I pray that you drop me in the toilet.
