I was sneezing all day yesterday and I thought it was just allergies, but now I’m afraid I’m getting sick because I’m kinda achy and I’m even more snotty (sorry about referencing snot, I know that the last time I referenced snot people got grossed out, but I think I referenced snot more graphically that time, and this time I’m trying to be as casual and nonchalant and nongraphic as possible in my snot referencing as humanly possible), so I’m spending the day in bed.
But since I’m feeling sick and just planning on lying here in bed all day, I’m kinda bored and I’ve decided I want to have a “comment party”—whoever gets comment #100 wins.
Topics of discussion up for grabs:
--how Diem was totally robbed on MTV’s The Duel last night. (I am so mad at Aneesa. I was actually rooting for Aneesa before last night, but then she goes and lies to Diem and I was screaming at the television) (I know that most of you don’t watch The Duel, but I also know that the few of you readers who DO watch The Duel are as obsessed as I am, and I hope you are as incensed as I) (Steve? Marie? Bonnie?)
--the hotness of Daniel Craig (along with a confession: Casino Royale was the first James Bond movie I ever saw) (and then another confession: that last statement is partially false, because I’m pretty sure I saw one of the Pierce Brosnan Bond movies when I was in high school, but I don’t remember it at all, so I’ve decided to strike it from the record, and I definitely haven’t ever seen a Connery Bond film, so I think it’s okay for me to go around saying that Casino Royale is the first Bond film I’ve ever seen.
--now, I’m really bad at deciphering lyrics—like, reeeeeally bad—but at least once a week someone comes to my blog after googling the phrases “Bryan Adams” and “looking to me eyes” and as bad as I am at deciphering lyrics, I don’t understand what anyone might think “looking to my eyes” is supposed to mean. Maybe that’s why they’re googling it and coming to me for answers. But I don’t have any answers other than: it’s “look into my eyes.”
-- It seems like they’re handing out national holidays right and left these days, (or there was the one, at least) (and I’m not saying Ford doesn’t deserve one) (he totally deserves one) (in fact, I think his death should have gotten more attention than it did) (because remember when Reagan died? That was all you saw on every station for what felt like weeks—it was all Reagan this and Reagan that—and I think Ford got short shrift compared to Reagan) (hey, where does te phrase “short shrift” come from, anyway?) and I want to declare today the National Gia Does Not Have Rabies Day. Yes, her quarantine is over! (Actually, it’s not officially over until the end of the day, and the Animal Control woman should be coming by sometime this afternoon to give us our walking papers.)
--Speaking of Gia, any suggestions on how I can get her to stop licking her bunghole?
--how great is the word “bunghole”? I think it’s my favorite synonym for “anus.”
--I just sneezed and a huge loogie flew out of my mouth onto the couch and it was really gross.
--Britney Spears’ vagina.
--Joe Chandler is a punk.
--Apparently Danica McKeller (who played Winnie on The Wonder Years) wants to be on the next season of Dancing With the Stars. I have a feeling she’d be a really good casting choice, actually, because who doesn’t want to watch Winnie Cooper dance? She’s totally hot (I’m not as much of an expert of female hotness as I might be on male hotness, but I think Danica McKeller’s gotta be almost as hot as Daniel Craig) (right?) (or am I wrong here?) and she’s totally smart (I mean, she solved a math theorem and they named it after her) and she’s gotta be more fun to watch on the dancefloor than, say, Harry Hamlin. I think the next Dancing With the Stars cast should be made up entirely of former child stars. Like Wilson Cruz—that’s actually a great idea—if you work for Dancing With the Stars and you’re reading this, steal that idea—NOW—get Wilson Cruz on your show—I remember back in the mid-90’s when we went to the AIDS Dance-A-Thon at Universal Studios, Wilson Cruz was hot off of My So-Called Life and he was one of the hosts of the Dance-A-Thon and he was an awesome dancer—and then, of course, if you need any more proof of that, you can just watch that one episode of MSCL, the Happiness Dance episode, the one that Brian Krakow narrates, when Ricky dances with Delia Fisher at the end of the episode and the whole world (or at least the few thousand of us who were watching) was all like, hello. (Uma, I know you’re reading this right now and you’re thinking “why is Erik going on and on and on about Dancing With the Stars and he still hasn’t written the post he promised to write about the Staples Center show, but I’m sorry, my nose is filled with snot and this random post came out first because I really want to have a comment party) (of course, it’ll be really sad if I’m lying here in bed and no one comes to my comment party, but c’est la vie if that happens) (oh, and wait, speaking of Delia Fisher, I was watching this random documentary in the middle of the night last week about all of the child actors who were ever in Annie on Broadway and there was this one actress, Senta Moses, talking about what it was like to play an orphan in the show, and as she was talking I suddenly realized that she played Delia Fisher and she looked great and it made me want Senta Moses to be on every TV show ever, because she was great, and I can’t believe she was only in three episodes of MSCL because she definitely made a really big impression, but I don’t think she should be on the Former Child Stars season of Dancing With the Stars because she’s not really a big enough name)
--Oh, but while I’m on my rant about former child stars, have you seen this cracked out Corey Haim video??? (if you read Defamer, then you’ve probably seen it because they wrote a post about it a couple of days ago) (I can’t watch the whole video—it makes me too sad) (how can you go from Lucas to this?) (and Lost Boys is soooo not “still there,” Corey—sorry—it was great in its own way, and all, but I think your best performance, other than the one in Lucas, was your performance in License To Drive)
Okay, I think those are enough topic suggestions to get a comment party started.

#100, gimme my pony!
Jesse, you have to work sooooo much harder for the pony.
so, it seems kinda slow over here at your comment party. Maybe Gia should do her bunghole trick?
Yeah, Gina, my comment party hasn't really started yet. It's kinda like when you throw a party and you tell people to arrive at 7pm, but no one shows up until 9pm and things aren't really swinging until 10 or so. Except I didn't even tell anyone about this party, so I'm just waiting for people to happen to stop by. And now I kinda want to take my snotty nose over to the movie theater and see Dangerous Minds 2. I mean, Freedom Writers.
And the bunghole thing isn't so much a trick as it is a lick.
#4...ok this game is boring
I'm leaving this comment party and going to WritesThingsBetterCommentParty over on LiveJournal.
Jesse:
1. You weren't number 4, you were number 5.
2. And you'd better not start an anti-Erik blog too, like Joe freaking did. No fair. (His name should be Hoe Freaking instad of Joe Chandler.) (I didn't even mean to misspell his first name, that was an accident.) (Why am I obsessed with Joe Chandler, he's not even at this comment party.) (Sorry, Jesse, this comment is supposed to be about you.)
3. I've decided that Daniel Craig is hotter than Jeff Probst and he's hotter than that one midget who I thought was really hot.
You have not seen James Bond until you have seen Sean Connery as James Bond. Rent yourself Dr. No and From Russia With Love immediately. Such hotness! Oh, and Diem wasn't the only one robbed last night: we were robbed of more time watching CT becoming much much more adorable (as if that were possible) because he's in love---if he'd only do something about that poofy hair of his. Don't you love the way Aneesa reacted like she was so forlorn and surprised by Diem classily telling her to buzz off when Aneesa tried to apologize. Like a hug would make it all go away. Sheesh. LOVE the drama!
DOUG, I know I know, I need to check out some Connery bond. I will check out the two that you recommended. But do you think Connery is hotter than Daniel Craig? Because DC was really out of control hot in Casino Royale.
Re: The Duel, I used to think CT was such a tool, but he's completely won me over on The Duel. His whole courtship of Diem, the three week wait for a kiss, the first kiss on that cliff, how he helped her prep for the Duel, his pep talks with her. He's a good guy, poofy hair and all.
And I was sooooo annoyed with Aneesa. Um, that was the worst moment to try to apologize to Diem. Diem was still shaking with tears from that physically painful loss. Let her catch her breath! Let her get a hug from CT! Ahhhh!
I haven't yet seen the Craig Bond (I keep typing Bong--!!!!!) and I know I know I'll get to it but getting myself to a theater is hard for this broken bod so I may have to wait for the DVD. Anyway, from photos (including nudes!) I've seen of Craig, the two are neck in neck (someting I'd like to see) in terms of hotness but Connery is cooler I think in terms of presence and Craig seems warmer, but I can't tell without seeing the film. And as far as CT is concerned, I used to despise him and lust after him all at the same time when he was on Real World; that kiss with Diem, though, the buildup and all that went with it was like a breakthrough: I had no more hate for him, just all this lusty lust.
Doug, of course I can't compare either because I haven't seen the Connery bond movies (that's funny that we're both debating which Bond is hotter and we've both only seen the opposite Bonds), but I'm certain when you see the Craig Bond you'll find him hotter than you even think he is now. Because I knew Daniel Craig was hot before I'd seen the Casino Royale--I'd seen him in other movies, etc.--but I had no idea until I saw the movie how truly hot he actually is. It's crazy. And the movie's great. I was sitting on the edge of my seat and I actually yelled at the scream a couple of times. (I saw the movie in Burbank and if you've ever seen a movie in Burbank then you know that people screaming at the movie screen at Burbank theaters is the norm) (but it's not specifically the norm for me) (I just couldn't help it)
So who do you want to win The Duel? I wanted Aneesa to win after the whole Robin debacle (when Robin said those awful out-of-nowhere things about her race and sexuality), but after Aneesa's lie to Diem, I'm not rooting for her anymore. It's a toss-up between Svetlana and Jodi, now that D is gone. I'll root for Svet since she's the underdog and she's dominated in Duel matches. (Though I think it was weak when they DQ'd Beth--Svet shoulda gone home that night, the Bethinator got a foul deal.)
As far as the guys go, I definitely don't want Brad to win. (He should have supported Aneesa during the aforementioned Robin debacle, but instead he picked Robin at the end of that episode to "stay true to his original cast mate." Whatever, lame-o.) And it's kind of a toss-up between CT and Wes for me because even though Wes is a total tool, I got a soft spot for him after seeing that heartfelt tearful proposal to Johanna over the phone, and he's impressed me with his skill at the challenges. And then of course CT has also been wicked good at the challenges.
Of course, I wish Derrick could win, but c'est la vie. Hopefully next challenge.
You know I really can't say who I want to win. I don't even think in those terms when I'm watching the show. It's all about the interpersonal drama and until you asked me that I actually forgot that all of these people are clawing their way to winning some big money prize. Plus, I missed a big gap of episodes for one reason or another. Having said that, Wes should win absolutely NOTHING. He's just so yucky. I guess I'd want CT for the men ('cause then he and Diem can live happily ever after)and Jodi for the women. Are we the only people at this comments party? I'll stick around to see if you've got a reply then I'm off to rest my back. Toodles!
I forget my coat, so I'm not staying...and I think you're in love with JC, and I don't mean Jesus Christ!
Doug, usually I root for the people who will keep the drama going...that's why I was hoping Beth would stay longer...because she knows that it is her job to BRING IT and boy does she make sure it's been broughten.
I don't know how Wes has won me over this season (I used to DETEST him), but somehow he has.
And yeah, we're the only people at this comments party, but it's okay. Actually, Jesse wants to hang out, but he's too cool to be caught at a comments party with only two people, so he made up that excuse about forgetting his coat to come back (see above).
And Jesse, I'm not in love with JC, I just like to egg him on because he tends to comment more frequently when he gets egged on. Maybe the fact that I'm concerned about how often he comments betrays a secret, sublimated love. But he hasn't bothered to show up to my comment party, so whatever love was there is gone now.
Jesse's never going to get that pony if he keeps that up. Okay, I'm going. Toodles for real this time!
Heh heh...my name is Cornholio...I need t.p. for my bunghole!
Verification: Las Vegas was your sexiest adventure indeed!
Doug, Jesse totally has an attitude problem.
Toodles.
drc, so are you saying you prefer Daniel Craig?
is this where the party is?
i like this one: ituiui
it reminds me of eskimos
Joe, you showed up at the party! It's kinda dead though. Sorry.
I really set myself up with the whole "winner is the first one to get to #100" thing. Ah well.
a) i watched the ENTIRE corey haim video.
b) i really miss the 80s. i think the kids 20 years younger than us should be far-removed enough by now to unknowingly repeat another totally unique, bizarre decade in pop-culture when they become teenagers. i hope so, but cause pop-culture-wise, everything's been a little bit boring ever since.
c) i was surprised to just imdb corey haim and find out he has actually worked semi-steadily since that video was taped, and also that he was once engaged to a woman.
d) i think i can speak for all of us and say there is nothing better than the feeling of dolphins swimming through our bodies when we kiss someone. it's so universal.
e) you should really, really watch the entire video.
f) if you do watch it again, in total, like you absolutely have to do now, because I DARE YOU, you may notice that corey says something about everyone having their own rhythm almost EXACTLY as he goes completely out of rhythm.
g) you should also watch the New Kids on the Block tour video where they're all sitting around philosophizing about the lyrics of "Step by Step".
h) i just started capitalizing for the very first time in this thread when i said New Kids on the Block. i'm going to try not to analyze that any deeper.
i) i have to go to a birthday party now.
Christy:
a) i am very impressed.
b) incredibly uniquely bizarre is a good way to describe the 80s. i think the next incredibly uniquely bizarre decade (the 10s?) should be all about mock-futurism. Like, inspired by The Jetsons. Lots of robots and metallic clothing.
c) well, he did have that bad period of time where he was selling his teeth on ebay to pay his bills, but yeah, i think he's done a lot of straight to video stuff. And surprisingly, no porn.
d) did corey say the thing about dolphins, because when i read that in your comment i Laughed Out Loud really hard and then i had to read it again and i laughted even harder. (um, "laughted"?)
e) okay, i will.
f) okay OKAY i'm watching the whole thing NOW!
g) this sounds brilliant, is it on youtube? it must be. everything is.
h) NKOTB rock, that's why you capped them.
i) have fun!
Oh I used to love Corey Haim! I wonder what ever happened to him? Hm... might have to do some looking...
Rebecca, he and Corey Feldman are developing a reality-based improv show, a la Curb Your Enthusiasm, about two out of work actors named Corey who live together.
Wait, what?
I'm sick too. But I'm at work.
LF
I turned 30 on Friday.
LF
It was rad.
LF
We went roller skating.
LF
It was more fun than I thought it would be.
LF
And now that I am 30, I am so, so smart. I have unlocked the secrets of the universe.
LF
Is that 100 yet?
LF
Someone came to my comment party and stayed a while! Thank you Lindsay Lindsay!
HAPPY THIRTIETH BIRTHDAY, btw!
I want to roller skate on my thirtieth. That sounds like the raddest.
Oh and I'm sorry you're sick. And that you're at work. I had insomnia last night and watched TV until 4am and got up at 10am and I feel that haze. You know the haze? The didn't-sleep-much haze.
And we are still remarkably far away from 100 (if you're going to dream, you should always dream big, that's the way I look at it), but you helped us get much closer.
thank ye kindly.
someday. someday we will make it.
LF
oh, 100, i see you on the horizon. slow and steady wins the race.
LF
step by step...inch by inch...
--erik
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0036860/
I had to google that, but I found it. The best part of the plot summary is "the stooges marry the girls." they ALL marry ALL of them? life was just simpler then.
LF
I love that you googled it and found the reference. I think it's actually from an old vaudeville routine, even before the Stooges, and then the Stooges probably did it in that movie (which, yes, has a great plot summary) (I loved the Stooges when I was about 8-years-old).
The "step by step, inch by inch" routine was also in an episode of I Love Lucy, and that's where I know it from.
--erik
at first i thought you were referencing a martika song.
LF
this one:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-LmdF1UDtB0
LF
she was on kids incorporated. did you ever watch that?
LF
because fergie from the freakin' black eyed peas was the little blonde girl.
strange.
LF
i LOVED kids incorporated. it was like morning crack. if it was on in the morning.
when you said "step by step" i thought first of the sitcom with suzanne somers who just lost her malibu beach house.
the SECOND thing i thought about was the NKOTB step-by-step tour video where they're all philosophizing about taking steps.
it's been 15 years since i watched it (maybe i can get my mom to mail it to me and we can have a viewing party!), but it's seriously something like,
"There are like...all these...steps." "Yeah, steps." "Steps, right. And you have to take them *step by step*." "By step, by step." "Like, steps." "You know?" "Steps." "Steps."
jktgmc
just kidding to get more crack
(what!?)
ahhhhh, i went out for a bit and i missed Comment #50!
a couple things:
1. i don't know martika. who the frig is martika??? i will have to watch your youtube link.
okay, DAMN YOUTUBE. (actually, don't, i love them too much.)
they are down for a maintanence until 10 pm, which is in 50 minutes, so i'll have to wait to watch the martika video.
But:
OMG, yes, yes, YES--i loooooooved Kids Incorporated. So much.
oh, wait, hello google: martika sang Toy Soldiers! Yes! Great song! (i mean, as far as songs about toy soldiers go.) That is so not what I was referencing. At all.
But still:
I loooooved Kids Incorporated. Someone I went to high school with (Jason V, for those of you who I went to h.s. with) was semi-famous (at least, in my eyes) (for about five minutes) for having auditioned for Kids Incorporated and being *this close* to getting cast on the show. Yeah, I know, I know, so lame, but I watched that show religiously.
(However, as religiously as I watched it, my memories of the show are more like vague shards, fragments, images--was there ever magic on the show? Like, I have images of the kids cleaning that diner and then making wishes and suddenly they'd be onstage singing their little hearts out.)
Even though I barely remember the show, I could totally sing you the theme song.
"Kiiiiiids Incorporated...
K!
I!
D!
S!
Looks like we've maaaaade it...we're kids in...cor...por...aaaaaaaated."
fergie pees her pants.
lots.
(oh, that long comment was me, erik) (i don't know why i feel the need to say that it was me when it's probably obvious it was me, but i still feel the need)
christy, i agree with you:
Kids Incorporated was morning crack.
yes.
And you mentioned that Step by Step video before. I MUST watch it.
iofsqu
if only for secret queer undulations
100?
doh. i can't believe you folks came back to the party.
LF
it's really anybody's 100th comment now.
LF
except that it's mine.
LF
unless somebody decided to get it during my doctor's appointment later this afternoon.
LF
unless somebody decides to get it during my doctor's appointment later this afternoon.
LF
or during the new episode of gray's anatomy that will FINALLY be on tonight.
LF
i mean grEy's anatomy.
That's confusing.
LF
Lindsay, it makes me so happy that you're taking my comment party seriously and actively going after comment #100.
Thank you for that.
--EP
And I am so excited about there being a new ep of Grey's tonight. It feels like it's been months.
--EP
And Joe Chandler is SO not going to get comment #100. Saying the number 100 does not get you Comment #100.
oh, greys anatomy. how i love thee. i yelped oul loud when addison and kirev (sp) almost kissed. and what's wrong with mcsteamy? do you think addison had an abortion the year before andhe's down about it? i bet i bet i bet.
LF
Hey, #69! That's almost a hundred, isn't it?
Anyway, you don't know me, but I'm doin' my small part to help you get to 100...just 'cuz you mentioned Senta Moses in your post (yay Beakman's World!)
--Grev
Hey Grev, 69 isn't 100, but it probably deserves a prize of its own.
--erik
Lindsay, oooooo it was so good last night. The moment with Addison and Karev was my favorite moment too. And George talking to his dad was great. And I loved George and Callie so excited about the pee. And Izzie at the bank.
I was wondering what's up with McSteamy too. I think your baby guess might be right. We'll see!
--erik
my first boss and my gynocologist share the same birthday - today. what does it all mean, universe?
LF
gynEcologist. sheesh.
LF
Yeah, I didn't reply to your comment earlier because I was embarrassed that you'd spelled the gyne word wrong.
I hope your first boss and your gynecologist aren't the same person. Assuming they aren't, happy birthday to both of them.
#74.
--erik
oh my god. how amazing is grey's anatomy!? that moment when meredith's dad comes out and says "meredith!"
grey's is the best show ever in the history of television, i'm sure of it.
and how glad are we that rob lowe turned down dr. mcdreamy!? SO GLAD. at least i am.
okay there is this "exposed" marathon on mtv right now, i've been watching it for the past hour...i'm trying to pull myself away because it's going to be on until 8 PM.
have you seen it? they date two guys with lie detection software, then they come clean about it and have to pick someone...
THEY ALWAYS PICK THE BIGGER LIAR.
except the one girl, and that was just mind-boggling, because the liar was so much better. but that was like the ONLY time that the liar was so much better.
pilfered unknowns made mary really fart
Okay, Christy, there was a marathon of that dumb show last week and I totally watched four hours of it and I know EXACTLY who you are talking about re: the one girl who picked the guy who was telling the truth instead of the other guy who was hotter.
And it IS mindboggling that they always pick the bigger liar. It's weird, but true.
I was finally able to sign into blogger on my own blog again!!!
yay! so glad you can comment again!
i love the standard too that if the bigger liar comes clean with his lies, and then the one who just said maybe one little lie DIDN'T come clean, the big liar is suddenly exonerated.
our heater broke yesterday, i swear it is 40 degrees inside my apartment.
okay, so i think there was just a match made in heaven.
"Do you think Jesus has something to do with the lottery?"
"Yes, I do." (telling the truth)
this reminds me of a newlywed game episode where the question was,
"Which side of your house does the sun rise on?"
And they both said, "The south." And so they won.
dude, she just picked a VIRGIN who lied about ever wishing he was a woman...over a super hot and mostly honest guy.
83!
she is SO stupid!
i was talking about the virgin picking girl.
oh, and by the way, i've totally seen that episode. and i screamed at the tv when she picked him. it didn't make any sense.
and oh my god, the giant gray truck parked right in the middle of the sunflower field? yeah, no one's going to notice.
now that the sun is down, it feels like it is 30 degrees in my apartment.
but it's probably not, or my water would be turning to ice.
1. Rob Lowe as McDreamy would have totally killed Greys. I just cannot take him seriously in any role.
2. I think the baby doc and Karev are just wrong! She's desperate because she screwed up her life so bad. He definitely doesn't need any help screwing up his life.
3. I'm glad Callie and George got back together. Yea!!!
4. K.I.D.S. Incorporated? I think my boys used to watch that. I don't really remember it. Well, I take that back. I remember lots of long hair and sweat bands and spandex. Geez...was that in the 80's or what?
5. This is only comment 89. 11 more to go!
6. It snowed like 8 inched last night and the temperature outside is 19 degrees Fahrenheit with a wind chill of 9 degrees. Wanna trade?
7. akfvvu: A Kauai Fun Vacation Vastly Underwhelms
DRC,
1. i sooooooooooooooooo agree with you about Rob Lowe.
2. i used to be annoyed by Callie, but now I love her.
3. I am in favor of Addison and Karev getting it on. I don't see them being a couple--they don't seem right for each other--but I think they'd be a sexy duo for a few episodes. Addison is actually one of my favorite characters. I love her.
4. I'm afraid the comment party will move to the archives before we reach #100! Ahhhh!
this comment thread is sad like an anemica baby.
i looked in the archive to see how it was going, and it was like a little baby i was looking at saying, "i hope it lives through the winter, the poor dear."
but then i realized i'm not an eighty-year old irish grandmother.
This comment thread IS sad. Because it's so close to 100. And I'm afraid it will never get there. I'm certainly not going to take the 100th comment because it shouldn't be mine to take. So I wonder if anyone will ever get it? Hm.
Oh, and did you mean "anemic"? Or is there something known as an "anemica baby" that I've just never heard of? I actually really like the term "anemica baby" and I hope it IS something I've never heard of. Some sad something.
I meant anemic. But I like anemica baby, too. We should figure out a condition that affects babies to attribute that to.
And I'm not going to keep making comments because it would be sad, like a tree falling in a forest and no one there to hear it.
Okay Grey's is on!
still not to 100 :(
today is the day it's going to happen.
lindsay lindsay
Last night i got food poisoning and barfed three times. today I am running a low fever, but I came to work anyway (I wasn't running the fever before I left the house).
Lindsay
Normally I would milk a sick day out of this. But tomorrow I am leaving for a nine day vacation to Panama, so I can't really afford not be here.
I guess.
lindsay
I think this might be the one(hundred). but I will pad with more messages, just in case.
xoxoxo
Lindsay
the thing is, the counter on the comments doesn't update very quickly, so one can never be sure.
Lindsay
that's why i must persevere. until i am sure i have made it into triple digits.
lindsay
it is finished.
