Marge Simpson has graced the cover of Novembers PLAYBOY!

It's really to celebrate the 20th anniversay of The Simpsons but I say "Here! Here!" to having someone with style and class on the front of the issue!  Join me in celebration and also to regurgitate your best "Simpson" moments and please, leave Ashlee and Jessica ones outta this one!  HARDY HAR!

 

 

This is the first time animation has hit the front of this classy(smutty) and stylish (controversial) magazine.  Whenever I think of Playboy all I hear is football hooligans shouting "Get your tits out for the lads!!" but maybe that's too shortsighted of me.  Marge brings the whole game of Playboy up a level.

 

Hope Homer likes it cos lets face it - we've all had the hots for Marge at some stage in our lives....

 

 

In no particular order:

1. Mischa Barton had out her wisdom teeth and made her put on weight - which I say is a winner BTW

2. MJ died.  So horrendously gutted.

3. I have sported a number of kidney infections which have made me somewhat less sociable and more interested in where the nearest toilet is at all times.

4. Patrick Stump remains as sexually attractive as he did in 2003, if not more.  Which needs to be said.

5. I finished watching all of House M.D.  (Good one Nessa)

6. Stu got more amazing.

7. The sun made me go down the beach a heck of a lot, as long as I knew where the toilet was.

8. I officially have tan lines

   where my wedding bands are! Waited so long for these!!

9. I have started taking Omega 3 and B6 vitamins.  For funzies!

10. I have missed you a moderate amount.  Some more than others.

Anyone care to update me with their lives/online lives in a numerical list.  I'm into numbers at the moment....

 

Also - look at these awesomely horrifying photos!  I was such a moody crapper!!

Available here to listen!

How excited are we?  It's like a monumental crescendo and at the end - I might actually die. OMG OMG OMG...

A peculiar statement indeed however in context completely articulate. Read more Patrick Stump awesomeness...

The teenagers inside us have been 'squeeing' since we had the confirmation that our favourite trio of mayhem and good times admitted their undying love for each other and finally REUNITED!! Let's reflect, Blink-style

Yes my friends, ladies and gentleman who are admirers, the beautiful Greta from Hush Sound will be playing a solo gig on March 8th at Hotel Cafe (a little hot spot for songbirds) in LA. If you need convincing...

1: She had made me spit out the contents of my mouth before from our AIM chats.

2: She teaches me stuff about American Tax laws...

3: Her Vlogs are just always so entertaining and I’m not sure whether they’re meant to be....

4:She believes in Pop.  (someone needs to)

5: I once had a dream that Bree and I had wine and cheese crackers whilst talking about Coldplay.  (I don’t think I told her that yet....)

6: She is a double of Kary Byron from Mythbusters except Bree is probably better known. (technicially is shouldn’t be a reason I love her more but it always makes me giggle when I see mythbusters.

7: Her allergies although unpleasant – make for entertaining twittering.  Mostly defaming drug companies...and allergists....

8: She is awesomely talented and easily one of the most insightful people I know.

9: When I went away for 6 months, she made it ok to come back.

10: Bree always gives everyone a chance.  If she believes in you, then that’s it. 

Thank you Bree.

Some things around here are just bad....And its those things that make me not want to be here. :(

I have this motto that if you can't find 10 things about someone you like then you don't know them as well as you should. It's tried and tested. I have less than 10 friends on this place who cared less if I was here or not but those 10 do care. So starting with Alex (frostedglass), I'm going to reveal the 10 reasons why I adore them.


1: She was the person who I trusted in a long time to get to know. And she was thus, my first friend on Buzznet.
2: She has these most adorable curls!
3: Alex is from Austria which is a fact that needs merits a number on my list in itself.
4: She is incredibly intelligent and a gifted writer (although she'll deny it).
5: She instilled confidence in me that no-one else bothered to do.
6: Alex attracts a wide variety of strange yet loveable men wherever she goes.
7:
8: She introduced me to Charlywhich to be frank, I'm still not sure how I feel about.
9:She has an unbiased taste in books which tells a lot about a person.
10: She's a fitness freak but I'm not sure why because that's just stupid to me. lol

So there you go, my first one. I'll be doing more so keep an eye out for yours. That's if I know you well enough for you to be my friend.

I had to have some fun with MACROS. Yes I don't know why but I have to say it in capitals for some reason. I get a sick sense of satisfaction out of the smallest things...as you will see...

Biscuit = Patrick Stump

This young gentleman has been up to quote a bit of mischief this year.  RollingStone Magazine saw fit to recognise the good work he did in the name of collaborating (which I think is another way of saying "Add me to this track and it will be better" but anywayz)

Here's a snippet of it:

"This Is Why He’s Hot: He’s a slave-driver. “For as little as he is, dude’s pretty fucking militant,” says GCH frontman Travis McCoy. “He’ll be like, ‘Travis, hit this note!’ and I’ll be like, ‘Just tune that shit!’ and he’ll say, ‘Just fuckin’ be a man and hit that shit!’ I got four feet on the dude, and he’s putting me in check.”

Read the whole article here

Anyhoo's here's a formallist of all the collabs I could think of for this year ONLY before you all say!

1. The Cab "One of THOSE Nights"
2. The Cab "I'm A Wonder"
3. TI - "Out In The Cold"
4. KristeenYoung "That's What It Takes Dear"
5. Gym Class Heroes "Blinded By The Sun"
6. The Roots "Birthday Girl"
7. Tyga "Don't Regret It Now"
8. Fall Out Boy (j/k)
   

Which one was the greatest?

And who would you love to see him collab with this year?

I don’t really specialise in a genre of entertainment. I don’t watch TV in general but slowly work my way through series of TV series via an unnamed online TV channel..... This year, I worked through One Tree Hill, Greys Anatomy and I am about to start Prison Break. Nomnomnom! I think there's a theme, I'm a sucker for the narration type programmes so here goes.

Here a few of my favourite lines from those shows:

One Tree Hill

1. Lucas: You ever look a picture of yourself, and see a stranger in the background?. It makes you wonder how many strangers have pictures of you. How many moments of other peoples life have we been in. Were we a part of someone's life when their dream came true or were we there when their dream died. Did we keep trying to get in? As if we were somehow destined to be there or did the shot take us by surprise. Just think, you could be a big part of someone else’s life, and not even know it.

2. Peyton: Someone once told me, every song has an ending Jake, but is that any reason not to enjoy the music.

3. Peyton: At this moment there are 6,470,818,671 people in the world. Some are running scared. Some are coming home. Some tell lies to make it through the day. Others are just now facing the truth. Some are evil men, at war with good. And some are good, struggling with evil. Six billion people in the world. Six billion souls. And sometimes -- all you need is one.

4. Skills: “I’m just saying, does this guys satisfy her?’
Nathan: “Dude, did you just ask if my Mom was satisfied?’

Grey’s Anatomy

5. Meredith Grey: Okay, here it is, your choice... it's simple, her or me, and I'm sure she is really great. But Derek, I love you, in a really, really big pretend to like your taste in music, let you eat the last piece of cheesecake, hold a radio over my head outside your window, unfortunate way that makes me hate you, love you. So pick me, choose me, love me.

6. Preston Burke: So, I have a question to ask. I checked the schedule and I noticed that both you and I are off tonight. I made reservations. I have a favorite restaurant.
Cristina Yang: None of those were questions.

7. Christina : Ow. Ow. Ow.
Happy Resident : Am I hurting you?
Christina : No you're touching me.

8. Derek Shepherd: This is a good day to save lives. Let's have some fun.

9. Derek Shepherd: [to a patient and rapist whose victim bit off his penis] I have good new and bad news. The good news is that we managed to stop the bleeding. The bad news is that we gave your penis to the cops.

10. Bailey: I may be forty-seven weeks pregnant. I may be on bed rest. I may not be able to see my own feet. But I AM Dr. Bailey. I hear every thing. I know every thing. I’m watching each and every one of you. And I will return.

11. George (to Meredith): You don't get to choose. I know you've been going through a bad time. I know you miss Shepard. And I know that your life has, admittedly, been pretty unpleasant these days. You get points for breathing in and out. You get to be a little selfish. But you don't get to choose a dog over me... I'm George. I sleep down the hall from you. I buy your tampons. I have held your hand, every time you asked. I've earned the right to be seen. To be respected. To not have you think of me, as less than a dog that you got at the pound. So, I'm not moving out. Whether you like it or not, I'm staying.
12. Izzie: (to Cristina) Are you afraid Burke will realize George makes a better girlfriend than you?


13. CRISTINA: "McSexy?"
MEREDITH: "That's not right."
IZZIE: "McYummy?"
CRISTINA: "Mmm... no."
MEREDITH: "McSteamy."
CRISTINA: "There it is!"
IZZIE: "Yup."
GEORGE: "Allow me to choke back some McVomit."

14. MEREDITH: [narrating] "After careful consideration and many sleepless nights, here’s what I've decided. There's no such thing as a grown-up. We move out, we move away from our families. But the basic insecurities, the fears and all the old wounds just grow up with us. Just when you think life has forced you to truly become an adult, your mother says something like that. We get bigger, taller, older. But, for the most part, we're still a bunch of kids, running around the playground, trying desperately to fit in."

15. ADDISON: "Ah, what have we here? A gathering of men outside a delivery room. How mid-century of you."

16. MIRANDA: "What are you people doing out here?"
RICHARD: "Are you alright? Can I get you anything?"
MIRANDA: "Hmm. Well, a boy the size of a 10-pound bowling ball is trying to work it’s way out of my body. Can you get me something for that? Can you get me a new vagina?"
RICHARD: "Uh... well..."
MIRANDA: "I didn't think so."



Hey Earl

17. "I hope you get nut cancer."- Joy Darville in Joy's Wedding

18. "Ain't no use running, fool! I know where your mama parks your house!"
- Earl Hickey in Pilot

19. "Look at all those people in suits, Earl. It's just like when Ted from Bill & Ted put on his magic sunglasses and went into the Matrix."
- Randy Hickey in Stole P's HD Cart

20. "I can't believe there's a hole behind this picture. That's a relief. Last week it was banging on the wall and I thought Jesus was mad at me for putting that Darwin fish on the back of the car. I guess it was just windy."
- Darnell in BB

21. "Nice. You kiss your illegitimate children with that mouth?"
- Earl Hickey in Joy's Wedding

I made a video for you.

Despite the obvious injuries of throwing your head around a crowded room, headbanging and the risk that it imposes have been heavily (pun intended) researched. It's been found that headbanging strongly increases the chance of a 'whiplash' injury and also strokes.  The research was mathmatically investigated and also physically, with professors attending local dives to see for themselves just what headbanging entails.  They come up with an interesting theory:

The faster the song, the more dangerous the headbanging becomes. 

I'm tickled by the fact that so much research went into it - just ask all the kids after most FBR shows and they'll tell you.  I mean really....Did you have to bring math into it?

The conclusion is this - the faster you headbang, the more likely your brain is going to bounce around in your skill so just think about that for a moment.  They also list preventative measures:

"The interventions to minimise injury are intriguing and the researchers elaborate further on what they mean by replacing heavy metal with adult-orientated rock. They list artists such as Michael Bolton, Celine Dion, Enya and Richard Clayderman, and then close by calling for future randomised controlled trials of these musical substitutes."

I have one word for you Professors and I'l say it thrice for emphasis.

Fail.  Fail.  Fail. 

This is a small selection of Patrick's 'purest' moments of 2008.  I know you wanna add to it.  Let's show that hot little biscuit some crazy gangsta love.

I have a bit too much respect for the guy. I mean, he could probably run me down with his car and I'd be fine with it. Anyway, this is more an appreciation list for the LOL's from him this year—even if they weren't meant to be. Thanks, biscuit. —Katy Hibberd, Buzznet featured member, katykatykaty

10. The purple trumpet
Seeing him toot toot away on it has to be in the impeccable 'purest' moments list. 



9. Pumps
His insane amount of pumps. I made a video in pure dedication to it some time ago. 






8. Neckerchiefs
They were emo and now's they're just adorable, making them a must in P. Stump's Purest moments.



7. "Guilty Pleasures"outtakes
It's worth watching the whole thing just for the ending: "I'll show you..." No, but seriously, he made me crap my pants because part way through he yells like so hard.


6. The name change
This is probably the most diva -tyle thing he's done this year—yet he had a valid reason that again makes us want to hold him close to our bosoms with sincerity. I SAID WITH SINCERITY!!!



5. American Eagle Spring Break outtakes
"Did you sign the contract?" "What contract?" "Exactly...."


4. Patrick "Lionel" Stump
Patrick performing with Lupe Fiasco at MTV awards.  Too cool for his own pumps.



3. Rolling Stone interview
He's really quite awesome. Weed, Kanye, and singing by accident.



2. Law & Order
Appearing in Law & Order in special two-part episode called "Darkness." We awaited in suspense. A huge amount of us possibly not leaving the house until we got a bit. And it was absolutely most definitely worth the wait.



1. Moustachette
Need I say more? I was in suspense this time last year waiting for L&O but now an entire project?  I can hardly contain myself. 

Grammy Nomnomnominations Are Up!

There were a few surprises for the 51^st Grammy Awards and for one – I’m personally very pleased to see Jason Mraz up there for the song of the year.  I am also surprised (although I shouldn’t be because we are brilliant...) at the quantity of British-ness!  But its Lil’ Wayne the heads up the score board with 8 nominations!

In true diplomatic style, I would love to congratulate them all on their hard work this year and I feel that the majority of them do really deserve to be in there.

What are your thoughts?

 

 

 

I Love Beyonce so this is isn't a claw mark on her face but it just got me thinking.

Beyonce has an alter ego - with a second name: Sasha Fierce.  So proud of this in fact its the name of her new album. Apparently this is her stage/performance person.  I don't know why she needs it or how it works but I wonder if in some small way, we all actually do it.

So I came up with my own Alter Ego name: Mosey Ravowski.

Yessum.  Oh and why?  I always adopt an eastern european accent when I'm nervous and I continuously repeated a certain catchphrase from a certain children's film for a long time. A lot.


What's yours?  And why?

Amy Winehouse is in hospital once more suffering from a reaction to her medication.

I am a huge fan of Amy Winehouse, I have been since her first album in 2003 when she was unheard of.   But it is becomingmore painful to be one of those who support her.I feel that if I support her, I support her drug habit.  And I don’t want to be one of those people.

Maybe music is the one reason she’s actually still breathing, albeit badly with her diagnosed emphysema. 

Amy before

If I had one thing to say to Amy Winehouse it would be this:

Please stop.  Embarrassing yourself is one thing, don’t embarrass us too.

I’d like to say I’ll be one of the first to purchase her new album when it comes out.  I’m just not going to promise.  How do you separate the artist from the art?  What do you think?
