Fish-inna-barrel wank of the day
The NY Times newsblog The Lede reports that Paris Hilton is out of jail and under house arrest. Predictably, the comments thread explodes. 690 comments and counting.

My favorite part about this is actually not the comments thread (which is full of all the self-righteous wankery you'd expect, on all sides). It's the Recent Posts sidebar and the comment counts therein:



I find it especially funny, and possibly even a touch ironic, in light of the sheer number of people in the Hilton comments thread ranting about how news is SERIOUS BUSINESS and complaining about the girl getting yet more airtime.

I only shave in the summer, because it gets hot and they itch and it's a pain in the ass to keep them unshaved in 100 degree heat.

This is true. Sometimes I feel like being smooth and shiny, so I shave. I've got nobody to impress at the moment but myself, so eh. LOL!

Well, hell, no one that I've wanted to impress has ever seen my legs, so I just shave for my comfort. It's not like my cat'll care all that much.

I had a boyfriend who was a furry. He loved my armpits - it was SO weird. He looked like a long-haired Tobey Maguire, though, so I put up with just about any weird shit he threw at me. He had a cycler's bottom and thighs. *sighs* Good times.

*dies laughing* I'm sorry, I just. ARMPITS. *laughs harder*

Ahem, better now. Really. *cracks up again* Ahem, Tobey Maguire. I guess it would be a bad time to mention I've never found him hot, huh?

I did, which was the important thing if we're talking about someone I dated. LOL! He would just play with them if I was wearing a sleeveless top. I'd screw up my face in puzzlement and go, "Dude! WHAT are you DOING?!"

He liked my fat rolls too. I guess it was better than someone telling me to lose weight and shave my armpits, ho!

Well, I mean...dude, ARMPITS SMELL! Even after you wash them, they smell god awful. Did he have a thing for Molly Shannon?

Hey, your rolls just make you squishy and cuddly.

They aren't huge rolls and they're only there when I'm sitting down. I have no idea. I know he had a thing for Tilda Swinton. He liked androgyny, which used to concern me until he started going out with his latest girl, who is utterly womanly, she's just a dear and I thought, "Okay, I'm not a shemale, he just fantasizes about anatomical extremes and impossibilities! Phew!"

Mine don't smell bad. They can if I exert myself, but since I live a rather low-key life they generally smell like the musky underarm deoderant I use.

Pfft, then you have no fat rolls. *shakes finger at you* And if I knew who Tilda was, that might help a little more. *grins* But not so much with the unknown.

Mine don't smell that bad either, but they sure don't smell all roses and sunshine. What with being a hidden cavity in the body and all. Mine smell a lot like Secret. *grins*

Uhm - have you seen Narnia? She's the queen chick in it. Very androgynous.

LOL! You know who doesn't smell bad? My Dad. I swear, even after work all he'd smell like was metal (he was a boilermaker). I know guys who smell like ASS after a full day's work. Damned fastidious Germans.

That would be a no. I missed that go round of movies. Oops.

Dude, how did he get so lucky? Because my dad? Smells like two-week-old rotten cheese after a full day working in a box plant.

Oh. Never mind then. It's worth seeing for ten minutes of James McAvoy as a faun. All my Greek Myth kinks come out to play! :D

I have no idea. Maybe it's the fact that he's coated, head to toe, in metal filings and dust and it stopped him from smelling or something. *shrugs* Who knows. The other option is that he's a freak.

I'd be willing to listen to McAvoy read the phonebook. I'm just saying.

*laugh* Well, to be fair, my dad wears shorts (even in 30 degree weather, the freak), short sleeve shorts, socks and shoes. Just be glad you can't smell the feetholders. Trust me. Hey, if your daddy's a freak, maybe he gave you the genes, too.

He's shirtless and scruffy? That's added incentive.

Well, Dad would wear overalls. Every time. Even in hot weather. I wish. I can smell really terrible sometimes. :( I hate it.

Duuude, totally worth it then.

Overalls are at least better than cheap shorts that crap out every couple months. And if they get flubbed up, instant gear to paint the house. Most humans smell bad, so you're not alone.

Aw, see, one up than me. I only smell good when I use my purdy perfume. Or my shampoo that smells good too.

I have this natural, sweet musky smell. So odd.

I have no smell, or no one's ever told me about it. Mostly I just smell like my soap and shampoo, which are lavender.

Well, I started out picking it because the color was purple (sadly, I was like eighteen at the time), and I kept it because it smelled nice. I turn easy for the color purple.

Oh, me too. Purple and pink when associated with strawberries. I'm such a *girl* sometimes.

See, I just started liking pink again. When I was younger, my godmom decided MAUVE was the perfect color for a six-year-old girl. And it stayed like that until she moved when I was 14. Yeah.

It has to be a certain kind of pink for me. A bold, sassy, skull-fucking pink. A pink that says, "I HAVE A VAGINA, BITCH, AND I LIKE IT!" You know what I mean? I have this deliciously hot pink purse. Mainly so I don't leave it behind anywhere cause I just lose black ones - they are invisible to me. A good pink on my olive skin looks great though, so I can wear the colour. I also like it on notebooks, as pen inks and on my niece (who is more obsessed about pink than anyone I know, including Stephanie from Lazy Town).

*laugh* I only like cotton candy pink for me. It looks damn good on my pale skin. But yes, I know what you mean about the BOLD IN YOUR FACE FUCKFACE pink. It's good for conversation starters, too. You can't miss a rack in the color. *whistles innocently* And I have a brown Fossil bag that goes everywhere I go so I don't lose it. And I don't worry about it matching my outfit since I'm never out of jeans.
