I have so many awkward moments. The last one occurred about 15 minutes ago, when I realized I had left my vibrator out on the shelf in the bathroom I share with my straight roommate, after she (and her fiance) both were in there before bed. Oh my god.
-
probably the most awkward roommate moment I’ve ever had (and I’ve had a few)
-
Youguys, you’re making me loathe the idea of rooming with a straight cisgirl who is also from my conservative small redneck town at college. I just feel like the potential for awkwadness is SUPER DUPER HIGH.
-
think of the fodder you’ll have for stories on this group. TOTALLY WORTH IT.
-
I just need to establish some sort of system with her that lets her know when I’d like our room to myself. I feel like establishing this system will be an awkward conversation in itself.
-
Approach it from the point of view that she probably wants a system just as much as you do. She won’t want you walking in on her either. Act like it’s totally normal!
-
this is an age-old college roommate quandary. you’ll figure it out. i’m not worried.
-
when you and your girl are playing “chess”, just text your roommate beforehand like “hey! cobra for 3o minutes! later!”.

Comics, Anyone? 12 years, 4 months agoThe only thing I love about X-Men movies more than actual X-Men is that Ellen Page = Kitty Pryde. I could die from loving her so hard.

Comics, Anyone? 12 years, 4 months agowonder woman the teevee reboot seems to have been rejected, anybody got feelings on that front?
-
I would have probably hated it. But I am kind of sad that I never got to see it at all.
-
yeah, I feel like I could have distanced myself from my love of wonder woman and perhaps appreciated it for another quality, but it looked pretty bad. I’m just sad there seems so be so few opportunities for her upstairs you know? they made thor (albeit marvel) and green lantern films which are less well known heroes but wonder woman gets no love.
-
-
I’m pretty relieved. Wonder Woman has an image problem already (in terms of being the only big name gal super and one of the top three heroes in DC’s universe, but never quite making it as big as Supes or Bats). I think this show would have tanked (I know some people were pegging it as NBC’s next Bionic Woman) and shelved some WW projects DC…[Read more]
-
I also have feelings re: David E. Kelley. I really like him. Or rather, the shows he makes. However, Wonder Woman strikes a balance between female empowerment and sexual objectification, and I really don’t trust Kelley to manage that well.

I say things when I KNOW I shouldn’t, but my optimism makes me think it might turn out okay.
In the hairdresser’s, in my conservative, redneck shithole of a town:
Catherine (hairdresser): Oh, this short style really suits you.
Me: Yeah, I’m glad I finally got the courage up to chop it all off, you know. It’s a big thing.
C: It’s very chic!

I hope/assume your ears are still intact? Also I want to start using “folicular patrons” in daily language. Haha :P
-
I’ve still got the ears. I’m glad with the way it turned out; now, when I get my ridiculous amount of piercings, they’ll be visible and not hidden under my previously biebery shag. Which made for awkward times in my small town as well.
“You look like Justin Bieber.”
“FUCK YEAH!!”
“What the hell?”
-
-
this is brilliant.
-
this is a fucking amazing compliment. YOU are brilliant, my good lady.
-
i’ve never been complimented so thoroughly on a compliment. astounded right now.
-
-
-
I spent an hour talking to my parents and my hairdresser explaining that there are places where getting hair cut like mine isn’t weird or unusual. without saying “lesbians”, in an effort to avoid the awkward.
DIDN’T WORK
-
if you have a short gay haircut i really recommend cutting it yourself! it’s actually super easy!
-
yeah, that was how the discussion ended. do you have any tips on that subject, btw? they’d be super helpful!
-
i keep my hair pretty short so it’s super duper easy for me. i use a set of clippers with the longest guide thingy on, the 3/4″ one, and just buzz the back and sides with that. i keep the top a little longer and parted on the left. to do that, i use the same guide thingy on the clippers. i stand my hair up (i cut it dry but my hair is super thick…[Read more]

-
I’ve always really wanted to cut my hair myself after I heard that Keith Richards did it. The guy is my idol. And it seems like what the cool kids do. I’m just terrified of messing up.

Comics, Anyone? 12 years, 4 months agoSo I *just* heard that a pilot has been shot for Fables for ABC. Is this old news?? Am I the last to find out about something so totally badass [per usual]???!
Ginnifer Goodwin (ala “Big Love”) is Snow White. And the writers are from LOST. I am really hoping that the ABC execs or whoever pick this up…because this has awesomesauce written all over it.-
You’re not the last one to find out about this, because I AM! I’m so excited for this! I just hope they don’t fuck it up, because I adore Fables! I just…don’t know how to feel about the Jack spinoff. Does it get better after he breaks out of that prison town thing the first time? Because that’s the last I read of it.
-
Ugh…Jack was never one of my fave characters anyway so I could never really get into his spinoff deal.
-
-
ahhh i heard that this died though! :(
-
Really? It hasn’t had a chance to die yet. The pilot was shot & it’s in the mix with however many other pilots & the ABC peeps have to decide which pilots they want to try out. So…there’s still a chance!
-
ohh.. interesting. so this new show isn’t directly supposed to be based off of fables but it obviously seems to be borrowing heavily from the fables storyline. i heard of the fables pilot that abc made a while ago, in 2008, which basically died immediately afterward. seems like they are trying to reincarnate that effort in a thinly disguised new…[Read more]
-
ohhh…this is interesting indeed. ginnifer goodwin was on jimmy kimmel last night & never actually mentioned the name of the show. she just said she was snow white…and explained very briefly about how the other fairy tale characters go to her for “advice” or something like that.
i had no clue it wasn’t officially fables though…weird (and…[Read more]

Comics, Anyone? 12 years, 4 months agoYES! We haz a group!
So many titles I don’t know where to start O_o
Well I guess since I am doing a final paper on the history of Selina Kyle (had to be a character that’s been around for 25 years or more) I’ll first ask if anyone’s read Catwoman: When in Rome.
Also who wants a Runaway’s movie as much as I do?
-
They’re planning on making one! There was a casting call recently that drew a loooot of raised eyebrows because the characterization in the descriptions seemed way off and it looked like Nico was gonna be whitewashed–but I don’t know what happened with that.
-
I just don’t understand why movie execs option comic books (or any kind of book, really) to turn into a film when they have no interest in actually filming the book itself! And don’t even get me started on the whitewashing bullshit. Oh, but everyone has a heart attack that Idris Elba is even in the Thor movie at all. (dudes, it’s not like…[Read more]

@Kestral I know! I just haven’t heard ANYTHING since that little bit of fan outrage.
I don’t understand changing the story at all, it’s very cinematic as far as storytelling and visuals and the first arc could easily be condensed into a movie.
