Hi. Did you have a week. I mean, did you have a week or what. We here at Autostraddle definitely had one of those weeks that may have actually only been a few days but felt like infinity. Did you read any poetry while we were gone?
So maybe I’m supposed to hand out awards now or something.

I will be distributing the awards in no particular order and I will be hand delivering them personally to your place of residence. Sometimes I like to switch it up. Also because this week was weird and I feel like this:
Okay first here’s an award to FDR because she’s in love and this is perfect and wonderful and we totally forgive you.
Here’s an award for bani because she said “Harry Potter”.
This award is for Paper, what a weirdo. We love you too.
I am giving this award to AG because she said “puberty shore” and because her picture is of a shark.
This award goes to moose’s mother because, like, come on. lol.
InTheJunkDrawer wins this award because GIRL I FEEL YA
K.
Thank you that’s all for today come back next week for our regular scheduled programming.

geneva will have a games night at her place where we will all get drunk and play taboo.
You Canadians have all the fun.
Let’s crash Canadian game night!
Politely !
I’ve changed my avatar in celebration.
Hi, Autostraddle! This is my face.
That’s a good face to have!
hi paper! *waves*
I think Emily’s comment is probably my fave. I think I’ve watched the BTW video about six times so far, just trying to figure out the narrative. And why everyone is suddenly using unicorns in music videos?
Oh my gosh I cannot get over the whiskey kitty. That is how I feel ALL THE TIME. Especially now, since I’ve been attempting to moderate a horrible, pestilential comment thread at my college’s student newspaper for the past 24 hours.
WHERE ARE THE WHISKIES ARE THEY HERE YET
This. The whisky kitty is now my desktop because it is my life exactly.
Also my girlfriend’s cat actually does this with the faucet and we have been confused about her obsession with the dripping water, but now it makes sense.
MMM WHISKY.
Also I just realized I have been spelling whiskey wrong my entire life. Oops.
Aha BUT WAIT! You can spell it either way so don’t feel bad
“Whisky” is Scottish. “Whiskey” is Irish (and therefore right).
Ha! My cousin’s cat loves to sleep in the bathroom sink. He’s enormous but he’s completely white, so if you’re not paying attention you don’t notice him until you go to wash your hands, and then you’re all “WHAT THE CRAP” and he just looks at you. Because he’s deaf as a post.
He’s my favorite cat ever, basically.
(there are so many ways of spelling whiskey: one of them is DELICIOUS)
I’m going to go watch “it gets better” videos on YouTube, because I’m sad that I never get awarded.
EKINICOLE, I APPRECIATE YOU. YOU ARE IMPORTANT. I LOVE YOU. THANK YOU FOR COMING TO AUTOSTRADDLE, YOU’RE A TROOPER AND I AM GOING TO KNIT YOU SOMETHING WITH MY FEET.
Awe thanks terracottatoes your the best :)
I figured it would be impossible to mention Canada and HP and not be on this page somewhere.
i replied to your comment because i knew emily would pick it
FOR SHAME, TERRACOTTATOES. FOR SHAME.
I’M SO PREDICTABLE
GIRL I FEEL YOU, TOO! And thanks for the award.
omg you guys i just realized that AG is ALREADY READY FOR SHARK WEEK i mean just look at her. free pass to dinah for her
Yay! Does this mean I also get to drink, even though I think most alcohol (at least the stuff I’ve been allowed to taste) tastes like my dogs farts? Except white win that had been left in the fridge for a week. That was pretty good.
White WINE, although it did kind of win. My chest was really warm.
AWESOME!
if only my mom would appreciate this.
^My mom was reading over my shoulder while I read this. There wasn’t anything inappropriate, so I figured I’d just let her read….
“Why are there naked people in the ads?”
“They’re not naked. Their lady parts are covered. Its a calender.”
“One person in those ads is wearing clothes. That qualifies naked”
*mom walks away*
“BUT LOOK! There’s a picture of a cute kitten!”
“IS THIS WHERE THE WHISKEY COMES FROM?!”
…I am no longer reading autostraddle from anywhere but my laptop and blackberry.
Yay I got a comment award!
