From time to time, a pop culture phenomenon sweeps in,  funnels mankind’s collective interest and darts away with millions of YouTube views, a Today Show interview and a future spent hopping between the C-list reality television circuit and rehab facilities.

On an unrelated note, I announced a dance challenge over the weekend.

If you are currently storing urine in your bladder or coffee in your mouth, I advise you to relieve yourself of these liquid dangers prior to viewing my dance challenge announcement.

I highly recommend you participate in the “Show Me Ya Moves” Dance Challenge if you:

  • plan to pursue a political career
  • have children who will one day be teenagers
  • are named Ellen Degeneres
  • know someone (IRL) named Ellen Degeneres
  • are still reading this. You’re wasting time. Get a camera. Play a tune. No talent required.

I might give away a free t-shirt to all participants. Or maybe all participants will automatically be eligible to win a date with Boy Toy Brad? I haven’t decided yet, but I’m open to suggestions.

Join the handful of people I have almost successfully harassed into participating:

Matt
Srini
Kelly
The Bloggess
Jamie
Rich
You.

Leave a comment below with your name and the song you plan to assault.

“Who could possibly be at my door?” I wondered.
I sat, paralyzed in fear, still thinking mostly of Snookie and our impending friendship. But also, still fearful because my usual serial killer screening [...]

January 27, 2010

I play a pretty solid wing girl.
Recently, this role allowed me to witness the following situation play out between a single friend, her Man of Interest and an innocent dart board.
“…. what phone service do you have?” – Friend
“Metro PCS.” – Man of Interest
“WHOA. Do you have bad credit or what?” – Friend
“What?” – [...]

Equilibrium is Killing My Coffee

January 25, 2010

I’m currently not on speaking terms with equilibrium, but I have a strange feeling this will all balance itself out.
Equilibrium and I got along just fine until I began augmenting my three daily cups of coffee with refrigerated milk.
Now, I have the following problem:

Can someone help me? I’d really like to become an astronaut and [...]

Hip Hop Dance Class: I Love You, But I’m Not in Love with You

January 23, 2010

Confession (a.k.a. Editor’s Note): I sat down to write with a Denny’s to-go coffee and turned on my new Michael Buble Pandora station. After ten minutes, I was convinced that his voice was becoming an accomplice to the most boring first draft ever written. Also, I started craving Olive Garden. Yes, Frank Sinatra, you may [...]

Irony at the Vending Machine and Why Frito Lay’s Marketing Dept. is Going to Owe Me a Shit Ton of Money

January 20, 2010

I was a big Alanis fan in her prime, even though I was nine and I had no clue what she was yelling about. Looking back now though, I have an issue.
Who the hell has ever had 10,000 spoons when all they needed was a knife? Not me.*
But you know what I have had? 90 [...]
