The only thing I have to say about this recent news is the following.
Elizabeth Warren
Best Chalkboard Gag
Love this so much.
Rory & Jess
If you actually watch the whole fifteen minutes - you're as lame as I am AND THAT'S OKAY!
Listen, I know Gilmore Girls wasn't a good show. Sorta. I sorta know that. That doesn't erase the fact that I watched it to completion and still view Rory & Jess as one of my top two tv couples of all time. Even watching some of these scenes now makes me gush like a schoolgirl. I'm sorry?
And since we're talking about that show, two things:
- Lorelai Gilmore was probably the most irritatingly, unlikable lead character on any show in television history. Why wasn't that talked about more? Like you know how it took us all a few years to be like, "Wow, Carrie Bradshaw fucking sucks as a person" - why did that never happen here? Is it 'cause we all moved on so quickly after this show ended?
- It blows my MIND that Melissa McCarthy wasn't given better lines in any of her storylines. She was a moviestar waiting to happen and it took so damn long because this show never showcased her properly! That aggravates me a bit.
Anyway, big fan.
(And if you really didn't guess that my number one tv couple was Pacey & Joey, then kindly go jump in a lake 'cause y'aint a real friend of mine.)
Kanye West on SNL
I used to hate Kanye West. Why? I don't know, like everyone else who hates him - I didn't really have any good reasons ("He seems like a dick" isn't really a good reason). I just never cared for him.
And then I saw this performance on Saturday Night Live in 2010 and I completely changed my tune. Typically speaking, I always fast forward through most SNL performances. But this one? Just nuts. Not only is it amazing that so much effort went into it, but I found it incredible that he could alter that same old SNL stage the way that he did. I loved how much thought went into that performance and that was it. I stopped hating him. Below you can find another performance from that same episode, but the one linked above is the one that did it for me.

Hahahahah
McBain
Someone pieced together the entire McBain movie from The Simpsons AND IT’S GREAT.
“Go re-watch Frasier. It’s on Netflix.”
Tom & Lorenzo's Mad Men Style Blog
I can't describe how much I love this Mad Men style blog. I wish I'd known of its existence years ago, I would've loved to have followed along with their posts as I watched episodes in real time. If you've ever watched the show and enjoyed it, there's the slightest chance that you might really love the blog as much as I do. It's just so well written, I really can't get enough of it. You can read some for yourself from the links below.

Lenny & Carl
I know I'll never get a tattoo, but can someone I love please just get this one so I can look it all the time in real life?
I've seen so many good Simpsons tattoos on people, but this one is definitely my favourite.
I've tried to find out who designed it so I can credit them here and bow down to them eternally for creating it, but I haven't had any luck. If I do find out, I'll be sure to update this.
