Past Aggression: The Horn of Plenty

December 3, 2009 · Filed under The Childhood, Things that are Odd · Tagged cornucopia, email, horn of plenty, things that suck

As many people know, I truly couldn’t dislike cornucopias anymore than I naturally do.

I really cannot stand them.

They pretty much ruin the entire month of my birthday with their corn filled lies. I will go so far as to say they plague my dreams and fill my heart with bottomless sorrow.

Also I don’t like anything that can is a synonym for “the horn of plenty.”

I thought I successfully avoided all the suck that cornucopia’s bring this holiday season… but apparently someone who sends me shopping emails thought I look like the kind of girl who wants this email:

Well I am totally not. I want nothing to do with your “cornucopia of savings”.

Merry Christmas.

30, Flirty & Thriving

November 10, 2009 · Filed under The Childhood · Tagged 13 going on 30, good times, jenna rink, movies

I think you should watch “13 going on 30″ because it’s awesome.

Go buy some razzles, and listen to some Pat Benetar… I’m reccomending this because I have boundless energy today, and this isn’t the help of coffee or chicklets… or even razzles.

But I wish I were watching this and not my monitor… because today at work I do not feel flirty or thriving… if I were thriving I may be doing this:

and not this:

And remember to Wang Chung tonight.

shoes!

The Post That Almost Wasn’t

September 23, 2009 · Filed under Jimmy, The Childhood · Tagged disco, draculas, halloween, humor, Jimmy, the halloween that almost wasn't, Vampires

Jimmy likes Halloween.

He likes it so much his house is already decorated.

He is has Carrie on DVD waiting for an audience.

He’s stone cold serious, about happy haunts.

And he’s serious about a weird movie from his childhood that involves disco dancing Draculas, and witches that aren’t spooky enough to create the magic of halloween… hopefully they can become their own terrifying selves and won’t have to cancel Halloween.

Called “The Halloween that Almost Wasn’t”

If you have never seen this movie it’s a Jimmy James Suggestion:

here it is:

the disco scene is the best.

Lady Gaga’s Inspiration

September 22, 2009 · Filed under The Childhood, melody makers · Tagged 1980's, cartoons, fame, fashion, glamor, glitter, jem and the holograms, lady gaga, music

You may see her shirtless and sometimes pantless action… but is Lady Gaga hiding something?

No I’m not talking about the people who says she’s a Mister Gaga… I’m talking about her fashion inspirations….

Is she hiding the fact that her “look” & fashion come from the hit cartoon Jem & the Holograms?

I think Lady G looks a lot like Jem/Jerrica… you can note the similarities yourself….

Lady Gaga:

Jem:

Do you remember that Jem’s theme song promises you “Adventure… excitement… Glamour and glitter, Fashion and fame!” Doesn’t that sound like Lady Gaga’s game?

Jem thinks this is truly outrageous…
If you are an 80’s child you remember the wild fashions that happened on this more than rad cartoon. The makeup, the hair, the uneccessary drama, the boyfriend who is in love with the same girl more than once. This sounds eerily identical to the happenings of Lady Gaga.

But I really don’t mind….. because Lady Gaga is fabulous without holograms… and if there were a movie about Jem (that wasn’t Hanna Montana) I think Lady Gaga should star in it.
