10 Stupid Things for Facebook Walls

Here's my list of 10 Things I'd like to never see on a Facebook wall again:

1) The Boyfriend Report

John Smith is--thinking about his boyfriend CONSTANTLY!!! <3>

Do you realize every time you put something like this on your wall, you make it that much harder for anyone to feel bad for you when the relationship ends two days later?

2) The Vague Expression of Passive Aggression

John Smith is--Some people are really making other people really angry by doing certain things that they shouldn't...

Gee, why don't you just tag the person you got into a fight with two hours earlier? Are you hoping to make all your friends worry that you're mad at them? The comment section on these are even better--

John Doe: OMG! You're not mad at me, are you?
John Smith: Noooo, OMG, I love you!!! It's just someone doing something that they shouldn't. They're just a someone.
Jane Doe: Is it ME??? LOL No, but is it?
John Smith: LOL Nooooo! Someone else.

Pretty soon it just becomes process of elimination.

3) The Inside Joke

John Smith is--koala bears in the what what? Hahaha

You know, they have this new thing where you can edit statuses so that only certain people can see them. Why not do that rather than make everyone other than the two people who know what the hell you're talking about read this and have their heads explode while they try to figure out how you came in contact with a koala bear and just what your "what what" is?

4) The Ode to Life

John Smith is--Crazy pancakes after an amazing party at Sal's! Love my Life!

I don't care.

5) The Cursed Life

John Smith is--I just found out that I'm adopted and that my real parents were Bavarian gypsies! FML!

I don't care--and I now know wayyy too much about you.

6) The Declaration of Love to a Really Bad Pop Culture Phenomenon As If You're the Only Idiot That Likes It

John Smith is--AVATAR IS AMAZING!!! Everybody should see it!

I'm sorry, I'm confused. Are you talking to the four people who haven't seen it? Thank you for exposing us to this hidden gem. Aside from the record-breaking gross and the Oscar nominations, I never would have heard about it. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go back under my rock and see if I have enough change for a movie ticket. Those cost a few nickels more now, right?

7) The Song Lyrics Dedicated to Whomever You Just Had Sex With

John Smith is--"And your body is/My ferris wheel/I loved getting stuck/At the top" :)

Just so we're clear, posting song lyrics afterwards doesn't make the hook-up any less trashy.

8) The Compliment Fisher

John Smith is--I'm the worst person ever. Someone just shoot me.

Am I the only one who sees statuses like this and wants to comment with--"Yeah, you really are. You should just find a bottle of something and take the whole thing. So glad you realized this without any of us having to tell you. What a load off that is!"

9) The Bar Tab

John Smith--Still sooo wasted from last night. Threw up on myself. Hahaha Who wants to go out tonight?

If I want to find out how your alcoholism is going, I'll tune into Intervention when your episode is on.

10) The Awesome Vacation That Only You're On

John Smith is--Watching a sunset on a tropical island in the Pacific. Spent all day relaxing and now I'm going to drink wine and dance the night away with as many beautiful strangers as I can. God, life is glorious, isn't it?

F**k you.

A List of People Who Can Go to Hell Now That I Can't Have Elizabeth Warren

So today was a rough day for everybody who isn't a @#$%-ing #$%hole. Let's just start there. If that upsets you, by all means, go straight to hell. This entire rant is going to be exactly what it sounds like. I am mad and I am going to exercise my right to BLOG ABOUT IT LIKE IT'S 1995, SO BUCKLE UP, BUTTERCUP. I really don't even know where to start, so let's just jump right in with the first person who comes to mind. Bloomberg, go to hell.  You really didn't have anything specific to do with today, but you can just go to hell for spending an ungodly amount of money on literally nothing.  I mean, you could have lit millions of dollars on fire and at least warmed the hands of the homeless, but instead, you made tv stations across the country that are already owned by Conservatives rich, so kudos to you and go to hell. Amy Klobuchar, I STUCK UP FOR YOU AMY.  I got into FIGHTS on SOCIAL MEDIA while DEFENDING your sorry, self-interested ass.  You know

Theater and the Outbreak

After last week's interview, a representative from a theater that recently experienced the results of opening too soon reached out to speak with me. I want to thank this person for coming forward in the hopes that it'll change some minds about what's safe and what isn't when it comes to the performing arts. Here's the interview: ME:  So this wasn't a full production or-- THEM:  No. It was us trying to do a little something for friends and donors. ME:  Who is 'us?' THEM:  The board of _____. ME:  And how long have you been on the board? THEM:  Three years. ME:  What was this going to be? THEM:  There's a, uh, beautiful park here in town, and we wanted to do an outdoor performance of a Shakespeare as a benefit, because, as you know, theaters are having a hard time right now paying the bills. We checked with the local government and the health department for the state to make sure we were doing everything the way we needed to in order to keep everyone s

People You Know Are More Important Than People You Don't Know

This post is in response to arguing with people--straight and gay alike--about a certain celebrity, whether or not she's an ally, if she's pandering, if pandering matters, and whether or not I'm an asshole. The last part is probably an enthusiastic "Yes" but let's reflect on this for a bit anyway without actually giving more time to an argument about a person none of us know, which is a crucial part of what I want to talk about. People you know are more important than people you don't know. I realize it's tricky in an age where we've never been closer or more engaged to our celebrities to keep in mind that we do not know them, they are not our friends, and while we may love them and stan and feel like we're attacked when they're attacked-- That is not true. That is not real. They are in no tangible way connected to us. Now, as someone who is obsessed with pop culture, I get that it's a little hypocritical for me to be making
