Amy Poehler is awesome.

Applicable for more than just body image issues. Applicable for a lot of stuff. It's refreshing to know not all celebrities are jerks. I don't know if you've seen Smart Girls At the Party, but I adore it. Thanks Upworthy for bringing this back to my attention!

'Parks and Recreation' appreciation, dammit!

Now that Bollywood week has seemed to come to an end (thanks Al and AWM for being you which is beautiful) I have decided to post about my obsession of the moment. See:   Parks and Recreation. The first few times I caught this show, I didn't get it. I was like "this is like the Office  but in bumfuck no where Indiana." I was sort of bored. This was a while ago. 2009? 2010? Flash forward to this year. I finally got around to watching a real episode; not just bits and pieces of one while I was out doing other things. And I was like HOLY SHIT THIS IS A VERY GOOD SHOW. Why? the writing is superb. Now I love 30 Rock  very much as well and will be a lifelong Fey diehard fan, but the writing of this show has started to eclipse the other NBC shining beacon for me. You can tell in the beginning that the writing wasn't exactly on cue. But by midway second season, the writers were finally hitting their mark. I mean, nailing their mark. Like in a Seinfeld/Frasier/good O...

"Make Some Noise"- Beastie Boys

This is like Where's Waldo, the celebrity edition. my favorites? Elijah Wood, Chloe Sevigny, and the brief shot we get of Amy Poehler. PLUS:  it's a genuinely good track. PLUS: TED DANSON! RASHIDA JONES! A++++ also:  Beasties have a song out with Santigold. ! I actually remember where I was when I discovered them (Beastie Boys). I was 9 and in the car with my brother and "Intergalactic" came on and he explained who they were to me. when I figured out what they looked like (nerdy Jewish kids) I was like, OH MY GOD I CAN BE A RAPPER NOW TOO. intergalactic planetary closing thoughts:  Elijah Wood is adorable. can I put him in my pocket and use him as a vibrator? (it's been a long day y'all)

BETTY WHITE ON SNL WAS AMAZING

I still cannot get over how good it was. SNL is NEVER that good! and they brought some GREAT people back, omg. Amy Poehler sounded very weird though... I loved her hits at facebook and the tasteful jokes about her age. and "SHE'S A LESBIAN! LESBIAN!" ahahahaha plus when Jay-Z dedicated that song to her. ahhhh! check out this link for further details: http://www.newsopi.com/showbiz/betty-white-snl/1651/ did you not enjoy that???

The Next Oscar Host

This is straight from Zap2it, but I was reading this earlier today. I don't know if they've picked an Oscar host yet, but who would you like to see up there? And no, you can't pick Hugh Jackman because he said he aint doing it. meh. Life goes on, but gosh darn that man can sing. QATFYG: (these are the zap2it picks. If you're beau or gal isn't on the list feel free to write him/her in) Who should host the 2010 Academy Awards? Russell Brand Steve Carell George Clooney Steven Colbert Billy Crystal Will Ferrell Tina Fey Jamie Foxx Ricky Gervais Whoopi Goldberg Tom Hanks Steve Martin Amy Poehler ----My Vote Will Smith Oprah Winfrey **I picked Amy Poehler because I think she has the most to gain, and she could do probably the most entertaining host job.
