When is an appropriate time to stop saying “happy new year” to people? Because I thought it was around the ~4th of January.
xoxox
This week started off on a pretty good foot; Obama talked about the shooting in Arizona, said some nice things, and then Riese said some too. Jane came out to her evangelical parents, Treza (who has an incredible name) made you a playlist for coming to terms with your gayness, and everybody came to/at the adult entertainment expo. Deanne Smith made like The View and addressed two of the hottest topics today, airport security and zodiac panic, and we learned a little about Australian gays via the case of Penny Wong. Television this week was decidedly gayer than usual, featuring a very queer version of the Golden Globes, the first episode of U.S. Skins (don’t forget Riese and Crystal’s top 10 scenes from original Skins) and there was more mama drama on Pretty Little Liars. Aaaaand don’t forget to send your questions for Holly Miranda to Crystal!

The What’s Your Sign Award to Hobbled:

My first comment award!! I have dreamt about this moment…
Had you clicked on my username inadvertently? I have been waiting for someone to do that and freak the fuck out.
Whoa
Yes! That must have been what I did! I definitely freaked the fuck out, jeeeeez.
I kept clicking the entire page wondering if it was suppose to take me somewhere [like to Narnia, or to Diagon Alley].
It didn’t, so I kept staring.
Wut?
I just clicked on this to get the full experience and it was great. Of course, I was at work at the time.
On the other hand, we’re taking a nap time now and I co-own the business, so it’s really all good.
you have nap times? for real? damn, i need a new job…
jenin darling, if you want the full terracottatoes experience it’s not the link you gotta click ;)
(what is this i don’t even, i just enjoy being mildly entertaining.. i am glad you all enjoyed/were freaked the fuck out by my link… like i said, i have been waiting ages for someone to stumble upon it.. today is a great day)
Nap time? At work?
Do you also have milk and cookies?
……..will be applying for a job…
I used to crawl under my desk in my cubicle and take naps, if you have a sort of corner desk and curl up properly no one could see.
If words were food, I think it’s clear that hyperbole would be one of my basic food groups.
I’m a big fan of sauteed sarcasm. It’s rich in irony.
It’s a major ingredient of BBQ sauce.
VARSITY BBQ TEAM IN THE HOOOOOOUUUUUSSE !
Chest bump!……oh sorry dude, got sauce on ya….my bad
You should never be ashamed of shared sauce.
If you go to Google and search “lesbians bbq sauce” you’ll notice that Autostraddle is the first thing that comes up! Just sayin’…
yay third week in a row. 50 points to me.
Go team! 50 points to Gryffindor.
Shouldn’t autostraddle change it name to the inappropriate lezzy Harry Potter fan club? I’m all for it by the way. Gotta love Harry Potter, pussy and sandwiches. :)
Yes, AS feels really similar to my RSS feed, which is comprised of a pleasing blend of ladies, a fragrant bouquet of cats in sweaters, hints of food porn, musing GIFs, and a lasting final note of harry potter.
I don’t even have anything clever to say right now. I’m just happy and excited. I’m going to have to clear a shelf off for these awards.
Um, point of interest: I didn’t write that…
*confused*
AH SORRY I DO THESE LATE AT NIGHT AND I AM JUST A TINY HUMAN SOMETIMES I FORGET TO CHANGE THE NAMES FROM LAST WEEK
i think someone already changed it?
I fixed it – sorry, I don’t always reply back.
oh thanks! saved me the trouble. =]

I want to be a lesbian invader! we can make delicious food and fly through the galaxy with bbq sauce and Dani’s cookies and a plaid ship. I had to upgrade the fort to a ship for proper invadingtimes.
