I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

whee, top 100. Teppy's aunts are nuts. I am home for the week!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Vince Vaughn used to be so cute!

Have you seen Wedding Crashers yet?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Here's how stupid/lame I am: I enjoy the slightly puffy VV of Wedding Crashers because it makes him more like someone I could actually go out with, due to my own slight lumpy-ness.

Is that like people looking like their pets?

I knew a guy who looked like me (admittedly more extreme than Jesse/VV), except 6'6". I so wanted to have his childrens, the screaming of my selfish genes reaching a din.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Why Good Eats has looked so weird this season:

Yes Good Eats looks different. Food Network is converting to High Definition television and Good Eats started shooting in that format this year. Unlike standard definition or “SD” TV, there are very stringent technical requirements for HD and Food Network’s parent company Scripps Howard has equally stringent aesthetic requirements as well. We are doing our best to take full advantage of the creative opportunities offered by HD while staying true to our roots. I know that some die-hard fans don’t dig the look, but I’ll tell ya something…it grows on you. And although the cameras are big and clunky and persnickety and darned expensive, there are considerable up-sides, like a 16:9 frame ratio which I can’t even watch at my house, and of course the ability to really see how much hair I’ve lost in the last 6 years.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

The only only woman I've ever known that looks like me is my sister. Occasionally someone mistakes her for me in family photos.

No. It's part of my whole couple parity theory.

But then you're keeping people down! Shouldn't upgrades be possible?

The only only woman I've ever known that looks like me is my sister.

He probably looked more like me than my sister does. We knew a woman in university who looked more like each of us than we looked like each other. Sort of a missing link. So we both got mistaken for her, but were never mistaken for each other.

I know I've said it somewhere before, but my brother and his wife look enough alike to be mistaken for siblings (moreso than their actual siblings.) And their kid looks startlingly like them in their baby pictures, even as their baby pictures don't look nearly as alike.

Police battle looters after beer train crashes

JOHANNESBURG, South Africa - Hundreds of looters battled police all weekend at the site of a beer train wreck in violence that left one woman dead, South African police said on Monday as they kept a heavy guard on the remaining alcohol.

The train carrying 180,000 crates of beer from South African Breweries derailed on Friday night near Waterval Boven, 124 miles east of Johannesburg, Superintendent Izak van Zyl said.

By Saturday morning, police were battling up to 200 people from the nearby township trying to make off with crates of beer.
