Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

"What kind of magical sunshine and lollipop world do you live in? Because you need to be medicated."-SFist

From tonight, it should be Vicci and Nikia from Cee-Lo’s team. From Adam’s team, I’d go with Javier, obviously, and Casey

Agreed.

Xenia's performance definitely wasn't great, but I found Blake's reasoning interesting.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

EW lists the top 25 dances on SYTYCD. The fact that the Fug Princess is represented on this list in any way, shape, form or fashion automatically calls into question the author's judgement. Interesting, nonetheless. And the Dead Daddy Dance, Mia's door routine and Tasty's cancer dance all did not make the list. That's something.

'Til we dance away...

I can't believe there is a disco on that list. But I'm very happy to see the Alex hip hop at number 1.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

OK, I admit I've never heard this song before, but "your sex is on fire"? Sounds like something out of the Smart Bitches reviewing a romance novel and saying "THE STD BURRRRNS".

you got it, that is exactly what the song is about.

Here is the original: [link]

Here is one of my favorite performances of the song on the British X-Factor about 2-3 years ago (starts at 2 min in):

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Not sure how non-fictional this is, but I've spotted some ads for a show that looks like it's imitating TAR; one of the quotes makes me laugh.

The scene - somewhere in a vast desert, several women are slogging through the sand. One says (in what sounds like a NJ accent), "We're in the Sahara. It's all sand, yo!"
