The Most Awkward Internet First Date Ever
Ohhh, you wrote the post! Well how come you waited soo long to admit that? I thought you weren’t an asshole. Anyway, the palm tree thing isn’t funny. I know palm trees are Hollywood, and this is Filmwad, I’m in LA. But its just not funny. My “underground pansy ass world” is called the internet, where I find things like trailers before they’re up on this site....

Hulu Users Love ‘McStroke’ Long Time Episode 6.8 of Family Guy, in which Peter eats too many burgers, has a stroke and subsequently confronts factory farming, is still one of Hulu’s most popular television episodes after several months, though I can’t say for precisely how long. User comments were decisively negative the first week or two after the episode was made available online,...

My friend Dave encouraged me to check out this new web series starring Neil Patrick Harris. Fast-forward through the blog to get to the good stuff.
I surprisingly enjoyed it. I wonder what it says that web properties are popping up with minimalist web design and ambiguous financial backing. Is this the end of the dot content bust or the beginning of a new boom?

hey, we have made 17!
Keith: um, you didn't make a mistake, you know. On the writeup. I changed it because we have Adam and Andrew as Ep. 17. Mike is ep 18.
me: really?

Keith: Yeah they were.
me: i listed them as 16
great.
Keith: You have the Benten guys as 16.

things learned from a podcast, season one.
-being a “producer” is better than being an “editor.” because producing means just emailing people and expecting them to show up.

sunday part 2.
and after a half hour of howard fineman giving his thoughts on colin powell meeting with both mccain and obama—then telling each of them what he told the other, but swears he’ll back obama—i’ve had enough.
time to watch the soup.
it is sunday morning
this means i begin the day with chris matthews, meet the press and bruce mclaughlin.
although it does mean constantly flipping back and forth between cbs.
one may ask, why does one watch these shows when i can clearly wait for the huffpo round-up? i’ll tell you: because this is like crack. listening to old white men argue about what is right for the country and then shouting at my tv.
