That dog with the cupcakes just made me laugh so hard Earl Grey shot out of my nose.
Um, is anyone having technical difficulties with the sidebar or main page?
My Mac crashed when I tried to run that Youtube thing.
@3 This won’t crash your browser http://www.todaysbigthing.com/2009/03/23
Everyone come out to South Street tonight. It’s my last Tuesday in cville.
Are you being deported?
@1 would be wrong to ask if Earl Grey was your new boyfriend?
@6: Yep. Deported to nova.
New disk, “astrojack”, up on the bloggy thingamajig.
It has even less banjos than the last, dave mathews makes no cameos, and no fixed gear bicycles were injured in its creation – so it obviously sucks.
Echo… I will miss you muchly :[
I just heard that DMB is filming a music video in town tonight – is it true?
Time to go party @ SS with the one, the only, echo.
@12 Only posting it here because I can’t remember where I was talking about it… But rugby. Most definitely. Have you seen the All Blacks do their Haka dance? Wow. Pure testosterone. Thank Gawd there’s a tall one sitting in front of me cause I can just call the drool dribble from mah beer.
idigrrss:
why every time i think of you do i have to remind myself to turn around and get away from negative. you were a great friend. you continue to be an ass. thanks for the brush-off. just when i thought we got passed that.(crap you started, unnessecarisy).
/so i can’t spell-where is parlie?)
@13: I am drawn to rugby thighs like a redneck to chicken wings
@9 – single tracks coming soon?!
When is the CDC going to realize that Siips bloows and that we don’t want to go theere?
@16 Done. Sorry for the delay.
@18 – lovely
Why dooon’t yoouu liiike iiit?
@20: The special CDC prices aren’t that cheap and quite frankly the place is boring.
Siips? Has anyone gone in there. I thought it was where blue hairs and out of towner’s go after their trip to Monticello. Did it take over the Hardware Store crowd? When people would ask me where the Hardware Store was my reply was always “why?”. I believe I was able to convert about 1/3 of them to go somewhere else.
BTW any catch the will of the founder of PETA? http://www.peta.org/feat/newkirk/will.html
Do not read on an empty stomach- Hell if you are queasy at all don’t read it.
OMFG what a looney.
Siips is the Oxygen Network of Charlottesville bars.
/lets all go and read from our dream journals. you know. about our feelings.
@22 in complete agreement. @25 LOL true
@25 really I think that would be best for everyone
@23 She forgot one stipulation – her uterus should be put on public display to remind everyone that some people should not breed…
parlie’s on the news right now! lol!
they should never have given me the medias.
Wot?
I got 3 where’s “orchid” comments tonight. Congratulations. Even on my last day in cville, you can’t let me enjoy myself.
Yay we both drunk posted inappropriate stuff.
@34 Does that mean I can go to Bizou?
@35: Yes. Those assholes don’t work there anymore. They actually have really nice waitstaff right now too.
Maybe Im just tired and it is obvious and everyone already has it sussed, but this struck me as interesting…
The latest pop effluvia to wisp its way from Britney Spears is a song called “If You Seek Amy”, and judging by the fact that there are about 47 bajillion remixes of it floating about, I imagine it is poised to be her next big hit. The lyrics and title always struck me as odd though. Well last night, I was trying on one of the the more tolerable remixes of this ahem, gem, and I had an epiphany. The song, phonetically, is F.U.C.K. ME. “all of the boys and all of the girls f u c k me…”
I wonder if this will get played on commercial radio? Has anyone ever heard this song on the radio?
Oh well. And by the way… fuck YEAH!
@37 regarding the fuck yeah… Excited!!
Belmont I’m am exciting about WTWTA as well. Spike is the man
@17 siip-swine.
@37: Whoa. It’s like a slutty Davinci code.
Belmont Yo, Have you seen this mash up of youtube clips made into a funky beat?
http://thru-you.com/#/videos/1/
Absolutely! Probably the best of that sort of thing that I have seen. I even ripped the audio out so I could rotate it at home.
@37 controversy ensues
@ 44 Awesome! The bouffant encrusted thought police are on the case. I can rest at ease.
AIIIIIEEEEEEEE!!!!!
Hey everyone, I just wanted to let you all know that tonight the Chili’s on 29 is having a Spirit Night for the MS Walk in Charlottesville (which is this Saturday at the First Baptist Church on Park Street from 9am – 1pm). All you have to do is come in to eat or drink and get a flyer from me and hand it to the waiter at the end of your meal. All the bill’s with flyers attached will be added together and they will donate 10% of the total to my Walk team. I have tons of extra flyers and I will leave some with the hostess if you want to come and support. Just ask for the Spirit Night flyer or if you see me in the bar area, just come up and say hello and I’ll give you a flyer. I know Chili’s isn’t the classiest of joints, but it’s for a good cause. Hope to see some of you there
Ayyyeeee!!!

That’s it. I’m gonna train it to attack old bitches.
Brilliant idea! How will it know how to identify people over 29 then?
I said old not ripe.
Meanwhile, in Cardiff, Wales…
/seems a lovely place to visit.
The most popular chain of kebab take-outs is called Abrakebabra (I fuck with you not). They are in every UK town near the late night pubs and clubs, and you can go there at 2am any Saturday night and that is what you’ll see. Makes me misty eyed with homesickness. It’s been sooooooooo long since I went home shoeless with a vomit filled Kate Spade and a telephone number written on my knickers.
Well, see y’all around. I’m off. I have some important things to tend to.
You’re lookin’ good Byo. But the all important question is….are they organic?

Its WMC (Winter Music Conference) time in miami, which means that the worlds best electronic dj’s descend on america’s wang and bust out all their new flavors to hundreds of thousands of people. Very exciting time for folks like me, maybe not for any of you. Still, if you’ve ever heard me bitch about demandy requests (love when peeps ask, hate when they demand), I thought it was interesting to find that no matter what level you play at, the shit never changes. Dig this morsel of celebshit:
The princess of bottle service culture herself, Ms. famous-for-no-particular-reason, Miss Paris Hilton, was publicly humiliated by Swedish house mafia man Steve Angello in move that will leave DJs around the world cheering his name till the end of time.
The LA-based diva turned up at the 1OAK party at Angello’s showcase at WMC on Thursday night/Friday morning, and found his music “was not even danceable and was frankly giving me a migraine.”
Hilton asked one of her friends who runs the hotel to change the music and the manager said between emphatic kisses of her ass, “I’ll lead you up to the DJ booth and he’ll play whatever you want.”
The age old battle between ignorant, over-privileged wannabes, and DJs trying to do their best, just went front and centre. Brilliant.
Angello claims Hilton repeatedly asked him to play hip hop. Hilton claims she only asked him to play Bob Sinclar or Daft Punk.
But whatever went down, it led to a big fight. Hilton’s friend Doug Reinhardt and her entourage got a kicking for apparently slapping Steve Angello.
Angello on his Twitter said: “for someone who claims to make records…dont come into a booth and ask me to play hip hop and then have your doorman slap me. or at least if you wanna do that…..dont moan about it when we all kicked off. dont be so fucking rude.”
Hilton’s response on her Myspace blog portrays her ignorance and self-importance in the ugly light of day.
“The DJ (I don’t even know his name cause he sucks so bad) was playing the worst music ever!,” she says. “I think he was jealous cause Bob Sinclair is a far better DJ then this guy by about a million times.
“He was so unbelievably rude and all because I asked to play one good song. Then out of nowhere his bodyguard (don’t ask me why he has a bodyguard, like he really needs one. Ha) pushed me really hard, that’s when my boyfriend, like my knight in shining armor, stepped in and told the guy to keep his hands off of me. Then all hell broke loose, it was like something out of a fight movie, it was so frightening.”
Whatever the truth, the fact is Hilton thought her fame granted her the right to use Steve Angello as her monkey DJ for the night.
How many times have us DJs been requested to play terrible records by clueless self-serving wannabes who want nothing more than to bask in their own glory?
Steve Angello just stood up for himself and his music. He went head-to-head with the biggest celebrity in the world and won. DJs around the world should rejoice.”

I feel so… so… vindicated.
I saw Gene Simmons selling Dr Pepper Cherry soda on TV.
He’s going from poppin’ cherries rockin’ Roll lifestyle to selling Cherry pop.
My only hope is that the bands of my youth will not suffer such a fate. Yeah, fat chance.
Henry Rollins is in town. He just walked by my desk. OMFG.
Henry’s the shit!
I’m still in shock. He looked old. But he’s still awesome.
Black Flag was 100 times better pre Rollins. Discuss.
Is there a poetry reading out there Shen?
I wouldn’t even know what Balck Flag was if it weren’t for Henry-Sexy-ass-walkin-by-my-desk Rollins.
@ 81 Point taken.

Love that DofWC footage!
That movie changed my life. When I was in Jr High School, I always wanted to be Japanese, because all the cool kids were Japanese. I repeatedly failed at life at that point because my hair would not feather like asian hair, and my fams was too poor to afford real Sir Jacks, Member’s Only’s, Famolares or Snoopy Initial Pins. Despite my shortcomings, I managed to finagle a date with the lovely Akemi Tom. Off to the movies we went, but again I failed as I had read the movie listings for the wrong day. The movie that played instead of whatever we were supposed to see was Decline of Western Civilization, and we decided to see it anyway. She was disgusted, but I, I my friends, had found my people and never looked back.
/”I guess… I guess I like making a spectacle of myself”
I wanna smell him.
/did I just sayt hat out loud?
OMG he’s outside!
No, I shook his hand like a dumbass and put my arm around him for a photo. Then I leaned my head on his shoulder. He was probably like, WTF is she doing?
@ 94 Well? Did he smell like stale beef-a-roni, asphalt and rage, just like you hoped?
He smelled like fabric softener.
Here’s crappy cameraphone evidence:
I mean here
Yeah yeah yeah… Black flag blah blah blah. Good and all, but they are definitely no FUSBI.
FUSBI: Great Band, or Greatest Band?
/could it be real? could it?
@99 – now that’s a manly jaw. Damn Shen… you lucky, girl.
/happy to have seen them many times back in the day…
Apparently oy was in Michigan last week, and shenanigans was “working” from California today.
He doesn’t seem like an easy man to please, from a woman’s perspective, at least (isn’t that…reversed?).
Regardless, I really think that he’s a cupcake. A cupcake that’s been left one too many times on the counter and his sugar-y yumminess has become all hard and crusty…but you know somewhere in the deep inside of that crusty cupcake, he’s still soft and gooey waiting to be discovered by some love-starved woman who comes across it in a midnight munch quest and knows she shouldn’t partake yet is pleasantly surprised when she crunches into it to find that lovably creamy and sensitive goodness.
/It should just so happen I haven’t been able to stop making faces at myself in the mirror when brushing teeth or putting on mah face and singing “Liar” for the past week…I really hoped it was out of my head and replaced by Run To The Hills by Iron Maiden!
@ 103 And THAT is why there are so many lonely men and women.
haha What part? The making faces in the mirror while exaggeratingly singing Liar or trying to make food analogies out of the unneccessarily torturous experiences men and women put each other through? Orrr…do you possibly mean the reason why there are so many lonely men and women is because no one takes a chance? In the night. With a cupcake.
Speaking of celeb sightings…while I know not neccessarily the celeb(s) in question, this dude that just walked in could totally pass for a mid-90s David Copperfield/late 80s Richard Marx. Uncanny.
Henry Rollins is a studly mofo.
@102: I know you like to imagine me eating balls but it ain’t happening irl, buddy.@
@103: He was pretty soft and gooey
Hellloooo, spicy bear peoples. Why is there a link to CvilleMUSE, when it doesn’t exist? Is it there to confuse drunk people? Just curious.

I mean how else are you going to kill an animal.. poison it? Nuke it?
@ 123 Emotionally neglect it until it kills itself.
On “The Fifth Down,” the New York Times football blog, a guest contributor posed a provocative question : If you had to give up your beloved pet, would you be better off giving it to disgraced quarterback Michael Vick (of dogfighting notoriety), or Ingrid Newkirk, the president and founder of PETA? Answer: If you truly care about the family pup’s welfare, you should keep it as far from PETA as possible.
I posted the will of the PETA’s founder @23 , that says a lot about her. But the truth seems to be they kill a lot of cats and dogs
@123: Quickly and with reverance would be nice
@125: Yeah, they’re overzealous but I don’t think you can posit that they kill animals. Ridiculous.
@127 would you care to read this:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/worldnews/article-1165884/Animal-charity-PETA-accused-slaughtering-thousands-pets-placed-care.html
They’re not an animal shelter. And even animal shelters have to put animals down.
@129 if they are not an animal shelter then why in the world do they take them in. Would you work for a place that killed 95% of the animals they take in?
PETA is not operating an animal shelter, they are operating a slaughter house
@131: This organization mainly funds awareness advertising and writes letters to congressman and companies to stop testing, etc. They are not an animal shelter but people mistakenly dump their animals on them anyways. Why point the finger at the organization having animals they can’t deal with dumped on them? What about the thousands of irresponsible people doing the dumping? Even if this organization is trying to find homes for the animals if they can’t why are they to blame? Blame the people who aren’t rushing to adopt the homeless animals. The only reason animals have to be put down in the first place is because of people who give up pets, and people who don’t spay/neuter. They are the real murderers.
PS Proving a point with an article in a UK tabloid doesn’t really help your argument.
Not a slaughterhouse. More like the dump.
I know you work hard to help animals, for that I have much respect. I can’t help but think PETA looks like big hypocrites.If they are not a shelter then they should simply not take any animals in. How hard is that?
The people doing the dumping are to blame but once PETA accepts the animals they must also accept responsibility for that action. I not saying they shouldn’t exist or they aren’t trying to help. But this is much more than raising awareness. It seems very odd that after all they stand for that they would kill so many animals themselves.
I’ll let PETA explain why they kill animals (humanely) for themselves.
http://blog.peta.org/archives/2009/03/why_we_euthaniz.php
WARNING THIS SITE HAS GRAPHIC IMAGES OF WOUNDED PETS
@134: I guess they feel like it’s better to tak the animals and gas them humanely then to refuse them and have the person shoot or get rid of the animal in a less humane way. Sad but true.
@135 I agree, with you but it still seems strange . We have moved a long way from @127
@136: I’ve worked with animals and at shelters so I know how overwhelming it can be to have to deal with the weight of unwanted animal lives. I think PETA is doing what they believe is best for the animals. At the end of the day, they are just dealing with other people’s trash. So “kill” seems to be the wrong word to me. If people are so up in arms and throwing out terms like slaughterhouse, they need to pay attention to the walls of their glass house and put down the stones and go adopt some of these animals to help.
So, since one of the SPCA’s finest is laying by my desk may I continue my umbrage?
If every person who is angered by PETA were to do something about that and go get one of these homeless pets, PETA wouldn’t have any animals left to euthanize. Just sayin’.
@138: I’ve got two of SPCA’s finest at home. I’m glad they ended up there instead of at PETA. Not every city is lucky to have as successful a shelter as the CASPCA. But PETA isn’t a shelter and probably gets way more animals.
A good explanation of why the economy sucks right now.
Derivative Markets – An Understandable Explanation
Heidi is the proprietor of a bar in Detroit. In order to increase sales, she decides to allow her loyal customers – most of whom are unemployed alcoholics – to drink now but pay later. She keeps track of the drinks consumed on a ledger (thereby granting the customers loans).
Word gets around about Heidi’s drink now pay later marketing strategy and as a result, increasing numbers of customers flood into Heidi’s bar and soon she has the largest sale volume for any bar in Detroit.
By providing her customers’ freedom from immediate payment demands, Heidi gets no resistance when she substantially increases her prices for wine and beer, the most consumed beverages. Her sales volume increases massively.
A young and dynamic vice-president at the local bank recognizes these customer debts as valuable future assets and increases Heidi’s borrowing limit. He sees no reason for undue concern since he has the debts of the alcoholics as collateral. At the bank’s corporate headquarters, expert traders transform these customer loans into DRINKBONDS, ALKIBONDS and PUKEBONDS.
These securities are then traded on security markets worldwide. Naive investors don’t really understand the securities being sold to them as AAA secured bonds are really the debts of unemployed alcoholics. Nevertheless, their prices continuously climb, and the securities become the top-selling items for some of the nation’s leading brokerage houses.
One day, although the bond prices are still climbing, a risk manager at the bank (subsequently fired due to his negativity), decides that the time has come to demand payment on the debts incurred by the drinkers at Heidi’s. Heidi demands payment from her alcoholic patrons, but being unemployed they cannot pay back their drinking debts. Therefore, Heidi cannot fulfill her loan obligations and claims bankruptcy.
DRINKBOND and ALKIBOND drop in price by 90%. PUKEBOND performs better, stabilizing after dropping by 80%. The decreased bond asset value destroys the banks liquidity and prevents it from issuing new loans. The suppliers of Heidi’s bar, having granted her generous payment extensions and having invested in the securities, are faced with writing off her debt and losing over 80% on her bonds. Her wine supplier claims bankruptcy, her beer supplier is taken over by a competitor, who immediately closes the local plant and lays off 50 workers.
The bank and brokerage houses are saved by the Government following dramatic round-the-clock negotiations by leaders from both political parties. The funds required for this bailout are obtained by a tax levied on employed middle-class non-drinkers.
PETA is bad news because of Newkirk. Many in animal rescue work will tell you that. Many who have worked for PETA will tell you that. Noble cause, noble mission– run by a megalomaniac and gone terribly wrong.
I’m an animal freak, so it kills me to say that and I really wish it weren’t so. PETA has highjacked the dialog to the point that if you question anything they do, you’re automatically an animal hater. Animal rescue involves tough decisions every day, and sometimes the decision is to euthanize. PETA’s 95% kill rate goes incredibly far beyond that. Here’s an interesting perspective on Newkirk by the top expert on no-kill shelters:
http://www.nathanwinograd.com/?p=907
Oh yeah, she’s a freak. But she’s the dictator, not the people.
Damn, that article is biased. So she’s like Hitler?
If the people follow her will, then that’s a problem. Sadly, enough of them are following her will that it’s damaged PETA’s reputation permanently. Sending PETA members out looking for strays to be euthanized is a very serious problem.
Renaming fish “sea kittens” = ultimate in real life troll.
Epic troll is epic.
@145: They send people to look for strays to be put down? That is some crazy fucked up extermination bullshit. Wow.
@146 Sea kittens- everytime I hear that I just think “Where the hell does the sea kitty litter go”.
again, at @147, it’s past your bedtime.
Hey trollface, you can kiss my ass.
@149 What you talkin ’bout Willis?
Look. At. My. Baby. Squirrel. Donk rigged up a cam:
http://www.ustream.tv/channel/squirrelhouse
If you don’t signup, it just says “Off-air.” If you do sign up, you see a curious squirrel in a crate, and an ad about stomach fat. Someone is feeding the squirrel drugs with his bare hands. He’s about to get rabies. Etc.
No Donk just fixed it. He doesn’t have rabies.
Correction, you don’t need to sign up.
I love squirrel cam.
Look he’s eating! Squirrelcams rule.
it’s april 7th and there are snow flakes coming down outside my office window.
this is bullshit.
