I’ve noticed a bunch of newbies lately, and I am running out of creative ways to welcome you to the party. So here it is, for all of you: I’ll take your coat, help yourselves to Fig Newtons and Schlitz, the Cheese Whiz is in the microwave, you can make out in the bathroom but not the bedroom, and remember to put the seat down.

As typical for a cVillain week, things got rather spicy. Last week was about banning things (trans fat, bumper nuts and bags) before Armageddon hit. Between our new mascot and the discussion about platonic boy/girl friendships, it was one of our most diverse weeks yet.

Meet cVillain’s new best friend/mascot/logo/punching bag/troubled non-human/imaginary friend:
This little guy will be sending us the gossip, perching above your favorite bars, spreading rumors and, in general, doing what little birdies do best, pooping all over town. He/she is also a Villain as you can see from the cape and mask. Don’t try to unmask him or reveal the bird’s identity cause the code applies.
Now, help us figure out a name!

It all started yesterday at 3:51pm. Parlie wrote about dating a girl from Myspace who was married and in a cult, and 24 hours later, we can’t get enough of the cult talk. You guys asked for a cult post. I’ve done my research, and I’ve got to tell you, after more than two hours of research, I feel really attached to this story. I was hoping to make “I want to be your leader” jokes, but I will leave that to you.
IF you are experiencing depression, feelings of hopelessness, or loneliness, please consider asking for help. It has always been frustrating to me that our culture attaches a stigma to treatment for mental illness and depression, because it’s curable, and everyone deserves to be happy. I recommend local resources like Region X and HELPline (434) 295-TALK. Many insurance companies have greatly improved coverage for counseling, often eliminating the need for hospital referrals/authorization. Now, without further ado, your cult post.
