Cleaning Out My Nightstand

May 11, 2015 by WendyB

I was cleaning out my nightstand and discovered this greeting card I bought at the Saatchi Gallery in London last summer. I remember being in being thoroughly entertained by the greeting-card selection that day, but I wasn’t as amused when I rediscovered this today. In fact, I thought, “What asshat gave me this?!” I bought…

Today Was a Good Day

October 20, 2014 by WendyB

Why was today better than all other days? Because Marcel the Shell With Shoes On has a new video out, at last. “Life’s a party, rock your body!”

“Born in Arizona, Moved to Babylonia”

June 24, 2014 by WendyB

While I was at the gym yesterday, Steve Martin’s 1978 novelty hit, “King Tut,” popped up on my iPod. I had to listen to it three or four times. I love that song! Then I raced home to look up the original Saturday Night Live performance. Click the screen cap below to view it. Steve…

US Airways and the Very, Very NSFW Photo

April 14, 2014 by WendyB

I’ve got the perfect necklace for the folks at US Airways, who sent out a tweet that personifies the meaning of “Not Safe for Work.” If you haven’t seen the photo, you can cautiously approach it via this Buzzfeed story. To give you a hint about what you’re going to see, Buzzfeed says the picture…

I’m Waiting for the Obtuse Ottoman Sale

February 22, 2014 by WendyB

I am amused by a giant sign in the window of a Manhattan furniture store. How do they know the sofas aren’t stupid, though? Have IQ tests been given? What if the sofas are street smart and not book smart? And has anyone thought to check the sofas’ emotional intelligence? So many questions here.

I Love My Peeps

October 5, 2013 by WendyB

I’m trying to clean up my computer desktop, which is almost as messy as my real desktop, and that’s saying a lot. I just like to keep files there (on the computer) for easy access. Screencaps are among the things that pile up. I laughed out loud when I saw this screencapped tweet from gorgeous…

Why Ke$ha Does Penis-Shaped Jewelry and I Don’t

August 14, 2013 by WendyB

Let me say right off the bat that I like the singer Ke$ha. Think you don’t know her? You probably do; you couldn’t escape “Tik Tok” a few years ago. I’m entertained by Ke$ha’s dirty-girl image. I was into it when she wore a trash bag to the 2010 MTV VMAs, a la Debbie Harry….
