I heart a League of Their Own, and I can understand why the little unicorn dog with cowboy boots might be tempted to draw a knife after such an argument. See more of these charming illustrations, and many Tegan and Sara, or is it (Sara and Tegan?) videos on her blog.
L: Blah, I have such a girl crush on Lady Gaga
D: Hah
D: Woodie can talk you through that
L: Heh
Sorry to do this twice in a row, but it'll be a daily thing for a while...I know how everyone has missed PopCultured popping up in their Google Readers and RSS feeds! Also, I'm pretty sure there'll be an AI and Glee recap to look forward to today!!
Today I joined Columbia's gays and straight allies for an afternoon of sign holding and cheering. Here are some pictures...
David and I have been getting a lot of flack recently for our "slight" to the Duck Tales Theme song. In all honesty, we forgot to place it on the original list--the only reason it got added was because I couldn't find an acceptable version of the SNL intro. Glad I got that off my chest. Right now I'm sitting in the Charlotte airport waiting for my 1:40 take off and I'm trying to think of a way to appease the Duck Tales Gods (and Girl Woodie and Tug). All I came up with was sharing the wikipedia synopsis.
From Wikipedia:
The show features the adventures of Scrooge and his nephews. The nephews, who were originally living with their uncle Donald, are left in Scrooge's care when the former joins the Navy.
Though Scrooge is the richest duck in the world, he constantly tries to find ways to increase his wealth. Many episodes involve protecting his wealth from villains who want to rob Scrooge of all his money. The prominent recurring antagonists in the show include the Beagle Boys and Magica De Spell who are always finding ways to rob and swindle Scrooge and his nephews. Scrooge's nemesis in the show is Flintheart Glomgold, who always tries to devise plans to dethrone Scrooge McDuck from his "Richest duck in the world" title.
What a fascinating show. As my dear friend Rebecca "Soul Glo" Morrell will most likely add, Donald Duck didn't care for pants, which leads me to ponder his decision to go into the Navy. Don't ask don't tell, indeed.
For my inaugural post, I feel I should mention the humble beginnings of this blog. David Burch and I lived together in New York City for one year, and when I moved away, we couldn’t stand not talking everyday. Instead of staying on the phone with each other 24/7 we pretty much talk on ichat for at least 8 hours a day. This sounds worse than it is, David and I can multi-task pretty well, and it’s not 8 hours straight, just approximately 8 hours a day.
These conversations vary in topic, but are usually related to pop culture in one way or another. The first time we discussed starting a blog, we were discussing the whereabouts of a secondary character from the early seasons of Full House. This Character, Walter, lovingly nicknamed duckface, has actually done pretty well for himself…
How did Walter figure into the formation of this weblog you ask? Here's the strange, but true answer: David and I discussed his fake romantic future with Stephanie Tanner/ Jodie Sweeten, and thought about how fun making up celebrity gossip would be in blog form.
After a few months of saying “we should really start that fake celebrity gossip blog,” I got a text from David asking if I was interested, for serious this time. So of course I said yes, and here we are… Girl Woodie did a fantastic job with our little logo, and the description of our blog makes us sound super cool—I imagine the dozens of readers we are expecting will often be weirded out by David and me, but what the hey…
