so help me god though if Gary Oldman doesn’t win
I haven’t seen shit except for Bridesmaids, so I’m cheering for whomever/whatever in each category has the best track record of awesome work in my mind.
Oldman was brilliant and I am rooting hard for him. I can’t believe he’s never been nominated for anything else.

People are assholes.

I’m glad no one else has ever made a mistake, and that people feel so comfortable being total dicks when something goes wrong.
You are awesome and the assholes can suck it. Don’t let these jerks bring you down. ~*~*~*~*~*

Well.
I finally figured out the secondary reason I will always hate Rick Santorum.
First reason, obviously, is that he hates and fears women. Duh.
Reason two? He said that, paraphrasing, that his position is to see whatever Joe Biden was for and then be against it.
So he’s vehemently anti-hotdogs then. This motherfucker is truly un-American.

The only legitimate reason to end a communication with “Cheers!” if you are American is if you’re being a bitch on purpose.
I mostly know douchebag guys that say this. God, asshole, stop trying to make “cheers” happen.
My acquaintance who regularly signed off this way (on the phone even,) also called people bro a lot. Coincidence? I think not.

I’m in a cheeky mood, so…
Aries – Place someone above them. Be first to get what they want. Turn everything into a contest and win. Call them a coward. Make them wait.
Taurus – Hide or damage their valuables. Use their stuff without first asking permission. Take their money. Starve them. Give them food that looks, tastes or smells unpleasant. Give them a gaudy or cheap...

Dear Men who Like to Have Sex with Women and Are Capable of Impregnating Them,
I have noticed that quite a few of you are complaining vigorously in the comments sections of various news articles about the recent contraception coverage Catholic kerfuffle.

I think it’s going to be my polish for Super Sekrit Meeting tomorrow. Or do you think it’ll be too shocking? I want to be pretty toned down since I already have blue hair.

I had a vivid flashback dream last night of one of the worst beatings my ex ever gave me. As my therapist is encouraging me to talk about each memory as much as I can, I’m going to do so here. It will be graphic, so it will be below the cut. Thanks for letting me share.

ginger—gal:
Agree on ALL THE THINGS.
Seriously. Tilda Swinton and Michael Fassbender didn’t get nominated, but The Help is a contender. WTH?
The only good surprise was Gary Oldman for Best Actor, which was well deserved for Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy.
DON'T PANIC.

Man, I want to go see another movie just as enjoyable as Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy. Why are there not fantastic movies playing all the time? (That won’t fucking kill me the way I am sure War Horse would.)

I need to say one more time (and probably not for the last time) how much I enjoyed Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy.
Methinks I need to see it again in short order. It was so grim, dark, sweaty, and rainy. One gets the actual impression of London, which is usually portrayed in a shiny sparkly manner…
