I slept much better last night after that post of woes.  Silly old brain.  Apologies as usual for the dump and post. 

It's no news to anyone, I'm sure, that the internet is a scary, skeevy, screwy place.  Let's see....

Exhibit ANew Star Wars Disney Figures Coming Soon.  Now, I'm as big a fan of the crossover as anyone, and that Mickey/Yoda statue is kinda cute, and carbon-freezing him is an excellent way to get Donald to STFU already, but...Really.  You had to put Minnie in the Slave!Leia costume?  Gross, guys.  Just gross.

Exhibit BThe Cuchini Pad, for disguising that pesky case of camel toe.  (Now with celebrity examples!)  This chirpy ad proclaims "No bush, no cush!" and offers this solution to those addicted to Brazilian wax jobs and not wearing underwear with their tight pants.  I don't even know where to begin.

Exhibit C:  When you're tired of ratting your hair to ludicrous heights, turn to Bumpits!  I saw this on TV and could have sworn it was a fake SNL commercial.  Do they not realize how ridiculous the demonstrated hairstyles look?  Or, as usual, am I just hopelessly out of touch with today's fashions?  (See Exhibit B.)

Exhibit D: Color blind, or just color foolish?  You be the judge.  I had to do the copy, paste, zoom myself just to make sure that aqua = aqua.

Exhibit E: Little Love This Summer for A-List ActorsHollywood and movies: the same old new thing. )


And finally, news that got my fangirl heart beating very fast:  Chris Pine will sing and have an actual vocal offering on the soundtrack to the upcoming Small Town Saturday Night.  SQUEEEEEE!  (You didn't really need those eardrums, did you?)

And on that note - happy Friday everyone, and for those of you in the US, enjoy our national holiday dedicated to summer fun and colorful explosions!
