Good Girl Goes Good


I'm not sure whether I'm more surprised by the fact that Leighton Meester has seen the inside of a recording studio, or the fact that this song has been out for three months and this is the first time I'm hearing about it.

I'm torn. I love me a spoonful of Blair Waldorf every now and then, but this is a little too sketchy for me. It's too reminiscent of the Paris Hilton/Stars are Blind days— I feel dirty listening to it.

Trying to get the bad taste out of your mouth? I recommend listening to this.

The Sassy Gay Friend Strikes Back


The Second City is at it again; this time, I'm not so sure it was a good decision.

Like many people lost in the realms of YouTube, Second City enjoyed brief facebook fame a few weeks back when the Sassy Gay Friend: Hamlet edition began raping my newsfeed more than Farmville. Attempting to do it again, Second City has just uploaded a Sassy Gay Friend for Juliet Capulet.

I'm not a fan of this one, I liked that the first video was far less complicated. I must admit, this new video has a few catchy nuances, but it just seems a bit more rehearsed. Sorry guys, but the smell of desperation is not a cute one.

Hamlet Goes Viral



I didn't like this video at first, but it's just one of those viral necessities that grows on you after hearing it resonate through the sea of office computers about 20 times an hour. Intellectual wit turns me on, and I'm newly attracted to coworkers now after learning that they had a basic grasp of Hamlet.

This video comes only days after I learned about Second City and the truly high-larious things they manage to pull off. Anyhow, Brian Gallivan is a riot. The kind of sassy gay friend I'd like to have one day when I'm pushing 40. Until then, I'll have this.
