So put your daddy issues on hold and text your old man.

Spellign Be!!

I was actually born in New York, but have recently become an acceptable Vietnamese. Before, I was just Vietnamese on the outside, White Girl on the inside. Now, I’m eating at Vietnamese restaurants, hanging with Vietnamese people.

A bunch of friends are going to Vietnam for a wedding this weekend, and when I saw them last night at dinner, they invited me to join. This weekend. Vietnam.

Of course I said yes! After a few hurdles (a passport that expires in 3 months - you must have at least 6 months left- and the price of the ticket and visa, etc…), I’m pretty much all set to go. All I need now is a little help from you.

If you’ve been or know anyone who’s been, please send me recommendations of sights to see. I’ll be in Saigon (HCMC) for a few days, and then on to Dalat for the wedding (as a crasher). And if I make it back on the 24th, you’ll be the first to know.

Tuesday night after President Obama’s non-State of the Union address to a joint session of Congress, Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal was tapped by the Republican party to deliver its rebuttal. It did not go so well. Before he started speaking, Chris Matthews was heard off-camera muttering “Oh god” as Jindal walked toward the podium. As the Huffington Post pointed out, this response would not be appropriate for another 15 seconds. And before he even finished his brief statement, an unflattering comparison had begun to circulate its way around the web: Bobby “The Government Should Not Pay For Volcano Monitoring” Jindal as Kenneth the Page, from NBC’s 30 Rock. Compare:

I say why stop with this metaphor? Let’s call a spade a spade: the characters of 30 Rock are ALL metaphors for Republican figures. After the jump, a sampler.

Either way, it’s just gross:

“My mom licked me - that was her punishment. If I was a little uppity or if I didn’t listen or if she wanted to get my attention, she’d lick the side of my face or under my armpit. My mom’s a six-foot-tall amazon and she’d say, ‘’You came out of my vagina and I own every part of you,’’ and she’d lick me like I was her wee pup and she was a lioness. It was humiliating and really intense. Very primal. It’s not spanking, but it definitely works.”

-Rosario Dawson in T. But I didn’t read T, I got it from Perez Hilton. I’m lowbrow.

Whuddup to all my Christians!!!!

I’m siked for Lent!

This dude runs shit:

Now Eeez and I can chiiiiiiill…

Brooklyn only. So sorry if you don’t “get it.”

After Proposition 8 got cock-blocked at the polls in California all sorts of web-protest-art-projects started happening.  You’ve see this one right?

It’s from Courage Campaign and they’re all about this:

Take a picture holding a piece of paper that says “Please don’t divorce us,” “Please don’t divorce my moms,”"Please don’t divorce my friends, Dawn and Audrey,” “Please don’t divorce Californians” or whatever you want after “Please don’t divorce…” and send it to: pleasedontdivorce@couragecampaign.org.

Simple enough, but in order to get this 2009 meme train a-chuggin’ I started these:

My Two Dads was pretty controversial for its time.  I mean, that guy on the right left his wife Helen Hunt and started hooking up with Dr. Stonewash on the left and adopted Chloë Sevigny.  Snap, snap, snap.

Next:

You’re right.  That’s Corky from Life Goes On.  Remember that show?  I can’t say “retarded” on the internet right?  Hmm.  Anyway he’s now the singer in a band with Mr. and Mr(s). Denimshirts.  You can see a video here.

Finally:

It’s not illegal to have three dads in France.  Three hunky, sexy, hairy, gay dads.

Alright internet.  Here’s your chance to party.  Download the “Please don’t divorce my dads!” Photoshop file and meme-erize your favorite Google image searches with two or more dads in ‘em!
