This Day in Pop Culture, according to Raybear

[raybear]

1. No one told me there was a new Magnetic Fields album coming out today! Then again, I've stopped reading most music magazines or websites and know nothing about the most current music if it's not a hip-hop/r&b club song.

2. Why am I suddenly intrigued by the Olsen twins? Not in that creepy sexual Maxim's-countdown-to-their-18th-birthday way, but more in that fascination with their marketing empire and their celebrity personalities. I partially blame dommeyourass for watching them on Oprah last week.

3. I think I might use the money in my doggie bank I've been collecting for six months to buy season six of Buffy which comes out in three weeks. I know, I know, I should be saving my pennies (literally and figuratively) for my upcoming period of joblessness, but.....BUFFY.

4. Um, who's going to see Mean Girls? Can I come along?

5. I vote NO on the following propositions:

The Last Samurai
The new D12 album
Copious articles on the ending of "Friends" and "Frasier"
Anything containing the phrase "low carb"

HAHAHA! I'm ALL about discrimihating on dreadmocks. If your hair doesn't naturally "lock", than there should be no dread. Period.

thank you! because "dreadmocks" is now my new fav. word. so much nicer (and funnier) than my old term of "white-girl-dreads".

PS: I'm adding you, because that might be a record of non-friends-list-person I've left comments to in 2 days. Mean Girls... bringing the world together...

Beacuse I don't want to be just another white person misappropiating something, I want to add that "dreadmocks" as a term was first introduced to me via "Ego Trip's Big Book of Racism", which I highly recommend.

ooo... that sounds like a party (in textual form... yes, I consider text a party... who doesn't?). I'm going to have to go pick that up...
