Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second — the second — that happens, you know I'll be there. I'll slip in, have myself a real good day.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Nobody's doing the flip side of that chart where the acting income is $0--and that's for people you know. Think of all the actors you've never heard of who can't get health benefits.

Very true. The extremes are kind of nuts, and many people who've hit it big have lived the proverbial starving actor lifestyle, some of them more than once.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

One of my friends invented the term "porkflopper" for all the dudes who are walking around Brooklyn wearing porkpie hats, shorts, and flip-flops.

BTW, Brooklyn, thanks ever so much for sending all the porkfloppers to New Orleans last month for Tales of the Cocktail- here's hoping your resident hipster douchbags are back home up north.

New Orleans has enough hipsters as it is, having them temporarily imported made for craziness!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

The Winchesters do *nothing* for me.

Me either, erika.

and I am like unto a limpet clinging to the slimy rock that is my point

I just wanted to see that again.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Heh. I have a friend who won a best margarita competition at Tales of the Cocktail. She's no hipster, though.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

Does her name begin with an A? Because I helped out a tequila tasting that she created a cocktail for! I like her blog, too... (if we are talking about the same person)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Me either, erika.

And you're someone who'll marry Eliot, I'm just... I dunno.

Seriously, of all the FCM results, that one's largest in my mind? I just can't get over not marrying Hardison. Craxxy talk.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Healthma to your brother, amyth.

Punishingly Intricate

She's no hipster, though.

I'm sure someone thinks she is. It's all a matter of perspective.

In other news, I'd really like a margarita right now. Today was kind of hard. I'm such a huge money drain in my household right now. Unexpected car and eye doctor expenses. feh. Also, it is really hot! And my head hurts from having my eyes dilated today. And my back hurts from injuring it at the farmer's market sunday. And wah wah wah wah wah

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

My definition of a hipster is simple: are you someone wearing some item of clothing or accessory as an ironic, cooler-than-thou statment, yet are rolling your eyes at my wardrobe choices? Then you are a hipster.

I realize this definition won't work for anyone else. Sorry.
