Friday LOL: 80′s Dating Video Montage

Mar 1 12

Last month I decided to post a monthly log of my Thursday night Karaoke hijinks. January was much more active, you can check out that post for last months song list (which included some obscure cuts from Babes in Toyland, Dokken, and Peaches.) Only made it out once this month! It was the Thursday before Valintine’s Day, we declared the theme ‘Sad Bastard Heartbreak Songs’ — the goal was to make some sad sap at the bar cry into their beer…

Prince – When You Were Mine

An upbeat sound with some more meloncoly lyrics, one of my favorite Prince jams — and i LOVE the Cyndi Lauper version, which is what is linked here since I couldn’t find the original Prince version on YouTube!

Adele – Someone Like You

I’m pretty uneducated when it comes to modern day music hits, i’ll admit. I only downloaded and listened to this song for the first time about an hour before heading out to Karaoke — and it being one of the most utterly heartbreaking songs I’d ever laid ears on — it was the perfect selection for the nights theme. If the lyrics to this one didn’t make anyone cry, my attempt to sing an actual ‘singerly’ song might have! ;)

Ladies Who Read

Tonight I just learned about the Vaginal Fantasy Hangout. It is a group of 4 nerdy ladies who share their Google+ Hangout discussion of a steamy fantasy books, (book club style.) The gang includes Bonnie Burton, Kiala Kazebee, Felica Day and Veronica Belmont. The later of which is also on the book club podcast Sword & Laser, which inspired the idea to start MY podcast, Pagebreak! Yay for books! :)

Check out the 1st Vaginal Fantasy Hangout, already posted on YouTube.

Friday LOL: Campy Liquid Plumber Campaign (NSFW)

Last night, I set aside my skeptisism and watched the documentary “Art & Copy.” It wasn’t bad, but not exactly good either. Mostly a bunch of old white guys stroking eachothers (and their own) egos. Don’t get me wrong, I think a lot of the work cited in the movie was the best of what comes out of the advertising world, for sure… but give me a BREAK guys!

I’m not anti-advertising… and the thing that is making me laugh on THIS particular Friday — is a commerical!

Some might watch this and think Liquid Plumber is trying to get attention by using a cheap tactic… but I see this as pure comedy… from the moment to woman chuckles to herself in the aisle to the Barry White voice over of some tongue in cheek (but informative) writing, and right down to the produce guy with the melons!? Comedy! I’m laughing! …and if you are a red blooded 30-something woman who likes men, you probably are too.
