@scarcat: My email link is on my blog - cvxn.tumblr.com - hit me there if you like.
@Paladin: Heh. My sentiments exactly. I micturated a little in my thong. (It didn't have to be this way, Gawker... but you never really loved me. It was just about the sex.)
@karion: Srsly. Another great reason to defect. (I bet we can get Wookie there, too. Choire and Balk would never let that same kind of shit go down. Those boys know how to treat their loyal readers.)
@ZiggyStardust: Nick should be so lucky. But he won't be. He'd have a better chance of re-hiring Tionna, ferfucksakes.

If anyone's looking for me, I'll be in my happy place... and here's a parting gift for you all. Photoshopped by the marvellous MercuryPDX.

You mean people are supposed to READ Gawker? I just skim it looking for my @Conbons.
@Midwesterner in NYC: I call your nerdiness and raise:


With the exception of a few shots, that is my hand operating the toys in the above commercial, which was filmed in Vancouver in the mid 90s and I guess re-aired in Mexico at some point. Heh. I used to be rather well paid for top quality hand jobs like that.
And Sean Connery in a blue terry romper.
MCQUEEN! DUNAWAY! Check mate, baby.
(Bonus rad direction from homedawg Norman Jewison)
@Midwesterner in NYC,nightwatchman_flamekeeper:
My fave bit of Wedge trivia, perhaps well-known by now:
Wedge Antilles was played by Scottish actor Denis "Stamper" Lawson in the 1977 film. Denis Lawson's sister Carol McGregor is the mother of Ewan McGregor. So Wedge is Obi-Wan's uncle in real life.


"I'm adjusting your breasts."
I don't know about a tie, but ascot would probably have a lovely peatiness.
@Pinecatz: OMG. Or I could just READ.

Rusty pipes. Sorry.

Rack it up to experience, right gals?
Damn, guess I wasn't mean enough to Sorgatz to get killed. ;)
@Nick Douglas: That's a puppy-tossingly bad idea if I ever heard one. What colour is the sky on the planet where people will be interested in attending this panel?
I think The Internet wants you to shave your lipsicle, Rex. (Unless it tastes like Krucoff's swimsuit area... in which case, share with the class!)
@raincoaster: I know... thanks honey. You really killed it with your coverage, much more so than I did with my one meagre post. Nice work.
Clouseau & Cato!
@Hez: Off-topic Hez apologizes to Ian for the bad threadiquette and will return to posting clips now.
Bonnie & Clyde!
Hooch! (Bonus: Hanks in manties!)

Also on the topic of sidekicks, I'm hearing a Twumour (rumour via Twitter) that Barack may be choosing Gore as his running mate. Totally unsubstantiated right now, but seemed fitting for this thread!

@raincoaster: Thanks, Rain.
I did have this on my Twitter and Tumblr as of about 14 hrs ago, Ian. I've been out all morning and I guess I just I forgot to tip you. Sigh.
@Aaron Altman: I already did Mugatu! Sigh. I can't keep track of this shit anymore.
