@Cunning_Linguist: I hope you're kidding with the 50 Cent beef.

On the topic of beef with 50, nobody squashes beef like he does. The man is an innovator.

He either ends up shot 1,000,000x, wearing a blue snuggie and a wig and screaming at amateur porn of his nemesis's baby momma, or doing coke with a pubescent youtube phenomenon who got e-fame for talking shit about him but now is his best friend.

Also, the man was a rap star, but he seems to have mainly made his money in vitamin water.

I just can't hate that.

By the way, #SNL has some seriously horrendous hosts lined up for the next few weeks, so I expect lots of liveblogging in #SNS. Next week is Blake Lively, followed by Taylor Lautner(!!), followed by James Franco (who I respect for the whole soap thing, but seriously?), followed by Jay Baruchel, who I'm not sure has ever had more than four lines in any given movie. WTF?

@fatmonalisa: I think you're undervaluing it immensely, actually. I've never seen as many articles about Taylor Swift as I did after she hosted SNL, not even after she swept award show after award show. Not to mention how popular and even arguably influential it was during campaign season. People talk about how irrelevant it is, and yet they managed to get Obama, McCain and his wife, Clinton, and Palin all on air. That's a hop, skip, and enormous jump away from Rachael Ray.

@DahlELama: Since you opened up the topic, can we briefly discuss the fact that the SNL rerun tonight with Gerard Butler (which is definitely from the current season since those two new women are in this episode) contained a sketch about '300', which came out close to three years ago? WTeffingF is going on with this show? Seriously. (I'm also fairly agog about Baruchel. Whoever manages him is either a very intimidating mafioso type, or, like, a warlock. [Oh my God, now there's a sketch on about 'Braveheart'. I CAN'T.])

@JohntheCraptist: Yeah, basically Butler will be living off 300 forever because it's the only remotely memorable thing he's done. And I say this having never even seen it, but assuming it must be because otherwise I can neither justify this SNL appearance nor his cover feature in Esquire. I actually thought his episode was OK, especially in a particularly bad season, but I wouldn't like to see him host again.

As for Baruchel, I'd put twenty bucks on the warlock. Just the fact that his name looks familiar to me is astonishing and clearly the work of the devil and some potion featuring eye of newt. The truth is, he may have comedic chops and therefore not be so bad at SNL, but I find the show a lot less enjoyable when I'm not familiar with the host's work.

@fatmonalisa: You're right. It's as if SNL has abandoned any attempt to be funny and is now simply about the "gets", as if the mere presence of a novel or high-profile guest host or a cameo by a politico makes the show good. Last night I watched an episode from the second season. In Update, Jane Curtin made a vicious comment about the Tonight Show with Carson being dead after 15 years on the air. Well, SNL has become that Tonight Show.

I had brunch with a friend today and she explained to me the entire narrative arc of the Twilight books--which I have never read nor have any intention to. Apparently (avert your eyes, Twi-fiends!), Edward the Sparkle Vamp gets married to Bella and impregnates her in the denouement of the epic. Say what?! Procreating vampires? How do they do it, given that they don't have one living cell in their bodies? Stephenie Meyer, you need to explain yourself.

Stephanie Meyer is just trying to have a cheeszy teen romance novel "with vampires lite" with no regard to the physical limitations provided by the mythical creatures she's co-opting. I mean, the fuckers don't die in the sunlight?! Bah!

@snugbug: Y'know, I haven't been to NO since I was about eleven or twelve. I actually picked up on cajun and zydeco music while listening to an ACORN-affiliated radio station in college (or soon after). Anyway, to bring this topic back around, here's a video of the same couple dancing to Boozoo Chavis. On one of his albums, the story is told that he was so difficult to work with that recording sessions were impossible without loosening him up with liquor. He had so much to drink that by the end of one song he fell off his stool, so the recording engineer had hide this crashing noise by reducing the sound volume as the song ended -- and thus began the practice of tapering off the music at the end of each track on popular music albums. No idea if it's true, but it's a good story.

Not sure why I was so in love with "You Never Can Tell." There must be something about the mathematics of the chord changes in that song that mesmerizes your brain.. ABBA works that way, too.

@son of spam: Jealous--I wish people would freakin tell me what they want so I don't have to spend hours scouring the Internet in a futile attempt to find gifts that don't suck. My husband, his brother, and his parents all have b-days in the same week of December, so November is always a ridiculous rush to find a zillion b-day and Chanukah gifts for people who were impossible to shop for to begin with. I hate this time of year.

@DahlELama: You know, I've been a fan of yours for a long time. Your comments always amuse me. I was drawn to hinduism by Joseph Campbell. My mother is Vietnamese. My father, American. I found out that where I was born in Vietnam was a Champh (early hindu) center. I believe there is a reason for things and I bow to the laws of karma. I connect with the pantheists, believing that there is a life force that connects us all. All religions do not conflict with my core beliefs. Also, "christians" piss me off because of hypocrisy. Italy, the art and history mostly, is, in my mind, beauty we are lucky to witness. Someone else's soul.

@honey's dead: That's so sweet, thank you! And your background is so, so fascinating...what's funny is that I'm actually much more drawn to places like Vietnam than I am to a place like Italy. Don't get me wrong--I love Europe--but I'm much more interested in non-Western cultures these days. (Or at least east-meets-west cultures.) I went to Istanbul on my honeymoon last year which has thus far been my favorite travel destination (Israel excluded, but that's a different story since I have an apartment and family there), and Morocco and Russia are currently at the very top of my travel list, with southeast Asia right below them.

I agree with you, Italy is the only European country I cared about. I'm much more into countries tourists will have nothing to do with. But my family is in Vietnam so I go there often and take advantage of being in that part of the world to visit other countries. So you are Jewish? Israel is someplace I would love to go.

I know it can be tricky to get in, but I'm pleased to inform you that your Irish pale husband is no likelier to get shot than anyone else; the country is packed with Christian tourists, particularly the French. Plus, young Israelis are obsessed with travel, especially to south Asia, so you've got something in common with 'em right there!

@honey's dead: Awesome. I was raised secular Jewish and I identify with the culture but not the religion. To the extent I can tolerate the religion, I do like the pagan simplicity of the reform aspects. The Orthodox are fundamentalists like all fundamentalists, so no.

I believed the Greek myths in school more than anything, and when I realized they were being taught as "myths," I was like, but that was their religion then, so let's just call this Bible book a collection of myths now.

@honey's dead: What's weird is that I read the book because I'm really into YA lit and am attempting to write it professionally, so I felt like instead of just telling people that Twilight sucks without reading it, I should be 100% sure. So I read it. And it does. Like, the writing is just bad. But what really puzzles me is that it's slow, long, and mostly unexciting. Granted, I'm curious what happens next, but more in a "I started this so now I need to end it" kind of way, mixed with "Well, people love it, so I should see why, right?" than from an obsessive need to see it through because "oh my God, it's all so fantastic and I luv u Bella & Edward 4 eva!!1!" How on Earth did this book become so popular? What is it that people find so compelling? How is sparkling in the sun passable as a sexy trait? I am really struggling to answer these questions and I just can't.

I will, however, admit that I love The Vampire Diaries on the CW, but at least I can explain why.

The first commenter quickly apologized, for which I wanted to shake her so freakin hard.

And when the first twilight movie came out, I did a search and found a page that summarized the whole series. And yes, I read it. It was a slow day at work. It's so poorly written, and even Rice, I thought was cheesy, but at least sorta well written. I found her early books about homoerotic porn, and that's how her vampire books read. Now she's doing the Jesus think which is so weird. Not very well I must say.

Wow, yes, there's definitely been a seismic generational shift in the commentariat over there. It seems to me that the Gawker crowd is more seasoned... here, you can't really tell who's young and who's older, because there's a generally uniform sense of awareness, whereas over there the difference can sometimes be blinding. But to each his/her own... it serves as a niche, for sure.

@honey's dead: The plot is, roughly: 44-year-old man, children's book author/illustrator, falls in love with 16-year-old girl. Anne Rice (she wrote it under the name Anne Rampling) really gets into this guy's head, and she manages to make him not at all as pervy as the set-up implies. It's a love story, and definitely not for the To Catch a Predator crowd.

You mentioned something earlier about Anne Rice's nouveaux Christian phase... I wonder if it's like that old joke: Why do so many old people read the Bible? / Because they're cramming for finals. [snare drum clap]
