This baby has more rhythm in his tiny little ass than I could ever hope to have in my tiny little ass. I love his sassy attitude, as he points to his invisible crowd of admirers:

Ur hat iz stoopid.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: love kittens, hate cats. Why is it that cute kitten videos are always entertaining?
Hope your Monday was as productive as mine!

six degrees of john mayer’s manhood.
Thank you, GQ, for this brilliant and way too entertaining chart. (Click to enlarge)
I love how it connects Sarah Silverman, Jimmy Kimmel, Matt Damon and Ben Affleck. Remember that?

Thanks to ex-Guest Blogger Madeline for the tip! (And Kelsey before that. But I only watched when Madeline sent it. Because I actually like her.)

newest olympic mascots will haunt dreams.
I don’t know why, but people get super excited about the Olympic mascots. I’ve written about them before— and here I am again. So move over, 1996 Atlanta mascot Izzy. Move over, Fuwa, the 2008 Beijing mascots. Ladies and Gentlemen, the new Olympic gold medal winners of fug: Wenlock and Mandeville, the official mascots of the 2012 London Olympic games. Feast your eyes on these!
Somebody PLEASE make the first openly gay Olympic mascots joke, so I don't have to.
Yikes! You might be asking yourself, “What the friggity frig are those?” The article from the Guardian does its best to explain:
The pair are based on a short story by children’s author Michael Morpurgo that tells how they were fashioned from droplets of the steel used to build the Olympic stadium.
Droplets of steel, you say? Well, alright. How… abstract.
Maybe it’s because I’m 24 now (wahhhh) and an old lady, but I don’t really understand the necessity for these new-fangled Olympic mascots. Is the torch not enough for us? If you think I’m wrong, please let me know. Maybe I’m the only one that fails to see the value in a duo of one-eyed, flippered, Nickelodeon-show-reject, don’t-look-if-you-have-epilepsy monstrosities.
Consider your dreams haunted, readership! You’re welcome!
In other news, guess what? Today is Wednesday, which means tomorrow is Thursday, and that’s the day before Friday! Huzzah!

a monday roundup of random stuff.
Just a friendly reminder, courtesy of PostSecret.
GUYS. Guess what? I’m officially done with grad school. Do you know what that means?! I’ll tell you: I get to wear a hood and stand out in the sun wearing polyester on Friday, and I get my nights and weekends back. Let’s celebrate with a collection of assorted finds from the Internets:
- From HuffPo, proof that most people shouldn’t have children and a picture of tiny baby hedgehogs.
- From NYT, a bizarre story about how people aren’t allowed to wear pajamas in public in Shanghai anymore. Kind of makes me want to wear my flannel nightgown to run to the grocery store, just to celebrate my freedom.
- From my new favorite music blog, I Am Fuel, You Are Friends, a free 32-song mix that you should download immediately so that it can be the soundtrack to your summer. (Stomp, clap. STOMP CLAP.)
- And finally, a graphic that rates the trustworthiness of different kinds of facial hair. Never gets old. Beards for LIFE.
Happy Monday, everyone! And a happy belated birthday to co-blogger Kathleen! I think we successfully proved this weekend that your mid-twenties don’t really have to be any different from college. Thank goodness for that.

from the creator of the smize…
Before we begin this post, an important statement from your favorite SWTCTW bloggers: “As of Tuesday, May 11, your fearless bloggers now prefer to be referred to as “intoxibellas”, for so many reasons. We will not answer to anything else. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation. Thank you.”
The world as we know it changed today with the announcement of Tyra Banks’ new project, appropriately titled Bankable Books. Professional smizer TyTy, who claims to be an avid fan of fantasy novels and says she shakes when she enters bookstores, has written (read: paid someone to ghost write) a new series of books that will whisk us away in to a magical land. I cannot even begin to explain… it’s better to post what she wrote.
The story happens in a make-believe place called Modelland – every girl in the world wants to go there because it’s where “Intoxibellas” are trained. Intoxibellas are drop-dead beautiful, kick-butt fierce and, yeah, maybe they have some powers too. (But I’m confirming NOTHING! Ha. You gotta wait for the book.) The story follows a teen girl and her friends who find themselves magically transported to Modelland, even though they’re really not supposed to be there. (Okay, now, that’s ALL I’m saying!)
Modelland has always been a part of my mind and my heart. As you might know, I step into a bookstore and I shake (really!) because I love books so much. Ever since I was a kid, I couldn’t wait to pick up a new book and see what worlds the writers had created for me. I especially loved books with strong girls and women – you know, girls with guts, smarts and attitude – and then one day it came to me… MODELLAND! I’m getting it ready for you through my new division called Bankable Books and now I’m shaking for a different reason… I’m excited that you’ll be able to read about this magical world that’s been living in my dreams for so many years.
Ahem. That explains so much. Clever points for the name… Modelland (in case you were wondering, it’s pronounced like Model Land) must have been a real stretch! Secondly, “intoxibellas” sounds like it could be Italian for “drunk girls”. Perhaps it is. Is it, Mal? Gah, I don’t have all day so I’m going to stop before I really get going. Please share your thoughts on this in the comments section. You owe it to the world.
I just hope the folks on the Nobel panel are taking notice of this literary contribution.

Brilliant! That is all I can say about that.
In other BP related items, the geniuses over at AutoTune the News made a new video with Barack’s ass-kicking comment.
