Christopher Lantz

Yeah, it was kind of like that for me too. And I've read the books.



coituskid:

megsokay:

adulthoodisokay:

This supercut of people watching The Red Wedding scene is perfect.

TODAY IS MY FAVORITE.

My second greatest regret for this fandom is not taping my and my friends’ reaction to this scene.
My first regret is still not sitting naked on the Iron Throne when I had the chance.

I AM SO UPSET AGAIN.

My reaction was closest to the older man watching alone…

Dan Harmon Confirms ‘Community’ Return

by Russ Fischer

Dan Harmon

There’s no business quite like show business when it comes to people flip-flopping between friendship and antagonism. (Or the business versions thereof.) Community creator Dan Harmon was often famously at odds with the exec staff at Sony Television over his three-season run on the show. After his ouster, David Guarascio and Moses Port were brought on to keep Community going, but while the fourth season kept some people watching, it was deemed to be less than what it was with Harmon’s inspired brand of madness powering the comedy.

So, during the fourth season, NBC had a not all that highly rated comedy that wasn’t even a critical darling any longer. All told, the 13-episode fourth season had the lowest viewership of the show’s run.

And so the powers that be have turned back to Harmon. He, along with former writer and exec producer Chris McKenna, are making deals to return for the fifth season. Harmon’s return was rumored a week ago, and now he has confirmed it.

THR reports that Harmon will act as showrunner once again, and notes that Community will be one of only two veteran comedies at NBC in the next season. Let’s see if they can lure Chevy Chase back into the fold.

The showrunner said via Twitter,

RT @dpeanutbutter: @danharmon GIVE US A STRAIGHT ANSWER! ~ Yes yes yes! I'm back I'm back I'm back. You can thank @joelmchale.

— Dan Harmon (@danharmon) June 1, 2013

Also I would very much like it if @joelmchale @yvettenbrown @GillianJacobs @alisonbrie @dannypudi and @DonaldGlover were somehow involved.

— Dan Harmon (@danharmon) June 1, 2013

And maybe @RashisTVUgly and possibly @kenjeong. I ran out of tweet space. But what have those guys done for us lately.

Hipsters

Christopher Lantz

Lol. spot on.

You may point out that this very retreat into ironic detachment while still clearly participating in the thing in question is the very definition of contemporary hipsterdom. But on the other hand, wait, you're in an empty room. Who are you talking to?

dammitpunk:

No, but seriously… I need some dick. I am so sexually frustrated it is stupid. I get so cranky after a week of not getting laid. Slut problems, I have them.

Don’t feel bad I want it everyday and I only get it from my partner once every 1-3 months… culture makes it seem like men are more motivated and fixated on sex but some of us ladies want sniz on the reg too!!

Middle-Eastern cover of Radiohead's "Karma Police," by Shefy & Sabbah of Tel Aviv

by Xeni Jardin
Christopher Lantz

So good... sorry if I shared this twice.

Rotem Shefy (vocalist) and Leat Sabbah (cellist/arranger) describe this as "Our very own Middle-Eastern version" of Radiohead's 1997 hit "Karma Police."

"What seemed at first a satirical cover transformed into a full-blown middle-eastern version, recorded with oud player Yaniv Taichmann and percussionist Ori Dekel," says the duo. "Video made possible thanks to the donations we received through a successful Kickstarter campaign!"

The video was released about a month ago. Thanks to Boing Boing reader Alex Rozenfarb of Tel Aviv for sharing this one some weeks back on our Facebook page. Sorry I missed it then, glad I found it now.

Brooklyn Hipster Brunch, A Music Video by Bitchin’ Kitchen’s Nadia G

by Rusty Blazenhoff
Christopher Lantz

My dad introduced me to Nadia G (I think he was implying that this is the sort of girl who I would date). She seems to know how to cook so that's halfway there for me.

Jump on the L train and take a ride to the Brooklyn hipster brunch…

Chef and comedian Nadia G of Cooking Channel’s Bitchin’ Kitchen has made “Nadia G’s Brooklyn Hipster Brunch,” a music video about “slumming it straight from the Upper East Side” over to Brooklyn for brunch.

Nadia G riffs on Brunch and Hipsters. Take a guess which she takes a bigger bite out of?
