Dear Coke Talk: On fun-sized advice.

Dear Coquette,

After getting out of a relationship, why does everyone seem so unappealing?

Puppet shows are no fun when all you can see are the strings.

I hate seeing those strings. They’ve never gone away..

You see these nerds? They’re getting married today. If you need me, I’ll be at their wedding being an incorrigible mess of a “best man”. Here’s hoping I’m not drunk before I have to give my speech!

The Draper/McNulty/White Conundrum

natashavc:

The elements of your personality that make you good at your job make you bad at everything else.

This is the character thesis of all the leading men. I’m an absolute sucker for it.

I wonder fellas*: Is this something frowned upon or something to strive for?

*Asking, because I know how I feel about this, and wondering if it’s universal.

Criteria - “Mainline Life”

Used to be, in my younger days, I’d be apt to doing the whole “I’m Into You” mixtapes. On the flipside, I was known to also do “I’m Over Crushing On You” mixtapes as well. Now, if you heard this song, much like Ezekiel 25:17, it meant your ass. I’d usually start those mixtapes with this song. I was that cold when I was younger. I was also that deluded. These days, I just sing/listen to this song to myself when the time calls for it. It’s better for everyone.

Your Annual Guide To Holiday Romance

johncarney:

It’s that time of year (again) when even the most independent of lads can get a little desperate for more companionship than one can find in the bottom of a bottle of Jameson’s Irish Whiskey. If I thought it would make any difference, I’d tell you that you should avoid becoming involved with the lasses during this season. It’s just too dangerous, and will almost certainly lead to disaster. But it wouldn’t make a difference. These winter nights are too long and too cold to avoid the urge to spend them with someone shorter and warmer.

So, instead, I offer you this guide to holiday romance.

I can get down with this list. With maybe the exception of #40. The “heroin & absinthe” reasoning doesn’t quite agree with me. Also, the reasoning for #47 is unnecessary. Other than that, yeah, pretty spot on.

(Note: My highlights: 1, 2, 5, 7, 12, 15, 23, 24, 27, 30, 32, 33, 35, 38, 46, & 48)

Is this what it was like in the Way Before Time when Gilda Radner and Gene Wilder were a thing?

I know, like, we all Die Alone per Donnie Darko, but I think boning/spooning Sweet Dee or Mac on the way out is a pretty fine way to go.

That dog probs has a fine sense of timing too.

From a quick interview with Kaitlin “Sweet Dee” Olsen for Elle Magazine:

You recently married Sunny creator, producer, and writer Rob McElhenney, who also stars as Mac. Did you start dating on set?
We were secretly dating in season two, but we didn’t tell anyone. I didn’t want to be Yoko Ono and break up the band. The whole time we were like, “This could go terribly wrong.” But it didn’t. Our first sober date, he asked me to go to Big Bear with him for the weekend. He was living with Glenn [Howerton, who plays Dennis] at the time and told Glenn he was going skiing. Glenn was like, “Oh, I want to go.” So Rob had to say that he wanted to go skiing by himself.

Bullwhipped

I peered into the pit of your soul, rolled over and said, “Snakes. Why’d it have to be snakes?”

DearOldLove is a place I’ve been hanging out at a bit before I started this tumblr. Sometimes it’s so true and hits so close to home I can only say “Damn” quietly under my breathe. Other times, it makes you realize the small or intimate things that happen randomly, just might become largely important later on. It’s definitely one of those half empty/half full sites. For me? Well, depends on which day of the week. :)

This youtube video has blown up in a short time. Be warned: This thing is so happy it’s depressing. Vulture did a pretty excellent write-up on it that you should definitely check out. Here’s a snippet:

That all this dancing is happening at a wedding — the only place we grown-ups ever get around to dancing anymore — adds to the performance’s piquancy. The story it tells is not just the story of Jill and Kevin — though obviously it’s their story too — but of the joy that every bride and groom (or bride and bride) (or groom and groom) has felt as they walked down the aisle. The audience — in the church, and 8 million strong and counting out in the world — feels it. Intentionally or not, as a piece of theater, Jill and Kevin’s big musical number is courtship in microcosm: wildness and improvisation giving way over the course of time to steady, comfortable companionship. A crowd of friends are there to back them up. Out of the storm of many, two.
