Emotions with Jon Hamm

Jon Hamm and I have a ton in common. Mostly we both wear St. Louis Cardinals hats.

Also, I work in advertising and he pretends to work in advertising on an Emmy winning AMC series.  So we have that going for us.

Today, my brother sent me http://emotionswithjonhamm.tumblr.com/ that I want to share.  Jon Hamm possesses an unmatched charismatic personality (did you see Bridesmaids?) and is just a cool dude to like.  I mean, look at him.  He is so manly.  Enjoy.

I don't, but other people "do"

I'm hardly a romantic and never grew up imagining my own wedding day.  Barbie and Ken married on occasion, but I was strictly the planner.  "The day" is definitely something on the back burner of what I have in mind for my immediate future.  But when I randomly stumbled across http://greenweddingshoes.com/ today, I fell a little in love and decided to share.

I still stand by the above statement, but looking at pretty things once awhile can't hurt.

Ride it, my pony

Sometimes the literary geniuses of my company's communication department find a website gem and share it with the masses.  Today is one of those days with Dancing Alone to the Pony.  It's a simple concept; people dancing alone to the greatest sex anthem of 1996.

The title of this site says it all: "Dedicated to the solitary soldiers keeping the grind alive."

I picked this one, because of Connie's hilarious attempt to keep it sexy in the wilderness.  Crack kills, Connie. 

XTheText

Allstate.com/xthetext, because I spend an ungodly amount of time working for the betterment of this website and campaign.  Take the pledge, don't text while driving.  Save a life and yourself.  Or else...

Today I was searching for ESPN Spelling Bee outtakes.  (Yes, seriously.  Shut up.)  When I made the below mistake and, in my defense, it was because I was typing too fast.  Google P'WNED!

Anyway, I found them so enjoy!

Things White Theresa Likes

Unfortunately for us all, Phil Punswhatthehellshisname (real name: Punxsutawney) the groundhog saw his shadow yesterday, signifying six more weeks of grueling winter. I was talking to a friend about it yesterday and made the observation that Groundhog Day is something "white people like."

To clarify, this theory was first brought to my attention by the discovery of stuffwhitepeoplelike.com.  It is decidely created around the middle class, happy-go-lucky Caucasian.  Hilarious and fulfilling, the page makes you [assuming you, reader, are white for simplification] think things like, "you're right, I do love wearing my North Face jacket while shopping at Whole Foods!"  If you, reader, are not white than please read and gain material to make fun of your stereotypical white friend.  I encourage it.  Still can't decide if this site spits truth?  Check out the full list of stuff and you'll figure it out.

As a white person of 24 nearly years, it is fair for me to make assumptions about my cracker brethren as well.  I live on the Near North side of Chicago surrounded by the masses.  The area is full of 20-somethings who occupy sports bars on weekends to cheer on their Big 10 Alma Mater in Division I athletics.  Later, they discover new cultures by eating at that ethnic restaurant "like totally recommended to me by a co-worker who loooooves Ethiopian food!  Or maybe it's Indian?"  Still others wear skinny jeans, bitch about conformist music invading Lolla, and bike to Wicker Park to check out a new hookah bar.

Truth be told, I don't find myself in any cookie cutter stereotype.  Oh sure, I'm a Midwest girl who loves burger specials and light beer (especially during baseball!) but I'm also passionate about finally filling my passport or buying a new pencil skirt to up my professional edge.

On second thought, I just confirmed a few things about me.  I happen to love the Onion (#109), my grey New Balance kicks (#96) and living by the water (#51).

I need a new defense.

Pee Your Pants website of the Day!

Sometimes we stumble across websites that make us laugh so hard our face hurts. By the magic of little to no productivity in the office on a Friday afternoon, I bring you manbabies.com. This website causes me sadness that I did not take a photo shop class. Also, great joy as my face hurts so bad from laughing. Enjoy!

another site to share

Sexy People - The Blog. The sweet, sweet irony. Picture is fabulous example of the most beautiful.


Sexy People Blog, share the amazement!

Epic fail!

Liz sent me this new blog and I would like to share it with everyone that does not read this blog! Thanks followers! Cake Wrecks - the most hilarious site I've seen about baked goods in...ever. Here are just a couple examples of bizarre world of caking making. Granted, some are adorable but that's not what I'm still laughing about. I can't even put up the pregnancy cake, pregnancy is gross enough without putting up a stupid yellow cake stomach covered in sugar frosting. Bleh!

Here is definitely one of the weirdest.
