fromoneroomaway asked: "As I recall, you sip a cocktail in a restaurant in the pilot. But what food did you order? You are a grown woman of intelligence and distinction. I want to be like you when I grow up and so I need to know what kind of food you eat so I can dream of being able to afford to eat it one day." Omg, brilliant. Nice job :)

An Open Letter To Anjelica Huston Regarding her... →
I wrote this because I think Anjelica Huston needs to know that there are some of us out there who care.
Also:
Please…find a way to make the Marilyn musical all about you. I would take a “Jack Nicholson practicing his lines while wearing a bathrobe” musical number over any Joe DiMaggio-inspired baseball one.

One for One
After you buy Toms shoes online, a message like this pops up:
Now, I’ve always naively imagined that the style of shoe you buy is the style given to a poor orphan huddled in the storm.
These are the shoes I bought today from Toms:
This is my reaction to imagining a child running around an impoverished village in this style of shoe:
I consider myself to be a genuinely good person.

Here's what I know about Gisele Bunchen
What the press has told me:
She’s the most beautiful woman in the world with the craziest body.
She looks down other sports wives.
She told members of her family to pray for Tom Brady before the Super Bowl.
She blames the Patriots Super Bowl loss on her husband’s teammates.
What people I know in Boston who have met her have told me:
She’s the most beautiful woman in the...

The Three Lower Counties
mar-see-ah replied to your post: I read an article of yours on hello giggles and it said youre from Delaware. So am i. What part of Delaware are you from?
I thought Delaware was so small that there was only one part of it.
Ahem, we have THREE WHOLE COUNTIES, Marcia! THREE! That’s why we were called “The Three Lower Counties” during the Colonial days.

Reader's Digest
Last summer, after I did the Annoyance Intensive, I was invited to submit jokes to Reader’s Digest under the Annoyance name (well, my name, but Annoyance will be placed under my name) and I just found out that one of the silly jokes I submitted was chosen for the March issue!
This means I’m the second member of my family to be published by Reader’s Digest. The first was my...

Yes. I have a Hello Kitty debit card.
Oliver just tried to make the whole table tease me for having a Hello Kitty card.
I said, “Yeah. I have a Hello Kitty card. I’ve had it for years. Do you know what it means? It means I make money and have bank and pay my rent and bills on time. There’s a kitty on it. So what?”
And no one made fun of me and Oliver was sad because it’s his birthday and he wanted...

Tears for fears
Last night my mom told me over the phone that she was very proud of me and I almost started to cry.
This is a marked improvement from Saturday night when I told my mom about rejection I had experienced and she told me, “You’re like Barry Manilow. He can’t sing. Have you heard him sing? He’s terrible. But he can write songs. If he didn’t have famous friends to sing...

So, about my Lana Del Rey article...
I briefly checked tumblr’s “Lana Del Rey” tag to see if anything amusing would pop up and I found someone’s long text post criticizing the silly Lana Del Rey article I wrote for Hello Giggles that was only posted an hour ago.
It was really amusing to see how someone who is not me (and who has disabled all asks and fan mail options, thereby making it impossible to start a...

Here, friends, is the first episode of The Sam Dingman Show, with our very special guest, the marvelous Meghan O’Keefe.
I know what you are thinking:
“Sam, what the cripes are you DOING. In the course of the last few months, you have canceled, launched, re-launched, and endlessly tweaked anywhere from three to ninety-seven podcasts. Why in the world should I listen to this, let...

willhelm4food asked: I'm curious as to more of your opinion on "nerd girl"-"nerd guy" relations. And congratulations on the Dorothy Parker project (does that predate or post-date the Alan Parsons Project?); I'm certainly interested in seeing it once April rolls around.
