THE QUEUE
- The Sartorialist and Garance Dore are going out?! Only fashion bloggers would care about something like that. [Je Ne Sais Quoi]
- Max and Suzanne are even bigger than we thought. Lol Ferguson took those words from the press release. | [jdivision]
- Our new girlfriend just shot for the cover of Maxim. We’re so proud of her. | [FashionIndie]
- Some grown-up drawings of Calvin and Hobbes. Cool but kinda sad. | [Gerry Canavan via Kottke]
- Hey it’s that Jew-Tang Clan Vanity Fair spread all over again! [ABOVE] | [I Heart You]
My New Girlfriend | Malin Akerman
My New Girlfriend is our internet girlfriend of the moment. We kindly ask our girlfriends to please not break up with us as this is a long-term commitment and not just a one-time fling.
I’d say that on the whole, John Cho and Kal Penn have contributed very little to my life. But the one vaunted contribution that they did make to my life is unquantifiable, like the enjoyment I get when eating a bag of peanut M&Ms or putting on socks that just came out of the dryer. Those loveable ethnic stoners gave me Liane, the incredibly hot wife of the hideous Bible-thumping swinger Freakshow from Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle.
I’m talking, of course, about Malin Akerman, the Canadian-Swedish bombshell that’s making comic book nerds everywhere lament their long-guarded virginity as Laurie Jupiter (aka Silk Spectre II) in the new Watchmen film. I like to think that I have a real, legitimate, actual shot at being Malin’s boyfriend because (A) I’m a comic book nerd and read Watchmen ages ago and loved it and (B) I liked her in Harold and Kumar and it wasn’t just because she rocked out with her knockers out. I have as much chance of being her boyfriend as Jimmy Fallon has at being funny*. Which is to say…sliiiiiiiimmmmmm. Better than none, eh?
But I don’t care. Meatballs, flat-pack furniture, Malin Akerman…is there anything that Sweden produces that isn’t awesome? I don’t think so. More of the future ex-Mrs. Worthington after the jump.
Fast backward in time
