Yowza!

Pin-up recruitment posters, a la Star Wars, by artist Feng Zhu, who worked with Lucasfilms on designs for "Revenge of the Sith"...not that anyone is saying that "Revenge of the Sith" was a good thing.

"I'm too tired to do a roundup" Roundup.

Roundupping is hard work, y'all. Here are a few little things, but mostly, I'm super sorry.

My new favorite thing:


Commixed, but amazing:

THIS IS HOW I FEEL (because it is true):
Again, truth. Any gamer can tell you that.



Batman talking to himself (thanks Adam West):






SOON there will be a teaser for our next Idiot Box. AND Lulu owes you all her thoughts about Star Wars, now that she's seen it. Seriously, bug her.

Nerdy Girl Style Icons Vol.3: Daria

Good news, nobody!

Nerd Girl Style Icon-ing is back! And without further ado, and much sarcasm, I present to you...

DARIA
"Don't worry, she's clearly overestimated my conscious. By assuming I have one at all."

Daria hails from the eponymous show which aired in the 1990s on MTV. She was originally created as a character on "Beavis and Butt-head", to sort of combat the boyish, potty humor with her dry sarcasm, but was so popular that she was given her own show. The show centers around Daria's highschool life, her best friend Jane, her crush on THE ABSOLUTELY DREAMY Trent, and surviving amongst her crazy yet endearing family.

Woo boy, doesn't that sound like a sitcom set up?

This show wasn't the only show in the nineties to embrace some female teenage angst; take for example Freaks and Geeks and My So-Called Life. The outcast genre disappeared for a little while, in the era of Mischa Barton (what was that show again?) and the advent of (bum bum bum) Reality TV, but has recently re-appeared on the big screen (more on that later). Still, since Daria's finale (the 90 minute "Is It Fall Yet?" back in the day), no show has filled the gap that this show left in it's wake.

New Logo?!

Yeah, we're going there. Take a look:

Leftovers Roundup.

Hi kids-

So, Miss Felix started a brand new job this week, and let me tell you... I don't get internet in my room. That's right, playas. I have to leave my bed to internet. Which means this week's roundup is all about leftovers I should probably get out of the fridge.

You get the metaphor. Anyways, please enjoy! Something will present itself to happen on Thursday, we promise.


First, Here is a little diddy about how Lucas is, well, a little sorry for the "prequel" Star wars movies.

Also, this next video, is me. Oops!

Star Whatever.

STAR WARS, as told by Lulu.

So, its no secret anymore that I've never seen Star Wars. I know...I'm a huge movie nerd and that's one of those movies that EVERYONE has seen...but not me! Its not that I don't want to, it just has never happened, and now that I'm older I just never really felt the need to. But, like trying sushi, its something everyone should experience. And I feel like I'm missing out...I was pretty opposed to the idea for a while, because I'm a little apathetic.

There are three main reasons that I just don't give a shit about star wars.

1. I watch Family Guy. Therefore, I've seen their Star Wars episodes and have felt privy to Star Wars inside jokes and references and all that, as the entire cast of FG consists of "Warsies." (Like Trekkies, but from Endor.)
2. On that note, I know enough about Star Wars to get the inside jokes. Who doesn't? Its one of those things that just everybody knows. IN FACT, while we were recording Idiot Box (stay tuned), I referenced Star Wars like a pro. No one needs to know I've never seen it. I'm cool like that.
3. Lastly, and most importantly, there is already one "Star _____" in my life...TREK. Star FUCKING Trek. Captain Jean Luc Picard, and fuck you. Live long and prosper, bitches.

However, in the interest of experience, I'm gonna curl up and finally watch them, at the ripe old age of 24, and finally experience this phenomenon that is evidently some kind of a big deal or something.

So in my limited knowledge of Star Wars, here's the plot as I know it, before actually watching the thing.
