August 21, 2009My Top Five Online Dating Mysteries
July 23, 2009
I’m blogging for my pals over at the Lek, here’s a piece I posted this morning:
Howdy all, Schinders here. Been back in the online dating pool a few weeks now, and I’m finally adjusting to the temperature. I’m beginning to remember how this all works. I’ve also seen, and remembered, some things that just seem inexplicable. So, here they are, my top five things that make me go Hmm, the stuff you don’t know why anyone would do, my Top Five Online Dating Mysteries!
- A CONFUSING PHOTO – Why did you post that photo? You claim to be a non-smoker, yet in this picture you’re clearly smoking. Or, I think that’s you in the picture, but it’s taken from so far away, who can tell? Or, wow a picture of a group of guys… I wonder which one I’m communicating with… People, post a photo of you that looks like you, that’s clear, that’s attractive… this is common sense stuff folks… Read the rest of this entry »
A Grab Bag with Some Pussies
November 12, 2008I’ve got a bunch of stuff to share, so let’s get to it!
First off, last Saturday I went to an animal adoption fair in West Hollywood, my friend Jennifer fosters animals and has some kitties that need homes.
If you want a kitty, lemme know.
Second, run out and get Raphael Saadiq’s new album! Formerly of Tony, Toni, Tone, Saadiq grew up in Detroit, the Motown Studios were practically in his back yard, and you can hear it in his sound. Dope dope dope!
Third, need a great xmas gift for someone? Just had a kid and doing a room? Want a groovy peel and stick blackboard just ’cause? Check out Wallcandyarts.com; i’m all about the Rococo Blackboard!
Fourth, yes, I’ll admit that I’m enjoying using salicious titles and tags.
Laughing Happy Friends with Gingham Dessing and a Fish!
October 2, 2008If you know me at all, you know I love me some bad English, and there’s no bad English worse than Asian bad English. Well my girlfriend Mel knows me well, and sent me an email telling me to go here! Now, while I’m not one to follow orders (well, it depends on where you’re givin’ em to me), I trust her. Wow!
I want this tshirt badly:
Now go here!
Mixed Bag
July 17, 2008Another catch up post… life gets so hectic.
Let’s see. First off, I was too right about Black Kids! Not only do I still love Not Gonna Teach Your Boyfriend How to Dance, but the full length album is out, Partie Traumatic, and it’s great! I haven’t been this excited about an album since the first Kooks CD, or maybe the first Fratellis. It’s super 80’s, fun time, party disco. I’m Making Eyes at You is very Billy Idol (can’t help but think it’s a lil’ tribute), and they’re reminiscent of ABC, in the best possible way. Favorite tracks, today, are I’ve Underestimated My Charms Again and Look at Me (When I Rock Witchoo). Same advice as when they only had an EP: run out, buy music, DANCE!
Second: Congrats to DBK!! Not only is he getting married soon – chose a reading finally, Lou Reed – but The Lek is live! What’s the Lek, you ask? It’s a super cool, new dating/social website. So far it’s LA based, but it should expand rapidly. Unlike most dating sites it’s less about who you are and what you’re looking for than it is what you like to do and who you like to do things with. Check it out, they host some interesting events, and if you sign up early (read, now) you’ll never pay to email another member… which ultimately people will have to do. Be an early adopter, make Malcolm Gladwell proud!
I guess that’s it for now. I know I have other stuff going on, but I have to go deal with it. I wish FedEx would get here so I could leave the house. Sigh.
Catching Up On The Catch Up
May 14, 2008
Gak! I’m in one of those terrible phases where there aren’t enough hours in the day to get everything done. Perhaps I should stop sleeping. Short of that… Things get lost in the cracks, like this blog. Each day I think about posting, and each day I go to bed thinking about posting. But here I am, actually writing something for this. So there. But it’s gonna’ be fast.
Celebsighting: One of the Red Hot Chili Peppers at Kings Road Cafe – no I don’t know which one it was.
I’m listening to She & Him, thanks to gal pal Mel. It’s Zooey Deschanel’s band. Super groovy fun; sounds like Patsy Cline meets Leslie Gore meets Carol King. Very 60’s girl group-ey. Girlie as all get out.
Staying on the great creative thought tip, super smart friend Roderic Crooks (he went to the Iowa writers’ workshop y’all, that’s smarts) has a terrific short story up at eyeshot.net, Fuckbuddy.
Right. Now, bed.
Who’s That Lady? Sexy Kate Flannery Lady…
April 13, 2008
The final piece of the Kate Flannery interview is up at No Hiatus. Bon Apetite!
More Kate Flannery
April 10, 2008The second part of the Kate Flannery interview is up at No Hiatus. Enjoy!
The Office’s Kate Flannery Bares All (Or At Least Some)
April 7, 2008I interviewed Kate Flannery, Meredith of The Office, for FanLib’s blog, No Hiatus, this week. The first part is up, the second part will go up Wednesday, and the final piece on Friday. We figured since the show’s returning to air this week, now would be the time to show it. We brought her an edible bouquet; it looked delicious.
After the interview I had lunch with Parker. He ordered a side of bacon, which looked equally delicious.
Full Of What’s Good For Ya
February 17, 2008Still home, still sick. Now I’ve managed to lose my voice, which those who know me might consider a lovely change of pace, but… it’s a real pain in the ass. Since I haven’t been anywhere, I don’t have a hell of a lot to say. It’s been a while since I’ve done a “how I’m wasting time on the interweb” piece, so here:
PassiveAggressiveNotes.com is funny as hell. People submit crazy notes left by coworkers and roommates, and then the interweb rips ‘em a new one. Good stuff.
Next up is the “Blog” of “Unnecessary” Quotation Marks. Just what it sounds like, people send in pix of signs and stuff; makes me so happy in an angry way.
Have you been to Fear the Gay Chicken?
Wanna impress all the other kids at the playground? There are some dope ways to tie your kicks.
And then there’s always the screenplay of Holy Grail to read.
Oh interweb, you’re so full of crunchy, nutty goodness.
Oh My God!!
January 3, 2008New favorite blog – besides this one of course – men who look like old lesbians! Amazing! Hours lost looking at photos. Here are a few favorites:
Brian Setzer or someone’s mom who just came out of the closet?
Rock Star Rod Stewart or Tennis Champ Virginia Wade?
Roger Ebert or fat dyke who knits?
Man, I could do this all day. Sigh. Thanks to Xtine, over at FanLib, for the heads up.
