How many hipster jokes does it take until I don’t think hipsters are funny anymore?

Google’s Super Bowl Ad: variation on a theme
Loved Slate’s parody of the Google Super Bowl Ad. So so so much.
And loved Google’s original ad. Because I have a soft spot for Paris. And love stories. And search. ;-)

I’m very desirable
So I received this email from someone named Corinne Mehren:
Hello!
I’am interesting to date with you…. I like to have a new date and I have a serious plans on the future.
About me… I am 29 years old but i did not find my real love. i am working as a teacher in small school, living with my brother and my dad
I can telling you more about me and i want to know more about you…
Buy the way my name is Lyudmila and i would like to send you my pic and if you like, you can answer me on ara4el@yahoo.com
Obviously, I was pumped that Lyudmila/Corinne wanted to date me and immediately shared this love note with Ellie, Liz, and Sarah to make them jealous. Unfortunately, Ellie “Rain All Over Your Friggin’ Parade” did a little research and turned up the fact that Lyudmila is a) a girl — which I’d assumed from the name, but kept my fingers crossed that Lyudmila was the Russian Leslie… or something — and b) wait for it, she’s running an internet scam.*
You can read all about it here, but I’m heartbroken. Here I was thinking this super hot (see photo) Russian loved me for me and now I find out it was all a ruse for some quick cash.
That said, Evan, she appears to be just your type: cute, gold-digging, and desperate…
*I should say that I kind of love that there’s even a site called RussianWomanBlacklist.com in the first place…

JAPANARAMA MONDAY: Need help with Social Anxiety Disorder?
May I recommend this DVD of creepy men staring at you to help you work through your issues?
PS: Unmarried Brother, if we’d known there was a market for DVDs of guys being creepy in Japan, we could have turned this into quite an opportunity for you…

JAPANARAMA MONDAY: Ummm… seriously, Whiskey Tango Foxtrot?
I don’t know what to say about this one. Apparently it’s a Japanese game show where people watch animals accidentally knock over dominoes on their way to get food?
I can’t really criticize since I did watch all 4 minutes of it… it’s oddly captivating. Also, I don’t know what kind of animal “won” so if you do, please share in the comments!

A very bad week
The last week and a half or so has been pretty difficult for me and my family, but Married Brother emailed this link to us all on Tuesday night and I’ve found it a good reminder of the fact that even after hearing a lot of bad news, with strength, determination, and luck, the clouds can part and good things can happen.
As a sidenote, I always say I have the most wonderful family in the world — and I very much do — but I also have some pretty incredible (and extremely thoughtful) friends. So anyway, if you’re reading this and I know you (or even if I don’t), thank you for being supportive and kind to me and my family.

Late Night Battles
I’ve always enjoyed Conan, but I couldn’t really honestly be on Team Coco when, being 100% honest, I don’t watch late night tv that often. In fact, if NYMag doesn’t link to it in Daily Intel, I probably didn’t see it.
That said, in any Conan v. Leno battle, I’m going to take Conan’s side since he’s actually funny and maybe also because Conan is very supportive of the Taurus SHO.
Conan’s farewell show was very funny and very well done — and his final words were the epitome of class… even when talking about NBC. What was one of his major pieces of advice (besides avoiding cynicism?)
