Our Top 100

Sat, 09 Jun 2007 05:10:03 +0000

So AfterEllen.com has come out with its own list of the 100 hottest women (chosen by women), and in the prelude to the list, there’s a quick write up on how it differs to similar lists done by Maxim and the such. I really quite agree with the list, except that there would be a few shuffles around:

My #1: Charlize Theron (#43)
I decided a few years ago that she was the most beautiful woman I’d ever set eyes upon (not that I’ve seen her up close and personal but you know what I mean), and I know it’s a rather strange choice for me, since I don’t really like the fair, blonde look all that much.. but oh well. Yes. Charlize Theron is my number 1.

My #2: Jennifer Beals (#6)
If you’ve watched Season 1 of The L Word, I doubt I’d have to explain this.

My #3: Sarah Shahi (#5)
If you’ve watched Season 3 of The L Word, you’d also understand this. However, your heart will break by Season 4.

My #4: Kate Beckinsale (#28)
Now this is the usual look I like. Haha. Oh well. Also explains my previous fixation with Saint from Sugar Rush, but nehnehmind.

My #5: Rachel Shelley (#27)
It seems like my list is TLW-dominated. Hmm. But this one also damn sexy. Wah, you should see her abs. And listen to her speak! And the killer legs. I love.

Okay, that’s all I’m giving you guys for now. Coming up soon would have been Leisha Hailey, Kate Moennig, Erin Daniels (all from TLW too, and you can read Leisha Hailey’s very cute response to being named #1 here), Olivia Wilde (only her picture there sucks) and a lot more of the first 6 or 7 pages of their list. I kept nodding my head in approval while flipping through that list. It’s a good list. With some weird ones. Oh. And Maggie Gyllenhaal should seriously have been given a better representative picture! SERIOUSLY!

EDIT: OH MY GOD THERE ARE SOME REALLY UGLY PEOPLE ON THE LIST! I finally went through the whole list with nana today. HELLO NANA MY NANA’S HOME! And seeing me type this. haha. Anyway. She wants everyone to know that she’s voting #11 – Eliza Dushku. Iknewit.

So I was talking to a friend of mine online about marriage, and, in particular, how arranged marriages still do take place today. (Forgive her, she’s a bit ignorant.) Anyway, after she got over that, she started thinking about how cool it would be if it worked like that for women – if we could just walk into a club and go, “Hmm….. *points* I’ll take that one.” Haha. Goodbye fear-of-rejection forevahh.

Anyway, in my personal arranged-marriage-fantasy, obviously I get to do the picking. I think it would work best if I were invisible (so no danger of being picked), and could just trundle along tapping hot women on the shoulder, collecting a veritable harem for myself.

(PS: Bunny, don’t take me seriously. Weez loves you. Only you! kthxbai.)

In the spirit of graduating (can anyone tell I’m actually super relieved that I’m friggin finally done with it), I thought I’d quote something from my favourite ever musical:

What do you do with a B.A. in English?
What is my life going to be?
4 years of college,
And plenty of knowledge,
Have earned me this useless degree!
I can’t pay the bills yet,
‘Cause I have no skills yet,
The world is a big scary place!

Here’s the song for all of you who haven’t managed to watch it/don’t know what I’m talking about. It’s really only the first minute that’s applicable, but it’s a super funny song anyway. :)

Do more people prefer to hang their toilet rolls over or under? (Pictures taken from this funny post.) Also, I found a couple of polls here and here, which I find quite amusing, and also comforting – in that I’m not the only person thinking about this.

Next, does everyone FOLD their toilet paper into a square/rectangle/some other quadrilateral, or do you just scrunch the lot up before you er wipe?

In case anyone was interested to know – and also so you don’t feel so self conscious about answering – I’m an over-roller, and I fold. My rectangle’s usually either half or two thirds the size of a normal square of toilet paper.

Haha. I should probably get back to work. Anyway, I look forward to hearing from you.

Edit: HAHA apparently there are plenty of toilet posts around the world of the intarweb. This guy did a survey on how people WIPE. Hilarious. Front to back, back to front, wetting the toilet paper, sitting, standing, squatting, half-half. MAN.
