We just like to plug ourselves. →

Ate here on the first (open to the public) night. So good. Must go back a.s.a.p.

claviusrobinsky asked: Yeah, the knowing you for 20 years thing is making me wonky. I suppose this graying hair isn't an illusion. I actually plan on never getting old.

claviusrobinsky: I’m still timid about establishing relationships and communicating with some of you here. I am a big fan of respecting boundaries and I worry sometimes that I have crossed them. Should I get misunderstood or come off the wrong way I think my first response would be ‘Ask Erin, she’s known me forever and I’m not a creepy stalker, cheater, hater, misogynistic, gay bashing pedophile...

Who needs a unifying theme anyway?: Just quickly. →

indefensible: Despite living in the same city and moving in very similar circles, I’ve don’t really know Clem Bastow. We met really briefly once at a music festival a few years ago, but that’s it. Clem’s an ‘internet person’, I guess. So this might seem really strange to say, but I just wanted to say how… Yep.

beefranck asked: You're hilarious and nice and that Tic Tac gag that was yours and not Ross' makes me laugh out loud every goddamn time I think of it.

Just wanted to say so. Okay bye!

Maybe if you didn't have such a nice car, it...

indefensible: I guess one of the reasons I’m so behind the SlutWalk movement is that the logic of victim-blaming sickens me. If you say that women (and men) wouldn’t get raped if they didn’t dress ‘like that’, then you’re redefining rape as a supply-side issue instead of a demand side issue. “If only those people weren’t so rape-able, then maybe rapists wouldn’t be so rapey”, seems to be the...

i fucking need this. →

natuhtack: an “i heart long island” necklace by an independent artist who, like many others, has been robbed by urban counterfitters. i mean outfitters. sorry. I just ordered the last Australia one (for a gift) and a California one (for me!). The UO copies are terrible, too.

claviusrobinsky asked: Hey, do you remember that time we were doing lines of coke off a dead strippers ass?

Disclaimer

No, I have not had Botox. If I ever need it, I’ll try it, and knowing me, I won’t shut up about it and I’ll turn it into a party trick*. “Make me angry, go ahead!” “Look, I’m totally angry! You can’t even tell! HAHAHA!” “Now I’m surprised! Now I’m sad!” *When Botox is done well, it doesn’t freeze your whole...

thetaoofpaul asked: Hey, Erin.

As you are the guru of all things cosmetic I would like to ask your opinion of something. A friend of mine (yes, really - this isn't about me) is wanting to get botox to get rid of a couple of wrinkle lines (which I can't bloody see) in between her eyebrows. My gut reaction is 'NOOOOOO FFS!' but I don't really know much about it.

1. Groups, as always, because then I would follow loads more people. 2. A running list of your replies and the posts you replied to, because god damn if my memory isn’t starting to go and people will reply to something I said on a post of theirs and I have no idea what I wrote. OR MAYBE it wasn’t me that wrote it and I have the Sybil-crazies and if that is the case, can someone tell...

petervidani: When someone says you should do voice work in cartoons, they’re politely asking you to leave. Ha! Since moving to Australia, I get this all the time. I think it’s code for, “You have a really obvious and annoying American accent.”

Best Mexican food | Melbourne →

isay: Hmmm…I’m sure Erin can critique this. Already did on twitter. My friend Jess already took on the Taco Truck. HiTech Burrito is awesome California-style, unpretentious goodness, straight from San Rafael. They need to open more locations. I love them whole-heartedly. Los Amates is traditional Mexican, but a little too traditional for this SoCal girl. Would I eat cactus tacos in Mexico?...

This one’s a hit. (I have no idea what to call stuff anymore. Web-mag? Blogazine? I give up)

I'm going to this tonight →

I have no interest in dinosaurs, but I figured “why the hell not”. A friend is getting the tickets and picking me up, so all I have to do is dress myself and walk out the door. Score one point for choosing to do something other than sitting on my ass alone at home while Ross is away (which is quite possibly one of my favorite activities, but I know I do it too much). I’m going...

Call For Restrictions on Oxycodone →

If you want Oxycodone, just tell the doctor you’re allergic to codeine. I actually am allergic, so they gave me two lots each of Oxycodone and Oxycontin (the extended release version) after my tonsillectomy in 2009. I ended up having a bunch left over and gave them away to a friend whose eyes lit up like a Christmas tree when she found out I had them.

I'm scrolling through Tumblr. Some nude chick is...

indefensible: “Man! Look at them fucking udders!” I’m not at my most eloquent pre-coffee.

We have too many inside jokes.

Erin: So, we'll have dinner Wednesday?
French Friend in French accent: I'll check my [work] roster.
Me: Check your oyster?
French Friend in French accent: Ro-ster!
Me: Roaster?
Erin: Kenny Rogers?
Me: So, you have to just check in to see what condition your position is in?
Erin: [loses shit]
French Friend in French accent: [quizzical dog face]
