Don’t worry; be happy




Hello, Ducks!

Starzina Starfish-Browne here with your Eric’s Daily Horoscope for FridayFridayFridayKissUsQuickWe’reRebeccaBlack(WhoIsClearlyNoJustinBieber(HerDickIsBigger)), March 30, 2012.  Happy birthday to Mark, who turns twenty-four today.  Also, happy birthday to Aileen, who also turns twenty-four today.  Also also, happy birthday to any friends of yours whom We do not know, who happen to be turning twenty-four today.  Why’n’t’cha go drop this link http://youtu.be/jy65nirv_BM 
 on their SitOnMyFaceBook pages and wish ‘em happy birthday from Us?

In addition to all of the above happiness, Happy National Cleavage Day to all of Our str8 boi (and lesbian) readers.  No, We are not making that up.

If you go and look at the following, and donate, you could be the one who puts these fine young gentlemen over their KickStarter goal, as they are just one pubic hair’s breadth away.  Which is fortunate because, at least in Mister Bieber’s case, that one pubic hair is all he’s got.  We know; We’ve seen it.  And trust Us, it cannot be unseen.  He’s got a little ribbon tied on the end of it.  And a couple of beads. Stupid little white boy, trying to go all Rastafarian with one pubic hair.  Somebody needs to tell him there is no singular of “dreadlocks”.

(You do realize that you’ve just spent the last thirty seconds of your life thinking about Justin Bieber’s pubic hair?  Good thing it’s FridayFridayFriday.)

In case Our digression confused you, this is the KickStarter in question:


Here, meanwhile, are several WaitStaff sketches to pass the time while you are waiting for the weekend:



And have We mentioned Our latest video?  http://youtu.be/jy65nirv_BM 

This just in:   SitOnMyFaceBook has come out AGAINST suicide.  We feel better already.

And here is a HorrorScope:

You need to clean and organize today (All things considered, We’d rather queen and euthanize.)

— at home, at work or maybe just your car.  (We already have the last two so organized, you’d never know they’re there.)

Things should feel a lot better if you can find a way to clear out some clutter and make room for something new.  (Things would feel even better than that if We could make room for something nude.)

Your intuition has been very keen lately, (That’s what We’ve been thinking.)

(Heh.  See what We did there?)

(Oh, shut up.)

and you’ve sensed that someone close to you is approaching a breaking point. (And We’ll be right there to pick up the penises…er, pieces.)

So you won’t be surprised (SURPRISE!)

by a sudden emotional outburst today. (Nobody expects the Spanish Emotional Outburst.)

(That joke worked better yesterday.  No, really.  Go look.  We’ll wait.)

(See?)

Try to be there for this person as much as you can — spend some time listening to and talking with her or him. (Why would We waste time with somebody if We can’t even tell what gender they are?)

Just by being there and presenting a calm, sympathetic demeanor, (Where the FUCK are We gonna get one of those?)

you can show a friend that things are not quite as bad as they may seem.  (They’re actually much, much worse.)

Can you just be friends after dating? (How the hell would We know?)

No, it didn’t work out in the bedroom, but that doesn’t mean you can’t start anew. (A new what?)

You and this person have more in common than you think — it’s a matter of redefining the relationship and the expectations. (Great.)

(Yesterday, Ibsen jokes; today, a Dickens joke.  Next week, dirty limericks with Marcel Proust.)

Take. On. Me. Take. Me. On.



Hello, Ducks!

Starzina Starfish-Browne here with your Eric’s Daily Horoscope for Thurzdet, March 29, 2012.  That there was the Frawnch spelling, as in “ballet” and “bidet”.  Not to be confused with Tori Spelling, doing ballet in the bidet. Which would be a whore of another scullery.  Which is similar to a horse of another color, but charges by the hour.

Now that We’ve cleared THAT up, didja know that if you took all the blood vessels in your body and laid ‘em end to end, you’d die?  We just learned that on the WorldWideInterWebNetz this morning.  Meanwhile, if you took all the sorority girls in the country and laid ‘em end to end, nobody would be a bit surprised.  Thank you, Dorothy Parker.

We should just throw in the towel and devote the rest of today’s e-pissode to Dorothy Parker quotes.  Clearly, all her mots were bon, whereas all Our matzoh balls. (Dorothy Parker would never have said that.  In fact, she would most likely have had no idea what the hell We were talking about, and she probably would have smacked Us.  Fortunately, she’s dead.)

And We are off, once again, frantically turning chicken shit into chicken salad…

Go look at Our latest video:  http://youtu.be/jy65nirv_BM 

Here are some things on which to click, should you mayhaps have an itchy clicky finger.  Or an achy breaky heart.  Or a penchant for saying “mayhaps” while wearing assless chaps and playing craps. (You think THAT’S bad?  We tried but failed to work “Pap smear” into that sentence.  Orange you glad We didn’t say banana?)




And here is a HorrorScope:

You need to deal with a situation that is somewhat imposing  (Nobody expects the Spanish Imposition!)

— but your mental energy lets you handle it in a way that impresses all the right people. (Kiss Us quick, We’re Uri Geller!)

Make it look easy and you can move forward quickly.  (Nothing is as easy as We are.  Now if only someone would give Us an opportunity to prove it.)

If you’re keeping your thoughts to yourself (We have no thoughts.)

because you think it will prevent arguments, (Are not.)

(Heh.  See what We…oh, never mind.)

don’t bother. (Could We get a T-shirt that says that?)

Because if you speak up and unleash your more opinionated side, (Wait…We have a LESS opinionated side?!?)

you will see some dramatic results. (Hedda Gabler.)

(That was a little Ibsen joke.  For Our Ibsen joke fan readers.  Where the hell else are ya gonna get an Ibsen joke?  Henrik Ibsen, Henry Gibson….it’s a fucking Norwegian laugh riot in here.)

The people around you right now not only want to know what you think, they want to discuss it with you. (Good thing they’re all imaginary.  (We do everything the voices in Our pants tell Us to do.))

Get ready to talk about complex issues, (People who live in complexiglass houses shouldn’t get stoned.)

(What?)

and let your personal feelings guide your argument. (Also, let your pages do the walking through the yellow fingers.)

Lead with your opinions, but close the argument with facts.  (Well, alright, but if We’re gonna argue with Ourself, We’d better at least win.)

You may be turning your energy to household matters, but your heart and mind are busily processing what’s been going recently in other areas. (Sounds like all of Our multiple personalities have multiple personality disorders.  Pity the poor waiter who gets Our table.)

Prepare for an ‘a-ha!’ moment regarding your love life. (Apparently, the 80s band A-ha was also Norwegian.  So there is a theme.  Shut the front door, Nora!)

(That was another Ibsen joke.  But you knew that.)
