“Two days before our visit to the Cartoon Network, I got to watch the architect...”
– Hey mom, I’m in the New York Times this Sunday because they did a profile on my manager, Peter Principato, and followed him to a meeting where we pitched a show to Adult Swim. The profile will be in the NY Times Magazine, and it’s an interesting read, especially if you’ve never...

An editor working on a project in the next suite...
Editor: How are you even still awake? Me: I’m on my eighth wind and thank christ for the free coffee. Plus, I think it helps that there are no windows anywhere, so my biological clock can’t really tell how long I’ve been here. E: How long have you been working straight? M: Well, I’ve been awake for 32 hours total, but I’ve been here working on this for 29 hours,...

Sometimes
When you’re at an old post-production building at 4:30 in the morning and you forget that the bathroom door takes a very long time to close behind you and you go into the bathroom and 30 seconds later hear the door make a loud sound and peek out of the stall and no one is there and the hairs stand up on the back of your neck and the bathroom automatic air freshener decides to pick that very...

AP Style Convention Amendment Proposal
The phrase “Senator Mitch McConnell said,” such as in the sentence, “Senator Mitch McConnell said that he would vote against the new arms control treaty with Russia,” is henceforth to be expanded to include “through his long and terrifying jowls, glistening with moisture like the skin of a freshly baked ham, shimmying and vibrating with his every spoken...

Sexomnia or Sleep Sex →
Alison Agosti: Minus the sexual assault, this seems like the best sleep disorder in the world.  I just watch cat videos until 4 am :-( I have this disorder. It’s not really fun because you don’t remember doing anything, and it’s really bad for the person whose boobs you are trying to grab when she has to be up at 7am and you get to sleep in because you’re a...

Want to come to a party tonight?
I’m shooting a thing for MTV tonight and we’re putting together a house party scene in Hollywood. There’s no pay, only some food, drinks, and the guaranteed stardom of being an extra. If you’re over 21 and you want to be a partygoer, email the producer. I’m also looking for anyone who wants to help out with crew (I have two paid positions left to offer). If...

“The problem with Hollywood is that nobody works. They have meals. They go to...”
– Ryan Gosling on Los Angeles, CA. (January 2011 GQ) Only a pretty-boy actor would have the balls to say that nobody works in Hollywood. Only actors don’t work. The rest of us work our asses off so they can look good. Fuck you Gosling, and fuck anyone posting this quote like it’s some...
