Our Lady DefectiveGeekers uses the word ‘Vagoogoo’ way too many times, discusses Wonder Woman’s bad make up job and Giselle’s undying love for Jeff Goldblum. Apologies in advance for the torturous conversation about smuggling jelly beans in vaginas… but maybe you kinda, sorta want it…?

This post has been triggered by Neil Gaiman’s recent blog entry, in which he used the subject title: “I’m Sweet and I’m Cuddly, I’m Gonna Kill Scully!” I promptly twitted about this and wondered if anyone could guess the origin of those lyrics. I felt like such a nerd when I received no twit back with an answer of “OH I KNOW!”
(Well, at least I know Mr. Gaiman knows what I am talking about. Mental high five, wherever you are in the world right now, Neil!)
Complete blast from the past, people, I listened to those words over and over again when I was a wee teenager enamored with The X-Files and David Duchovny!
THE ANSWER IS: Bree Sharp’s song– simply titled: David Duchovny.
Behold.
And the quality of this next video isn’t very good, but it was made by the X-Files’ crew for David’s birthday. It is worth watching– it’s HILARIOUS.
And now, I hope you are all educated on how incredibly awesome and nerdy (and really sad) I am. I can still sing this song word for word if asked (and if I’m willing, that is).
I’ve finally buckled down and forced myself to learn how to integrate and customize this blog through wordpress… and so far, it has been a worth it transition despite the few headaches and bumps I encountered these past couple of nights. Now, I don’t have to rely on blogger and everything is comfortably nestled here on the homebase!
Not only that, but everyone should welcome a new addition to our bloggers here– Valerie, aka Fortune Cookie! I hope she’ll write about something soon…!!! This place could use some fresh content that’s not from ME all the time!
Thanks to all our phantom readers out there, even if you don’t exist. Watch out for exciting things happening around here (ooh! ahh!)
I think this place should be voted for the most neglected blog in all of interweb history.
Lately, I can’t peel my eyes off Ebay.com, Amazon.com, and many other selling communities I follow. It seems everybody is trying to make a little extra cash by selling everything they own, if you know what I mean. Even I’ve come to selling some of my brand clothing here and there just to buy an original artwork from a favorite artist! Nonetheless, I have always been a poor, starving artist/geek so this economic crisis we’re suffering in isn’t really making any sort of difference in my already sad state of income.
In fact, I’ve snagged some low-priced DVDs off of Amazon sellers– V for Vendetta and Planet Terror for both less than $20!
Nonetheless, hobbies have suffered from all this lack of money. I’ve quit cosplay and anime conventions. I’ve narrowed down my conventions to basically San Diego Comic Con… and that’s about it! I would still consider WWLA, but it all depends if anyone will actually be there next year.
There is kind of a void in my little nerdy heart– especially since I don’t even buy as many comic books as I would like to these days. Maybe I should stop buying used brand clothing on eBay, right? Girl and Geek– both sides in constant battle!
Anyways, as always, I promise to think of a way to make this blog and website more interesting in the future!
No one reads this blog, but we like to pretend people actually do! I get pure enjoyment out of it, despite the fact that the only other person writing is the website co-owner, Mjade. Isn’t she fabulous though? I enjoy her entries way too much– especially the last one about The Golden Compass.
It reminds me of our high school days when we would offend people with our elaborate rants on why we don’t look a certain book or a certain movie– and there were a lot of those. Both of us have very specific tastes. Most of the time we agree on things, and yes, we do disagree on some. I miss those days some times. I can’t believe high school is already so far away, first of all!
I think about this website all the time. Although we do use the space for personal projects and file uploading, we really wanted the blog to be the heart of it. Right now, I feel like it’s just the ‘front’ and not quite the main star yet. I guess we really haven’t worked hard enough to advertise this “blog”– though I prefer it be more of an old-school online newsletter, but with the hint of something more modern. I really need to flesh out this idea more.
I also need our other members to post here. Christ. Lazy jackasses.
For now– 2007 is coming to an end. Mjade is flying home from England and we will be celebrating the coming of 2008 in San Francisco. We’ll congratulate ourselves on this website and try to figure out how to pull an audience. We were never very good at pimping ourselves. Neither of us is willing to get naked online either, so I don’t know where this leaves two cute girl geeks.
Sigh.
Happy Holidays and Happy New Years, everyone!!!
