i am feminism's worst nightmare

catherine: warren
are you there
please
help
there is
the largest cockroach i have ever seen in my life in my bathroom
WHAT DO I DO
warren: get a glass and put it over it
then it can't escape
catherine: IT"S LITERALLY TOO BIG FOR A GLASS
warren: pot
catherine: IT WILL EAT MY FACE IF I TRY TO DO THAT
THEN WHAt???
ok i will try
omg ITS GONE
ITS GONE
IN TWO SECONDS
WHERE IS IT?!?!?!?
HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO PEE NOW
oh ok i found it
you know that plastic crate in my bathroom, it's hiding behind it
now what? if i move that crate it will jump on my face
warren: now trap it so it can't get out
catherine: augh...
okay
warren: they don't jump
catherine: ...augh
augh
augh
warren: they run fast
just get a big pot
and trap it
and then you don't have to worry any more
catherine: pot or glass do you think
warren: glass so you can see it
but they tun fast
run
so it might be harder to trap it in a glass
catherine: so i should have like 3 glasses ready
warren: 1 plastic cup.. and a big pot
also, try to block off where it could run to
with like a few books or something
catherine: i have good and bad news
good it went under the wall in the bathroom
BAD IT CAN COME BACK
how do i seal that shit up???
i lined it with aluminum foil
hopefully that will work
right?

bromantic comedies

amanda: Did you read that jason segal interview popcandy linked to?
catherine: no!
amanda: stoller's brother is basically set up like his partner, like the next judd apatow the way this thing reads
catherine: wow, nice. is it on pop candy today?
amanda: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/13/movies/13itzk.html?_r=1&ref=movies&oref=slogin#
catherine: sweet, thank you
catherine: it's funny, i feel like these sort of films are like chick lit movies, except, dude lit
like all they write about are relationships and women
which is funny when you think about it for traditional male roles in hollywood
amanda: YES
completely
and if you've been paying attention to this, the romantic comedies for women lately have truly sucked for the most part
catherine: yeah, no kidding
amanda: i'll be the first to admit that there are a lot of rom coms in my list of favorite movies, but the fare in the past few years has blown
maybe the tide is shifted into like... dude rom
catherine: man, men are co-opting the most annoying stereotypical part of being a female (bad chick lit and romantic comedies) and making it successful
amanda: BASTARDS
catherine: DAMN YOU JUDD APATOW
amanda: while women get all the crime fighting roles
it's a crazy mixed up world we live in
but, ya know
i'd rather see women kicking ass and men crying over a breakup
honestly
catherine: me too!

catherine: gridskipper recently invested lots more in DC and London
