Holy shit, I just realized why Sarah Palin was nagging at me so badly.

No, it's not just because of the 51 facts and counting that should cause anyone to question whether she's fit to lead anything, never mind run for the office of VPOTUS.

It's because she reminds me of my old high school principal.

That is, Dolores Umbridge.*

Angry Asian Man: Sheena on America's Next Top Model Cycle

The 11th season of America's Next Top Model premieres tonight on the CW. While there are very few redeeming qualities about this program, I mention it here because one of this season's contestants is Asian American (we seem to get one every three seasons or so).

According to the Top Model website, Sheena, 21, is a "Hostess/Go-Go Dancer" from Honolulu, Hawaii currently residing in Harlem, New York. Here's her model interview, where she reveals a little bit about her personality, her attitude, and where's she coming from.

There's a Tales of Symphonia joke in here somewhere, I'm just not sure where to find it...

I broke one of the arms of my glasses last night. It is currently being held together with superglue that held the broken pieces together long enough for me to wind masking tape around them. Will definitely be needing new frames. I'm seriously thinking of getting contacts again, if Mommykins approves (she is - rightfully - skeptical, since the last time I had contacts, I only wore them for a year before I got lazy and just went for my glasses all the time). I'd love to get colored contacts, but having astigmatism pretty much limits me to green, blue, gray, or honey brown. Come on, people! Astigmatics want purple eyes, too! Or turquoise! *sobs as her nonconformist cries go unheeded*

Shit, I almost forgot to put this in, but there's going to be a Gintama 10-minute original anime special about Shiroyasha and the Joui, being aired exclusively at JumpFesta.

FUCK.

YEAH.

*Or, as someone on [livejournal.com profile] dark_christian put it: "She's that obnoxious woman from the PTA that everyone hates, and when she walks up to the podium, people cringe and realize they're not going to be able to get up and have a donut for at least another half hour."**
**Although, to be entirely fair, while I probably couldn't even bear sitting down and having a coffee with Ms. Nolan, I could at least respect her and the work she did and the love she had for Queen of Peace. I cannot say the same for Gov. Palin.
