The Truth Files

Stephen Colbert/Daily Show Love. House, Hugh Laurie, Black Adder, BritCom obsessiveness. Eddie Izzard quoting ad naseum. Self loathing. Other people loathing. Anything else I can loathe-fit that in there too. Tales of alcohol and dogs. The occassional night at the bar causing trouble. Mis-treating brain cells...Who needs them? No sex. No drugs-usually. Much rock'n'roll. Just trying to survive in 615. Y'know. The usual.

Stephen Colbert takes over the World-the World is Thrilled-Mission Accomplished

First things first-after re-watching my fake pundit soulmate I've decided he was subversive genius and my adoration is SO much more than just because he looks good in a tailored Italian suit. He ripped the shrub a much needed new one, and brought the press corp a nice new hairshirt at the same time and without the build-up (which was intense courtesy of the internet) but just as a speech, it was biting and wicked commentary.
I am not one of those topical bloggers. But, since I've been plugging The Report since day uno (here's to you immigrant workers, I mean that) I'm going to join the link fest:

Guess which fangirl is me

Oh and he "hosted" Saturday Night Live

In an ambiguous kind of way

Word to Stephen for being the Man. He's a cultural sensation. The kind of thing that only comes around once in awhile. Right now, Stephen is the last episode of Seinfeld. He's Ross and Rachel. He's Pearl Jam and Nirvana. He's the biggest thing going. And it is so awesome to think back on the Daily Show or Strangers With Candy (when I would explain that it is SO funny-see it's making fun of everything people hold dear, that's hiLARious!) and I wasn't a freak about the fandom but I knew what I liked. Well, turns out, he's more than good.

Damn, it's good to be a fangirl.
