Textual Healing: The Unknown Number Game Posted: 14 Dec 2010 10:28 AM PST Text messaging is often the fastest way to communicate with friends and acquaintances, but it's not always the best one. Especially when it comes to texting with guys. Here at Crushable we aim to help you sift through all the subtext and emerge relatively unscathed – with a little help from our friend Amanda Ernst. A few weeks ago, I left my purse behind at a restaurant, and as I ran (at full speed) back to retrieve it before a stranger picked it up, I calmed myself down with the reminder that my cell phone was still in my coat pocket. Sure, I would have to cancel all my credit cards and find a new route home, but at least I hadn’t lost all my beloved text messages and — the most precious commodity of all — my all inclusive contact list. Sadly, a few days after my missing purse incident (I recovered it with nothing missing, by the way), my Blackberry went ahead and deleted all my contacts and old text messages during a normal update. I know what you’re going to say — this was clearly my fault for not backing up my phone since May. In the end, I managed to recover most of my contacts from recent texts and call logging (which strangely hadn’t been deleted) as well as my email contacts. My sense of panic eased fairly quickly, but there were still a few awkward lost contacts. Like the name attached to the phone number of a guy I had been seeing for a few months earlier this year. I hadn’t talked to him via text since October, when our conversation ended with him calling me disappointing. To recover my lost contacts like that one, I had choices. It seems like every day I see a new Facebook invite to an “event” called something like “I Dropped My Phone Down The Sewer And Need Your Numbers!!!!” or “i lost my phone again, you know what that means.” No way was I going that route. But after reaching out to get the digits of friends, family, and most of my friends of friends, I was still pretty certain I would be getting texts from unrecognizable numbers for months to come. Unprepared to offer up the generic, “Sorry — I lost my contacts recently and so I don’t have your number stored. Who is this?” excuse again, I decided to just wait and see who eventually texted me. Feel free to follow my example if you can’t be bothered to admit you lost your phone, but want to force errant texters to identify themselves. A response to the “what’s up?” text a week to a month later:
A response to a late night text, sext or something overtly romantic over a month later:
A response to a random text three months to a year later:
A few times the back and forth got to me. It’s embarrassing to ask who is texting you after an exchange of a few messages. But after ten messages, if they still haven’t given up their identity, I think it’s more than appropriate to send a “Wait. Who IS this?” That accusatory note will either guilt them into confessing, or force them out of your text life. And if you can’t identify someone after 10 messages, maybe that’s for the best anyway. Have you ever lost your phone or your contact list? How did you deal with random texts from unknown numbers? What advice would you give someone in the same situation? Leave your thoughts in the comments below and you might see them featured in an upcoming installment of Textual Healing. Post from: Crushable |
Video: The 'Who Knew 2010 Had So Awesome Films?' Mashup Posted: 14 Dec 2010 09:40 AM PST 2010 had some pretty great films: Inception, The Social Network, Black Swan, one of those Harry Potter things, probably a Twilight movie in there. But there were also a ton of clunkers (anything with The Rock, Angelina Jolie, or Johnny Depp pretty much sucked this year). What’s amazing is that someone managed to take all the movies, good and bad, and turn it into this amazing 6 minute montage of awesomeness. If this was a very long trailer for just one film, I would give it the Oscar for everything. (via) Post from: Crushable |
5 Crazy Things We Just Learned About Thora Birch Posted: 14 Dec 2010 09:25 AM PST One New York Times article, five weird and surprising facts about Thora Birch: 1. Thora was fired from an Off-Broadway production of Dracula just four days before the show’s first scheduled performance. Allegedly, she was let go because her father, who’s also her manager, threatened another actor after he gave Thora a back rub. 2. Her father, Jack Birch, used to be a porn star. 3. Her mother also used to be in porn. Carol Connors has appeared in over 20 pornographic films and even played the nurse in Deep Throat. The Deep Throat set is actually where she met Jack, who appeared in the film as well. 4. Thora used to have a stalker. Her Dracula contract called for her to have a bodyguard, a role her father fulfilled, because, according to Jack, “Thora had had some stalking issues in the past.” 5. Thora Birch was going to be in an Off-Broadway production of Dracula. Post from: Crushable |
Questionable Choices: Paz De La Huerta's Pout Posted: 14 Dec 2010 09:20 AM PST We’re not huge fans of Paz De La Huerta around here. Obviously she’s beautiful. But even before we found out she flings boogers across restaurants, we’ve had trouble getting past the annoying interviews she loves to give. We get she’s supposed to be a super sexy dirrty girl, and maybe she gets misquoted. But even in her role about as a prostitute on HBO’s Boardwalk Empire, there’s something that just seems a bit odd about her. Frankly, sometimes we wonder if she thinks her character is mentally slow. And today, we finally realized what it is: that damn pout. When Paz plays Lucy on Boardwalk Empire, the pout is almost distracting. We get that she’s supposed to be a seductive flappertute (that’s the proper descriptor for a flapper who’s also a prostitute. Obvs), but does she also think she’s a five year old? Granted, Paz gets naked so often in Boardwalk that it’s hard to pay attention to her acting. But when we saw her pout in these Paper magazine pics, we had to wonder: Is Paz addicted to pouting? She loves pouting so much. Check out the picture at right of Paz pouting on the red carpet (with some intense eyebrows). We get that celebrities often have a go to look that they like to pull out for the paparazzi. But considering that this one makes it look like she’s throwing a sexy tantrum, we’re rather confused. Also, is this sexy? We know more than a few men who would say yes. But to us, acting like a toddler isn’t hot. And when you combine this and the booger flinging, that seems to be exactly what she’s doing. Post from: Crushable |
Poll: Who'd Make a Better Evil Queen In 'Snow White'? Posted: 14 Dec 2010 09:17 AM PST You know how 1998 was the year of the disaster meteor movies? And then there were those two Truman Capote films? Well 2011 looks like it’s going to be the year of dark Snow White tales: one possibly by Tarmzen (The Fall, The Cell) entitled The Brothers Grimm: Snow White, and Universal’s Snow White and the Huntsman (where the Huntsman may be played by Inglorious Basterds‘ Michael Fassbender ). What, no Tim Burton? But of course, the real question isn’t “Who is going to play the virginal Snow White, but who is going to play her evil step-mother?” So far Universal is looking at Charlize Theron for the role, which, if it keeps to true to the original story, will include a scene where she eats the heart of an animal she believes to be Snow White. Yum! Relativity Media is looking for the truly fairest of them all with their pick of Julia Roberts. Who do you think would make a more cackling villain? Post from: Crushable |
