Spotted this license plate traveling on the 405 today:

What a genius website to collect church donations with.

10 Great GIFs From 2010

Posted: 30 Dec 2010 01:32 PM PST

GIFs are perfect. They are like little movie jokes, taking brief moments in time and memorialize them in a silent film aesthetic. 2010 has seen no shortage of fantastic GIFs. Let’s take a moment to look back on them.

1. From the Amazing Race:

2.) From Top Chef: You know Nany Pelosi loves that salad.

3.) Precious’s mom, on the other hand, has no interest in that salad:



4.) From Dancing With The Stars: Bristol Palin does this thing:

5.) The Raptors’ mascot ruins his face:

6.) A more satisfying and logical ending to Lost:

7.) This guy’s all “Whoops, Obama’s talking.”

8.) From our own Michelle Collins, the Awreatha Franklin Holiday GIF:


9.) The Kanye Shrug:


10.) And another Michelle Collins GIF: Mad Men’s Mrs. Blankenship looks BALLER.

Our 10 Favorite Shirtless Moments Of 2010

Posted: 30 Dec 2010 11:29 AM PST

1. True Blood Rolling Stone Cover. The blood. The touching. The lack of shirts. Skarsgard, why so modest? Paquin’s thigh can support itself. Paquin, cover up. Show some decorum. Moyer, you’re good.

2. Mark Paul Gosselaar’s Sex Scene on Weeds. This is a personal favorite. A water shed moment in television history. Wherein Mark Paul Gosselaar, everyone’s favorite Preppy, takes Mary-Louise Parker and does her in/on a bar. I recommend watching it again. This still hardly does it justice. NSFW.

3. Any photo of Benjamin Millepied shirtless. A star is born. A shirtless star. Sure, he’s been famous in his own right as a principal dancer at The New York City Ballet for quite some time, but when Natalie Portman deems you worthy to procreate and marry, it’s a whole new ball game. It’s like Millepied’s life went from the straight to DVD release of Center Stage: Turn It Up to the big screen release of Center Stage. PS nice ab tattoo.

4. Patrick Schwarzenegger Is All Growns Up. Michelle put it best in her post about Patrick Schwarzenegger saying it would be awful to oogle an almost 18 year old in such a manner, but OMG WOULD YOU LOOK AT HIM. PS Taylor Lautner has no problem being shirtless and I think he’s younger. Or similarly under age. I’ll get the Best Week Ever fact checkers on that one. Photo courtesy of Michelle.

5. Matthew Morrison in Vogue. I’m no Glee enthusiast. But I am an abs enthusiast. And Matthew Morrison has them. So, by the transitive property, I suppose now I am a Glee enthusiast. In addition to tanned abs, Morrison also excels in smoldering looks directed at super models. I’m sure this was the worst shoot of his life.

6. Stephen Dorff On The Cover Of VMan Magazine. Dan Hopper found this gem. Stephen Dorff, his career resurrected by Sofia Coppola, shows his happiness by denying himself a shirt. So happy. So shirtless.

7. Tom Cruise doing shirtless stunts for Mission Impossible 4. Personally, this shirtless Tom Cruise isn’t so much as attractive as fascinating. As my friend Keith observed, “He looks like a tube sock filled with oddly-shaped blocks of wood.” He then added, “Dude looks like a pug with abs.” Though this may be true, I appreciate his dedication to fitness and doing his own stunts.

8. Zac Efron Shirtless On The Beach. Kid gets a haircut, frequents strip clubs, takes off his shirt, and he graduates to Person It’s OK To Lust After Now.

BONUS EFRON!

9. Yoann Gourcuff, French Soccer Player. During the World Cup, Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo got a lot of attention, hotness and talent wise. However, my attention was trained on France’s Yoann Gourcuff. And, although France quit the World Cup, because they’re annoying, Yoann Gourcuff and his lack of shirt is not.

10. Shirtless Jared Leto Looking At A Photo Of Himself Shirtless. This literally came to my attention today. A friend directed me to 30 Second To Mars’ epic 13 minute video, “Hurricane,” wherein, (spoiler) dynamic front man Jared Leto is shirtless. And is presented with photos of himself sleeping (shirtless).


HONORABLE MENTION: Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway on the cover of Entertainment Weekly for Love and Other Drugs. I find that Entertainment Weekly has a penchant for awful covers. But this is a good one. This isn’t so much an abs as an arms situation.
