Hi! Notice anything different around here? We redecorated for 2011. You know what else? Haviland and her “backing band” created a song out of one of Riese’s old poems. You might want to find a way to get that on your ipod.
This week we also gave you the best/worst of everything in 2010 which includes pictures of everyone as cats, so. Also here are the top ten sweatpants you should be wearing (hint: university sweatpants are the best! I’m wearing some right now). In fact, I’d say 85% of my life is spent wearing sweatpants.
DeAnne Smith is back with fears of a lesbian invasion and also invites you to share your favourite “academic” word!
On Gaga’s New Album, Elton’s New Baby – Sunday Funday is a Brand New Gay:
The Sh*tt*ng Rainbows Award to eke, diver, boyar, allie:
On Buckle Up and Hold Onto Your Gay Marriage in 2011:
The I Might Be Slightly Biased Towards Canada Award to katiebug:
I’m all for bringing people up here but we might also want to think about pooling our funds and buying a private island and declaring it a sovereign state. Possibly we might want to buy an island in Canada so we still have easy access to the maple syrup and beer.
The Harry Potter Award to bani:
difficult times lie ahead harry, soon we must face the choice between what is right, and what is easy.
On The Belated Best/Worst Everything of 2010:
The We Are All Made of Kittens Award to Barbara:
the cat with the iPod looks like Laneia. Just saying.
On “Pretty Little Liars” Returns: Gay Emily is Coming Out, She Wants Her Parents to Know:
The Eyes Have It Award to e:
you guys aria’s eyes should be a separate character they’re so big and dreamy
On Gay Ex-Newsweek Writer Finds A Third Way to Make A Bad Point About Gay Actors:
The Bananagrams Award to JanisBing:
I spent thirty minutes trying to write something mean. All I found was this bad anagram.

That is literally the best thing I have ever seen. The government has taken away our right, shall we protest? Nope, lets sail to a fucking island and claim it. The best part is the National Anthem. Fuck I love gay people.
The national anthem is definitely the best part.
“Previous monarchs have been King Simon and his consort, Queen Keith.”
Holy fuck, life, you’ve excelled yourself again.
oh man. the Gayflower. YES.
Yesssssss. And I’m eligible for citizenship!
I am so fucking excited to be gay right now.
homg, considering i have been afk so much this week, definitely not expecting that. thanks AS!
tc, where you been girl?
smartypants has been missing you….

[email protected]
broski, darling, dearest smartyp.: Imma reply to you asap but I gotta have lunch first. freaking famished. expect an email by 2:30 EST because I’m prompt as fuck, obvs.
I think I’m having a panic attack
@e
easy girl, deep slow breaths–
and when I say head between your knees I mean your own! not hers!
I think im ok. There were too many people at this restraunt and I couldn’t breathe and my mom was yelling. I ran out.
Smartypants, I emailed you yesterday. Please respond :)
at the award ceremony we also hand out free brown bags for hyperventilating, also to hide your alcohol in.
YOU GUYS THINK OF EVERYTHING
Congratulations Emily !
You have won the “Form vs. Function?–WTF, Let’s Just Get Our Drunk On” Award.
And of course, it’s suitable for framing.
puts 1 more notch in the proverbial autostraddle bedpost.
unrelated sidenote:
moar hangouts?
autostraddle team: i haven’t said so yet because i thought there would be a post about it, but I LOVE THE REDESIGN. i normally hate change but this was sweet
Whenever I look through the comments it feels like almost everyone is in a secret club that I’m not part of because I’m not witty enough.
I think we all feel that way.
You are pretty awesome, through, because you’re here, most probably queer and let’s just have a party. I love you.
though*. Sorry, I already had party
I felt the same way initially.
Jump in baby, the water’s fine !
I like to think I make up for my lack of wittiness with love and kisses. You can too! it will be a party. we can make a fort! it will be a super special cuddly homogayrainbowfort filled made of flannel and giggles and soft things and bad puns.
perhaps this is what autostraddle is truly about.
if there’s a fort, i will be there. i’ll bring cookies.
FORT! I haven’t had a fort in way too long. Except when I was part of one made out of people last month. Anyway, I’ll be in the fort. With Dani’s cookies.
Dani’s cookies have sparkle.
They’re good for the homosoul.
Trust in the cookie.
all you have to do is say something about harry potter and you’re like 99% guaranteed to get an award.
It’s true. Also, Canada. If you can put them together Emily’s heart will explode with happiness.
Speaking of the redesign… it is pretty and all, but is anyone else having trouble with finding things in searches?
YOU CAN STILL HAVE SEX WEARING TANK TOPS. I’M JUST SAYING.
A valid point.
I need to have unrestricted access to boobies tho.
That’s an absolute must.
Word.
though when yall are all sweaty and its sticking to her in all the right deliciousness, that can be so yum.
……Word.
I cede the point, and therefore rescind my comment…
but I’m keeping the comment award :D
Four more and you get a free toaster.
this just became a goal of mine.
I see it now. Comment awards will become like one of those school fundraisers, where if you sell so many smelly candles, you get the FREE TOASTERRRRrrr but if you sell a TON of those smelly candles (to all those people who really didn’t want them, but felt bad because you were a small child asking for money that was going to a good cause), you get the FREE BLENDERRRRrrr/REFRIGERATORRrrr.
Kitchen appliances for the mothereffin’ win, bro.
Obvs I’m a feminist.
she’s right, I WIN. WEASLEY IS OUR KING. meaning me.
Redesign is the bomb. Also I WON SOMETHING YAY! <3
