Why isn't 'Batgirl' a valid career choice?

Back in late October, I did an article here that talked about Healthcare Reform in the US and how it affects both Buzznet users and the bands they are fans of.  In the article, I mentioned an online forum I participated in which featured several speakers, including Pete Wentz of Fall Out Boy.

Holy crap did these guys have an adventurous day!

First of all, Frank and Bob met a giant spider!

Frank reacted quickly by...hiding behind Bob.

Lucky for them, Buffy was nearby and saved them!

Then Gerard showed up and asked if he could try on Buffy's jacket and she said "Um, sure?"

Gerard thinks he looks damn good in Buffy's jacket.  Frank agrees.

Meanwhile, Mikey and Ray make coffee.

Someone pointed out to me today that album releases are on TUESDAYS.  Well, THAT DOESN'T MATTER!  If MCR doesn't want to see these apples sliced up and baked into a pie and EATEN, they will put out a new album by November 9th, 2009!

If you're like me, then the quickly approaching release date for New Moon leaves you with only one desire: to crawl into a hole and not come out until the abstinence fueled Twi-frenzy goes back into hibernation.

But alas, this is really not possible.  So we are damned in that everywhere we turn there will be SOMETHING relating to Twilight, be it an advertisement, a blog, an interview or, of course, merchandise.

And really, for me, the merchandise is some of the worst of it.  I know it's unescapable because we're talking about a franchise extremely popular with teens and young adults, both demographics who tend to have disposable income.  But really, sometimes these things go too far (WARNING: THAT LAST LINK IS VERY, VERY, VERY NOT SAFE FOR UNDERAGED READERS, WORK OR FOR ANYONE'S SANITY.  DO NOT CLICK IT IF YOU ARE ON A SHARED COMPUTER OR USING A…

I've let the apples have the run of my apartment while I'm at work because, hey, they're possibly going to be baked into a pie and eaten anyway.  So why not?

Strangely, all of them have begun to act like their namesakes.  It's kind of weird, actually.

Gerard got into my comic books.

Frank was upset that I didn't have a puppy for him to play with, but he ended up making friends with my lucky stuffed French Lab Rat, Marcel.

Ray and Mikey pretty much chilled out and played video games together.  Though they did end up complaining about my lack of selection.

And Bob is so damn pimp, he spent the day in a tropical paradise, hanging out with Wonder Woman and former WWE Diva Amy "Lita" Dumas.  

Now is not the time for idle threats, my friends.  Now is not the time for patience or excuses.

It is almost the end of 2009 and we still do not have a new My Chemical Romance CD.  We have put up with update after update from the band during their studio time, yet we still do not have a follow-up to The Black Parade.  I cannot deal with this anymore.  This is a matter of dire consequence.Read on...
