I loved Room for Squares. That record was my jam for a long while. Everything after that, with the exception of a few songs on select albums, wasn’t that great, but I still liked John Mayer. He seemed like a funny guy (see his impromptu “Chocolate Rain” parody on Best Week Ever), and I tolerated him. But since he’s become fucking tabloid fodder, any and all respect for him is gone. I can’t even separate the artist from the person anymore. He’s such a fucking douchebag, and I don’t know …

Paul Rudd on…Why He Feels A Little Gay
“I always thought I’d be a really good gay guy. I love American Idol. I watch Antiques Roadshow like crazy. Guys like Oscar Wilde, Stephen Fry, Elton John — they’re all very bright, with a razor-sharp wit. David Sedaris — who’s funnier than David Sedaris? The Saturday Night Live that I hosted was such a gay-heavy show. But it didn’t even cross my mind until after. The family that kept kissing each other — I didn’t even think of that as being gay.

Link: Obama budget could bring $9.3 trillion in deficits
President Barack Obama’s budget would produce $9.3 trillion in deficits over the next decade, more than four times the deficits of Republican George W. Bush’s presidency, congressional auditors said Friday.
I voted for him like a majority of the United States, but I just want to know why the numbers weren’t plugged before.

You’ve got eyes I want to get lost in, hair I want to get tangled in, and lips I want to feel pressed against mine.
We have quite the chemistry, you and I, and we know it better than anyone.

When I was in New York, I had my Florida boys come up pretty often to visit. They loved the city, but they were like big babies who suddenly felt grown up and acted like they knew everything. I wouldn’t call them sheltered, but they certainly weren’t worldly characters.
They knew my drug of choice used to be cocaine, and they also knew I’d quit to start a family. I had no desire to touch it, and no desire to be around it. Yet, New York City was synonymous with cocaine …

I remember when I was 18 years old, I told my father I wanted to be a chef. He got mad and said, “There’s no money in that, Jacobo! Don’t waste my money.” I replied, “Maybe I can cook for Michael Jackson.”
