oh she was GOOD, you know what I mean?



As Gossip Girl breaks so must we. Time to rejuvenate, juice up on bitchiness, and take time off well deserved after keeping you entertained. We're both vacationing and I promised le boyfriend that he would have my undivided attention. ;)

We will see you all as Season 3 comes closer to beginning and we promise loads of Chair-loving, LD bashing, Queen praising and McEddie drooling. Until next time.

The Best & Worst of Season 2... for me - 35 QUESTIONS!

  1. Favorite Blair Outfit: It's a toss up between Blair's Snowflake Ball gown and the Ruby Red dress she wore when babysitting that chick in that one episode. Of course, both dresses that Chuck has gotten for her are close contenders; both the ruby one and the Prom gown were stunning. (and and and the dress she wears when she hugs Chuck and the peach one in 'You've Got Yale'... damn, so many! I just want her wardrobe.)
  2. Least Favorite Blair Outfit: It's hard to find a least favorite look for Blair because she always looks so amazing. But I really didn't like that blue thing she wore at Yale:
  3. Favorite Other-female outfit: I loved Serena's Grecian gown in 2.01, it was stunning & Jenny did look adorable in her 2.01 'Ivory' dress also. I also really like how Eleanor dresses, my favorite aunt dresses like her and she always has this classy air about her.
  4. Least Favorite female outfit: Not a fan of about 90% of things Vanessa wears, so that's that. I also never got the insistence of making Blake's tits part of the all-star cast. Half her outfits featured her boobs more than her.
  5. Favorite Male Outfit: Chuck's wardrobe is a character in itself, isn't? But my favorite is a toss between his Yale outfit that made him look like he stepped off a period film (in the most delicious way), the White suit at the white party and the Sparkly-jacket for the Snow Flake ball. That will never get old. I dont really know what else the boys wore; their outfits never stand out.
  6. Least Favorite Male Outfit: Anything Dan/Rufus/Nate wears I can usually skip right over. So I have to stick with Chuck who actually takes thought into dressing himself and sometimes makes you go like 'WTF?'. My least favorite Chuck outfit is the smoke-jacket. A sure sign that he's brooding about Blair and not thinking about his outfit.
  7. Favorite Fight: I have a few faves. Of course the Serena/Blair cat fight takes the cake (MY HEADBAND, MY HEADBAND!) but we must also mention Chuck FINALLY punching someone; and it had to be the JACKass. It was hot. I'm not going to lie.
  8. Least Favorite Fight: Lord Tiny Penis punching my Chuck. And Chuck taking it. Ugh. I was so mad I had to walk away.
  9. Favorite Blair Headband!: I have a few so I'll narrow it to 2. Damn. My very favorite one is the one in 2.03 when the Ear!Sex happens. That one was stunning but I really really loved the White-Party one AND the one Chuck got her to match her dress in 2.07. There's so many of them *cries*
  10. Least Favorite Blair Headband: None. Blair is perfect.
  11. Favorite Parent Moment: Bart/Chuck 'I want to know my son' and then the bastard dies. Sadness. Blair/Cyrus 'not enough!' in 2.13 and Blair/Eleanor in the finale 'dont let him get away' *sigh*
  12. Least Favorite Parent Moment: Lily slapping Chuck. Literally someone had to hold me back because I was pretty sure that ad mists my sobbing I was going to slap her right back. Lily attempting to run off with Rufus while her family is falling apart. I mean... where was Eric going to spend Christmas never mind her step-son who was mourning. Harold telling Blair he was disappointed in her. I wanted to .... ugh!
  13. Best Friend Moment: Blair and Nate carrying Chuck to the funeral. Serena and Blair during 2.07, their friendship was adorable and funny. Dan/Chuck in jail, that sequence was amazing. An honorable mention to Jenny/Eric who are my current favorite BFFs.
  14. Worst Friend Moment: Serena telling Chuck he hasn't been there for THEM during HIS father's funeral. Bitch, WTF?? Did he not bail your ass out 100 times over and over, you stupid plastic bendable Barbie??? Jenny/Vanessa after the Nate-pong mess. I still don't know how they went back to being bffs and TBH I dont give a damn.
  15. Worst Fake-Boyfriend/Girlfriend: It's a toss-up between Lord-Tiny-Penis and Monotone-Aaron. Yup.
  16. Best Fake Boyfriend/Girlfriend: There are none. This is why they're fake.
  17. Favorite Plot-Line of the Season: Aside from the whole will-they-wont-they Chair sequence I loved Jack Bass. Just loved him. I wish they'd bring him back so Chuck can properly beat him up and Vanessa can come on to him because he's after all a Bass and a male. (apparent requirements for getting back at Nate when he leaves her for the 7th time)
  18. Least Favorite Plot-Line: Aside from the obvious Quadrangle from hell that reared it's badly-written head in the later half of the season; I couldn't bring myself to give a fuck about the whole Rufly kid. Really. I dont care. At all. Oh and the Yale mess. And the Eyes-Wide-Shut party shit (was her name Elle or Hell? Either way we were watching it) and the Nate being angry at Chuck for no reason... I can go on. I must stop before I start a full-on-rant
  19. Favorite Episode: Fuck, damn. I can't choose. 2.01, 2.04, 2.08, 2.13, 2.14, 2.15... then we skip to 2.23 and 2.25
  20. Worst Episode: 2.20 will go down as the worst one. Ever. Ever. But there are a few others that are close behind.
  21. Scene that made you sob and rock in a corner: 2.13, Chuck showing up in Blair's room. That scene... oh that scene...
  22. Scene that made you laugh until your stomach hurt: Georgina showing up in Serena's room and the mess that went with that but the cake was Nate "shhh"ing everyone.
  23. Promo that made you want to die for the next episode: The 2.12 promo. Chuck and Blair dancing. I was a mess. Oh and the promo for 2.03 - Chair kissing in the dark.
  24. Promo that made you sick: 2.20. Really, this is like the all-purpose fuck-up.
  25. Favorite Quote: It's between "Tell Jesus the bitch is back", "I'm bored, you ruined my pants" and "Three Words, Eight Letters". Just selective good writing.
  26. Least favorite Quote: Anything Nate told Chuck in anger, most especially when Chuck was trying to help him with his money problems. And usually when Vanessa talks I dont... you know, listen.
  27. Best Random Moment: Blair running behind Chuck as he sips Champagne in 'You've got Yale'
  28. Worst Random Moment: Serena grabbing Nate and kissing him. Because that's all that happened and we wanted more, dammit!
  29. Best Gay Moment: "Are you gay?" from Chuck to Dan because I was expecting him to reply "yes" and that would've been golden. Most especially Chuck's unsurprised face at the confirmation.
  30. Worst Gay Moment: WHERE THE HELL ARE MY GAY KISSES?? NO ERIC/JONATHAN EVER?!! FAIL! Last season I got 2! TWO (ok, we only got the impression of one of them but technically there were two).
  31. Best Party: The Dark Night, shit seriously went down there and the post-graduation one was also awesome
  32. Worst Party: Prom. Because we blinked and missed it.
  33. Best Kiss: Humm.... finale kiss is my favorite, it was amazing but even me who doesn't like Nate/Jenny thought their kiss at the end of 2.08 was pretty amazing too
  34. Worst Kiss: heh... need you ask?
  35. Overall FAVORITE moment: This is hard. Very hard. We saw some AMAZING moments this season and some total FAIL ones. But I have to say my very favorite moment in S2 was The Roof Scene in 2.14. "No one cares" - "I do!" but then again I have so many I can't fucking pick!
Feel free to answer the questions yourself :)

how about you SATISFY us?

;)




oh the pains of being SANE



As you can see, we have to take them as they come. It's been extremely slow in the wanking business these days. Either they're all hidding or it really was 3 people posting over and over. I'm fond of the second theory, it makes sense in this senseless world.

Since you're all busy voting for all of your fanfiction and all I will go ahead and grace you with a couple of wanks. Every once in a while you all send them in. And we appreciate them WHOLEHEARTEDLY.

"I actually think josh S hates Chuck and SS loves him. I also think he's back and is purposely dismantling CB and propping up NB."

ME: This person... has never read an interview, has never watched an episode, has never read an article, a review, has never done anything outside her little bubble. It's the only explanation because... because it's the only explanation. Either that or the Kool-Aid. Yup, it must be the Kool-Aid.

----

LOVE the pictures and that season 3 poster is classic.
LOVE it and it's very telling who is still the male lead of this show, the credits say it all. Not to mention the positions in that poster. this shows leads are Blake/Serena, Leighton/Blair, Penn/Dan and Chace/Nate.. I've always known this but it's nice to see it confirmed.

ME: I just LOVE how this person's line of vision works. She should have it medically checked, seriously. Because she's staring at the picture:



And let me clarify that I totally dont blame her for skipping over LD because I did too, so she sees Chace, smiles, sees Leighton (all hail the Queen!), smiles, has momentary malfunction because she can't handle Ed-in-the-middle (while most women would LOVE that), wakes up from her malfunction and sees Blake and continues from there. Human malfunction induced by the Kool-Aid. It's fantastic when we see how they think, isn't it? It's kinda scary. In the 28-days kind of scary. DONT LET THE KOOL-AID GET IN YOUR EYES, KIDS!!!

----

"She'll say that about whomever she's romantically paired with at that time. I do think she LOVES kissing Chace way more than Ed and her wiping her mouth after kissing Ed is proof."

ME: Once more, bitches. Let us start by WANKING you for stating anything wrong against the Queen. YOU DO NOT MOCK THE QUEEN, what the fuck is wrong with all of you!?? Ugh. Second, I cannot take the second part of your statement seriously as it's obvious from the footage when EL were kissing in 2.25 outside the Plaza Hotel that they were joking around. It's called having fun with your co-worker and keeping things light when he's practically got his tongue down your throat. Because otherwise you'll enjoy it a little bit too much. Dont worry, when a guy finally kisses you, you will understand and on a side note. Find me an article where The Queen has praised Nair the way she does Chair and I will personally apologize to you. Go on. Find me an article where she says Nate is the guy for Blair (the ONLY guy for Blair), I dare you.

ed totally LOBBIED





Ed being overall sexy and adorable as he talks about the coming Wuthering Heights and even Chace & his sense of humor are present. Now, I warn you to stop watching 3/4 into the vid because you know who is in it too. Fair warning for those of you who say I dont warn you about these things ;)

It's a quiet weekend, isn't it? Damn. Must read more fiction as I shop in Dean & Deluca online. It's a debility, so sue me. I'm helping the economy, dammit!

VOTE, MOTHERFUCKERS, VOTE!!!





Yes, our kids are getting a motherfucking EMMY, you hear? So stop what you're doing, let go of that fanfiction you've been reading, stop bitching about Nate in that forum, stop starring dreamily at the new Ed photos and GO VOTE!

Thank you for your cooperation :)

I can't beWEAVE it!

I want take a moment to state that I didn't write ANYTHING. I'm just copy/pasting the love that is Gawker. :D

Really. She's making it too easy on ALL of us; we dont even have to try. We're soon going to be out of a job. For reals!



For you stupid fools that think we're the only ones that make fun of her; here's a dose of that shit called reality:

I mean, we're all taking it pretty seriously. But, c'mon. That's Vanessa from "Gossiping Girlies" at a party somewhere stupid in New York last night

I love that everyone in the background is looking away hoping to find someone more famous or less orange.

Wow, that picture has the whole food chain of the celebu-industrial-complex.
-Self important, striving narcissistic half-talent center piece cash machine
-Snooty, self-important, high strung, longing for a decent lay "publicist"
-Fanboys and girls all more interested in the arrival of the dwarf who played a Ferengi in the original Star Trek than the piece of ass right in front of them (hahaha!! and you all think WE are mean!)

By the end the night I am sure she was surrounded by navel officers and non-commissioned semen.

i've been KICKED around since I was born



The RETURN of the wankings!!!!!! I know, it's been eons since we've properly wanked this motherfucking fandom! And now, since some of them are still on the Kool-Aid it's time for us to roll up our sleeves and wank the motherfuckers, eh? Who's with me?

Fuck, I've missed this!

"I know most of you will complain or be like NO WAY but i really want Vanessa and Chuck together. (let me first of all start by saying that it'll be a little more than MOST of us. Like a whole fucking lot.) I mean It was cute that at the end with chuck and blair, but to me they are so BORING! (...) God all it has been was them trying to make eachother say i love you. LIKE COME ON! And i dont know why you all hate vanessa, i mean in the beginning she annoyed the **** out of me, but when i see her and chuck scenes it makes me like her! (how? in what sense? where is the validity? where is your convincing argument? I get so disappointed when you all dont even try to convince me.) Im hoping a Chuck/Vanessa/Blaire triangle? With Vanessa and chuck ending up together of course (because that is as realistic as LD's weave)

Other couples on the show i want to happen is: Nate/Jenny Dan/...BLAIRE! I THINK IT WOULD BE AN AWSOME COUPLE, ahaha i really wanna see it happen, && THEY ARE GOING TO THE SAME SCHOOL TOGETHER... so maybe? eh eh ? (AAAAANNNDDDD the TRUTH comes out! I love it when they let themselves show who they really are! I just LOVE it. They can't help themselves, it just comes forth. A convinience shipper! LOVE THEM!)

I dont like serena i want her to be alone, i dont like her with anyone." (yeah, I can say the same for you)

ME: Bitches, I had to get my hands in this one, because it was too much to pass up. :D
------

LOVEEEEEEEEEE NATE AND SERENA, NATE AND SERENA 4EVER THEY ARE DESTINED TO BE TOGETHER!!!!!!!!!!
Nate and Serena

Chuck and Vanessa

Dan and Blair
<--- aha!! SPOTTED! ME: Convinience shipper #445,987 dont you just love them?

------

Uhh he somehow found her scrap book under bed and she had no idea that's effing creepy... not to mention he apparently hadn't been in her room till 1x03 "That's what your bed looks like.." so we are supposed to believe some where between 1x03 and 2x24 he went into her room and through her things.. probably during 1x11/1x12 when he went all psycho on her for not wanting him back.

ME: ... I... someone find this person a new show. Maybe in TV Land or Cartoon Network, please?

------

The only thing that didn't fail in the last eppie was Nate, he was no way in the wrong.. because low and behold it was Chuck chucking up Blair's prom like always so Nate was right. Chuck said he'd let her go, yet he couldn't help but interfere not to mention being such a creepy stalker.. going through Blair's crap is not romantic its borderline illegal. This episode only managed to solidify my utter distaste for the fail that is Chuck Bass I miss badass awesome Chuck, i'm sick of this Jesus wannabe trying to make Blair "happy", if he really wanted her to be happy her would have left her alone like he said he would.

ME: 'Chuck chucking up' - it's got a ring to it, doesn't it? I mean, I kinda like it, near borderline. Well, the moment he left her alone she left Nate so missions accomplished because staying in a relationship where people dont really love one another is just perfect, right? I just hope this person doesn't practice in real life what she preeches because she's in for some serious relationship problems.

-------

WHY don't they write vanessa an actual storyline that is unburdened by hot beverages? her tryst with chuck bass was so promising, but where did it leave her? in brooklyn, playing go fish with a fifteen(fifty) year old flame out named jenny humphrey on prom night! those dove commercials are not enough for jessica szohr!

ME: The answer is simple, my friend. Because we dont fucking care. That's why and the writers dont care about her story either or they wouldn't have yanked her around like a puppy in training during the last few episodes of this season. And TRUST me. The Dove commercials are more than enough. MORE than enough.

-------

The prom episode should have been epic, instead prom was not even the main storyline. I still don't understand why Nate & Blair broke up; that could have been done better. You suddenly don't want to be with him because you started dating in high school? Huh? And didn't Nate just buy them an apartment a couple weeks ago?

ME: She missed that whole episode where Blair is in love with Chuck and basically asked him to confess his feelings so she could leave Nate. I mean; this is the only explanation for this senile statement. She's just missed episodes. Like she's missed points in this storyline.

-------

Why did they have to ruin everything? NB were just perfect couple... I don't see Chuck and Blair together, they are better without each other or as "scheme"friends:D So what now, BC holding hands? ;/ I liked Chuck so much in season 1 as a womanizer, now I really dont;/ I miss season 1...and I regret that they made too many changes from the book, which is perfect and Blair Nate are actually main copule there!

ME: First of all, what does this ;/ mean? Because it looks like some strange new Kool-Aid inspired smiley-face that I'm not hip enough to know, you know? Yes, let us emulate the books where Nate is never sure who he wants and ends up leaving BOTH Blair and Serena. 'PERFECT'.

--------

(on the new Leighton interview)
You'll be able to see her with Dan when they have hot drunken study group sex. And I'm sorry but it actually kind of disappoints me that she's saying she's so supportive of a relationship that has been dysfunctional and unhealthy for the both of them. But then again, Leighton does have a tendency to spout the company line regarding who Blair is hooked up with at the time.

ME: WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?? ARE YOU MOCKING THE QUEEN? WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?? You think me and everyone else is going to sit there and take it just because she doesn't like your ship because she's got some fucking sense? Dan's first love is always going to be Serena and Leighton knows that. He'll always come back to her because it's the way he's been written now shove OFF and dont you dare mock the Queen again! FUCK! You can curse me all you like but you do not mock the Queen or my bebes, is this clear? Good, go sip on your angry!Kool-Aid!

--------

This entire conversation is GOLD. Just gold! I'm just bolding my favorite parts :D

"For serious though, I didnt have a problem with blair breaking up with him bc I knew that would eventually happen but I hated how she literally went from being sooo happy to being randomly sullen. That scene was so out of no where. And Nate needs to stop being mute, they never give him any dialouge anymore!"

"the whole thing was sooo contrived. She was over the moon and then in the next scene she's depressed. I knew the break-up was coming, but it should have been way more epic. We're talking like, five or six years of history between them here. The only other characters who have that kind of history are Serena and Blair, and they got a really great scene at the end of the episode. AND SERIOUSLY, WTF at Nate's muteness. You can't have a good break-up scene if only one person is doing the nonsensical talking"

"Come on Blair, you'll never find a guy as good as Nate! "

"or as hot as him! Chuck has a flat face and weird body hair!" (HAHAHAAAAAA)

"I don't know what she sees in Chuck - he's not attractive, nor is he a nice person! D:" (because Blair is a SWEETHEART)

ME: Aw, man! I'm so going to FUCKING MISS THEM!!! They're slowly dwindling away into nothing until one day you'll have the problem some of them have over at GG Insider. Where the last post in our favorite Nair thread is someone asking if there's any Nair fans left. She asked that yesterday EARLY morning and still no one has replied. Can one of you please go in there and at least PRETEND to like Nair like they PRETENDED to like Chuhobo? I mean, she can't possibly think they're all in vacation, can she? Can she???

Fuck. That is 2 weeks worth of wanks. I'm so depressed!!!
