Morning Meme: Jane Lynch Is No MILF, "Funny Girl," Returns, and Denis O'Hare Is Team Jacob

Plus will Fright Night be the best looking movie ever, Cyndi Lauper explains leather pants, and Kevin Alejandro tames Lafayette.

I’m not trying to be mean here, but the thought of Jennifer Love Hewitt being cast as Wonder Woman is ridiculous, and I hope she gets help for these delusions.

A 4^th generation family butcher shop in Spain has installed a vending machine for meat and prepared meals. I’m sure it’s fine, but I can’t see walking up to a machine at 2am and buying a fillet mignon.

This list of tropes about gay representation and stories in comics is fairly universal to comics, movies, and television programs. It should be required reading before you’re allowed to write for mass media. There’s a warning for mature content, but moderately graphic language is all I saw.

Steve Zahn is taking a role in Knight of Badassdom opposite Peter Dinklage. It’s been described as a “cross-breed of Evil Dead Sam Raimi with a sword-happy finale for Role Models.” Color my interest piqued.

Don’t get me wrong, this is the most ridiculous thing I’ve read in a long time, but I do appreciate the consistency of the application of the law. Police in upstate New York arrested a woman for public lewdness for having sex in a public park. Upon booking, they discovered she was married to another man, so they charged her with adultery under a seldom used 1907 law. The law’s the law, after all.

In sad news, Hair will close on June 27^th due to lackluster sales.

But Funny Girl is heading to a revival for spring 2012.

A casting notice has gone out for Party Down South, a redneck version of Jersey Shore. An RV casting tour has begun in Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, Tennessee, Kentucky and West Virginia. Should I try out?

May the deity-of-his-choice bless Chris Geidner for explaining why same-sex partners of federal employees stationed on Johnston Island will get a pay supplement. This became a question once the president announced it because there are no federal employees on Johnston Island. In fact there are no people on the island at all. I never could have unraveled this, nor made it so accessible.

Allow Cyndi Lauper to explain to you the cases where it might not work to wear black leather. It turns out there aren’t many.

The Real World DC’s Mike Manning seems like a nice guy, and he made an excellent representation for GLBT people on a reality show. But it sounds like he’s having trouble dealing with his 15 minutes running out.

I’ve been thinking lately about finding a MMO game to occupy my free time. So the announcement that MTV was launching a Spongebob Squarepants MMO pretty much made my day.

You can help Nick Adams build a well for his 27^th birthday. Is there any part of this guy that’s not always good?

It seems that Denis O’Hare, who plays the Vampire King of Mississippi on this season’s True Blood, is on Team Jacob, but I really think it’s more about abs vs. sparkle.

David Tennant and Christopher Mintz-Plasse are joining Anton Yelchin and Colin Farrell in the remake of Fright Night. This remake just got good looking enough to interest me.

Disney is said to be closing all ESPN Zone restaurants not on the Disney properties in California and Florida.

Dr. Demento made his final broadcast over the radio this weekend. From now on, the show is internet only. The end of a twisted era.

Indiana Jones and his Rascal scooter are going to the Bermuda Triangle for the next movie.

This is either the bravest man alive, or the most metrosexual lion on the planet. What color polish do you think he got?

I talk big behind the desk. In the savanna I'd climb a tree.

In America, our pets are just as obese as we are. And cats are jerks. 

I posted this on Facebook last week, but I never got around to it here.

I miss Rue.

This True Blood teaser features Nelsan Ellis (Lafayette) and Kevin Alejandro (Jesus) introducing their storyline for the season. The discussion of who's the dominant personality in the relationship has me intrigued, because I get the feeling they're deliberately going to address the fact that gay men have to work that out in every relationship.

The Onion News Network is now in the business of bringing you the news before it happens. It's all very technical, so I'll let them explain their proprietary wormhole technology. I wonder if Fox News can compete with this?

The Hollywood Reporter asked Jane Lynch what her fan encounters are like, including those with teenage boys. Nothing good ever comes from encounters with teenage boys.
