lol a while a go i googled to find out if she really was as hot as she appeared in her twitter pic

http://www.outofaces.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/Isla-Fisher-7.jpg

She's in the new Gatsby movie, apparently, which is only a shame becuz yeah the funniez but I guess that Shopping movie kinda killed her funny girl status.

Also that pushup bra ad is awesome trolling

Who she?

isla fisher, who might as well be a piece of sexy 'disney's tangled' fanart in that cool retro-styled pinup girl pic

The "cool retro-styled pinup girl" look works tbh

she was in the last couple episodes of bored to death s3 btw. which, I dunno, I thought it was funny

she's a babia majora and all but an angora sweater and andy's mom's skin looks good on everyone

mega push-up beha

she is amazing in this movie btw. Worth watching just for her performance.

this is good to know

hey guys i just skipped all of this thread to see wussherface from home&away and to set my bookmark. did i miss anything or was it just that twice a year ws thread chatter that is life-draining and never really gets anywhere about nothing really?

people could probably learn a few things from that chatter tbh

there's no commonly used male equivalent to "lady doctor" or "female musician".

I don't know about that, you have male nurse, or male childminder for example. Like the female equivalent they're necessarily meant in a demeaning way, but culture often gets in the way of them being neutral terms.

Anyway, shouldn't really be in a WS thread, my lady spouse (do you see?) will not be pleased, but whoever Ari Graynor is, I would most certainly consider WS with anyone elses, and blonde hair isn't usually my thing.

I've seen a couple of her movies and at the time didn't rate her above "general hot person", but on closer inspection she's got this Monica Vitti thing with her eyes that's just WOW.

No, what I meant is that there is no commonly used prefix for a male doctor or male musician, because those professions are thought to be male by default, hence you can just say "doctor" or "musician". "Male nurse" is an example of the same thing, when a profession is considered female by default.

The use of "lady doctor" has faded considerably, now that women are not only going to med school in greater numbers, but are often choosing to serve in the less glamorous roles of family medicine and pediatrics, so they are often one's main doctor. As for "female musician", I have never encountered it. Not once. And I don't seem to be a carrier for the idea that musicians are male by default. Composers and conductors, otoh...

"Male nurse" is still going strong, although they are less of a rarity now.

i have yet to encounter "lady doctor" within the field of medicine

Anyone run into "lady strawman" yet?

i think i heard 'lady doctor' once iirc

Yeah, I've never ever heard Lady Doctor. Wtf.

I like to imagine that he is saying "I'm in yr forum... MANSPLAININ" with that particular handwaving.

No comment.

Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg

Ever watched her try to keep Zuckerberg on-message? This is kind of fascinating - http://venturebeat.com/2011/11/07/zuckerberg-and-sandberg-on-charlie-rose/

Amy Adams is charming, but I could do without the pinup thing. Same with the nailbiting. "Ugh," I believe the kids say.

Joan C is definitely cute.

lol at that yorke pic

I gotta admit, approaching the 2012 I was thinking that I'd find the ws threads more creepy, and the "hold on I'm spoogin here!"-style comments kind of give that feel, but overall the beauty of the pictures on this thread break that barrier for me.

I still think the level of creepiness is like this though:
Posting picture of smashable person you're attracted to - mildy creepy
Making color commentary -- a bit creepy there, depends on wording
Using a reference to your crush as the professional name you sell work under -- CREPEY

just for reference, where is "getting a glass of water...at night!!" on that scale?

ice COLD water!

ooooh, I dunno, that is a crisp question

Tellin' random strangers on th'interwebs where, exactly on your ~own personal creepiness scale~ you think aspects of their lives belong = DING DING DING BIGGEST CREPE OF ALL

Hold on, I'm spoogin here!
