9/29/12 - The Madonna Project Update
Another wonderful night at Bender’s with the always lovely Eileen. I managed to get two Madonna songs in before screeching out a halfway decent “Call Me Maybe.”
I have made the executive decision to rid myself of the Evita tracks, because I don’t really consider them Madonna songs. I have added “4 Minutes,” because I missed it earlier, but need to find a suitable Justin Timberlake.

People on tumblr are very serious about So You Think You Can Dance. I appreciate their fervor.
That said, I think the right people won.

And now for something funnier and less angry.
From IMDB:
After the 2000 Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode “New Moon Rising,” in which regular character Willow comes out as a lesbian and chooses to stay with her girlfriend Tara, aired, a group of internet board posters sent “Buffy” creator Joss Whedon an engraved toaster to thank him for the storyline. This was a reference to the “coming-out” episode of “Ellen” (1994), (a show on which longtime Buffy writer Jane Espenson had also worked) in which there had been a running joke about the GLBT movement awarding every newly out person a toaster for “joining.”
THIS PLEASES ME.

Brittney was sexually assaulted on a MUNI bus. After she reported the sexual assault to the police, they told her to “be careful”.
Hear that, ladies? If you’re going to engage in risky, promiscuous behavior like riding the bus in broad daylight, you’d better leave your vaginas at home!
Holy fucking shit. Please read and reblog, and BTW, I’m filing a complaint with the City today.
UPDATE: You can tweet this @SFPD to make it known that women in San Francisco will not be silenced when it comes to sexual assault.
You can thank my other half for the link. There’s hope for the patriarchy after all.
Dear Naked Guy on Tumblr,
While I’ll admit that your package is indeed impressive, I’m pretty sure this is a complete misuse of the tag “pointing.” I mean, you’re not even pointing it at anything other than the camera.
Thanks,

Hey! If you haven’t noticed, I finally figured out how to turn the reply thing on here. For as smart as I like to think I am, sometimes easy things confuse me.
The Madonna Project
A while back, I drunkenly decided I wanted to sing every Madonna song available for karaoke. While I have diligently been working towards this goal, I haven’t been as good about documenting it, leaving me drunkenly standing at Benders, looking at the list and trying to remember what I haven’t sung. I know I’ve probably forgotten some that I’ve already done, but I’ll just have to do them again, then!
SO! Based on Eileen’s list, here is a list of Madonna songs. Crossed off items mean I know I’ve sang it. Italics mean it’s past Ray of Light era and will probably have to actually learn the songs (man, things really went downhill after 2000, didn’t they?).

Question: Do the Evita songs really count? Because I could easily skip those. I guess I should rephrase, I’d really like to skip those.
* Actually, I will probably never sing Cherish, as it is the worst Madonna song ever.
“Never stop pointing at things!”
