Day 52.
I do realize that I've spent the last few days just absolutely
shitting all over Julie Powell and her awful personality and in doing so, I've perhaps become a little bit disagreeable myself. Many of you have noticed that my posts have gradually gotten angrier and angrier over time and for good reason too--I'd like to see you watch
Julie & Julia every day for 52 days and not get angry (actually, I wouldn't because that would mean I'd have to watch you watching Julie & Julia every day--and frankly, I don't think this world is ready for a blog of that magnitude yet). So in other words, I wanted to acknowledge and make up for all of the hate that I dumped on Julie by heaping some love on Julia.
I've said it before and I'll say it again--Meryl Streep, you are a national treasure.
 |
| Meryl Streep, charming the pants of some French dude. |
 |
| Meryl Streep, effervescent in black & white. |
 |
| Meryl Streep, making hats like a mothafucka. |
 |
| Meryl Streep, going double duty on some stiff cocks. |
 |
| Meryl Streep, showing all those punkass onions what's up. |
 |
| Meryl Streep, proving that you don't need a penis to be a chef. |
 |
| Meryl Streep, smelling fish like it's her fucking job. |
 |
| Meryl Streep, being DELIGHTFUL as always. |
Meryl, you are the butter to my bread and the breath to my life. You are the only reason I can make it through this movie each day. May you live forever!

Julie & Julia Quote of the Day: "I was only a file clerk."
All future articles must refer to you as "Lawrence Dai, ironic screenshotter" - don't think "blogger" holds anymore. Step your game up, dude. Write something. Make some sense.
ReplyDeleteI have to be honest; part of the reason why I started following this over a month ago is because I was pretty sure you'd just snap and write a post where you just lose your shit and make the imminent descent into madness.
ReplyDeleteYou seem to be holding yourself together pretty well -- better than I probably would be if I were in your situation.
Still, though. I bet that post is going to be amazing.
Until then, it's been a pretty entertaining ride.
I second Doug.
ReplyDeleteafter seeing all that hate, this one made me smile, especially the hat making one :)
ReplyDeleteshe is really good in this movie.
ReplyDeleteand I am pulling for you to make it.
I love your blog. I just started reading but I love it.
ReplyDeleteTruth - I have google alerts set for Julie Powell because I LOVE her (sorry), and this is just awesome.
LOVE it.
Plz ignore Garrett, somebody is just being a frumpy buns today.
ReplyDeleteYou and me Laural - it feels like we are the only ones on the planet who like Julie Powell!
ReplyDeleteThe one with the onions has been screengrabbed, printed out, and shoved inside the case of my onion goggles.
