Fuck Kevin Bacon. (But not in a bad way. Kevin Bacon is fine. This is a conceptual title. Stop yelling at me, Kevin Bacon fans.)

September 10, 2009

in I'm an idiot, Post that people who don't twitter won't get, Random crap, bizarre, blogging about blogging again, functions I shouldn't be allowed to attend, mixing medications, no one thinks this is funny but me, terrible titles, this blog cures cancer

So remember a couple of months ago when I was speaking at a humor panel at Blogher but they scheduled Tim Gunn (from Project Runway) to appear at the exact same time so I demanded that my minions kidnap Tim Gunn and bring him to the humor panel and then the PR company handling Tim Gunn caught on and I had to distance myself from the whole thing so I wouldn’t be implicated and so the night before the panel I went to see Carson Kressley from Queer Eye for the Straight Guy to convince him to come to the humor panel and just stand next to me because the only way to fight a Tim Gunn is with a Carson Kressley but then Carson was all “Um…no” and I tried to seduce him but he wasn’t into me so I told him I was a drag queen and spoke really throatily and I’m all “Seriously.  This is a wig.  See.” and he just kind of looked at me so I’m all “Fine. Will you at least sign my boobs so you’re there in spirit?” and he did but rather unwillingly?  No?  You don’t remember that at all?  Well that’s probably because I got distracted and forgot to write about it.  I am the worst blogger in the history of ever. So fine.  Let’s catch up…

I sent out these tweets in July:

  • My Blogher panel is competing with Tim Gunn from Project Runway. Awesome.
  • We must strike down Tim Gunn. Or find a way to lure him to our panel. Someone get on that.
  • Minions, activate! Tim Gunn is sweet but easily confused. Use that to your advantage.
  • But be careful. Tim Gunn easily spooks. He’ll be at the Tide booth so you just need to find a way to move the Tide booth into our room.
  • Seriously, he’ll go wherever that Tide booth goes. The Tide booth is key here. Don’t get caught.
  • Also, nothing can be tied to my name for legal reasons. If you get caught, blame blogher. They drove us to this.
  • And by “us” I mean “you”.
  • Shit! The Tide people have found this thread. Abort!
  • Tide people, I had nothing to do with this conspiracy to kidnap Tim Gunn or your booth. I just heard about it myself. So weird.

Then the whole Carson Kressely debacle happened.

Then we had our humor panel which was awesome even though I had a panic attack and ended up sitting on the edge of the stage in case I needed to crawl under it because I FORGOT MY XANAX IN MY ROOM and I’m rummaging through my purse madly minutes before we begin and a girl sitting near me is all “Are you looking for drugs?” and I’m all “Yeah.  Is it obvious?” but then someone else in the audience slipped me a tranquilizer and I didn’t take it because I didn’t know how it would react in my system but it made me feel better just knowing it was next to me and that’s why I love chick blogging conferences.  Because someone nearby always has sedatives to share.

The end.

Oh wait, no.  I still have more story.  But that would have been a good end so if you want to stop there I don’t blame you.  Then the panel ended and I ran back to my room to hide except the hotel “accidentally” kicked us out and changed the locks on us and then I got an email from the head of the company doing PR for Tide that she had Tim Gunn trapped in a hotel room and that I should come down.  And I did.  And he was lovely and charming and genuine and I found myself blurting out how sorry I was for the “whole kidnapping conspiracy thing” and he looked at me kind of blankly but still kindly and the head PR lady gave me this look like “We didn’t tell Tim Gunn about the kidnapping conspiracy” so then I tried to change the subject and I’m all “Seriously, I adore you.  Can I molest you?” and then he started blushing and I’m all  ”Shit.  Above the belt, I mean” like that’s going to make it better but instead of running away he said “Certainly, Jenny”.  TIM GUNN REMEMBERED MY NAME, Y’ALL.  And then I lightly molested him and so did Alli and I’m all “Would you consider adopting me?  Or give me some sperm or a hair follicle so I can clone you?”  He didn’t respond but I’m pretty sure it’s just because he didn’t hear me because he is totally the kind of guy that would give you a cup of sperm if you really needed one.  In other words, he’s a gentleman.  William Shatner could learn a lot from him.

Tim Gunn ~ Big Pimpin'

I love this set because he looks a little scared at first but then he's all "Aw fuck, let's just run with it". Except he probably doesn't say "fuck". Even in his head. He's just *that* charming.

Then this morning I read that Tim Gunn is going to be featured in an Iron Man comic:

293.ad.IronMan.Gunn.052209

So basically that means I’m  ONE FUCKING DEGREE FROM IRON MAN.  I called Victor to tell him because he’s at a conference and he was all “Do you have any idea what time it is here?” and I’m like “Time zones mean nothing to me.  Iron Man!”  Then he hung up.  Probably because he was too intimidated by me and Iron Man.

PS.  On an utterly unrelated note (except for the fact that this happened the same day I touched Tim Gunn and I forgot to write about it too)  Deb and Anna and I ran right into the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile, which seemed like an ironic tie-in for a chick conference but when someone offers you a chance to stroke the Wienermobile you don’t say no.  Unless you’re Deb, who told the Oscar Mayer rep that she wasn’t that into it because she’s a vaginatarian.  And the weinie-mobile chick was like “A vegetarian?  We have vegetarian products” and Deb was all “No. A VAGINAtarian” and the girl just kind of smiled blankly and ran away.  Then I’m all “I don’t think she got it.  Maybe you should’ve just said ‘lesbian‘?” and Deb was all “Oh no.  She totally got it”.  Then someone might have put a Bloggess sticker on the wienie-mobile as it was pulling away and it certainly wasn’t me and then Anna was yelling “WHO DEFILED THE WEINER-MOBILE?”    The end. Again.

PPS.  In hindsight, I think I should have ended this at the first “the end”.  Or maybe skipped all this and just posted a link to a video of a cat taking a shower instead.  That probably would have been less confusing for all of us.

Comment of the day: So… don’t kidnap Tim Gunn? Shit. We really need to work out a better system for communication. Don’t get me wrong, this way is fun, but I’ve kind of committed here. Would it be bad… if… let’s say… someone already cut off his finger? I’m not saying it happened, but… okay. It happened. But it wasn’t me. Okay. It was me. But you said “kidnap” and everyone knows that means somebody’s losing a finger. Whatever. I’ll let him go but someone’s going to have to explain this to the Tide people. Not it. ~ MayoPie

In college, I tried to hijack the Oscar Meyer Wienermobile, but I had just a tad too much to drink.

I think I really do want to stalk you now. Not only did you have the nerve to molest Tim Gunn, which is as good as Iron Man, really, but you molested the Weinermobile and I love it! Then, you post a cat video that is just channeling my great-grandma Caroline, God rest her soul, who looks JUST LIKE THAT CAT. It’s hard to explain, but I think you just linked my great-grandmother and me across the mortal veil, and THAT MAKES YOU BETTER THAN IRON MAN!

We passed the weinermobile on the way to church the other day. Kind of puts you in a state of shock for a nano second when that shit happens. It didn’t even register in my mind what just happened until my mom pointed it out. It might as well have been a 2006 silver volvo until my mom was all “Did you just see the weiner car?” And I was all “Oh yeah, I totally did.” And it was on the way to church which I think somehow adds color to the story.

We tried to get into the humor panel to see you but that room was PACKED and there was no way another body was possible. We heard that even people who had been in the room in the session before who just left their stuff still had a hard time finding seats. I hope next time you’ll get a larger venue.
I did get to meet Tim Gunn, though, since I wasn’t laughing my ass off with you. I truly don’t think he could be a lovelier person. After I got my autographed pic of him, I had to pee, and of course I took him in with me b/c I wasn’t going to leave the pic on the wet sink or anything. I propped up my mini Tim on the toilet cover dispenser on the wall. Except that I left him facing out, so I basically made Tim Gunn watch me pee. What was I thinking? He deserved better. The shame is on me.

And THIS is why you are THE Bloggess. You got a gay guy to touch your boobs, a famous fashionista to remember your name, your face on the most famous bun(s) in the history of bun(s) and you didn’t even cheat on your husband despite the fact that you’re one degree of separation from Iron Man so you could have any man any where ever. Awesome. You have deepened my chick-crush, I’m nearing the send inappropriate gifts phase.

Confession and Ultimate Compliment:
At night, after I put my seven month old twins to sleep,
I pump a day’s worth of milk out of my breasts.
And read your blog.
Because I can’t have alcohol until after I pump.
And your blog is the next best thing to alcohol.
Now go pat yourself on the back
and consider me your best friend
until someone says that you are better than alcohol.
Don’t hold your breath.

Tim Gunn’s face is a lot bigger than I think it should be. You know what else I love about Tim Gunn? That his name has to be said as “Tim Gunn” and not Tim or Timmy or Mr. Gunn or Spatzboy. I’m going to name my dogs Tim Gunn and Paul McCartney. But my cats have to die first. Jack says I’m not allowed to have any more pets until then, but when they go? I am going to have some KICK ASS mittens. And 2 dogs.

1. I totally miss you
2. Carson had a pole up his ass. Or maybe it wasn’t a pole so much as rubber squeegee mop. I think that it was so far up there that it was causing his lips to puff out like there were squeegees in there. Which pretty much solves the whole mystery of why he was not ready to run off with you that night. Because really, it’s not all that easy to run with a squeegee up your ass.

Also you are just not convincing as a drag queen. I’m so sorry to break that to you. I tried really hard to be your straight girl friend who hangs around studiously hoping to get really good at gluing on false eyelashes and walking in platform heels. But at the end of the night I was still useless at all of those things and you were still a little *too* feminine. I was pissed off that Carson never told me how to look hot in pictures either. Probably because of the pole. So what did I learn that night anyway? Oh yeah, stick to vodka. The whiskey wasn’t a great idea. But that was much later on!

Ok, so I literally just found your blog, like, a week ago or whenever you posted about your hand-job GPS system, and then TWO DAYS ago I had a partial thyroidectomy and then YESterday I read this post, but I was still pretty heavily aentesthetized so it didn’t make any sense and I had to save it in my feed reader so that I could read it today, because I wasn’t sure if the bit about you meeting Tim Gunn was real.

ALL THAT TO SAY, if I ever met Tim Gunn I would probably do something stupid like fold my hands and press my index fingers to my lips and tell him in a soothing monotone that his jacket concerned me, and then I would not have these HIGH-larious photos that you have. So count lucky stars, or something.

I was so excited because I thought you were going to start a movement to ensnare Kevin Bacon so that we could have our way with him. But then I realized you were doing the 6 degree thing. And you totally won because you are now only 1 degree away from Iron Man the comic. Which is like the spiritual side of the physical Iron Man which is RDJ. So f*ck Kevin Bacon indeed (not in that sense) when you have a chance to, cough cough, do it with RDJ (yes, in that sense). Do let us know when you get to molest RDJ.

I remember Ben Gunn, but he was a character in Treasure Island. And I have never seen the weinermobile except in pictures. I am glad I found you, because I seriously need a hip transplant and not the kind folks my age usually get. And the worst part is that I secretly think I am hip (or I THOUGHT I was).
