Cribs!

Posted by on Saturday, July 18, 2009 · 1 Comment 

While I was distracting myself with a lil’ telly (so that I could avoid transcribing the final two Paramore interviews), I happened to turn on MTV and see The All-American Rejects hosting an episode of Cribs. Immediately, I was struck with two thoughts:

1. I had no idea they still made Cribs.

2. Doth my eyes deceive me or is that my literary awesomeness I see on the screen??? Okay, technically speaking, it’s a snipe of the first AAR cover for Alternative Press but I wrote it so, by the transitive property, I WAS TOTALLY ON CRIBS TODAY!! See for yourself…

BAM! Right side of the screen!!

BAM! Right side of the screen!!

BLOOP! Left side of the screen!

BLOOP! Left side of the screen!

BING!! Hiding on the left side of the screen!!

BING!! Hiding on the left side of the screen!!

Back in my old Cleveland apartment, I even had the same poster displayed in my office-slash-dining area. (Man, do I miss that place. Best. Apartment. Ever.) Lookie…

BANG! My wall looks so pretty!!

BAH-ZING!! Great interior decorators thing alike.

Thanks, Nick Wheeler, for totes making my day!!
