From today's Philadelphia Inquirer:
"Wrote Tom and Lorenzo, the brilliantly snarky (does anyone say snarky anymore?) Philadelphia bloggers at Project Rungay, ruminating on a Project Runway decision to reinstate an already-aufed contestant, whom they call Sissy Bear: " . . . one thing we always bear in mind to prevent tearing our hair out is THIS IS A REALITY SHOW. They can do whatever . . . they want to make it more entertaining."
Reality, in these obsessive circles, signals "an environment in which it is OK to impose arbitrary rules to increase drama." Kind of profound, really. A faux-reality.
(Project Rungay readers also came up with this new gem: titscrepancy, to describe breasts of mismatched proportions.)"
We're ALL fabulous!(No real reason for the picture. But it looks good, yes?)

Hell, yes, we say "snarky" when it's preceded by "brilliantly" and is describing our beloved Rungay boys!
You boys are going to need a clipping service soon. But one question: Who's the Mr. Studly, in the picture? I didn't see him in the Inquirer article. Is this all about changing 'reality' to increase drama?

How fucking fabulous is that? Love it, boys!!
I was all proud of myself for making up the word "sissybear" until one of my bear friends told me it's a rather common term. Dang!
Yeah! Finally, some recognition from the homefront! Congrats.
Love it. Love it. Love it.
And the eye candy is nice, too.
Congrats on the recognition and thanks for the eye candy! What is he modeling ... doorknobs??
Ok boys, don't be thinking a Pulitzer is on the way just yet, but you do point out that Reality TV, especially in the form of a contest show is getting too out of hand.
You guys rock!

Hey, I say "snarky" as often as the Princess says "fierce"! Does that make me...oh wait, never mind.
Thanks for the REAL eye candy, boys! Just the pick-me-up I needed on a dreary, back to work day.
The pretty picture reminds me to ask - will you boys be doing anything with the new "Make Me A Supermodel" series?
Oh and hey! I just went and checked the Fantasy Runway results, and while I'm gratified that I've been able to get that wonky site to register my picks, I need to vent a little about certain moderators from certain other PR sites who are playing the game when I know at least one of them has acknowledged on the site that she acquired some insider info about future results from Tim. So why then is she still playing, harumph, harumph? I noticed our Fearless Leaders obviously exempted themselves after Week One.
Disclaimer: I think it's important to get pissy about something stupid at least once a month. Especially in the winter.
That man is HOT HOT HOT.
Oh yes, congrats, bitches!
Boys, you're forgiven for the late delivery of this Christmas *package*. Eye candy indeed: are his briefs made from Hershey anything?

LOL. PRG readers are fabulous, that's for sure.
I want an underwear challenge! Men's of course.
I knew it all along. :-)
YAY! Project Rungay is made of awesome. And snark. And fabulosity.
three posts in one day!!
I lve you guys :)
Titscrepancy? Oh My God! So that's what I have! Finally, a diagnosis. Now, is there a name for a condition in which said mismatched breasts also resemble acorns yet are marshmallow-like in texture and tone? The causes of this malady are clear (they are in elementary school now and I got rid of them the painful traditional unmedicated way which didn't necessarily help OTHER matters but that's a different topic) but it would be good to name - -you know, really own the condition. But I'm halfway there with titscrepancy. Big boozy air kiss again!
Methinks a video of the eye candy would have been nice! Just think, all of our eyes would have been going ding-gada-dingity-ding-ding in time with his thing going up that runway!
Congrats on your growing fame! Just think, legions of us disciples. Bobble-heads soon?! And what would the TLo bobbles say?

TLO-
Thanks for the video link! :-) A nice pick-me-up as the temperature hovers around "1".
However, I'm a little over the 'cop on the edge' five-o-clock shadow.
(Guess I'm right there with AgnesGooch: "Disclaimer: I think it's important to get pissy about something stupid at least once a month. Especially in the winter.")
Ah! To be in the electronic presence of such talent, such wit, such snark. It's as though Dorothy Parker and the Algonquin Round Table have been resurrected and housed on the web. And we are all invited!!!
Congratulations, boys, and thanks - you make us think and laugh at the same time - two excellent yet highly underrated activities.
You need a reason to post a picture like that? No, I didn't think so.

True. And, I'm reminded of the scene from an old Buster Keaton movie where two society-type women are sitting around by the country club swimming pool and discussing the men there.
One of them says, 'You can't judge a husband by a bathing suit.' And the other replies, 'No, but you can get a rough idea.'

LOL. Sugar pie, watch the video, there are some girls in it : )
YAY!!!

xoxooxo
YAY! Sure signs of a fabulous year to come!!!
Boys, I have a feeling '08 is going to be BEYOND fabulous!! If that asshole Perez Hilton can have his own show , well BRAVO- WAKE UP! We want a PR ReCap show with TLo!!!!
In other news...
"certain moderators from certain other PR sites who are playing the game when I know at least one of them has acknowledged on the site that she acquired some insider info about future results from Tim. "
Whaaaaat? THATS BULLSHIT!! Whichever one of you it is, pull yourself out. Thats simply ridiculous!
Love the eye candy, boys!!
Don't stop believin'!
Hold onto that feeling!
Perez Hilton has a show ? If a no talent arse wipe like him can be given a show, then I feel our 2 boys should be given one too.
I think Tom and Jerry will go over well. I wonder if Tom will giveus his monastic stare with no smile and Lo can give us his Little man Tate cheez whiz, here I am photo look.
Actually you guys aren't actually made for TV.Stick to what you're doing.
I'm so excited, my new word is catching on quickly!
Congrats to you two, as well!

Legally, he's not allowed to smile.
One charismatic flash of his pearlies is enough to give a pants-ripping boner to all men in America, simultaneously.
Our global pants economy is at stake.
and Lo can give us his Little man Tate cheez whiz, here I am photo look.
Little known fact... he actually went back in time and taught a young Judy Garland that look. That look is now a National Treasure, and it is insured by the Smithsonian Institute for a billion dollars.
He won the Congressional Medal of Honor for his efforts.
"alex! said: One charismatic flash of his pearlies is enough to give a pants-ripping boner to all men in America, simultaneously."
Hmmm...I wonder if that would look like the Rockettes kick line.
Something to think about.

Difficult time reading the article because of being distracted by the picture. :::fanning self:::
Someone mentioned a 5 o'clock shadow. Who the hell is looking at his face?
I'm sorry, you said something? I was, uh, distracted...
