Hi Jenny. How are you? Go away!
For every minute of Jenny Humphrey awfulness that they take away, we would gain an extra minute of amazing Chuck Bass debauchery and/or hysterical Blair Waldorf and Serena van der Woodsen cattiness and/or oddly hairless Dan Humphrey and Nate Archibald undressedness. Jenny’s fashion superstar storyline is just absolutely ridiculous. She’s fifteen! And lame! And not related to anything else on the show! Otherwise Gossip Girl is made of awesome.

Umm…I guess I should be watching then? I’ll give it a shot…maybe…..thanks for the 3 hour heads up!
By Nicky, October 13, 2008 @ 11:26 pm
Who is this girl? Is this a real tv show?!
OH! This is the show where two of the lead actors are in the closet and date each other in real life! Now I know it…

OMG, your background is blue argyle. Please tell me it hasn’t always been thus and I’ve only noticed it now? I love it.
By Ryan R., October 14, 2008 @ 12:00 am
I was hoping that I was the first to notice the argyle background.
Tam, all argyle comments belong in the argyle mega thread of death.
By Ryan R., October 14, 2008 @ 12:08 am
In content related comments: I agree that Jenny’s fashion excellence is completely unrealistic.
By Brian, October 14, 2008 @ 2:05 am
I had some appreciation for Jenny as a character until this season. Now she’s negligible. She should go steal something again, that’ll make sure interesting. ;p
By Chris, October 14, 2008 @ 4:00 am
I don’t watch that show (big surprise I guess). She is actually kind of pretty. She looks a bit like Christina Applegate, who looked like this girl I totally had a crush on in high school.
By Dave S., October 14, 2008 @ 4:47 am
Killer argyle, Craig. Pure genius.
By Dave S., October 14, 2008 @ 7:25 am
I’ve never seen this show, but something I’ve always wondered: Why is it called Gossip Girl?
Okay, so we turned on the tube at around 8:55 to watch Heroes at 9. The end of Chuck was wrapping up (I don’t watch the show) and all I kept thinking was “This guy reminds me of Craig.” But I couldn’t put my finger on exactly why. Was it his mannerisms? His sense of cool dorkiness? His face? A combination of things?
Or am I just being crazy…?
By Zee Brat, October 14, 2008 @ 7:54 am
Never watched Gossip Girl. I’m pretty sure based on what you just said that her storyline would be based on 15 year old super fashion designer from Russia, Kira Plastinina. So it’s not THAT unbelievable.
By Hayden, October 14, 2008 @ 8:07 am
I haven’t seen the show but I wish you hadn’t told me she was 15. From this picture she is Hot but I don’t want to say that since she is 15 and I am a couple years older….
By Dave S., October 14, 2008 @ 8:19 am
Hayden: Only a couple?
By polt, October 14, 2008 @ 8:20 am
Ya know, I’m just gonna have to make up a generic comment, something along the lines of “Sorry, I don’t watch ________, butcha know, Torchwood is pretty good.” I can use it everytime you post about a tv show….
HUGS…
By Dave S., October 14, 2008 @ 8:32 am
Polt: Do you have Torchwood on DVD? Might be interesting to watch “sometime,” since I’ve never seen it.
By Bernd, October 14, 2008 @ 8:50 am
It’s devastating with all the Torchwood-virgins here. Worship me, I’ve seen them all.
Jenny winning is boring, Jenny whining is boring, Jenny being harassed by the mean girls is boring, Jenny giving relationship advice to her older brother is snore. She should just go with her dad and older brother on a world-tour. She can do her dad’s stage-wear. bye-bye

Craig: I didn’t get a chance to comment on it first thing this morning and now when I come back the argyle background is gone! I liked it.
What’s Gossip Girl?
By Craig, October 14, 2008 @ 9:13 am
The argyle background will be back at some point. I just threw it up there as a test to see if it would work. I want to take my time and find a pattern I like, and one that fits the site. Keep your eyes peeled and send me any you find!
By polt, October 14, 2008 @ 9:23 am
Dave S.: Do I have Torchwood on DVD? PFFFT, hell YEAH! I got Season 1 and an as yet unopened set of Season 2. And if the Torchwood gods are smiling, perhaps you’ll get to see a bit of it ‘sometime’ soon.
Craiggers: Okay, I know this is likely to get me banned from Puntabulous, but you have to find the right kind of argyle? I thought argyle is argyle is argyle. Course, since I dont own any, not even any socks, I really am argyle-ignorant. And not terribly upset about it, may I say.
Forgive me.
HUGS…
By Craig, October 14, 2008 @ 9:27 am
Okay it’s back. Let me know what you think.
By Dave S., October 14, 2008 @ 9:34 am
Love it. The blue is a great blend with SV & VG in the header. I gotta tell you, you think of everything.
By GoKitty, October 14, 2008 @ 9:49 am
I actually feel bad for Jenny because she did have better storylines in season 1. Her lines of hooker dresses has not impressed me.
I was not expecting Penn Badgley to have such a boy’s body. He was just very flat, everywhere, and untoned.
By Bernd, October 14, 2008 @ 10:08 am
Love the argyle background, Craig, please keep.
By Tam, October 14, 2008 @ 10:30 am
You can almost worship me Bernd. (well free to worship me anyway.) I’ve almost seen all the Torchwood. We have two more episodes to go in season 2 and Polt keeps saying how great the season finale is so I’m looking forward to it. I’d never heard of it until everyone here talked about it, so it’s the fault of Puntabulous that I’m hooked.
By polt, October 14, 2008 @ 10:46 am
Yer gonna LOVE it Tam! I saw part of the ending coming before it happened, but the other part just took me TOTALLY by surprise!
And if I’ve got just one person hooked on it, then my work here is done.
HUGS…
By Dave S., October 14, 2008 @ 10:49 am
Polt: You need a pulpit to evangelize to the masses from. Always spreading the gospel of Torchwood.
(Damn DVD thumpers…)
By Hayden, October 14, 2008 @ 11:23 am
Dave S: ok, a couple if you multiply her by 3 and add a few…but I am soo young at heart….
By polt, October 14, 2008 @ 11:25 am
What, the comments section of Puntabulous ISN’T a pulpit? I’m gonna talk to more people here than I could practically anywhere else!
HUGS..
By Nicky, October 14, 2008 @ 3:27 pm
It’s my pulpit too…
Britney tour announced! Spring 09!!
By Burner, October 14, 2008 @ 4:24 pm
The whole Humphrey clan needs to go on world tour for a few years, at least.
Take Vanessa with them. And take all of Nates shirts as well.

Know what else is going away? Mother’s Circus animal cookies. The horror…

I had dinner with my sister and her husband this evening, and we just happened to catch the tail end of Gossip Girl. It was interesting. However I did not see enough of it to feel invested in it.
I like the Argyle as well. I think the color and pattern works well. The site was a tad plain before. I like that the site is still basic, and not full of crazy graphics. My own site layout has only one image, and it’s a picture of me.
By Chris, October 14, 2008 @ 10:12 pm
Hayden: I was tempted to say that while the character may be 15, the actress was probably in her 20′s. However I looked her up on IMDB just to check, and sure enough she is 15. I suppose that kids grow up fast these days.
By Tam, October 14, 2008 @ 11:06 pm
Chris: Holy crap! She’s 2 years older than my daughter? I think I feel kind of sick.
By Dave S., October 15, 2008 @ 7:15 am
Tam: And one year younger than mine!
By Dave S., October 15, 2008 @ 7:19 am
I drove my daughter and a friend to the mall a couple weekends ago and as they got out of the car, I yelled out, “Don’t be going and finding boys to have sex with!” To which she replied, “That’s okay — we were going to find girls.” Wise-ass.
By Hayden, October 15, 2008 @ 2:19 pm
2:20—welcome you puntabulous addicts…
By Dave S., October 15, 2008 @ 2:29 pm
Woohoo!
By Dave S., October 15, 2008 @ 2:29 pm
You wouldn’t know it, but I’m super-busy today.
Puntabulous is a nice distraction from making me totally stressed out.
By Hayden, October 15, 2008 @ 2:35 pm
Dave S: you really have a job? It must be part time because I think you spend more time on here than Craig…
Worst part time job I have had was teaching a japanese 3 year old English that didn’t give a f about learning English, Hell he could barely speak Japanese!
By Dave S., October 15, 2008 @ 2:43 pm
I’m a creative director, but I work on a Mac and my PC is what I use for internet, so it’s quick and easy for me to check the site, quickly respond, then get back to work.
By Tam, October 15, 2008 @ 3:05 pm
Hey Hayden. Glad I didn’t miss the party.
By Hayden, October 15, 2008 @ 3:10 pm
Welcome Tam, it wouldn’t be one without you, obviously…
By Tam, October 15, 2008 @ 3:14 pm
Awww. You’re sweet. I brought virtual drinks. Your wish is my command.
By Nicky, October 15, 2008 @ 3:19 pm
My job involves sitting in an office doing homework or browsing the web… so I can comment at work too. I’m just not as much of a Craig stalker as Dave
By Bill, October 15, 2008 @ 3:30 pm
…NOT that there’s anything wrong with being a Craig Stalker…..
By Nicky, October 15, 2008 @ 3:56 pm
Speaking of Craig stalking, Britney is number one on the Billboard Hot 100!! This is the first top she topped the chart since “…Baby One More Time.” YAY!
By Craig, October 15, 2008 @ 4:00 pm
Holler!
