I always fancied myself not a Keira Knightly fan, but lately she’s just releasing these films that I can’t wait to see.
(By the way, Last Night was a really good film, but you’ll probably break up with your boyfriend after seeing it because you won’t trust him. Just a heads up)
Anyway, Keira Knightly is in a new movie, A Dangerous Method, and it has all my favorite elements: British people, crazy people, and an epic, sordid love affair.
A Dangerous Method is out November 10th.
Psychology 101: Lee D. Edition
Posted on: March 12, 2011
(Editor’s note: This has been sitting in my draft box since 6AM this morning. I got up because I couldn’t sleep and then tried to write and gave up in 15 minutes…. it may or may not be funnier than it was at 6AM)
Are people over Lee D. and bowling… because I’m Not. And in reality… I’m just not over that jacket. I sewed piping on my own black blazer in honor of it all. (Holla Tim Gunn). Jackets like that deserve to me memorialized and nothing else.
When I have my own Ken doll... I'd really like it to have this jacket and real human hair
Remember in psychology 101 when you would discuss facial expressions and human emotion?? I tried to find the universal image of that, but clearly the world-wide web is just obsessed with John Travolta’s face and/or Scientology and this came up in the results.
His face actually looks the same in every picture; massive butt chin and scientology lover is all I can get out that…. but it was too funny to pass up even if it does not prove my point.
Good thing I have Lee D.’s face to teach psychology and human emotion. Now, this may vary from your text-book… but trust me. I have a college degree. (Swear to Oprah I do)
Lee D. is beginning to laugh at joke he’s telling in his head whilst singing. I guess you can group this in with a multi-tasking facial expression too.
This is the expression of someone who is about to sneeze. I’m pretty sure.
This is just him singing. I already pulled it and posted it so I had to use it.
That is a man whistling. Whistling while he works… literally.
This is the most interesting. He’s wondering where Oprah is. In fact…that’s the look of pure disappointment. I almost feel bad for him.
Remember “fight or flight”…. this is kinda like that. He’s panicking because he just saw the silhouette of a man in a top hat and wasn’t sure if Abe Lincoln’s ghost came to bowl with him or not. Kinda creepy.
He’s just shouting. This is definitely during “Stay”.
Okay… so reading this now at 3:20PM it’s not as funny. This was definitely written in my delusional state. But, what can I say… I didn’t graduate with a psych degree… I only took psychology 101 at that was senior year in high school.
I’m not a doctor!
Listen to “Sweet Serendipity/Fast Car” because it’s genius. It’s as if Lee D. studied psych in college.
And then just listen to “Earth Stood Still” because this song will MAKE YOU a genius after listening to it.
Feel smarter already don’t ya??

Lee D. Teaches Us About Jealousy

jeal·ous·y (j

)
that's a heavy definition Webster
Wow. That was an intense definition. I was not expecting it to be that heavy. I didn’t think it’d bring the mood down so much. Sorry about that. Way to go Lee bear. (I’m just gonna blame the dark cloud over us now on him).
Word on the street is people go cray cray over this song. And rightfully so.. it’s a great song. I like to sit with a bag a pretzels and cry while I listen to it. I’m just kidding.. that would be weird. I’m not THAT pathetic.
Anyway…when Lee D. did this song for .276 seconds at the mall…. I think some people may have fainted. I’ll show you… but sit down. I don’t need any law suits on my hands.
Are you guys still alive?? Good. Keep reading.
The Professor Bear persona returns and hits us with knowledge, and schools us on one of the seven deadly sins through song. I love learning through song. I’m such an avid fan of School House Rock and Magic School Bus. (I totally gotta ask Lee bear about that during the interview Jamboree!)
let me tell you about some psychological emotions... like jealousy. I wrote a little diddy for ya.
This got me thinking about jealousy. I’m not really a jealous person, but when it comes to Lee D… there is one thing I am jealous of.
HIS HAIR!!!
- Be jealous of my locks
UGH!! That kills me. Why does a guy have better hair than me?? Isn’t the female in me supposed to automatically give me better hair?? I don’t know if I want to touch it or cut it off while he’s sleeping out of intense jealousy. Is that too much?? Probably. I just turned into a creepy psycho. Sorry. I’ve been watching way too much Pretty Little Liars.
don't touch me hair
(okay… I totally made him sound like a leprechaun in that sentence. And I kind of like it. I’m gonna leave that typo alone. I’m jealous of his leprechaun-ness now. Great.)
And then this got me thinking… what kind of jealousy is in Lee bear’s life??
I realized there is so much going on.. hence this song. If you ask him… I’m 97% positive he’d agree with everything I’m about to lay out for you. You’re welcome.
1) Red hat is jealous of treat hat. This is the most obvious. Lee D. has kicked that red hat to the curb and it is nowhere to be seen. Red hat probably lurks in the corner of the closet and falls to pieces every time Lee D. picks up the treat hat.
red hat: I think about him wearing you... and there's nothing more that I can do.
(yes… the hat is singing. And that is funny.)
grey hat: heeeey suck it red!
2) Lee D. makes Andrew Garcia jealous of Donald Duck. There was some bromance drama over the holidays if we all recall. Lee D. was flaunting his new friendship with Donald Duck all over the internet. Posing for pictures and going out for beers with that damn duck. Poor Andrew… never saw it coming. He’d catch a grenade for Lee D. and everything.
Andrew: jealous of the hand that you hold.... I mean fin. What do ducks have?? Wings??
Donald: Yeah.. jump in front of that train buddy. Lee's my bro now...QUACK!
4)
I don’t care what Lee D. says or what he doesn’t wear… Lee D. is jealous of the warmth and style that sits on Linc The Sink’s head.
Okay.. this may not be true…I just wanted to bring up the hat of all freakin’ hats again. But I’m sure if Lee D. knew that hat existed, he’d be super jealous of Linc The Sink for owning it and wearing it with such pride.
See what could be yours someday Lee bear?? See??
Now, I know that’s only 3 examples… but that’s all I could logically come up with, without sounding crazy. And don’t lie… those are totally reasonable things that could occur out of jealousy. And this is all the truth. Have I ever made up completely ridiculous things about Lee D.? I’m glad you are all shaking your head “no” in a vigorous manner.
I should be a freakin’ psychologist.
Since this was all about the song “Me & My Jealousy” I’ve decided to post the song. Now… I have a great chipmunk version that will make you forget all about that new whore that’s dating your ex-boyfriend (seriously… chipmunks are funny and that chick probably looks like one.. you’re way prettier and smarter. He’s an idiot) and I have one video with scenes from Vampire Diaries. If you add Ian Somerhalder and Paul Wesley to a video with any song playing in the background… the song is a hit. Not that “M&MJ” needed any help.
Oh Oprah… that still cracks me up. Anyone can swoop in and steal my boyfriend and this shit would still be funny. Trust me. It works.
OH THE ANGST!! CW needs to get on this shit and STAT.
And here is one with actual Lee D. pictures bouncing around. I just spent 3 minutes and 46 seconds watching this as if it was a movie. I need help.
Ohhhh and look who just showed up….
*brrr* I need to interpretive dance to stay warm... Chicago in the wind never seemed so cold.
Good one dancing baby. Good one.
By the way… when I write out “M&MJ” that reminds me of PB & J. Just wanted to share that with you. I’m gonna ask Lee bear what kind of fruit spread he prefers and if he says anything but raspberry jam… it’s over. I definitely can’t be friends with people who say grape.
The strawberry jam in my fridge is so pissed, jealous if you will, every time I grab the raspberry. But this is only if fruit had feelings of course.
I’m gonna go listen to “Me & My Jealousy” again… the chipmunk version of course.

Lee D. Likes Brett Favre

I have written way too much about this guy in the past week.
And by this guy I mean Brett Favre…. not Lee bear of course.
But after I hear that he likes the penis showing Brett Favre… I may have to rethink my adoration of Lee bear.
This just shows the difference between men and women. Hear me out (this is going to get deep):
Women will like another woman, but once they hear of a flaw in character (and for example we’ll say sending text messages of one’s hoo-ha to an unsuspecting man), us females, question whether we can still enjoy this chick. (and the man getting that sex-t message is just thrilled).
But if a man hears of another man’s flaw in character (and to stick with the genital theme, we’ll say a man sending a picture of his penis-I can’t think of a funny name- to an unsuspecting female), that just goes unnoticed because he’s still super good at throwing a football 100 yards.
Wow… sorry. I just got all psychological and all sociological (is that a word?) up in here! I did learn something in college. Mamadukes has a look of pure pride on her face as she read this… and she’s just happy I said hoo-ha and not vagina. Oopsie…. just said it!
Anyway… Lee bear, though a fan of Da Bears, likes Brett Favre (and apparently that man played for the Green Bay Packers… a team his brother is a fan of)
I feel like I know way too much about the DeWyze household and this post is just weird.
I can’t figure out how to post this interview so just click on that great picture (that’s GQ bear) and listen to it.
And afterward think long and hard (no pun intended) about my penis/hoo-ha showing theory.
Don't judge me because I like Brett Favre... it has nothing to do with his body and everything to do with the way he throws things really far
Wow… I can not wait to never talk about football again.

First off, I just have to say these long interviews are hard to swallow, because I have to watch them twice. The first time, I have to seriously watch it and just be myself. And then I have to watch it a second time, be Rocco and make fun of it. This specific interview is 10 minutes of my life…. Lee D. is lucky his hair is so perfect in this video, or I’d ask for those 10 minutes back.
The interviewer man is Andrew Freund… I automatically think Freud (the psychologist guy) and know this guy is going to be good. And he is…. good interview buddy. Panic ran through my body instantly. This guy needs to take it down a few notches.
Freud: I'm a genius and this is Lee./ Lee D: This guy is gooood. Watch your back Rocco
I can never top that!! I’m done! Freud guy ruined my future, and now I’m gonna have to fake being homeless with Alex Lambert and I’ll probably have to grow a mullet.
Lee bear will mock my dumb questions after this intelligent, well thought out, and not boring interview. How can I top “How do you feel social networking has helped your career???” WTF!?!??! Is this 60 minutes??
That’s his big finale question…. wanna know what mine is??? I’m deciding between: “Do you prefer pancakes or French Toast?” and “What character are you in Mario Kart when you play??” And the rest of them are at that caliber as well.
Wow… looks like I need to put a little more thought into this interview Jamboree.
Anyway…. this interview is excellent and it really makes me question my life and ability at everything I do in my life.
1) The hair looks beautiful.
Take a look at my oil and avocado conditioned hair... let's all have a moment of silence for it
2) Freud boy needs to not be so good at his job… he’s making me self-conscious.
3) Nice polo shirt… this just drives my non-gay Gap ad point home.
Fall into the Gap, Fall into the Gap
4) Man crush on Steven Tyler dude…. it’s getting intense.
5) STOP SHOWING OFF YOUR MUSCLES… he’s like The Situation all of a sudden but without the STD’s.
Freud: Yes... yes I am. Lee D: You checking out my guns bro!
6) He clearly hated everyone during his season…you can see him planning how to quit the show if he had to live with everyone. He turned into day-dream bear and was planning how to fake his own death to get out of that group house.
Hmm *strokes chin*... I'd do anything as long as my hair doesn't get hurt... so fire is out!
7) 2 part questions about the advice thing… 2 part questions?!?! Stop being so good. This is how my two-part question will go:
Rocco: Ummm what language did you take in high school?
Lee bear: Why does that even matter? *puzzled look*
Rocco: Ummm was it Spanish Amigo?? *nervous laugh*
Lee bear: *blank stare* Que???
(then we would laugh and high five… so maybe my 2 part question is okay??)
8 ) “No beef with idol” …. I was hoping he’d say “no qualms with idol”. Love that word. I’m gonna ask him if he likes that word. See?? I’m still in the mind-set of asking dumb questions! I can’t stop. I need to contact this Freud guy STAT… get some tips.
9) Keep in touch with your fans??? You can keep in touch with me by wearing THE HAT OF ALL FREAKIN’ HATS!! Lee bear and I are so out of touch right now, I need a passport to get to him. (that was actually an awesome analogy, so take that Freud man!!)
The whole point of this post was about the Amish… so let me get back to that.
Man: I'd wish she'd get back to the Amish thing/ Woman: Me too! This is why we break the rules, use electricity and read this stupid blog. WE WANT AMISH BEAR!
He is slowly transforming into Amish bear…. look at that beard. Let me show you the transformation:
Full blown Amish. So Amish he can't even smile about it.
So far away from Amish he's using electricity; television. Plus, he looks like he just missed a huge chunk of hair on his face while shaving... no Amish bear here!
40% Amish bear... see it??? It's kinda expanding. I can see it in his eyes... he's thinking about how he misses his horse & buggy and churning butter.
So yeah… don’t be surprised if by Sunday he’s in a Pilgrim outfit doing an acoustic set at the half time show.
I don’t mind…he can go Pilgrim, he just has to find THE HAT OF ALL FREAKIN’ HATS in all black. No excuses. The Amish need to keep warm in Chi town too.

P.S. Don’t steal my awesome questions. Thanks.
