Conan O'Brien is an inspiration


 Dear Internet,

My cynicism is officially dead. While watching the end of Conan's run as the host of The Tonight Show, Conan tearfully pointed to the camera and told me (not really only me but I felt as if he were talking to me so shhh!!!) to stop being cynical, work hard, and become a nice person. While I feel that I am a nice person, I have my moments of undeniable cynicism. I used to be somewhat optimistic about life, but after moving to L.A. last year and having my smart ass handed to me, my outlook on life seemed to change. Conan has helped me see the light. I will no longer look at life and point out what's wrong with it. I will forever and always be thankful that I am still alive and blessed to be here. I am, from this point on, a positive person. I will wake up and smile in the morning, while I do a little dance to my WAKE UP IT'S MORNING! iTunes playlist.

Thank you Conan. FOREVER TEAM COCO!

The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien is Officially Dead

The Tonight Show is officially the laughing stock of my bedroom. Conan "The Little Red Head That Could" O'Brien, is no longer going to be NBC's scapegoat. He took a stand, got a whole bunch of money that I would never see in one lifetime, and quit this bitch. 

I once had tickets to see Conan do his thing, while I was living in LA. However, I spent way too much time accessorizing and showed up late for the taping. I was put on stand-by and never went back. I moved back home shortly after. I really upset that I was never able to see Conan, but I'm almost sure this isn't the last of him. 


As for The Tonight Show with The Chin? I had enough of him and that pre-pubescent laughter five years ago. I won't be watching that tomfoolery. I'm officially a Letterman fan. His last scandal (while disgusting and wrong on so many levels) was like a hug from Baby Jesus. I instantly liked Letterman when he admitted to being a dirty old douche bag. America doesn't need free health care, an honest talk show host will do just fine. 


Who knows? This could be the one thing that Conan needs to take over the world. With Oprah stepping down, I need a new hero. 


The name Conan is already getting a face lift. Two faces will come to mind when someone mentions the name to me. This one:

And this one:

And this one. And this one. And this one!!!!!!!!!


Okay I had a little moment, but Jason Momoa (The Hot Bitch above) has just been cast as Conan the Barbarian in a remake of the old school Arnold Schwarzenegro movie Conan the Barbarian. Some people might know Jason from nerd porn Stargate: Atlantis, or as Lisa Bonet's hot piece, but I remember him from that dumbass Johnson's Family Vacation movie that my aunt drug me to go see. I damn near went into a coma until Jason showed up on the screen. My lady parts immediately fell in love...


Back to Conan O'Brien: 
I will miss seeing him on the tele while he's gone. I hope he makes it back soon. 

My favorite Conan moments:

Rebirth: The Beard



Once every blue moon I would like to talk about a rebirth. I know I should use the word renaissance, but that's too formal and I tend to not give a damn.

So today my rebirth would be on The Beard.

Recently, there has been an influx of beards on the red carpets of Hollywood. The best I've seen so far is Jon Hamm from the show Mad Men.
Jon Hamm

Now my mom loves this show. I hate it and here's why:
Around the time (and don't worry I'll get to my original point in a second) the show promoting for its first season, the only promo ad was a series of scenes from the show along with the song You Know I'm No Good by Amy Winehouse. So now no matter when I see Jon Hamm I hear boom boom boom ba boom. Every time. Every single time. I hate it!

Although Jon looks damn good with his beard, there are always the whiny people out there that just don't want to accept the fact that men have hair that grow out of their faces. These are also the people that complain about Conan's hair.

Speaking of Conan, does anyone else remember when he grew a beard for the writer's strike? He looked damn good! I tuned in every night to see Conan transform from my 14 year old bratty lab partner into a man. I swear Conan's ratings would have been a lot higher if he had the beard. Maybe Jay could grow one to hide that damn chin. Quick who would win in the battle of the chin: Jay Leno or Jennifer Aniston?

Back to beards.

I think the world is still in shock over that Brad Pitt beard.



That thing had no shape, no form, and no purpose. He claimed it was for a movie role, but I'm almost sure he had already done 12 Monkeys. However, if my lady parts liked Brad Pitt I'm sure I would have still been in mourning, but I liked the beard. So hip hip hooray for the beard. Welcome to your rebirth.

My Favorite Beards of all time:
