Is Diablo Cody in the hate pit?



...you know she used to be a stripper.

Even more entertaining is the blog it came from:

That photo transcends the hate pit into a new physical form from which no light can escape.

I know it's major dead-horse territory, so instead of starting a new thread, I'm gonna piggyback on this one.

The new rant by Cody Diablo on her MySpace page is a classic -

I'm sorry that while you were shooting your failed opus at Tisch, I was jamming toxic silicon toys up my ass for money. I get why you're bitter. I took exactly one film class in college and-- with the curious exception of the Douglas Sirk unit—it bored the shit out of me. I also once got busted for loudly crinkling a bag of Jujubes during a classroom screening of Vivre Sa Vie. I don't deserve to be here. We've established that. But I'm here. Five million 12-year-olds think I'm Buck Henry. Accept it.

(Incidentally, if you were me for one day you'd crumble like fucking Stilton. I am better at this than you. You're not strong enough, Film_Fan78. Trust me.)

She actually 1) reads the comments in IMDB forums, and 2) reponds to them publicly!

Also notice that at the end of all that spleen-venting, there is a little box which says: "Currently listening: Jonas Brothers: Bonus Jonas Edition"

That is rare, children. That is blue-rare.

No braggin' there, I see.

A friend of mine had me convinced for about 5 minutes that the Jonas Brothers were trying to break away from their kiddie demographic and had a new album called "Bust A Nut". Then I realized he was lying to me.

That is all I have to say on the subject.

Thanks, Pat, you just gave me an idea for a new tattoo!

I just learned that Diablo Cody was a DJ at KRUI, the college radio station at the University of Iowa, in the vicinity of my hometown. It's a decent station, and this probably means that she's not beelzebub incarnate as her detractors suggest (and as her nom de plume would also suggest). Now, carry on...

Listen: I've been telling stories my whole life. Even when I was a phone sex operator, I was the Mark Twain of extemporaneous jerk-off fiction. I took every perspiring creep on a fucking journey. I don't know how to do anything else.

I bet Mark Twain's ghost is currently weeping for what its soul has seen.

I look forward to the day she receives her Mark Twain prize for humor at the AVNs.

Nah, I think Twain would have been into it. He was no stuffed shirt.

[Amplituden]

That Freedom Dogs blog is terrifying!

apparently, in the UK we don't get all the c.o.d.y. hate.

True, but I think he'd prefer a different mouthpiece.
