Helpful commenter Cyn suggested I check out Grooveshark as a playlist-building alternative, and I’ve started dabbling over there for future posts. Alas, the learning curve was too steep for me to master in the three or four free minutes I’ve had to devote to it, so this week we are sticking with playlist.com one more […]
Yesterday, a post appeared on the Huge Facebook page promoting a fat-camp scholarship in Nikki Blonsky’s name. Within minutes, my inbox was collapsing quantum-singularity-style under the mass of so many aghast messages letting me know about it. I haven’t said it recently, and can never say it enough, but oh, my vigilant little pudgemuffins, you […]
Huge, Episode 7: “I could yank the life support on her illusion of allure.â€
By Lesley | August 10, 2010
Angst-O-Meter (1-5): 4.5 Previously: We QUESTED. Will and Amber got lost. Will waged a battle with evil dumpster-donut kobolds and emerged victorious. George waged a battle with his inappropriate attraction to Amber and did lose that fight thoroughly. And in the center of it all stood the gravitational axis and emotional center of all this […]
Tonight’s episode of Huge will feature a scene related to Seventeen Magazine’s “Body Peace Projectâ€, an effort launched in 2007 in collaboration with self-esteem guru Jess Weiner. The main thrust of the project seems to be the Body Peace Treaty, which can be read and electronically signed on Seventeen’s website. Signers of the treaty pledge […]
I don’t often post outfits during the summer because, frankly, my summer wardrobe is kind of boring. It’s a dress and a pair of shoes. Voilà ! That’s pretty much how it goes every day. I took a picture on Friday afternoon anyway. Because it’s been awhile. What you’re seeing above is a Calvin Klein dress […]
So I used to do these occasional musical interludes, and in comments to one of the Huge recaps, someone recently suggested I should also have a music blog. I would love this, but blogging being the high-paying and glamorous lifestyle that it is, I have little time to devote to a second blog (if the […]
In between episodes, the journal entries of some of our campers appear, as if by magic, on the official Huge website. I’ve heard from a few commenters recently that these entries are written by Miz Dooley herself, and if that’s true, I suppose we can consider them canonical, if we have yet reached […]
Update: Lane Bryant has apologized. So! Earlier today, it seems someone at the Lane Bryant Marketing Gulag fell asleep at the switch. Maybe they were hungover following a raucous night of obnoxious-print-draped debauchery. Maybe they were delirious from the smell of the chemicals out of which their clothing is made. Whatever the reason, someone thought […]
So I’ve been alive for thirty-three years now. When I reached plain old thirty, I was told by a great many folks that my thirties would be awesome, because their thirties were awesome, or were in the process of being awesome. I believe them. But my thirties — the three years by which I have […]
Way back in the first episode, Ian and Will first bonded, as it were, over a shared appreciation for the Pixies. Somewhere, in one of the many interviews I’ve read (the best yet being this piece in The Advocate), producer Savannah Dooley comments that while the Pixies are as good a band to bond over […]
