Smart Talk About Love

So somehow I just ended up on a site called Your Tango (what?) because I followed a link to a story about how Jaleel White (Urkel) is being accused of beating his baby mama.  Obviously.  Don't judge me.  I was getting depressed reading about how the Senate blocked the repeal of the Don't Ask, Don't Tell policy in the military (Absolutely disgusting, US government. Yes please risk your life for us, gay soldier, but shh-don't feel free to be who you are out in the open. Gross.) and how an 11 year old is being accused of murdering a 2 year old (I want to crawl into a dark hole reading things like this) so I needed to read some Urkel ridiculousness. 

But seriously wtf is Your Tango?  My post title is their tagline.  And it totally seems like smart talk about love all over that site.  Here are some examples of the articles I saw when I got there:

Dating Disaster: A Guy, A Girl, Her Gas

Sober Dating: How to Date Without Drinking [ed. note: Is this a joke?]

Why I Flirt With Everyone-Including Your Man

How to Fall In Love With Mr. Good Enough

Dating Disaster: I Kissed My Cousin [ed. note:  Fucking ew.]

What Do Men Think About Hair Weaves?

Inside the National Cougar Convention [ed. note: There's a convention??  That. Is. Fantastic.  My favorite quote from the article is from one of the college guys who went to the convention because he was bored.  A lady he was dancing with turned to him and said:  "It's okay, let Mama Cougar do all the talking."]  [ed. note on my ed. note: I am frighteningly close to being a woman who attends this convention and says things like "Does this stimulate you?"-another actual cougar quote.]

Revealed:  The Love Lives of Real-Life Vampires

Skip the Soulmate, Find a Trophy Husband

So obviously I bookmarked this site. 

Hey, we will have a post dedicated to new TV after this week, but did anyone watch "Hawaii 5-0"?  A few comments on this show:

1.  It was awesome.
2.  Aside from Friday Night Lights, it might have the hottest male cast on TV.
3.  Jin!
4.  Who the hell is Alex O'Loughlin, and where has he been all my life!?  He is insanely gorgeous.
5.  Seriously.  Three main guys in the cast, all hot.  Ladies, let's do this.

Actually Alex O'Laughlin was in that movie with Jennifer Lopez "The Backup Plan."

What makes him even hotter is that in real life he has an Australian accent. Yummm. . .

I really liked Hawaii 5-0!

And let me know when you attend the Cougar Convention--I'll gladly join! :)

As soon as you mentioned your tango, I immediately had to look it up. You're in with the awesome. The site is delightfully ridiculous and it has gone in my bookmarks too. There's just something so wrongly right about a site that lists articles about plastic surgery, marriage and masturbation on the homepage. I can't quit it. I want to, but I can't.

Also, if you like Alex O'Loughlin, it's definitely worth looking up an episode of Criminal Minds called The Big Wheel. (Let's ignore the sexual innuendo that could go there.) I wouldn't say he was lovable in that part, but his acting was phenomenal.

Please for the love of all that is holy go rent Moonlight and then die from all the hottness of Alex. /sigh.

He is a hot vampire named Mick. Also features the very hot Jason Doering (Logan Echolls from Veronica Mars).

Go. Now. GO!

Ooh, and I have a thing for Scott Caan so Hawaii 5-0 was definitely awesome viewing for me.
