I’m not saying I want carpet on the ceiling… OK, that’s exactly what I’m saying. Shag carpeted ceilings. Tight. Like Elvis.

Sometimes you have to admit your dorkiness to the world:

It may not look it, but this Today Show salad by Sarah Moulton is more than just a handful of ingredients thrown together. The dressing goes perfectly with the chicken, corn, and tomato. If you like green onions and avocado, go ahead and add them. Seriously, though, I plan on eating this salad once or twice a week until October.

Gamespot has gone downhill since the mass exodus of its editors; luckily, Jeff Gerstmann and a few of the other scoobies started their own site, Giant Bomb. It already has a better community than Gamespot, and the blog is worth adding to your RSS Reader.

Today I’m going to start actively pursuing some of the health goals on my 101 Things list. I’ll be counting calories for 30 days, eliminating soda from my diet for six full months, and eliminating fried foods from my diet for six full months.

• No worries, you’re not rude.
• Hey, I’m feeling you, too!

If I owned a Burger King Gold Card, I’d weight six hundred pounds.

(not really — I’m with Robert Downey Jr., Burger King kind of grosses me out)

If you’re not reading Season 8 of Buffy in comic form, you should be. You’ll gain even more respect for Faith and Giles and you’ll want to hug your old pal Joss Whedon.

Whedon talks about the next couple of issues in this interview with MTV (full of spoilers!).

Can’t you picture Wall-E taking care of these plants?
