Blogger Roll Call: Pop Culture

I really love reading about pop culture and celebrity goings-ons... I know it's kind of stupid but the topic just makes for some seriously funny blogs. Here are a few of my favorite:

Go Fug Yourself
These two girls mercilessly and hilariously go after the fashion faux-pas of the world's red-carpet-walkers. They have a few pet peeves - leggings as pants, formal shorts, incorrectly hemmed trousers - but can find something to "fug" in just about any outfit. And their ingenious tirades have seriously inspired my own comedic writing.

Stuff White People Like
Before you get your panties in a twist over the title of this blog, please remember it is meant to be satire. The author, Christian, has a razor-sharp wit and keeps coming up with culturally relevant things that white people really seem to love. Maybe the next item on his list should be "White People Love the blog 'Stuff White People Like'."

Best Week Ever
You may be familiar with the similarly-titled tv show on VH1. This is the blog version, and it is magnificent. A pop-culture lover's dream, resplendent with multiple postings a day on internet oddities, musings on music, movies, and tv, and a healthy dose of celebrity mockery. Each of the three editors has their own style - I'm partial to Sara's willingness to post awful pictures of herself and Michelle's made-up-on-the-fly slang and word shortening.
