The Upside of the Strike



Fetishizing the strike beard.

I’m sorry for your troubles. I really, really am. But strike beards are sexy. Even the New Yorker says so. And you saw those paparazzi shots of Conan O’Brien, walking around town like a high-fashion lumberjack, right? If a strike beard can do that for Conan, just imagine what it could do for a piece of ass like JJ Abrams. I know it’s wrong, but strike beards kind of make me hope that the AMPTP finds a way to drag this thing out a little bit longer. I mean, not indefinitely––give me, like, a week to get the unshaven screenwriter fantasies out of my system, and then you can go back to the bargaining table. Okay? New episodes of 30 Rock for Valentine’s Day, perhaps?

Love,

Karina

    For me, the strike beards add new depth to the age-old question: Who would win in a fight, Conan or Letterman?

    I picture the battle taking place on the precipice of an icy cliff.

    Hmmmm, I’m not too big on beards, but am disturbed by the fact that he passes a mild resemblance to James Cameron in the shot above- which does the opposite of floating my boat.

    But I’ll back a hold off on an end to the writers strike for the (unlikely) possibility of a UK penned CSI: Droitwich (http://tinyurl.com/3b7c6m)
