LOVE: Lisa Nowak. Seriously. Women the world over owe her a thank you for making anything anyone else with the XX chromosome has ever done somehow...less crazy.
LOVE: How much better "astronaut" looks than "deranged woman" (or even just "woman") in a headline. I love you, Lisa. Diaper and all.
HATERADE: Reginald Hudlin. Seriously. My admittedly strange, Bork-trial inspired crush on Joe Biden aside, I don't know that BET's president of entertainment gets to weigh in on Biden's "articulate" comment, considering Hudlin himself plays a significant role (and earns a significant salary) pimping out the stereotype on cable television every day.
LOVE: The third season of Beverly Hills 90210, the first season of The O.C. and acting out music videos on roller skates.
HATERADE: The Brenda-Dylan-Kelly love triangle which was the beginning of the end of the show. And the fact that I loved it so much I didn't miss an episode for a full 7 seasons after that.
LOVE: Christmas parties
HATERADE: Five in one night
LOVE: People who own who they are with no excuses
HATERADE: The pressure of putting together a good Halloween costume
LOVE: Boys Men who, when given multiple options for methods of contact, still choose the telephone
HATERADE: When the right decision is not easy to make
