The Facts Of Life

Michael Shinafelt

Hello and Happy Monday Minions! This was me yesterday have a quesadilla and a large Margarita rocks, no salt at Home State on Hollywood Blvd. It's my favorite morning thing to do after all.

Aside from enjoying what a beautiful day it was I remember when I was in yoga at Hollywood Forever Cemetery and the objective of the class  was to know that even though life is good there are always bad things to counteract that and to accept those as well.

Well that is something that has been the best part of being in my 50's is that I do see things that way and thus it does make navigating life much easier. Just a little wisdom from me to you heading into the week.

You take the good you take the bad and deal with it...The Facts Of Life!

As Buddha would say: "Peace comes from within"

Namaste

The Look

Evil Dead Rise

It's just another Manic Monday and here's a question for you: Can I come to your place and stare at you like this when you sleep?

What say you? Answer me or I'll do it anyway. Remember a non-answer means "Yes."

I'm gnashing my teeth in anticipation right now to do this.

May visions of me with this look inhabit your dreams tonight, oh and try to enjoy your week...if you dare!!!

Happy Monday Minions!

Release The...

Heeeeyyyyy it's Monday again. Everyone's fave day of the week...NOT!

Remember how you knew that day would come at some point when you release all the F#cks? You were going to save it for a special occassion, but why???

Why not make someday today and let the F#cks fly free from the corners of your mind and consciousness.

Me? I released mine a long time ago with no fanfare and damn it's been the best thing ever!!!

Enjoy your Monday and free your F#cks!

Hello Monday...

Ghostface

Happy Monday! Ha ha ha ha!!! Since Halloween draws nigh I thought we would start our week with a very important question that's correct Minions "What's your favorite scary movie?" 

It also happens to be the signature line of Ghostface straight outta one of the most successful horror franchises ever, the Scream movies.

Today think of me as your own personal Ghostface. If you don't answer correctly you will have a terrible week.

Here are the three questions you must answer or, well your week is going to suck! 

1) Name the horror movie that featured the Bauhaus song Bela Lugosi's Dead 

2) Whose baby has his "father's eyes"

3) Name the sister Michael Myers kills in the opening of the original 1978 Halloween

Don't take too long to answer, additional penalties may apply....

Stupid Witch

Upon seeing this meme I cackled like a witch. It also reminded me of what a heaping pile of sh!t The Blair Witch Project actually is.

If any of you reading this love or even remotely like this, whatever the eff it is, please feel free to take your low IQ elsewhere.

Hey it's Monday and I'm slightly cranky and am entitled to a bit of a rant.

Call me self indulgent and move on!!!

Smile It's Monday, Or Not

Pee Wee Herman

Smile, it's Monday - or perhaps NOT!!! I'm feeling loopy and for some reason known exclusively to the corners of my mind. Pee Wee Herman's secret word of the day materialized in my head. Ya know straight outta Pee Wee's Playhouse?! Of course you do!

While "Moist" was never the secret word on his actual show, it's the word I'm using today via this meme because it elicits a strong negative or positive reaction.

"Yes" Minions my goal is to make you smile or not today because I feel like pushing buttons. I'm provocative that way.

Thus enjoy your Monday and my contribution to your mirth or discomfort. The choice is yours.

Courtside Cuties

Having A Ball
Cara Delevingne & Selena Gomez

Another Monday, another week to enjoy! Yeah, I know we are all supposed to bag on Monday, yet I am feeling particularly bouncy myself today, so there!!!

For the rest of you singing the Monday Blues well here's Cara Delevingne & Selena Gomez courtside for the New York Knicks v Orlando Magic game at Madison Square Garden.

Since they look adorbs together this should help you Monday naysayers mood a little. Perhaps a lot depending on just how much you don't like Monday's.

It's time Minions to brush yourself off and adult...!!!

Send in the Clowns

Clowning Around
David Arquette

Here we are another week, another Monday. Thus I thought to myself "Self let's send in the clowns!"

The clowns are brought to you by one David Arquette sporting, what else? A clown sweater, naturally...

While I know there are those of you who might be afraid of clowns, and those of you who do not think they are funny, they are still colorful and lighten the mood nonetheless.  

If that doesn't do it for you, there is also Mr. Arquette who I saw play Dr. Frank-N-Furter in a production of The Rocky Horror Picture Show in Los Angeles. "Yes" he was SAF in the role and he is the same IRL.

Yeah, there's that, now tell me why you don' like Mondays - Hmmmmmm?!?!

Monday Motivation

If You're Happy & You Know It...
Matt Bomer

Wow! Just Wow! There is so much turmoil going on in the world I am, well, needing an oasis to escape to. Is there actually one available where my positive energy won't take a licking? Most likely not.

Thus my Monday  Motivation is finding things that make me happy today. Like this photo of Matt Bomer wearing next to nothing on the beach meditating. This is how I am starting off my Monday and now because of me, so are you.

As I navigate the journey that is today I am going to focus on everything that there is to be happy about, and pay it forward with good vibes only.

Seeing this image of delicious Matt looking oh so tranquil on a peaceful stretch of sand is a great kick off point.

It's giving me what I need right here, right now. Then when I move on with my day it will be time to find some other Monday Motivation to bring back the happy. I am up for the challenge, you???

Who's the Happy Monkey? Why you are, duh!

Monday Motivation

Sex on the Beach
Christian Bale

Here's something to give you a little pep in your step, some Monday Motivation if you will. Why it's Christian Bale looking completely edible body boarding in Malibu.

"Yes" this is just what I need to jump start my Monday (other than the tea I am currently drinking) - nothing like Christian Bale in and out of clothes. Heck he even made a rubber bat suit sexy.

Doesn't he look especially yummy in wet clingy clothes? I ask you? I'm asking you, answer me and answer me now! OK, be that way.

What's that you say? Christian isn't your thing? Well that's completely fine, it's OK if you have no taste, but here's a mission to motivate on this Monday then. Go out and find your own Man Candy to inspire you.

Yep, if this photo doesn't do it for you, well that's my response and I'm sticking to it. 

Enjoy your week and get motivated!

The Masked Couple

Who's This Couple???

One of the great things about having to wear a mask is that it makes one harder to recognize. Especially if you happen to be famous. So let's kick off the week with a guessing game, that's correct Minions it's time to play The Masked Couple where you guess, with a clue who are the celebrities under those face coverings.

Here are the clues, he comes in handy when you need something rapped, she is such a liar. Any idea who these two are yet? One last clue they are both creeps. 

Alright if you guessed G-Eazy & Ashley Benson you guessed right! He being a rapper, she having starred in Pretty Little Liars and they collaborated on a cover of Creep by Radiohead. See that's how those clues fit together 😉

So let's get this Monday started and don't forget to wear your mask for yourself and others!

I Love A Parade!

Today's Your Birthday?
Bella Thorne & Ruby Rose

Even though there will be no Gay Pride Parades come June there will be plenty of  other parades in the form of drive by Birthday Celebrations. 

"Yes" It's the pandemic thing to do, keep your Social Distance and such. Check out Bella Thorne and Ruby Rose partaking in a drive by celebration.

For who I do not know, they are keeping it on the DL, down low in the age of Covid 19. Someone needs to write a novel with that title and subject matter, Hmmmmmm...

Anyway if you happen to have a Birthday today, be like Bella and Ruby keep it real, and DL.

It's Monday, correct???

Sign O' The Times

I just want your extra time and your, Kiss

Selma Blair & Ron Carlson

Hello Minions, in case you are wondering it's Monday. This photo of Selma Blair and her guy Ron Carlson sharing a kiss while waiting for coffee in Studio City, CA perfectly captures a moment in time during this point of history of the world.

I mean come on, nothing says pandemic more then a masked kiss in public between two love birds. Except for perhaps the bird that is attacking people in my neighborhood. Yeah there's a bird who obviously is aggressive about defending it's nest even though it's up in a tree and the sidewalk is three feet away from it, when people walk by the bird starts making loud nasty noises and then comes at you. It pecked me and one of my neighbors (and more I'm sure I don't know about) in the back. So there's that going on too.

Too bad it was too frantic for me to catch a photo of, so now I walk on the opposite side of the street from the side my apartment building is actually on. Meh.

Enjoy your Monday, "Yes" it's Monday, really I promise 😎

Monday Motivation

I'm Bad!
Cameron Diaz

Anyone catch the movie Bad Teacher starring Cameron Diaz? Bueller? I did with my then BF and found it quite amusing. It popped into my writing mind this ayem and is what inspired today's Monday Motivation.

While I toil away the hours memorizing for a test. "Yes" that's correct minions yours truly is storing info in his computer brain via text. Thus it made me think about teachers and such. The good ones, not the bad ones, but whilst ruminating on the good ones Bad Teacher popped into my consciousness. Because it was funny, Cameron Diaz was great in it & even the lamest of teachers can teach you a lesson. They make the good ones stand out.

Being as that our public education system is under fire I would like to give a hat tip and a high five to all those teachers who care. I had a few of them and they really shaped certain aspects of who I am today. I can only hope kids now have the same kind of caring individuals I did to help guide them.

Oh "Yes" I had a a couple of teachers I would have liked to wish into the corn field, and some that did their job but were not particularly inspiring. But you take the good you take the average and try to laugh at the bad, copy?

Anyway it's the good teachers that are giving me life and Monday Motivation today. Thanks for the kick in the ass to keep on keeping, and werk!

Monday Motivation

Rock On With Your Bad Sweater!
Ozzy Osbourne 

With a scant 9 days until Christmas I thought I would motivate you with the gift of laughter. "Yes" today's Monday Motivation arrives in the form of Ozzy Osbourne wearing an ugly Gremlins inspired Christmas Sweater.

Seriously are there truly any good looking Christmas Sweaters? Aren't they all by law ugly AF?

But this particular one really stood out when I spied it. It made me recoil, repulsed, had my head spinning round 360 degrees, yet at the root of all that tomfoolery was laughter.

Yeah, I am giver, and so is Ozzy apparently, or is it unwittingly? 

Honestly I don't know how anyone celebrity or otherwise thinks the Christmas Sweaters they wear are not an assault on the senses of common decency.

Now get motivated, it's Monday after all!!!
