    Dear Martha Stewart,

    I love and adore you. Will you adopt me so I can one day only bake with eggs I gathered with my own hands? Please?

    Love, KKC

    P.S. I already hand address all of my Christmas cards (on Crane naturally) and make hospital corners with my bedsheets.

    Cynthia McFadden, you mean, mean girl! (And I'm kind of proud of Rachel Ray for not rising to the bait here, too! ha)

    @Vivien Smith-Smythe-Smith: I have never liked Rachel Ray's persona on her show 30 Minute Meals. (See my comments on Jezebel's first post that mentioned this Martha / RR exchange as an example.) But I am really impressed with the way she handled that, too. I wish I'd watched that before my earlier comments.

    @RenoDakota: We don't get Rachel Ray in NZ (at least, I don't think we do), but I always admire someone who can avoid rising to the bait, as she managed exceptionally well to, here

    Listen Insider, I'm more surprised when Spencer Pratt: 1. Spells things correctly, and 2. Says decent, sensible things. Let me know when those things happen, OK?

    On second thought, just don't.

    I had to click on the underwear clip, out of terror that it was another Palin clip.

    In the Martha Stewart clip they showed a bookstore shelf and "Going Rogue" was next to a George Carlin book. I am sputtering 7 dirty words in protest.

    Oh my god Martha. Just when I thought I couldn't love you anymore you go ahead and call Sarah Palin out. You + Me + Eternity.

    Oh, and Ms. Nightline lady. Just stop. Move on. No controversy to see here, folks.

    Sincerely,

    I actually saw #6 when it was on the other night, and I think "But I'm still gonna keep you number one on my MySpace" has to be one of the all-time most hilarious lines to include in a break-up.

    Question: Did the drunk men have to all be shirtless? Is this now a MTV requirement?

    Also, It's Always Sunny was kick-ass last night as was the Christmas special .

    Can't wait to watch last night's episode of Always Sunny. The rest of this stuff? It's probably okay that I missed it.

    @Understater: Makes perfect sense - Martha is a perfectionist who knows that popularity doesn't always equal merit - and Rachel Ray is showing that even though she's good at what she does, she's not the master. What it boils down to is: Palin lacks Martha's eye for detail and fastidious nature, and Ray's honesty and humility.

    One time my boyfriend invited me over to his place. It turned out what he did--which may not have been what he intended--was play a computer game for nine hours while I watched. Eventually I just started reading a book.

    This has a happy ending though... I told him I wasn't happy with how the day had gone and that I wouldn't be coming over to watch that again. If he wanted to play something together, great, if he wanted to play something solo without me, that's fine too, but not this.

    He agreed it was dumb and never did it again. :) #truelifeicantleavemyboyfriend

    @redqueenmeg: It's nice that he agreed with you but it's a shame you even needed to go there. I wouldn't invite a friend or an acquaintance or a cousin over just to ignore them. Basic manners, people. #truelifeicantleavemyboyfriend

    @melissa grey: True, true, and I think part of it was a function of age which was why I was willing to excuse it one time especially since he never did it again. He was 19. It would have been a lot less funny at 29 or 39.
