Writers Choire Sicha and Alex Balk Launch Much-Awaited Web Venture
CHRISTAL: Okay, so.
SichaCommaChoire: Yeesss?
SichaCommaChoire: (I'm already laughing.)
CHRISTAL: What should I write about your website, which I already like?
SichaCommaChoire: Local Morons Work For Free?
CHRISTAL: Well, it's not for free.
CHRISTAL: I see an ad for a thing I didn't know was a product.
CHRISTAL: (Caffeine in a Butterfinger? It was a surprise.)
SichaCommaChoire: Actually, it's more like…
SichaCommaChoire: Local Morons Spend Money To Work
CHRISTAL: Do you have a business person?
SichaCommaChoire: David Cho is our business dude.
SichaCommaChoire: Late of College Humor and then of Radar.
CHRISTAL: I am so pleased. So is it all about media?
SichaCommaChoire: Oh, gosh, no. It's solely guided by what we're interested in.
SichaCommaChoire: Like, for instance, I just put up a picture of Saturn! Because, yum, Saturn!
CHRISTAL: Hahaha. You can find a bunghole in everything.
CHRISTAL: This is so exciting/overdue. It's like the eighth Octomom baby.
CHRISTAL: Or the bonus Jonas.
SichaCommaChoire: Well, we just want to have a good time.
SichaCommaChoire: (and drink some cherry wine)
CHRISTAL: WHAT IS CHERRY WINE??
SichaCommaChoire: Because you know there's not enough websites!
CHRISTAL: Can I tell you? My boyfriend is moving in with me and we drove to New Jersey yesterday to drop off stuff. And that song came on twice!
SichaCommaChoire: Hot!
CHRISTAL: And he loves that.
CHRISTAL: And both times I was like, "WHAT IS CHERRY WINE?"
SichaCommaChoire: Now I love your boyfriend!
CHRISTAL:: Wait. so how do you think you and Balk are going to work together? Aren't you too similar? Except for the loving cock thing?
SichaCommaChoire: : Too similar??? He and i are nothing alike!
SichaCommaChoire: Except we are both passive-aggressive.
SichaCommaChoire: So it's REALLY QUIET IN HERE.
CHRISTAL:: Wait, you're like in the same room?
SichaCommaChoire: YES!
CHRISTAL: You have an office?
SichaCommaChoire: Um, let's call it that charitably, yess!
CHRISTAL: You know, the guy who sang that song involving the cherry wine lyric
CHRISTAL: Died of AIDS
CHRISTAL: And the whole song was about not having to take your clothes off to have a "good time."
CHRISTAL: (Where the "cherry wine" rhyme came into it.)
SichaCommaChoire: Dare I say the word "ironic"?
