RUTHFUL!

picture it kittens...fer 5 years between 1968 thru 1973...comedic genius
RUTH BUZZI played many comical characters on ROHAN and MARTIN'S hit comedy series "LAUGH-IN" but will ferever be famously remembered by most as the dowdy pouty spinster GLADYS ORMPHBY

by 1989...though we never got to actually get a sneeky peek of what Miss
RUTH ROBELINE actually looked like...it's didn't stop DOLLY PARTON's character TRUVY from try’n and pry'n the latest gossip about one Miss Robeline outta small town divorcee DARRYL HANNAH's character ANNELLE who may or may not have been married to someone who might have been a dangerous criminal in thee most memorably quoted tear jerker of the decade "STEEL MAGNOLIAS"

in the year 2003...everyone's fav-o-rit method actor TOM WILKINSON...
played dual roles as small town blue collar bible beat'n truck drive'n factory worker Roy Applewood in the critically acclaimed HBO movie "NORMAL" who'd been hide'n a secret from his family and congregation fer years until a fickle lil faint spell at his 25th wedd'n anniversary to his lovely wife Irma Applewood...played by the incomparably impeccably talented JESSICA LANGE... 
which lead Roy to finally admitted to himself and to everyone around him that he was born in the wrong body and like a cocooned caterpillar...slowly transitioned and transformed into the boisterous butterfly RUTH APPLEWOOD...turn’n the tables on her family fer the toughest love and acceptance...completely confuse'n her colostomically bitter father who was left shitt'n in his shorts by movies end wonder'n whatever happened to the son he thought he had...just a lil FYI without give’n you TMI...keep a box of kleenex near by (you have been warned)

and how could you not fall in love with 2017's potty mouthed trailer parker
RUTH LANGMORE portrayed by american actress JULIA GARNER on the hit NETFLIX dark drama series "OZARK" about a fucked up family and the mexican cartel...why not!
who was recently tossed around by the QUEEN herself to portray her magesty in her yet unfinished untitled bio flick about her extrodinary astronomical life and i fer one think it's a puuurfucktional fit!

the planet of course mourns thee most famous bad ass SUPREME RUTH
of them all...as we had to say goodbye to the biggest  rockstar and greatest equalizer of the US SUPREME COURT...everyone's fav-o-rit tough as nails sweetheart...RUTH BADER GINSBURG...after she had succombed unfortunately to her bout with pancreatic cancer on fri sept 18th

there's so much i could say about this extraordinary woman...that i don't
have the slightest clue where i would even begin...but fer those unaware of her upbring'n and background...best turn on the stove...heat up a container of yer fav-o-rit jambalaya flavored jiffy pop and kick back to learn a lil herstory about thee most tenaciously influential and revered cultural icon of the US Superme Court in the spectacular biographical "RBG"
who's last die'n wish was to NOT vote on her replacement until BIDEN gets elected and that mentally deranged IMPEACHED FOR LIFE corrupt lie’n sociopathetik sack of orange anal warts is sipp'n sangria from his colostomy bag behind bars

so lets honor this honorable lady and cause the BIGGEST blue wave 
that this country has ever bare witness to this novem and remember...PUHLEEZ...
 GET OFF MY DRESS!

tears and my pillow

there are many many many things in this crazy Cher-fer-sake'n world that can make all of us break down and weep like a baby from time to time!

i luv me some Katy...i do...the lion entrance was amaze'n...but that flame outfit really?...what...was HOT TOPIC have'n a close-out sale on their halloween costumes?...and though there was definitely some MADONNA moments on the chess board...i was bored after that...seriously...i was wait'n fer the Kool-Aid man to pop out from behind the palm trees...but thanx to MISSY ELLIOT fer save'n the show

chopp'n up one of these suckers fer yer salad will do the trick

knock'n over a glass of moo juice might turn some into a whine ass...
but apparently it originated as an offer'n to the faeries in the folklore period and this was considered to be good luck for those who did it
(but put that in yer useless information bank and smoke it)

try'n to save a couple of bucks...instead of call'n a real professional...
only to have it go awry...will make yer eye ducts start to well up and make you think twice about watch'n another damn TLC remodel'n program

or a misunderstand'n that goes askew...while hold'n a pick axe in yer hand...
may make a Maury Povich audience member let out a sigh of empathy for you...but yer still gonna probably get 5-10 in the big boy pen when it's over

i was fumblin' thru my dvd collection last weekend after a difficult day with my conscious tell'n me what to do...after o.d.'n on a 6 pack of red bull...
try'n to find somethin' to get the ol' R.E.M's to kick in...no...not these guys silly kitten

these guys...zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...
i cannot confirm or deny that this is or is not me catch'n 40 winks
(hadda throw somethin' in there...thought i was loose'n ya fer a minute)

i knew i needed somethin' with an extreme moment to get the water works happen'n..whether good or bad...in order to calm those night time nerves
and since i'm not 20 anymore...
unless i'm under the right light'n...
"patty cake'n the bacon" don't work like it used to!

even though i've seen these flicks like 100 million times over...they get to me each and every time durin' those pivitol moments...so i've compiled my top 10 list of bawl'n busters fer my narcaleptic naps

10. Lisa Lampanelli: take it like a man

she's the self proclaimed "Queen of Mean"...almost killed me the first time i seen her at my sister's house in the wee hours of the morn'n a few years back...all bets are off with EVERYONE here...and no one goes unscathed from her seethin' mouth and razor sharp tongue...one of my fav-o-rit lines from LL "i've had more black dick in me than the urinals at the Apollo"...i dare you not to bust open the flood gates watch'n this show

9.Thelma and Louise

2 women...a thunderbird...and a hitch hiker...breakdown moment #1 happens fairly soon in the beginn'n but just sorta fills up the buckets...then yer calmed down fer a bit before the climactic end'n when ya use'n yer wrists as wind shield wipers

8. Little Miss Sunshine

one of the very few family movies i can relate to...and believe...well cuz it's so dysfunctional...a black dramedy about broken dreams and coming together as one...the movie is brilliant thru-out and not one dull moment to be had...but the end'n scene with the little sister kills me everytime

7. Silkwood

2 words...Meryl Streep...enough said!...no wait...there's more...throw in a non heterosexual Cher and a shirtless Kurt and it won't be long before you're reach'n fer the kleenix...a true story about Karen Silkwood who worked at a plutonium plant and started investigate'n the shinanigans that occured there...only to be investigated herself...Meryl's peril (sorry kittens...had to...it rhymed) is played out thru her amaze'n rendition of "amazing grace"...i always feel like i'm ride'n in slow motion thru the Pont de l'Alma tunnel in Paris with Diana and Doty

6. Brokeback Mountain

2 guys...some horses...a lotta sheep...and a mountain...sounds like one of those illegal porn flicks you'd watch with yer high school buddies when yer parents weren't home...i know...BUTT...(and that is the opperative word) you can't escape their gravitational pull

5. NORMAL

hello!...Jessica Lange...what can't this woman do?...also starr'n Tom Wilkinson as her husband of 25 years...and that HERO's chick Hayden Panettiere as their teenage daughter...with possible non heterosexual tendencies and their son what's-his-name (really...what is it?...i never heard of him before..and i'm too uninterested to google him) anywho...this is a story about love...marriage...family...sex...change...the tear jerker moments are thru-out...but Jessica's break down in the basement should've gotten her an oscar nomination

4. Steel Magnolias

buckle yerself in to the emotional roller coaster cuz this all star cast will make yer eyes feel like the hoover dam...and ready to burst at the seams from the moment you press play...til the credits roll...i swear this
writer was born to make you weep..."i'm fine!...i can jog all the way to Texas and back...but my daughter can't!...she never could!...oh G*d!...i am so mad i don't know what to do!...i wanna know why!...i wanna know why Shelby's life is over!...i wanna know how that baby will ever know how wonderful his mother was!...will he ever know what she went through for him!...oh G*d i wanna know why?...Why?...lord i wish i could understand!"

3. Torch Song Trilogy

starr'n Harvey Fierstien...Anne Bancroft and my high school secret crush Matthew Broderick...about perform'n illusionist Bertha Venation...his lovers...their son and his jewish mother's disapproval..."whoops?...Ed did you say "whoops"?...no Ed "whoops" is when you fall down an elevator shaft..."whoops" is when you skinny-dip in a school of piranha..."whoops"
is when you accidentally douche with drano!...no Ed...this was no "whoops" this was an AAAAAAAAAAAAA!"...i'm already gett'n farklempt and i haven't even pressed play

2. Terms of Endearment

Shirley McClaine...Debra Winger..."it's past ten...my daughter is in pain...i don't understand why she has to have this pain...all she has to do is hold out until ten...and IT'S PAST TEN!...my daughter is in pain... can't you understand that!...GIVE MY DAUGHTER THE SHOT!"...enough said

1.ONCE

though i rarely ever use this word to describe anything...this is thee most BEAUTIFULLY done romantic musical i have ever seen in my life...about a guy...a girl...a vaccuum...a piano...a guitar...and find'n out what it is you really want in life...the simplicity in itself is enough to make you break down and weep...the musical arrangements are perfection and tug at every little vein that leads straight to yer heart 
 (that is IF you have one at all)

so there ya have it kittens!
keep yer nyquil...choke on yer ambien...this is my preferred medication to dreamland...try it next time yer toss'n in yer sleep...if that don't work...go see a doctor...

and get off my dress!
