I’m getting so nostalgic!

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler’s hush-hush afterparty at Soho House got rolling around 10:30 and went until late. Aziz Ansari, Jon Hamm, Michelle Dockery, Seth Meyers, Kristen Wiig, Louis C.K. and more turned it into a dance party. Whitney Houston’s “I Want to Dance with Somebody” went over as well as Fey and Poehler’s monologue hours earlier.
1: This is absolute proof that heaven is a place on earth.
2. I hope those goblets were full of pie.
Can they just splice into the Oscars their intro and other gags, editing out Seth MacFarlene? I’d really appreciate that.

TINA:"The Hunger Games" was one of the biggest films of the year -- and also what I call the six weeks it took me to get into this dress.
AMY:Ang Lee's nominated for "The Life Of Pi," which is what I'm gonna call the six weeks after I take this dress off!
Probs my favorite joke, especially Jessica Chastain’s “Oh no they didn’t!!!!” reaction. And we’re all agree that Fey/Poehler killed it, totally fulfilled all our hopes and dreams, and need to host every awards show from now until the end of time, right?

Relevant in so many situations. Well, relevant in every situation where I throw a party and declare it mandatory.
“Dear Internet” by Tina Fey
From PerezHilton.com/Posted by jerkstore on Wednesday, 1/21/2009, 11:21 P.M.
“In my opinion Tina Fey completely ruined SNL. The only reason she’s celebrated is because she’s a woman and an outspoken liberal. She has not a single funny bone in her body.”
“Dear jerkstore,
Huzzah for the Truth Teller! Women in this country have been over-celebrated for too long. Just last night there was a story on my local news about a “missing girl,” and they must have dedicated seven or eight minutes to “where she was last seen” and “how she might have been abducted by a close family friend,” and I thought, “What is this, the News for Chicks?” Then there was some story about Hillary Clinton flying to some country because she’s secretary of state. Why do we keep talking about these dumdums? We are a society that constantly celebrates no one but women and it must stop! I want to hear what the men of the world have been up to. What fun new guns have they invented? What are they raping these days? What’s Michael Bay’s next film going to be?
When I first set out to ruin SNL, I didn’t think anyone would notice, but I persevered because—like you trying to do a nine-piece jigsaw puzzle—it was a labor of love.
I’m not one to toot my own horn, but I feel safe with you, jerkstore, so I’ll say it. Everything you ever hated on SNL was by me, and anything you ever liked was by someone else who did it against my will.
Sincerely,
Tina Fey
P.S. You know who does have a funny bone in her body? Your mom every night for a dollar.”

Time to exercise the “lady hero” tag I created last week!
Oh, high school was such fun. One Monday morning, senior year, Spanish class, I overheard a douchey junior saying, “Oh my god, that party! Wasn’t it amazing? You know that movie Can’t Hardly Wait? This is gonna sound stupid, but this weekend’s party was just like that movie.” And I wanted to cry, not because I wanted to get drunk with douchey juniors, but because the party in Can’t Hardly Wait is like my holy grail of parties and all I want to do before I die is go to a party that awesome.
I’ll tell you what I do want. I want someone who will be monogamous, and nice to his mother. And I want someone who likes musicals but knows to just shut his mouth when I’m watching Lost. And I want someone who thinks being really into cars is lame and strip clubs are gross. I want someone who will actually empty the dishwasher instead of just taking forks out as needed, like I do. I want someone with clean hands and feet and beefy forearms like a damn Disney prince. And I want him to genuinely like me, even when I’m old. And that’s what I want.
I love these women.
