God, my dream is to be a To Catch a Predator decoy.
Oh me too. I’ll even be the in house decoy. I’ve been practicing my “I have to go get the laundry” and “I’ll go make us some ice tea” for years.

Another TV Show Promo of the Day: Mindy Kaling’s ditching the downward-spiraling Office for her own show, The Mindy Project, and based on the trailer, we can expect a much smarter, if not much savvier, version of Kelly Kapoor.
Kaling plays a professionally accomplished OB-GYN whose personal life is a hot mess; as her lovelorn character admits in the preview, she’s looking for a man with “the wealth of Mayor Bloomberg, the personality of Jon Stewart, the face of Michael Fassbender… the penis of Michael Fassbender.”
Oh, Mindy, the impossible quest…

I was lucky enough to work a little on the pilot. I’m so glad to hear that it’s being picked up!

Has anyone ever attended? It seems like an amazing event, but I would probably have to sell a kidney to afford to get in.
A search today turned up a few new film crew tumblrs. I love that more people are talking about what we do and are sharing their stories. Can’t wait to see what everyone is working on.
The Invisible Borders That Define American Culture
One of the clearest regional differences in the U.S. can found by tracking the words people use to refer to soft drinks, which is in fact the map you saw at the top of this story. Pop or soda, or even Coke, these small linguistic differences are not as small as we might think. While “soda” commands the Northeast and West Coast (green) and “pop” is in between (black), “Coke” reigns in the south (turquoise). These small distinctions can often act as touchstones for larger cultural differences.

Click through to the article, it’s really interesting!
I do not know a single person from the south that refers to sodas collectively as coke. Everyone I’ve ever met who does that is from either the midwest or one person from New Jersey.
We had this conversation recently at work. “Coke” is definitely a deep south thing, not quite as widespread as this map seems to make it. One of the ADs’ grandmother calls everything that isn’t coffe/tea or water a coke. Lemonade? Coke. Fruit punch? Coke. Pepsi? Coke.
Look at all the black?! I’m not that much of a freak for saying pop.
