I'm trying to remember an old cartoon from the eighties or nineties (I think?)
All I can remember is it was about ladybugs and the main character was female and red...for some reason I think she was called Coco Chanel or something, I don't know. Does anybody know what I'm talking about?
 
 


Riz Ahmed is a fast-talking 30-year-old Oxford graduate and general over-achiever. But when the actor read Pakistani writer Mohsin Hamid's enigmatic thriller, The Reluctant Fundamentalist, and then found out Indian film-maker Mira Nair was making a movie based on the book, the actor found himself turning into an obsessive stalker.

Beyoncé is clearly not happy about the pregnancy buzz in the press.

After days of speculation multiple sources confirmed with E! News that she is in fact expecting her second child with Jay-Z.

But the pop singer was obviously frustrated with the rumours as she posted a sharply worded note to Instagram appearing to address the gossip head-on.


A sibling for baby Blue? Speculations that Beyonce is pregnant appeared to be confirmed by E! News, on Friday

The defensive marginalia was peppered with criticism and was obviously uploaded with a tinge of bitterness for having her personal life under such close scrutiny.

Hey TQC, I work two different jobs, pretty much from 8 AM to 11 PM every day, including alternating weekends. I also live with roommates who are obnoxious and I often don't get to sleep very well. Anyway, I was wondering what you guys do to stay sane and not get totally burnt out on work? Do you go to events? Do you lock yourself in your room? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

Let's say you're at the store and the customer in front of you is trying to buy something that requires an ID, such as alcohol or tobacco. He says he doesn't have one on him, but after some persuading, the cashier eventually decides to sell it to him anyway. Would you say anything in this situation (to the cashier and/or the customer)? If it makes a difference, it's not apparently obvious whether the customer is a minor.

eta my answer: I'm going to go out on a limb and assume I'm the only one, lol.
This situation happened recently and I almost did say something. Mainly because the cashier seemed insecure and the customer was being persistent and annoying about it. It isn't any of my business, yes, but I do hate when people act like assholes to get what they want, especially if it could be at the expense of others. This might be because I live with a manipulative kid who will say anything to get his way because his parents let him. And also because I had to deal with customers who would do things like this when I worked in retail.
 
 


Tonight, Kanye West has proven himself an innovator in the art of the album launch. He unveiled a new song and video via projections on buildings across the world. Above is what was projected at the corner of Bedford and N. 7 in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. According to Rap-Up, the song premiered is called "New Slaves". Check out video below.

Kanye's website has posted a map of the world, indicating where actions will take place throughout the night in cities throughout the world. Sixty-six projections are involved in the launch.
The track will be on the follow-up to 2010's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.

After tonight's events, we can only imagine what kind of Kanye-isms he's got cooked up for his "Saturday Night Live" performance tomorrow night.
