Me vs. 7 Dwarves… I like those odds.
So I was tagged recently by my friend over at Stop and Wander with this interesting meme: hunt out a blog post to correlate with each of Snow White’s 7 dwarves. However, I’m also gonna use my mad DJ skills and change it up by adding a song recommendation to each. Here we go:
Happy- Talking about sex makes me happy. It is such a complicated and humorous topic that I consider it the funniest thing ever, surpassing even ducks for comedy quotients. With that in mind, this rather interesting doctor discusses old people and their sexual habits. Why, if I was in my right mind, would I enjoy reading about such things? It gives me hope. I can now make plans to be the next Hugh Hefner. Women-who-have-yet-to-be-born, prepare yourself.
song: Wasted and Ready by Ben Kweller (Sha Sha)
Grumpy- the wonderfully creative and interesting folks over at red Ravine put together this dialogue with photos (or is it photos with dialogue?). Essentially, a young girl is complaining to her father about riding her bike 4 miles each way to school. While I’m not a fan of listening to someone complain, it’s well done. Plus, I really enjoy riding this badboy around.
song: Why’d You Want to Live Here? by Death Cab For Cutie (The Photo Album)
Sneezy- This one was tough, but I went with this post by Anuvue Studio, since those buildings look like a sneeze could potentially bring them tumbling down.
song: Paper Thin Walls by Modest Mouse (The Moon and Antartica)
Bashful- This one took me a while to find, but I think it’s both relevant and important. Arabs shouldn’t have to be harrassed to be able to fly. The t-shirt presents a good message: firm, but not threatening. T Critic is a fantastic blog that reviews the spectrum of t-shirts across the web.
song: Be Gentle With Me by The Boy Least Likely To (The Best Party Ever)
Doc- So this guy is apparently really smart. Like, even smarter than my dad. Even better, he writes in this clever way that I’d think would break some rules of physics: taking interesting and complicated science and recycling it in an enjoyable and understandable way for everyone. That might be why he’s titled his blog Not Exactly Rocket Science. I picked this post because I’d think winning the Daily Telegraph Science Writer Award is a pretty concrete demonstration of awesomeness.
song: Dear Mr. Supercomputer by Sufjan Stevens (The Avalanche).
Dopey- If this guy doesn’t strike you as dopey, then no expalanation is going to help. As an aside, the folks over at The Music Slut are pretty on the ball with the indie scene, especially for New York. Check ‘em out.
song: I Was Born (A Unicorn) by the Unicorns (Who Will Cut Our Hair When We’re Gone?).
Sleepy- I stumbled across this guy for this increasingly time consuming post and I think he makes a great comparison between grammar and etiquette, two topics that can put many people to sleep.
song: Only in Dreams by Weezer (Weezer (Blue))
Evil Witch- The fine lady at How to Survive Suburban Life writes up an excellent post about crazy lottery houses that, when transposed to my purposes, explains why our Witch became so evil: those castle don’t clean themselves.
song: A Poetic Retelling of an Unfortunate Seduction by Bright Eyes (Letting off the Happiness).
Wow, so that ended up being long, personal, and not funny. Don’t worry, I’ll get back into my groove again soon, assuming no more meme attacks.
*edit*- Whoops, forgot to tag people. So anybody who is mentioned here… take it or leave it, but diseases don’t spread themselves.

Well, it wasn’t funny until you said it wasn’t funny, at which point it got funny ; – 0.
I think you managed your first meme assault way admirably.
Oh, you innocent but so right – I have aspirations to being the Evil Witch, hee, hee!

Hi. Just came here in response to the pingback to my post in senior sex. Thank you, and wish you all the best.
BTW, “Dash of Panache” is such a good name for a blog!
