Every Thanksgiving, one of the things I'm grateful for is the opportunity to use this photo. Here at GFY HQ, we wish all our American readers a very happy and healthy holiday, and our non-American readers a very delightful Thursday-Sunday, because we are taking the traditional four-day weekend to recharge our fug batteries (and eat more than we ought). We will be back with fresh material and new posts on Monday, November 30. Until then, please enjoy these selections from all over the interwebs, and, as always, be excellent to each other.
-- This pic of Gabby Sidibe hanging out with Joan Collins basically just makes me happy. I want the two of them to pair up for a buddy cop comedy and run around and be awesome together. (Dlisted)
-- I just want to know how Jimmy Fallon discovered he could impersonate Neil Young singing Will Smith's "Fresh Prince of Bel Air." Like, how did that happen? (Gothamist)
-- I can't imagine when else I would have the opportunity to link to a website featuring, in its own words, "eclectic and rare book illustrations," other than now, when it features a post about a family called, yes, The Fuggers. Thank goodness the opportunity arrived, because it is a fascinating site and you may waste hours there. (BibliOdyssey)
-- On the other side of the intellectual coin, I'm proud to say I aced this "The Many Hats of George Costanza" quiz. I'm coming for you, Independent George! (Mental Floss)
-- This four-day weekend means SHOPPING. Lucky Magazine put together a great list of online Black Friday deals. (Lucky)
-- You've probably seen this already, but pictures of Katie Couric dirty dancing are NEVER not funny. (Gawker)
-- As a kid, I was inordinately obsessed with pop-up books. The dude who was responsible for their resurgence in the United States recently died. Here are ten awesome pop-up books, in his honor. (Flavorwire)
-- Talk about having a type. This woman romanced not one, but TWO of her doormen. Now she's suing her co-op. Apparently, her packages aren't arriving. There's a dirty joke in there somewhere.... (NY Daily News)
-- I can TOTALLY believe Miley Cyrus pulled out the old, "Don't you know who I am?" What delights me, however, is the recipient's reaction. (Lainey Gossip)
-- OH MY GOD. Twilight branding is officially OUT OF CONTROL: cops on Long Island found BAGS OF HEROIN WITH FREAKING EDWARD'S FACE ON THEM. (Cityfile)
-- You need to friend Courtney Love on Facebook RIGHT NOW. Seriously. Go, and come back. I'll wait. Apparently she's dishing about everyone in her status updates. For example, she claims Ed Norton lost $300,000 of her dollars. (Movieline)
-- And finally. You may have seen this already. But in case you haven't, you must. Because it is the best thing that ever happened. Ever. It's Muppets. Singing "Bohemian Rhapsody." Did I clap with glee when Miss Piggy appeared? OH YES I DID. WATCH IT. And have an amazing weekend. (Via Great White Snark)
