Better Than

I have done this before. And I regularly overload my twitter stream with them. But this guy over here reminded me of how much I loved doing this post the first time.

So, we are lather, rinse, repeating today. 

Megan Draper > Betty Draper

Betty Draper’s wardrobe > Megan Draper’s wardrobe

The Hunger Games movie > The Hunger Games book

Everyone’s hair in the history of ever > Peeta’s hair

Literal video: Total Eclipse of the Heart > Georgio singing in the Sonic Drive-Thru > Kristen Bell’s sloth meltdown

The Wire > Mad Men > Lost > The West Wing > My So-Called Life  > The Sopranos > Friday Night Lights > Arrested Development

Drummers > guitar players. (still)

Grande nonfat 2-pump sugar-free peppermint mild coffee misto > your boring old latte

Fresh mint Tic Tacs > American orange Tic Tacs > Canadian orange Tic Tacs

Menchie’s > Yogurty’s

The bus scene in Almost Famous > any scene in any movie ever

Hudson legging jeans > JBrand legging jeans> Paige legging jeans > Citizens of Humanity legging jeans > 7 for all mankind legging jeans> Gap legging jeans

My job > your job

Amber Holt > Haddie Braverman

Facebook > Twitter > Pinterest

Bread > pasta > rice > potatoes

Hanky pankys > any other underwear

My hair now > my hair six months ago

Zooey Deschanel’s hair > my hair

Football > Basketball > Baseball > Hockey

Slightly stale Peeps > fresh Peeps

Chocolate Chex > any other kind of cereal

American Girl Scout cookies > Canadian Girl Guide cookies

Stripes > Polka Dots > all other patterns

Chocolate Chili Chai > Read My Lips > Mint Chocolate Rooibos

YOU?

  1. Love this! Although I think Kristen Bell’s sloth meltdown is the best thing EVER.

  2. I’ll allow it…as I LOVE it…
    but I just like the other two more 😉

  3. You know you always inspire me, right?! I’m doing this too… later, when I’m done catching up on reading blog posts.

    I’m with you on all of this, especially your hair — it’s gorgeous!
    But not with THG movie/book thing. Close, but the book is still marginally better. xo

  4. I said this onfacebook already, but:

    The book was only okay for me. I liked it…but had lots of issues with it. None of that stuff was an issue for me for the movie…I just flat-out enjoyed it. It was really visually appealing, and the casting was really impressive.

  5. Okay, I just looked at your FB thing on it, and I have to agree with you. Before I even bought the book, they had already cast Jennifer Lawrence, so hers was the image I had in my head while I read it. I loved the movie — it really did bring the essential elements of the book to life. I’m seeing it for a second time next week. 🙂

  6. And yes, the rest of the casting was great although not exactly what I had in mind. It bugged me enough that I wrote a post about it. I’m crazy.

  7. You’re wrong about Arrested Development, though most of the rest of that I agree with.

    Also, what, no Buffy?! 🙂

  9. SHUT UP.
    I didn’t know anyone else in the world liked them stale!!!!

    Comment by ali on March 28, 2012

  10. YES! Basically my whole family does. I always eat one or two fresh because I can’t resist but the rest sits in the open package for at least two days. Now I want peeps. Good thing it’s Easter (or you know any holiday) time!

    Comment by Jen on March 28, 2012

  11. I TOTALLY agree with you on Menchies! My list will come late, but I had to say that.

    Comment by Mari on March 28, 2012

  12. I’m totally doing this tomorrow. You know, if that’s ok. Don’t wanna be stealing anybody’s deal! 🙂

  13. I love this so much!

  14. I should have my math students do this when we first start inequalities. Maybe then they would actually know what the symbols mean and how they’re read!

    And, just insert soccer in front of football and it’s all good.

  15. This is fun, but I have to disagree on The Hunger Games. At least the first book cause I don’t remember the other two anymore.

  16. […] I saw Adam and Ali’s posts this week, I knew I needed to get in on this action. Ali had me at “The bus scene in […]

  17. I loooove Zooey Deschanel’s hair. So much.

  18. I have to add… Singing drummer > Drummer > Guitar Player 😉

    I love this post!

    Comment by Stephanie Montreuil on March 29, 2012

  19. LOVE this. I may need to take it up as a hobby myself. And you’re right about the bus scene from Almost Famous, and definitely about Amber > Haddie. Delightful post 🙂
