The truth: All I want is to be wonderful.

Marilyn Monroe, photographed with Tony Curtis, Jack Lemmon, and her admittedly superior breasts on the set of Some Like It Hot (1959, dir. Billy Wilder) (via drmacro)
“[The tailor on Some Like It Hot] measured me, 16, 34, 43, 18, 19, 18,” Tony Curtis later recalled, “and then he goes to Marilyn - this is all in the same day and this is the truth…He comes in to Marilyn’s room and Marilyn had on a pair of panties and a white blouse and that’s all. He put the tape around her legs, looked up at Marilyn and said, ‘You know, Tony Curtis has got a better-looking ass than you. She was standing there, she unbuttoned her blouse, and said, “He doesn’t have tits like these!’”
For once, I think we need these salty stories, because Monroe needs all the salt she can get. The Marilyn industry is so deeply soaked in her crack-ups-shaking the poor woman until we can hear the slosh of booze and the rattle of pills-that it’s a relief to get back to the floozie with the forked tongue.
-Anthony Lane, excerpted from “On Billy Wilder”, The New Yorker
I love that picture, and that movie is in my top 5 of all time.](http://19.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ksm9p4iKYu1qzdvhio1_r1_500.jpg)

Cheeming Boey uses sharpies and styrofoam cups to express his creativity. Each cup takes hours or months to complete. These are so amazing, check out the rest here.

Golden Brown by The Stranglers
I saw The Stranglers (alongside The Clash, The Cure and Depeche Mode) in Athens, Greece, when I was 20. Awesome memory. Awesome song.
I love this song. So jealous of you Mabel!
This emoticon is one of my favourite things ever. It can represent happiness or, when I’m in a bad mood but don’t want to talk about it, passive aggressiveness. Perfect.
I love the diversity of emoticons.
“ Unrequited love may be painful, but it is safely painful, because it does not involve inflicting damage on anyone but oneself,a private pain that is as bittersweet as it is self-induced. But as soon as love is reciprocated, one must be prepared to give up the passivity of simply being hurt to take on the responsibility of perpetrating hurt oneself.
