If you could hate-fuck anyone in the world, who would it be?
The entire cast of The Hills.
What do you predict will be the next annoying hipster trend?
Fudgesicles. It’ll be the antithesis to the cupcake phenomenon. Also, I hear smiling is finally coming back in style.
The Backstreet Boys released their new album in October, just in time for the holidays! Stocking stuffers, right?
You mean the Backstreet Boys album called Unbreakable? As in, “Wow, the Backstreet Boys’ belief that, at age 30, they are still a boy band, is unbreakable?” No, I already bought the 2005 release of Sugar Ray’s greatest hits to give as gifts this year.
Jack Daniel’s turns me into a crazy mess. What drink brings out “nutso giulia?”
There is a vicious rumor out there (started by me) that vodka often makes me cry, get into a fight, or fuck. And if it’s a really good night I do all three. At the same time.
Were you naughty or nice this year?
I don’t remember. Just tell Santa to gimme a condo and a 401K for Christmas or I’ll hate-fuck him till he does.
