One of our favorite snippets from Charlsie:

Full post here.

I woke up early and headed down to the studio at Next New Networks. The girls of Nonsociety were shooting new episodes of TMI. When I got there, Mary was working and so was NonSociety’s old intern Samantha. She went off to college last year, and now she is home for the month doing work here and there for them. Megan, the producer, and Meghan, the technology blogger, all showed up on time … but there was no Julia in sight. Julia actually showed up two and a half hours late. I think the production team who works on their show grew really impatient, which is understandable. However, when she showed up, things moved really fast and the girls immediately taped their episodes. Interns couldn’t go in the room, so Samantha and I sat outside and worked. I was able to get a lot of work done via the internet, so it was a good time to get ahead.

After the girls shot TMI, we watched the rough draft of their “Mr.Roboto” lip dub that they did for Cisco in Las Vegas for the CES conference earlier this month. It was really funny, but the editing was amazing. I think everyone was pretty satifised, even if it was a little over the top and insane. I am sure “Mr.Roboto” - the NonSociety lip dub, will make its way onto the internet soon enough.

There was supposed to be a Nonsociety meeting at Meghan’s apartment later that night, but it never happened. When I left though, Julia gave me the dress she wore to the Google Inauguration Ball to return and a whole bunch of electronics to send out to people.

  1. Where was this? When you click on it, it says blog not found.

    Classy, by the way, to be 2.5 hours late to taping. No wonder Mary can barely contain her seething hatred of her. That would piss me the hell off. Like her time is more important than everyone else's -- that says so much about her character.

  2. Wow. Girl is getting used.

    She then goes on about attending an event later in the evening, and her finding the other attendees to be fake, rude, and pretentious. Someone more learned than me, fill me in: is this irony? Poignancy? It's effin' funny, I know that

  7. How embarrassing for all of you . . . proving to the world you have nothing better to do with your lives than to meddle into other's lives that you WISH you could have. HA.

    Why is that ALWAYS the canned response someone writes when they have nothing else to contribute, assuming that the people behind the other posts are losers?! You have NO idea who are behind these posts, and it's obvious that you're one of the pathetic people we're writing about. Otherwise, who else would give a flying fuck AND get so emotional about it.

    And furthermore, sweetie, what they're doing is NOT "having a life." If you think that flitting around to parties, posting pictures of yourself with accomplished people and famewhoring is a life, then you have plenty of growing up to do.

    If you think these people behind NS are happy, then you, honey, are the delusional one.

    And if you are indeed that intern, get AWAY AS FAST AS YOU CAN. NOTHING GOOD CAN COME OUT OF YOUR ASSOCIATION WITH THEM.

  13. Oh, I get it. This girl is basically JA's personal assistant, except she doesn't get paid.

    JA may be an utterly shameless starfucker, but she ain't dumb. She may be the Queen of Freebies.

  14. I don't understand this whole concept. I get free internships at, say, a newspaper, where in exchange for your time you get valuable experience in a newsroom.

    But what is this poor girl getting?

    She is basically a slave doing humiliating grunt work from which no benefit will result.

    CHARLSIE: RUN!!

  15. Not only experience, but respect and a resume-enhancer, not a joke.

  16. ANON 8:07 - You hit the nail on the head. We're SO jealous, all of us. Seething in envy at all these girls have. I wish I could be homeless like Mary. I wish I could live off a trust fund and have no personal accomplishments like Meghan. I wish I could be a bulimic with emotional issues like Julia. I also wish I could live in her tiny shoebox apartment and make up sources for my fishwrapper freelance column. I wish I had her skills at stalking, chasing off and creeping out men. I wish I could inject toxins and poisons into my face and then later "cleanse" them out like Mary. I wish I had her horribly money management skills and tacky used clothes. I wish I was an anorexic gym rat and had her leathery, papery skin. I wish I had friends like hers who had the gall to tell her to get Botox. I wish I could leech off my friends for travel like Meghan and Julia. I wish I was sad and alone and had no friends, family or partners to tell me they cared about me and wanted what was best for me. Yep, GREEN with envy.

  17. You're right, Anon 8:07, I am really really really jealous I didn't get to ride on a giant golden dildo at a conference yesterday, and then post pictures of it on my low-content website. Burnin', I tell ya.
