UPDATE: Kevin Rose -- The Latest Jackles Target?

The clever bunnies in our commenting section are brave souls, and actually took the time to listen to that excruciating radio interview linked to below. They're speculating that the guy Julia has "been after" for a year, even while dating at least two other men (Forman and Leventhal, poor sods) must be Kevin Rose, founder of Digg.

They point out that Rose Twittered last night about finding an amazing sushi restaurant in San Francisco, and Jackles mentions receiving a sexy text from said target about amazing sushi on the same day. And guess who's headed to Rose's home base of San Francisco soon for her bi-coastal birthday celebration, despite being broke?

Gawker has already noted this onetime flirtation. That piece apparently scared Rose off.

Even if it's not Rose, does Jackles ever learn? Can she keep NOTHING to herself, not even sexy texts? Does discretion feel like physical pain to her? Bunnies want to know.

UPDATE: This just in from a JacklesTweet:

juliaallison GET READY SF! I'll be making a little bday visit Feb 23-28. Agenda: birthday tattoos, birthday parties, birthday suits. You know. The usual.
Birthday suit, you say? Run, Kevin Rose! RUN!!!!

  1. If it was Rose he was goofing, drunk, or his phone was stolen. I heard about the first "date" from Kevin himself. Trust me it's one of the above scenarios.

  2. From cupcakes to men, I think Julia's main problem boils down to the fact that she has absolutely NO self control. Not to mention how extraordinarily tacky it is to host your own bi-coastal birthday and ask for donations at the door. Ick. Doesn't Facebook have a PR team that handles Randi? Why is she so stupidly associating herself with Jackles? I get why rich tech dweebs might be temporarily mesmerized by Julia's waxen complexion but I really don't get why Randi is friends with Julia - she doesn't need her and she only serves to tarnish her so far untarnished image.

  4. Any more info, Loren.

    P.S. I heart you!!!! That puppet video was genius. Especially the hair flip at the end.

  5. MeanGirl: She has no impulse control in any area of her life. It is bizarre.

  6. Sorry Bunnie, I can't really give more info, Bro's before Handmaidens kinda thing.

    ReplyDelete
  7. I think that makes me love you more, Loren.

  8. So Zooey Deschanel is Mary and Julia's latest celebristalk? (Let's hope Julia's next ill-advised impulse will be to chop her hair into a heavy-banged Zooey cut.) However, to any Team Mary supporters, let's pause for a minute and just remember just how dumb this girl is. She says the following in her Zooey post: "I really don’t follow/enjoy pop culture." Really? You don't read books? See movies? Watch TV shows? Read magazines? I guess the combination of booze plus lack of protein in her diet really has started to eat away at her brain.

    ReplyDelete
  9. I laughed out loud at that. She's constantly blogging about fashion, awards shows, watching 24, but she doesn't "follow/enjoy pop culture."

    Maybe she thinks it means something else?

    Oh Bunnie.

    ReplyDelete
  10. LOL at the "pop culture" thing. Can't make this shit up!

  12. JA is no Zsa Zsa Gabor it might be time ot stop acting like one..

    ReplyDelete
  13. omg....the new tmi video has them guffawing about blow jobs. seriously made me cringe.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Hey Loren--whatever happened to that reconciliation thing you filmed with JAB a while back? Where you made up in a restaurant or something? I stopped reading 1938 Media after that. I guess it didn't last?

    ReplyDelete
  15. Random thoughts on what Jackles should do next for my amusement:

    -try out to be a wifetestant on the next Bachelor
    -become a member of Scientology
    -start wearing aprons in public

    ReplyDelete
  16. Thanks anon 10:58 so I didn't have to type in the question myself. I lost interest in 1938 after that, too. Although the people waving to the camera at the table behind them was pretty darn priceless!

    ReplyDelete
  17. 10:58 here (I'll start using a name)--I expected Loren was going to go into partnership with her somehow or something. Seemed like a business deal? He's very biting and the puppet stuff is hysterical. It seemed like that dinner thing came out of left field. Never heard anything more about it.

    ReplyDelete
  18. I'm no prude, but just the sight of JA using the word "blow job" skeeved me out, that's how unsexy I find her.

    Also, how does she ever stop talking long enough to blow someone?

    ReplyDelete
  19. Yeah, Loren. I also stopped reading 1938 Media after the Julia Allison rapproachment. Surely you realize that she was just sucking up to you to get free, hopefully positive publicity. As my grandmother used to say--and Julia is so fond of quoting her own right-wing granny--anybody can be nice for a couple of hours. I also noted that post rapproachment, the hilarious video of renaming Julia's website came down. Best suggestion? whywriteicanplagiarize.com.

  20. I'm having a serious crush on Loren right about now.

  21. Kevin, I've stopped watching the TMI videos completely. They're gross, unbearable and it gets effing boring watching hammy Julia and lettucy Mary glare at each other while Meghanaise sits there all plain and goopy and legs uncrossed in the middle of that soggy bitchbread sandwich.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Mean Girl, Your sentence comparing the unholy trinity to sandwiches may be the most clever sentence I read all year! Certainly far more clever than Julia's choice, that tweener line comparing hugging Jennifer Anniston to cupcakes and kittens. I note that our lady reblogged that sentence from a "lifecast" of some inane blog called Crazy Loves Company. How apropos!

    Oh, I stopped watching TMI, too. No more hits for the Pink Lady.

  23. Am I the only one who still gets the V-Day episode when going to TMI?

  24. Please someone bid on this:

    It would be irony if a RBNS reader won the bid process and was able to blog about the trainwreck up close and personal

  26. Wantrepreneur, Julia Allison __________________.

    Fill in the blank.

    Wantrepreneur is effing genius, but that's Gawker/Valleywag for you. Always quick with the neologisms!

  27. I would have called her a Flauntepreneur, but that's just me.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Or flauntrepreneur...apparently my last post was a tribute to Mary's spelling.

  29. You commenters are smokin' this morning. My hat is off to you, Mean Girl, Squirrel Nutkin, Daisy,et alia...wordsmiths all. And funny.

  30. Mary is a gauntrepreneur.
    Julia is a tauntrepreneur.
    Meghan is a hauntrepreneur.

  31. look at average bids, priceless:

  32. Awesome...the description of the evening says that the winner can "bring something to be signed."

    ReplyDelete
  33. Actual blog convo:

    Meghan: If we raise over $1000, all three of us will wear tutus!

    Julia: And if we raise $2000, I’ll kiss you on the mouth while wearing a tutu!! Woooooo. No tongue though. That’s for $5000.

    How much before the winner gets to sleep with them because that's basically what they're escalating to, right? So who do you think the poor sap will be who wins this auction? They get the added public humiliation of the "date" being blogged about by all three of them so the winning bidder can't exactly keep it a secret that he/she paid to hang out with these dolts.

    PS - Julia posted a picture of a wedding dress on her blog. Get your tux ready, Kevin Rose!!

    ReplyDelete
  34. Why the random picture of a wedding dress without any accompanying commentary?

  35. Mr. and Mrs. Baugher
    request the honor of your presence

    In lieu of presents and in order to gain admittance, the couple ask that you make a donation to the charity of their choice.

    Dress: pink tie

    ReplyDelete
  36. James, I thought you made up that blog convo as a joke. Holy shit it's real.

    ReplyDelete
  37. Gawker is making fun of their auction, too. In their tags, they call Meghan "The Other One" which made me think of Teen Girl Squad. The similarities are a little eerie:

    ReplyDelete
  38. I think Gawker is giving them publicity more than making fun of them. If Gawker really disliked these girls, they would link to this site or Baugher or even publish that henious email Julie wrote to Jakob asking for the Mac Air a year ago. As it was, Valleywag did it.

    ReplyDelete
  39. James: I wonder if the winner gets to sleep with all three of them at once? ugh..now I have to wash my brain out with soap.

    ReplyDelete
  40. Gawker simultaneously makes fun of them AND gives them publicity because they want them to hang around and be a punching bag for as long as possible - they get page views. They're not trying to take them down, which is why they won't link here or to Baugher. But Julia and Co. need Gawker much more than Gawker needs them.

    ReplyDelete
  41. "This sushi is turning me on so much I reconsidering my restraining order against you."

    ReplyDelete
  42. James is correct. Gawker and NonSociety have a symbiotic relationship.

    I honestly think Julia is flattered that Gawker covers her. It confirms her own suspicion that she's a BIG CELEBRITY, a la Demi and Ashton.

    ReplyDelete
  43. Julia considering herself to be a big celebrity is sort of like being the world's tallest midget.

    ReplyDelete
  44. Dahling: And don't think that Julia doesn't love this site too, and Baugher blogger. "See? There are entire sites devoted to discussing ME ME ME!" (She skips over the content of course; it's just the thrill of adding notches on her pink attention-whore pole that count.)

    ReplyDelete
  45. If this is the same BethCooper: congrats for your v stealthy comments in QOTD.

    ReplyDelete
  46. But aren't the Gawker pageviews for the Nonsociety nonsense largely from the same circle of people in Manhattan? Advertisers can't really love that. I have friends who read Gawker outside of NYC and they never read those articles. Nor, by the way, do any serious people I know in the media. Although that's come to be Gawker as a whole in the last year.

    ReplyDelete
  47. Anon 2:57, you are sadly correct.

    Can you fucking imagine what Julia's father's partners at the law firm must think. Julia has mentioned a few times that she dropped "Baugher" because she didn't want her parents' friends to keep emailing them things like "Your daughter writes a sex column??"

    I am shocked they have disowned her the way they've apparently disowned Mr. Baugher's mother (the unloved grandmother never blogged about, I assume)... who I hear also lives in the same neighborhood.

    ReplyDelete
  49. Redacted NonE, I have also found the Urban Dictionary definition of jackles to be somewhat appropriate in our case. So much so that I've adopted it as my URL.

    jackles: proportional to the term "shut the fuck up bitch"

    ReplyDelete
  50. Yes, I clicked on your link, Mean Girl, and then since I was already there (UD), I looked up Jankles.

    ReplyDelete
  51. I like Jankles because it sort of sounds like Janky. According to Urban Dictionary -

    Janky - adjective used to describe a person, place or thing which is questionable, fucked up, wrong, strange, broken down, undesirable, and/or just some thing you can't think of another word for.

    Can also be used to describe JA

    ReplyDelete
  52. ummmm... who the f*** is kevin rose?

    ReplyDelete
  53. I don't want to hear Julia talk about blow jobs because I love blow jobs and that's a total boner killer. Honestly. I might totally have to give up Nonsociety now.

    Favorite line: "We love men as long as they don't cheat on us and give us lots of presents.".

    The juxtaposition of the TMI weekly special Valentine's videos alongside the ads for the new Friday the 13th movie is absolutely hilarious, but me thinks the irony is lost on the girls.

    Plus - I think I see a wrinkle on Mary's forehead.

    ReplyDelete
  54. How funny would it be if I showed up as the winner of this auction?

    I mean... I like water.

  55. I say we all contribute money, win the prize, and then elect someone to go on the date. Calling Russian Girl!!!

    ReplyDelete
  56. I cannot believe that I lost such trust, I always had a plan. I loved that video. Thought it was obvious I was goofing. Anyway, Russian Girl would be the awesome choice.

  57. Caroline, it's been way too long since I got a Strong Bad fix. Thanks for that.

  58. It's cool, Loren. You can make it up to us with the SXSW footage...

  59. Dearest Russian Girl,
    There comes a point in every young Russian lady's life when she must venture out of her small village, come to the City Made of Apples and meet the One with the hair made of straw and the other ones.

    For mere rubles - it all can be yours! What do you say?

    Sincerely,
    Mona

  60. That wedding dress picture she posted on NS without any text is obviously featuring in her fantasy wedding to Kevin Rose. It's got a cascade of roses running down the side, and the headpiece is a giant rose. Crafty, Jules.

    She's like a junior high schooler doodling hearts with initials on her binder.
