February had a lot of weird early spring weather and really boring media frenzies. Everyone got all racist about Jeremy Lin, and then they got all sexist about Planned Parenthood (again…god, what year is this?), and then they finally figured out publicly that everyone who votes in the Oscars is old and white and that's why they are so boring. If we wanted to have our culture decided by old white dudes, we would let Congress deal with it. Anyways, there wasn't really even any good, juicy gossip. Everyone was legit sad about how drugs fucked up Whitney, and even Google seemed to think that Rick Santorum wasn't funny anymore. Oh well, whatever. Maybe something really good or really bad will happen in March.
