Orson Welles

Was an influential American film director, writer, and actor. Though he is most well known for his infamous 1938 War of the Worlds broadcast and his 1941 directoral debut Citizen Kane, considered by many to be the greatest film ever made, Welles has done far more than that.

Welles is often seen as a genius and one of the greatest filmmakers ever, yet, due to problems he had in Hollywood after the release of his first two films, Citizen Kane and The Magnificent Ambersons, he is also seen as a fallen giant and a commercial failure. Welles was also very overweight for the latter half of his life.

You know who is a great filmmaker? Orson Welles!

I feel more betrayed than Orson Welles after Hollywood butchered The Magnificent Ambersons.

Go on a diet you Orson!

A star? Brady thinks he's a star?

Now the dancing cat on YouTube, that's a star. Brady's no weblebrity.

webcest

Everything depraved, dirty, and otherwise morally outrageous that has become generally avaliable thanks to the internet.

Webcest is when you start putting your undergarments on the scanner and posting the pictures on pro-anorexia Livejournal communities.

wellesley

A nice town 12 miles west of Boston known for its excellent public school system, yet many people in Wellesley send their kids to private school anyway. Also Wellesley and Babson colleges are located here, but Wellesley is not a college town by any means. Although there is a lot going on in town, some neighborhoods can seem eerily quiet when you drive through them. Many people leave town during the summer, which is nice for everyone else because we do not have to sit in traffic and wait in line. Our newspaper is called the Townsman; it has a police blotter which recalls all crime and incidents for the past week, very entertaining to read. An average of three people are arrested in Wellesley each week, usually for drunk driving or driving without a license, so nothing interesting really happens here. We usually go to Natick or Framingham if we're looking for something to do. I don't know how many pizza places per capita there are in this town, but it seems like an awful lot. Anyway, many good restaurants in Wellesley as well as good, although sometimes overpriced ice cream/frozen yogurt places. Ray Allen lived here, and David Ortiz lives next door in Weston. Very nice, new library, and the best places to get lunch are the Linden Store and Wellesley Bakery. We're rivals with Needham, but we go to their driving school.

I lived in Wellesley for 11 years.

Webcest

Neologism. It describes unusual fetishes, beliefs and activities that have been either developed on, or entirely facilitated by, the Internet. Something described as webcest should not simply be bizarre or unusual, but disturbing and unacceptable to most people (as incest is outside of the internet.)

Webcest is that special feelin' you get when you're makin' love to your old lady and you're both dressed like giraffes! It's that feelin' you get when you got high-res, glossy printouts of tubgirl and Goatse.cx and you're all alone on a school bus.
