Iambic pentameter is a form of poetic verse most famously used by Shakespeare and his contemporaries. It represents a ten-syllable line made up of alternately unstressed and stressed syllables. Each pair of syllables makes up one iamb, or “foot”. When the meter is reversed and the stressed syllable leads, it’s called a trochee.
Shakespeare has been a huge force in my life for as long as I can remember, and I’ve always been fascinated by his use and subversion of verse to indicate his characters’ emotions.
This is my very own “iambic foot” and “trochaic foot”. These hatch-marks are how you can mark down where the stress lies in a line of verse.

Cool idea!

These boxes have become her favorite spot since I started moving stuff out of the apartment, and now that I need to use them, I feel really bad about deconstructing her hangout.

It’s a sunbathing kind of morning.

entertainmentweekly:

It’s true, Stefon — we compiled a full directory of New York’s 31 hottest clubs.

This post has everything.

Just listened to the NPR interview with Bill Hader yesterday. It was fun to hear where Stefon came from. I think he’s my favorite SNL character ever. Sad to see it come to an end.
