Hey Look

Thoughts from someone excited about most things. I started StyleSeat where I spend most of my time. Check out my bio if you're curious or pull up a chair and hang out for a while. You can also make my day by dropping me a line @melodymcc. Seriously. Do it.

Tennis is for Zombies

The UK’s Guardian blogger highlighted the ludicrously long 10 1/2 hour Wimbledon match between Mahut and Isner. The live blog for the historic game, which ended at 59-all (I know) started as respectable coverage of an important event. After a full day though it got pretty hilarious. My favorite portion:

7.45pm: What happens if we steal their rackets? If we steal their rackets, the zombies can no longer hit their aces and thump their backhands and keep us all prisoner on Court 18. I’m shocked that this is only occurring to me now. Will nobody run onto the court and steal their rackets? Are they all too scared of the zombies’ clutching claws and gore-stained teeth? Steal their rackets and we can all go home. Who’s with me? Steal their rackets and then run for the tube.
It’s 48-48. What further incentive do you need?

The match lasted another hour and a half.
