About Us
Have you ever wondered about those who devote their lives to mocking and loving soap operas (in that order)? Well, wonder no more...
BECCA THOMAS (EVIL BUT TWINLESS)
Becca Thomas may or may not be the real life name of Evil But Twinless, who may or may not be a professional type in her early-thirties in a big eastern city. She can decisively confirm that she watches Days of our Lives (religiously back when it was great in the mid-80s to early-90s, spottily for 15 years or so after that), and General Hospital (sucked in when it was great in the early- to mid-90s, suffering on-and-off through Sonny worship since). She has to watch both every day now, on account of the whole soap blogger/columnist thing. This kind of commitment is terrifying.
Her likes include islands, skiing, reading, The Daily Show, burritos, formulaic romantic comedies, wood-burning fireplaces, criticizing stuff, cheesy teen TV dramas, dishwashers, Thai iced tea, black and white photos, tulips, boats, big dogs, baseball, won tons, cashmere, TiVo, roller coasters, swimming, George Clooney, reality shows that involve dancing, and boots. Dislikes include puns, cruise ships, cauliflower, sleet, shoes with ankle straps, science fiction, management-speak, taking soap operas too seriously, gauchos, fireplaces that turn on with a light switch, gardening, people who say "hang in there," sunburns, Mel Gibson, and dogs in purses.
MALLORY HARLEN (PROMISING INGÉNUE)
Mallory Harlen is in her mid-twenties and currently playing the role of Pam Beesly in a real life version of The Office for a company in the suburbs of New York. She was introduced to soap operas by her awesome aunts and currently watches All My Children, Days of Our Lives, General Hospital and The Young and the Restless with varying degrees of attention and fondness.
Her likes include alphabetical order, baseball, Bravo reality shows, Clueless and similarly clever teen movies, Diet Coke, The Golden Girls, handbags, Leonardo DiCaprio, Madonna, magazines, making lists, museums, reading, Reese Witherspoon, seafood, Sephora, Trivial Pursuit, Twizzlers, and The Wizard of Oz. Her dislikes include basketball, Bic Pens, Chad Michael Murray, citrus fruits, clowns, fax machines, movies where children are evil, the phrase "and we'll go from there", ponchos, slow talkers, slow walkers, the way the world is biased against left-handed people, whipped cream and white chocolate.
