One in a series where we take a look at the unusual, the absurd and certainly the unexpected.
Perhaps you've heard by now that actress Mila Kunis has accepted an invitation to the Marine Corps ball in November. The video invite sent by Sgt. Scott Moore can be seen here. Pretty cool, huh? And her reaction to the reaction of her accepting the invite (first link) was pretty darn cool as well.
OK, let's call it a wrap shall we and let this golden and heart-warming Hollywood moment live on in our memories unsullied for eternity.
What's that? You say you're intrigued by this lovely young lass and would like to know more about her? C'mon, do you really want to take that chance? Can we just leave well enough alone?
Alright, then...
GQ: Your new movie is called Friends with Benefits. Ever been in one of those relationships?
Mila Kunis: Oy. I haven’t, but I can give you my stance on it: It’s like communism—good in theory, in execution it fails. Friends of mine have done it, and it never ends well. Why do people put themselves through that torture?
Wait, what?
Now regardless of whether you actually agree with her judgement of either FWBs or communism, ponder the fact that this 28 yr. old actress took multiple unrelated concepts and strung them together in a single coherent thought, completely unrehearsed.
Kunis as a young girl and her parents emigrated here from the Soviet Union back in 1991 escaping what they saw as persecution against Jews. Knowing that, it's easier to see how she just might have a different perspective on things than the average American-born twenty-something.
Having said that, please count BwD as official fan-boys of Ms. Kunis.

Beautiful Hollywood starlet with a real brain? Love it. And she helps score points for Team Brunette. Go, Girl!
Toey will love this, she is his fantasy girl.
What's great about communism in theory? The horror show that is Communism (and Socialism) assumes the fatal conceit that any one or group of people can or should collectivize and control individuals by directing and proscribing their actions, always to the benefit of controlling state interests and ideologies, no matter the cost.
The great thing about comumusism in theory is the aim for a classless and stateless society. Obviously this will not work.....ever, because we are human beings. In theory, it provides common ownership and relys on the altruistic nature of man. The problem with communism is mankind, but in theory, not very well thought out.
Just trying to defend Toey's princess. Don't get him started about her around the campfire.
Divinryan, I don't necessarily disagree with you but let's celebrate the fact that this absolute hottie wasn't speaking the equivalent of wearing a Che' t-shirt.
Yes, the bar is lowered to the degree where we have to take these small victories where we can.
'Dawg, of course you'll have to remind Toey that if she's not into FwB, she may not be into casual sex.
In theory, Socialism and Communism work because the belligerently unquantifiable human variable is omitted from the theory. But when the human variable is added to the theory in practice, Socialism and Communism fail spectacularly (and disastrously) as the Massachusetts Bay Colony found out. Lots of deaths and starvation.
So I have to agree with Mila Kunis: Since Communism omits the human variable from its theory, it works in theory, but when put to practice, the human variable blows the whole thing up.
He just thinks she's hot and for her brains too. Bring her up at the next J tree.
