Buy Or Don’t Buy

A while ago, I wrote about the comedic couple of Sarah Silverman and Jimmy Kimmel and how they broke up and that really saddened me. After all, there are very few couples I root for and when one of them reconciles and gets back together, it’s awesome! It turns out Splits-ville was just a vacationing [...]

So last night I got invited to tag along with Brooklyn based rock band The Knees to a party at Moby’s house. At first I thought it was kind of rando, but then I found out it was actually a party held in Barack Obama’s honor, which totally explains everything. Barack is, after [...]

Normally, I avoid the top 40 radio stations and hits. But occasionally, I hear about these rock and pop stars through tabloids and other ridiculousness. And although some news and celebrities don’t really bother me, i.e. Britney Spears. (I’m not from the church of “leave Britney alone” or anything but because she’s in constantly unfunny [...]

Both Burr Steers and Noah Baumbach have used Park Slope to define cold, alienating childhoods.
Early scenes from Igby Goes Down (young Ryan Philipe’s hair blinds!) follow Bill Pullman’s xter walking down tree’d streets with his two peacoated sons. The film goes on to Manhattan and DC to illustrate their parents’ two failed routes in raising [...]

I saw this picture on an image board I frequent and it reminded me of the culturally significant website that wants to ban Comic Sans. People are font snobs. I guess I’m a font snob too. I have to admit Comic Sans and Jokerman are both atrocious, but they have their (ironic?) [...]

Some time ago, around the time of the release of Eminem’s album The Eminem Show (2002), I decided that he was the only rapper with the chops to tell the story of Enron. That is, Eminem would portray the rise and fall of the Fortune 500 energy-trading behemoth in an epic, 3-disc concept album entitled [...]

So, if I have the story correct, I think the guy on the ground attempted to rob one of the baggy t-shirt dudes in this video with a tiny little razor as his weapon.  In the middle of the day.  In Brooklyn.
Everyone around was all “NO FUCK THAT” and ran to intervene.  They surrounded the [...]

So I was having a conversation over drinks (as all of my conversations tend to go) and the topic got around to why our economy is fucked. I mean, this is a pretty big conversation, so it took a few rounds to sort out. From what I can remember through my hangover is [...]

So as I type this, there are like 3 hurricanes in a row headed for America. The Westover Baptist Church people might have us believe it’s because God hates fags, or some such. But the Church of BODB believes it’s because God hates Republicans.
Three hurricanes. Three chances to bungle an evacuation and [...]

A bit of tv news today - Jennifer Aniston will be guest-starring on this season of one of my favorite shows ever, 30 Rock.
Dude…I hate Jennifer Aniston.  And to be honest, I can’t quite explain the levels of hate that I feel everytime I see her annoying, square-jawed face.  It could be that Friends was one [...]
