Buy Or Don’t Buy

What a painful situation. You log into facebook one bright morning to find one of your friends has uploaded and tagged some photos of you. If you’re like me (painfully self aware) you instantly get pangs of paranoia. My immediate reaction goes something like this:
“OH MY GOD THAT IS A HORRIBLE PICTURE [...]

So some big (kinda) news yesterday - that internet hacker protest group thingy “Anonymous” hacked into Sarah Palin’s Yahoo e-mail account and posted the files of a bunch of private e-mails.
Anonymous is already a vaguely well-known group because earlier this year they staged all these anti-Scientology protests and wore masks and shit. And while [...]

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 [...]

And now that we know, we can finish destroying this planet and have a planet covered in rust to move on to, I was expecting more than [...]

Just today I was driving down St. Charles Ave when I said to myself, “Dude, I could totally go for a burrito right now.” (Yes, I called myself “dude.”) Suddenly I realized that my shiny new GPS navigation system could easily tell me the nearest burrito place. With a few taps of the touch-screen, I [...]

During the course of my travels today, I walked past two Apple stores. Each had a line outside stretching around the block, full of unfortunate souls who had to spend a beautiful Saturday holed up in a nasty,sweaty queue trying to get a phone to work. (Apple provided stylish black umbrellas so people didn’t get [...]
