MEOW?

I don’t know if “the jig is up” is even an appropriate phrase to use here, it’s kind of one of those Jason Stathamisms I end up barfing out at all the wrong moments, but WHATEVER, it’s fucking happening:

Shoemaker Crocs widened its loss in the first quarter, sending shares plunging more than 20% in after-market trading.

Stop covering Kate Bush's songs. She will pounce you.

Big Star’s first two records are about to be reissued on vinyl and CD in a month, which makes me giddier than a pig rolling in dollar bills. Big Star’s legacy might be Read More →

Some of you may remember the time I gleefully applied to be an office intern for It’s A Good Day To Be Black And Sexy — regretfully I didn’t land the gig, but my shattered hopes have been pieced back together.  Really, the moment I came across this listing I practically crapped liquid cover letters:

Let’s recap:

• No website, despite an online listing
• A gmail address that randomly has the word “sushi” in it
• A preference for “graffic student”
• Passion for fashion
• Requirement that candidates “be multi-task”
• Know how to GOOGLE

Listen, this place sounds like it’s run by a bunch of methed out LOLcats, and you can count me the fuck in. I’m totally multi-task, I’ve watched the Tyra Banks channel until my eyes smiled blood, and I can Google so well I’ll probably have all the sushi rockstars in that flophouse playing MMORPGs by the time they can process my nonexistent paycheck.  BRB updating my resume.

Just two adorable Easter bunnies eatin' matzo.

Why a video? Well, it’s simple. We love Passover, and we think Easter’s cool too ’cause bunnies are cuddly.  We enjoy the festivities and the universal cheer of springtime.  And we enjoy the way we feel after we stuff a tall stack of sheets of dry matzo in our mouths. We also lie about that last part.

Watch and you’ll understand.

This cat is of sick of writing press releases.

PR people must be the unhappiest people in the entire world. They might not be aware of their misery – perhaps it lies under their skin, bubbling like a hepatitis-infected creek Read More →

Nice scarf, Kirk.

Metallica is going into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this year, an accomplishment that rates somewhere between getting a full snack card punched at Baskin Robbins and getting into clown college. They deserve it, for sure Read More →

THE WOZ gettin' Wozzy on a bitch

I may have been all huffy about teen/tween trends, but now I am a changed woman (sort of) and my sarcasm has washed away (sort of!) As it turns out, we don’t all have to live a lonely, awkwardly clueless life on planet Miley Cyrus — not when there’s this season of Dancing With the Stars.  Read More →

John Cassavetes holding Gena Rowlands in loving embrace.

Paris, early December, 2008. The shop is crowded with balding men in trenchcoats squeezing past each other to flip through the next unlabeled box of DVDs as if they’re going to find what they’re looking for; Read More →

Emotional development, Supernatural-style.

We are living in a post-MTV world. Push up your glasses, spit out your dentures, yammer in edentulous glee that the old ways aren’t there and what ever happened to good old television, Read More →
