Go Ahead And Have The Fish & Chips: British Gents Prefer A Size 12
07.31.08 | Permalink | 6 Comments

UK’s Fabulous Mag has released the results of their “Fabulous Body Survey 2008″. And while I’ll admit it’s not the CDC, it seems to confirm what we already know: to wit, that the fashion industry and the various women’s magazine publishers are a bunch of sadistic assholes.
While the average woman is a size 16 trying [...]

Check it out kids: I’m about to save you a grip of cash by using my savvy clairvoyant powers to give you accurate reviews of three hot movies before they even come out!
DISCLAIMER
Outside of porn, I’m a fan of movies that are all talk and little action. I like when depressed gay drug addicts [...]

If you blinked last week, you may have missed the five minutes during which Moe Tkacik of Jezebel worked for Radar Online. Balk welcomed her aboard on Monday night, then bid her farewell on Wednesday afternoon as she announced that she’d gotten a “rather attractive offer” to stick with Nick and write for Gawker. Tomorrow [...]

No, I Didn’t Mean “Pianist Enlargement”: Seven Reasons Cuil Can’t Fuck With The Google
07.30.08 | Permalink | 3 Comments

So there’s a new hotshot search engine in town, and it thinks it’s better than Google. Started by ex-Google employees, Cuil claim to have a more transparent privacy policy, a more intelligent search algorithm, and they present their results in a more “magazine” format with images and blurbs. Their real claim to fame is that [...]

“Trans Fat” Sounds Like A Christian Siriano-Style Backhanded Compliment
07.30.08 | Permalink | 3 Comments

Earlier this week California became the first state to insitute a state-wide ban of trans fat use in restaurants and bakeries. This was perhaps inevitable, given that our governor used to be a champion body-builder. (Meaning that he now has geriatric man-teats.)
The usual lolbertarian retards are bleating about nanny states and bodily autonomy. I will [...]

The New York Times’s “Literacy Debate: Online, R U Really Reading?” would have lost me from the start — I try not to read anything in with LOL-speak in the title — were it not for my morbid curiosity about how badly Print Media fucked up the debate about the internet and literacy this time.
I [...]

Much like Scientology, Mad Men, and tumblr, marathons are just a way well-to-do white folk can replace one addiction with another that’s less “urban”. Here’s why being friends with a marathon-runner is EXACTLY like being friends with smack addicted Balitmore junkie
1. Money. Your money. They want some of it. And are [...]

A player, lucky charms at hand, waiting for bingo to start.
All your preparation and impossible hope will undoubtedly end in nothing new. Today will be just another day in your sad, lonely life.

You Deserve to Be Firehosed: The “Around the Office” Phrases That Merit Violence
07.29.08 | Permalink | 8 Comments

Oh man, it’s only Tuesday and I am filled with a severe blood lust for all my fellow cube dwellers. Between losing all my scrabulous games to the evil corporate overlords and being subjected to a 4 hour staff meeting I have the impulse control of boozed up celebutard.
I work at big, bloated non-profit [...]

A Nation Turns its lonely eyes to Radar Online: Douche, is it FINALLY time to bag it?!
07.29.08 | Permalink | Comment?

Radar parses the etymology and examines the reborn supremacy of the insult “douchebag”.
We’ve struggled with the use of this term for ages (since like, last October at least!).
Does it make us bad feminists (Slut Machine says no) ?
Much more importantly is it cliche?
Will the word twatwaffle adequately describe doucheyness? Just when we thought we [...]
