Happy Mental Detox week ! Yeah, so Mental Detox week began on Monday and I have yet to actually turn anything off - or at least the things that AdBusters , who launched the original TV Turn-Off week (now renamed Mental Detox Week) back in 1994 ,
want...
Tee hee! We're all a-titter over this week's Observer cover, although we can imagine Anna Wintour has an enormous bee buzzing in her bonnet right about now. Oh my! Here is this April's cover of Vogue , featuring LeBron James and Gisele Bundchen...
We're not the only one who noticed that more and more trucks are dashing
blindly onto Soldiers Field Road/Storrow drive. That's blindly, as in failed to
notice the giant sign that warns "NO TRUCKS OR BUSES." The
ever-vigilant Channel...
Last week, Slate's video editor Andy Bowers posted a video of his self-nominated "Stupidest Bike Lane in America," a lane in Western Los Angeles that runs a mere 275 feet before disappearing suddenly and completely amidst busy LA traffic...
Because in their new effort to "go green," they've determined that among 1,000 other magazines, The New Yorker 's lengthy, wordy articles (for shame!) have destroyed too many trees. Poor David Remnick . Adam Moss triumphs over you.....
Here's what we imagine happening between last Friday and this morning: football pundits like Peter King started mentally drafting their AFC Championship preview columns for Monday that would have focused on how if there was one team who could beat the...
Five worst quotes we heard last night: 5. New York Times on Grandmama Obama: " It's pretty amazing to see her as she sorts her corn on the ground ." 4. Douchebag local radio interns, heckling Hillary: " Iron my shirt! " 3. Bill Bennett on John McCain...
Congrats, Mitt! Your candidacy is officially as soft as your merch !
Ellee spread the word over on Slop earlier (complete with a fantastically crafted illustration - Ellee, you are a Photoshop genius), but Pat Lyons*, over at the NYT's Lede blog , considers a entirely different aspect to the story: "The father of the child...
The gentleman pictured above is Chris Hanson, punter for the New England Patriots. In eight games, he's been called upon to punt 18 times . For those who don't know much about football, that's not a lot of punts. But that's not what this post is about...
Would the outcome have been different had they stuck with the amazingly-named Hope Solo ? Probably not. Did Ryan open his team up to four years of second guessing with his decision? Yes. Our soccer dude, Mitch Krpata, sums things up thusly: "I would say...
It seems like the Heroes writers were so busy packing their premiere with plot that they neglected to consider that they were also making it unwatchable. A character had barely enough time last night to finish his/her lines before we were whisked off...
I'm not sure there's any way I can attempt to take a rational look at the recent revelations of the Patriots' videotaping tactics in a way that will make me look like anything but a homer, but I'm going to try. What happened on Sunday was against the...
OH LIKE THEY WOULDN'T HAVE WON THAT GAME ANYWAY ( Image from here via here . ) (UPDATE: Apparently this has been going on for some time. Finding out that Belichick's allegedly been doing this since he was with the Browns puts this in a new light. Hm....
Vanessa Anne Hudgens is naked on the interweb . Also, I told you so. UPDATE: Holy f-bomb! Disney actually canned her . UPDATE Part II: Disney denies it . Although, clearly, they're not thrilled with 'Nessa right now.
