WatchI have a non gay mancrush on Tom Ford. I want my home and my wardrobe to look straight out of his Milan store.
Help me understand: "China"
jakoblodwick:
Can you explain the political situation in China in three sentences?
Substitute China with Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, North Korea, etc. and I bet this is how George W starts all his briefings.
The Truth About the Spinning Dancer
A popular e-mail going around features a spinning dancer that has been touted as a test of whether you are right-brained and creative or left-brained and logical. If you see the dancer spinning clockwise, the story goes, you are using more of your right brain, and if you see it moving counterclockwise, you are more of a left-brained person.
Clockwise or counterclockwise?But while the dancer...

Agreed… The word “douchebag” has gone the way of such classics as “NOT” or “totally radical” or “gnarly” or “jiggy”. In otherwards, only douchebags still use it. rickyv: I’m shorting the word “douche.” After a strong resurgence in 2005 and showing strong staying power through 2007, its day has come. Lately most of the people I’ve...

And the ad’s purpose has been served. I don’t understand why these so-called advocates of decency continue to go on television and raise a big stink about these sort of ads. All it does is serve to provide even MORE exposure for the very thing that they are rallying against. In that news clip I saw more sex (video images rather than still posters) and I heard/saw OMFG more times...

oh, just some predictions from the first Earth Day...
I have always believed that many of the current predictions about the effect and causes of global warming are overblow. I do, however, still believe that minimum impact production and consumption naturally makes sense. dihard: “By 1985…air pollution will have reduced the amount of sunlight reaching the earth by one half” – Life magazine, January 1970 “By the year 2000…the entire world, with...

Miley Cyrus
The fact that “Miley Cyrus Bra” is one of the top 10 searches on google trends is slightly disturbing. She is 15 YEARS OLD!! I am never having daughters.
So here's a question for you ...
DO IT!!! juliaallison: I have a dilemma. A woman has taken to obsessively writing about me (and my girl friends) on a certain blog. This woman checks my tumblr, my flickr, my vimeo, my twitter, the postings about me on gawker & valleywag, as well as all of the things my girl friends post, and spends a good portion of her time (time which could otherwise be spent engaged in fun and useful...

Song Lyrics of the day- Yeasayer 2080
I can’t sleep when I think about the times we’re living in I can’t sleep when I think about the future I was born into Outsiders dressed up like Sunday morning With no Berlin wall what the hell you gonna do It’s a New Year I’m glad to be here It’s a fresh spring So let’s sing In 2080 I’ll surely be dead So don’t look ahead Never look...

Winding down.
So it goes. baugher: Internet, our time together is coming to a close. What started as an experiment on a cold January night has morphed into a most excellent and entertaining writing adventure: what would happen if you parsed a pathological narcissist (and later, her Handmaidens) and turned her mirror on her (and them)? Would she (or they) ever shut up and listen to objective criticism, or...

I hate how all the photos I take with my Blackberry Curve suck!! Here I am trying to capture the fact that we live in the matrix. On a cold, cloudy sunless day- Agent Smith was on the Metro North, wearing those damn sunglasses of his.

The underlying philosophy in Marco’s post is that the majority of American’s have mediocre taste at best and Starbucks shouldnt pander to those taste. Jakob seems to agree with this view but then he says stuff like:You let people exercise their own judgment and they come up with better solutions than central government planners. How could it be any other way? You can’t have...

I’ve never used the follow function on tumblr because I had such a problem with this. I rss all the tumblrs that I follow into google reader and scan through all the posts that way. If you are into the “look how many people are following me” thing, you can probably go ahead and add 1. allgrownsup: Holy shit this is fantastic!
What are the odds?
I have never been very good at math, which is why I chose law school over business school. I am curious as to: 1) the mathematical odds that the words that I am reading on my computer are being uttered on the television at the same time. 2) the mathematical odds of seeing a television programme (Frasier) 5 times in my life, and 2 of those times were the same episode. Just to complicate it,...

I feel like I’ve been bamboozled so much by the media lately…or let me rephrase- the media has been bamboozled so much lately- that my first instinct is to doubt the veracity of this story.
