Best Lost Theory I've Read Anywhere →
Spoiler alert, pretty much.
Breakthrough Claimed in Male Contraceptives →
But will it make my boobs bigger?
Beyond Robson Vampire Weekend Review →
After an entire day of throwing up, I’d be completely lying if I said I almost threw up from reading this. I don’t have the energy to throw up anymore. But if you do, here you go! Guaranteed puke! While no blood was actually shed at the Vampire Weekend show at Richard’s on Thursday night, I have the pulled neck and bruises to prove I was front and centre for the best show...
The Hillary Deathwatch →
Classic MSM propaganda. As one ardent Hillary supporter puts it: Senator Clinton’s biggest challenge in this campaign has not been Senator Obama. It has been the extremely negative media! cameronr: Don’t get too excited, Chuck. It’s not like the P. Swayze deathwatch.
I’m not one to complain about free shit, and I’m a staunch opponent of almost all kinds of rock journalism, but I am just goin to say that the Vampire Weekend show last night was complete horse apples. I lasted three songs. The anger I felt… So strong.
elainecorden: also, I wrote an article for the Tyee today that openly compared Sufjan Stevens to James Taylor and they didn't edit it out. Yay!
me: thats because they are too old to know who either guy is.
Club where girl, 12, stripped will keep license →
My friends, we are living in the wrong country.
Anyone out there get my Gallant Gallstone reference today??
Sorry... Politics
Cam, I know, we said we were done with politics, but I have a boring job with nothing to do, so what do you want from me! Anyways, the thing I’m always most confused and curious about is how people on the other side of an argument — specifically a political one — convince themselves that their crazy opinions are actually right. This being the internet, it’s always been hard...
Wedding Drama!
tracy.hermann: i feel badly that pete got his out before josh and josh's is before petes
me: this is total bullshit. pete is like the hillary clinton of our friends group
tracy.hermann: hahahahahahaha
A Little Tenderness
Today Perez points us towards this awesome article on John Hughes from the LA Times. This article inspired me to turn back the clocks and re-read the first article I ever wrote for Only, entitled Pretty Vacant in Pink. Pretty in Pink has always been one of my favorite films, and now that I’ve been at Only for a few years, my fear that I’d never be able to best this first piece have...
This is Why I'm Hot →
No internet for a week: Harder than no booze for a month? Probably not.
Intrigue
Me: i just tumbld our entire convo
sucks to be you!
Elainecorden: chuck!
Me: JOKES!!!
hahaha
Elainecorden: jesus. I would not be your friend if you did that
sorry, that was harsh, but seriously, you gave me a panic!

UPDATE: Let’s hope the guy had another toilet.
Oh Snap! Sinbad vs. Hillary!
Sinbad is striking back! From the article: In her Iowa stump speech, Clinton also said, “We used to say in the White House that if a place is too dangerous, too small or too poor, send the First Lady.” Say what? As Sinbad put it: “What kind of president would say, ‘Hey, man, I can’t go ‘cause I might get shot so I’m going to send my wife…oh, and...
Dream Last Night
I dreamed that Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes were on a vacation with me and my family in Mexico or something, and then I walked in on Tom getting a BJ from some 12-year-old girl. And then I made Tom tell Katie everything. Apparently I was yelling “Tell her, Tom!” in my sleep.
Women in Jeans Can't Get Raped →
A very sentimental end to this rape story: Driving instructors in Italy have a reputation, deserved or undeserved, for molesting young female pupils, and the case appeared at first to be a familiar story of sexual assault on a lonely country road. It almost sounds romantic.

skeetonmischa: I love you, Larry David. Beat me to it!
“Imagine in 2000, or 2004, that George W. Bush faced a primary fight that came...”
– Jonathan Chait explaining how Hillary is fucking Obama’s chances in November with her expected push in Pennsylvania.
“Clinton can’t compete on personality, but a knife fight is her only real hope of...”
– Brooks
Fugayzi
Best non-existent concept for a coverband ever.
I just went over to Slate’s Delegate Counter and had some reassuring fun with it. Even if Hillary wins every forthcoming primary by 60%, an unlikely scenario to say the least, she doesn’t catch up to Obama with pledged delegates.
NAFTAgate Explained →
Hopefully this quote from the article, which is being reported as the initial seed that somehow started the whole Obama double-talk on NAFTA thing, will get some scrutiny. “He said someone from (Hillary) Clinton’s campaign is telling the embassy to take it with a grain of salt… That someone called us and told us not to worry.”

This is the best: Janet Jackson released a new album last week, and it deubted on top of the Billboard charts with a hilariously low 181,000 copies sold. Seeing as how artists make like a dollar per album they sell, Janet won’t be buying another platinum nipple ring any time soon. Compare that to Trent Rezonor. He just released his new Nine Inch Nails album for free, and sold a mere 2,500...
