Before I woke up this morning, it would have never occurred to me to type the phrase “Holographic Tupac” into Google. Now, not only have I done just that, but that search yields this video: First response from the people I’ve shown it to has ranged from “whoaaaaaa” to “SHUT DOWN EVERYTHING, THIS IS TOO […]

Soviets Winning in “Flying Little Girl” Race
Now my Russian isn’t what it used to be—in fact, the only word I know is “nyet”—but this is what I think this Russian newscaster is saying: ROOSKIE NEWS ANCHOR: A man and a dog panicked today after stumbling upon a flying little girl. The man and dog were walking through the woods recently, when […]

Thomas Dolby Is Freaking Me Out
There are many strange items of note in this personalized video from Thomas Dolby. 1. Thomas Dolby is opening for James on Monday, April 9, at the Roseland. Hmm. This seems like an unlikely, but perhaps harmonious, pairing, like watching Troop Beverly Hills then Dead Alive.2. I could happily listen to Thomas Dolby say “chrome-encrusted […]
Chuck Palahniuk: “Faux-IKEA” Table Salesman
Today in furniture sales for Fight Club fanatics: Author Chuck Palahniuk is letting go of the only remaining copy of the (rather horrible… yet distinctive) ying-yang coffee table from Edward Norton’s character’s apartment (the other two having been destroyed on camera). It’s on sale for THREE FUCKING THOUSAND DOLLARS, however, it is being sold to […]
I Have No Idea What to Title This Blog Post Other Than “What the Fuck?”
Admittedly I don’t watch a lot of Fox News. Let me rephrase that… I don’t watch ANY Fox News unless it’s cut down into digestible tidbits on the YouTube. Maybe that’s why I’ve never seen or heard of this Fox News early morning show called Red Eye. Apparently it’s some sort of comedy roundtable that […]
This Is EXACTLY What SXSW Is Like
Unless you’re living in a bubble, or just don’t care about music, or like music pretty much but have an otherwise busy and full and rewarding life—then you already know SXSW is under way, with the music portion of the multi-pronged clusterfuck kicking off tomorrow. Hong Kong animators have taken it upon themselves to depict […]

“I don’t know how much you know about the rules of the Internet,” writes a “Savage Love” reader, “but we have one called Rule 34: if it exists there is porn of it. There are entire websites dedicated to this concept, and I frequent them as much for the lulz as for actual fappable material. […]
I Sweat With Richard Simmons
Not to get all travel diary on you, but I just came back from a trip to Los Angeles, and feel compelled to share with you the cheap thrill that is Richard Simmons’ aerobics class: Laurel Rose This was taken on Saturday afternoon by my friend Laurel right after we’d completed an hour and a […]
Ebichu the Sexually Protective Hamster
I ate at Tanuki last night—everything Tony said in his review is true, plus the service was really great, but I think my favorite part of the meal might’ve been the videos they were playing. (NSFW, I guess?) Oh wait, no, the kimchi-bacon stuffed croissants were my favorite part of the meal. But the hamster […]
The I, Anonymous Blog Quote o’ the Day!
RIPPED FROM TODAY’S (okay, maybe day-before-yesterday’s) HEADLINES! So that whole “getting busted for the naked chick tied up in your car” thing got a little more media coverage than you expected, huh? Your neighbors are pretty amused about that. You know, we’ve been tolerant of you and the constant outside nudity and the megaphone you […]
It Used to Be Illegal for Same-Sex Couples to Adopt in Florida
In fact, I believe it was still illegal for gay couples to adopt back when this straight 48-year-old millionaire adopted his 42-year-old girlfriend: The multimillionaire trust-fund heir adopted his 42-year-old girlfriend Heather Laruso Hutchins last fall, after being accused of drunk driving in a 2010 accident that left 23-year-old Scott Wilson dead. Goodman is being […]
