Still stinging over the disappointment that is X-men: Origins? Wishing Hollywood was a person you could beat senselessly for dropping the ball?

My boyfriend is a domestic dud. He enjoys leaving half-eaten plates of food in the bedroom because “it gives the ants something to eat.” He refuses to make the bed because “I’m just going to get back in it.” (Still haven’t been able to dispute that one) Looking at the washing machine to him is [...]
PROOF: Why Underage Girls Should Never Be Left Alone With Webcams

It’s not because we’re sick of “To Catch a Predator”. It’s not because people like Daniel Lesiewicz, who’s now in jail for using spyware to hack webcams and watch teenage girls getting dressed. It’s not even because these girls can be Googled in ten years when they are looking for a job and have [...]

I have a friend who is trying to convince me to wear a surgical mask before I leave the house, just in case.

The spring break destination for geeks. The haven for nerds. The hot spot for the intellectually advanced. The 23rd annual South by SouthWest (SXSW) came and went through downtown Austin, TX again this year. The festival - er, I mean conference- is infamous for it’s spot-on ability to predict trends.

Behind the computer, you are king. Fearless, confident, powerful. You’ve mastered World of Warcraft, can recite every Star Wars Movie backwards, and are fluent in Klingon. What’s not to love? But you go dipping into the population for a Saturday night to get a few drinks or see if there are any women worth desiring [...]

It’s Friday afternoon, around 4:15. The longest hour of the week is here. Plus I took a late lunch, and Chili’s is sitting so heavy in me I can feel the food-induced coma coming on even as I type. I’m pretty much done working for the day, just waiting for my boss to approve my [...]

The clock is ticking. Sweat is dripping down your forehead. The sound of your heart beating echoes through your ears as you try desperately to focus. “Don’t get caught, this is illegal.” the angel on your shoulder whispers. A mess of wires lay before you.

Lyke, Oh Em Gee, guys. What happened to Daryl Strawberry enjoying his nose candy, or even Kobe getting off on pre-pubescent girls?! Those are the role models my entire generation idolized. But no, not anymore. Instead of the incredibly illegal and immoral activities that should have resulted in serious jail time or ruined careers, the [...]
