We all know by now that it’s football season. At least, if you live in my house you know that it’s football season, becuase of the ESPN, and the fantasy football, and this year, the ringtones. Which means that we (I) wind up watching a lot more football than we … More »
When I was in college, I had two experiences with computer-generated roommate selection. The first was my freshman year, and her name was Fran. Fran was neat and clean, and used Bath and BodyWorks raspberry lotion every day, and made me feel bad about the fact that I would never … More »
Facebook is a place where we can share our true feelings and thoughts with all our friends and family. We can update when we’re mad, when we’re sad, when we’re in love or when we’re in hate. Even though no one really cares how we feel, they still have to read about it on their news feeds. Unfortunately for some, they haven’t yet discovered the privacy settings and don’t realize they are sharing their innermost, eloquent thoughts with the entire world. Via Openbook, we have gathered some of the most beautifully said words in social networking. … More »

According to Consumerist, there’s a trend going ’round where couples get married at Walmart. Well – it might not be a “trend,” so much as something that one couple did. Whatever. If this is a thing, I’m totally doing it at Target!
Think about it — you culd get everything you … More »
Over at Babble.com, there’s an article about whether or not dads should witness the birth of their kids — as in, watch them come out of their partner’s vagina. The writer begins by saying that she’s anti-her husband watching, but mostly because she has a concern that I imagine many … More »

It should be really easy to hate Elin Nordegren. She’s gorgeous, rich and not falling apart at all. I happen to like my celebrities to be of the trainwreck variety. We’ve been hearing for months that Nordegren went crazy when she found out about her husband’s whorish tendencies. I had great pictures in my head of an angry Barbie doll chasing her husband down the street with one of his beloved golf clubs. We all knew that she would get millions of dollars and settle down in a perfectly blissful life. That crazy lady with the nine iron – that was my kind of celebrity. But now, she’s calm and grieving, sharing her story with People magazine. I expected to flip through the interview, without really reading it, and say, “Poor, poor rich girl. It sucks to be you. Glad that’s over…”
Except if you actually read Elin’s interview, she seems like a very difficult person to dislike. … More »
I’m obsessed with Jersey Shore. I love bad TV, but Jersey Shore has gone from bad TV to extraordinary TV. I don’t know if the second season will be as good as the first, but here are a couple of reasons why this is my favorite show on TV right now.
•It’s hilarious. Plain and simple. Angelina wearing a black dress and Pauly cracking jokes about how last year she lugged all her stuff in trash bags since she didn’t have suitcases? Brilliant. Pretty much everything out of Snooki’s mouth? Funny. The best part is that many of the funny lines are things they just say casually and don’t even laugh at. Last season, when Pauly was trying to break things off with an Israeli girl who couldn’t take a hint, he yelled “You stalked my entire life!” It wasn’t supposed to be a joke, and that made it even funnier. Even mundane scenes are entertaining – Pauly and JWoww had an entire conversation about sales tax, and I was riveted. I don’t even know if Mad Men could pull that off. … More »
