For a minute there I was stressing about a potential computer purchase. What kind should I get? Should I get a better one? I was at the store tonight looking at laptops. Would have written a bunch about that, but then I saw blood on my foot. Blood on my foot, where did it come from? My foot’s not bleeding. Where else could be bleeding? I can’t find anywhere else bleeding. Then I...

RICK ROSS
Five things about him: Rick Ross is a fat man, and on each of his fat man breasts is a tattoo of a US president (Lincoln and Washington). In fact, Rick Ross has tons of tattoos (see above)! Sameer may get a tattoo. I have one. Rick Ross owns the illest chain in the gang (see above). During the song “Hustlin’” Rick Ross reveals that he hasn’t driven his car for a...

Creed is totally underrated. - By Jonah Weiner -... →
Pretty much: “Saying Creed is bad is like saying Journey is bad, guys. And you wouldn’t—… No!, No but Journey was soo good! They were totally rocking!” Maybe next time dude. Though last time was also a flop. And. Also.

– Former KISS Drummer - Men Get Breast Cancer Too - NYTimes.com All the Peter Criss quotes in this piece are great. “Whoever invented (mammogram machines) had to do it in the medieval days,” he said, adding that it was nearly impossible to fit a small male breast into the machine. ...

Found this doing research for that last Beckham post.  At first thought, ‘why the hell would this be a product,’ but I had to kick myself pretty quick. ‘Of course this is a product, Phillip, stop being an idiot.’ Who wouldn’t want safe color for the hair down there that covers gray and brightens to match your glorious locks above. But! Check out the bottom: ...

There was a Washington Post at our doorstep this morning (the paper kind). I feel like someone’s playing a practical joke on us, trying to make us look like we don’t understand how news is disseminated nowadays (via reddit, of course).

Got lost on the way to work last night. ‘But Phillip, don’t you go to work every night?’ I do, but when you miss your exit everything becomes very unfamiliar very quick. Was daydreaming about Pygmalion.

Rough night at work. But! I put a handfull of funsized Milky Way in the freezer before I left last night and there’s still some beer left. Also I gotta good book I’m reading. So things have stopped getting worse.

Less underwhelming than the announcement of the winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature (to be fair I’ve never read any of her stuff), were the stories leading up to the announcement. Here’s some good stuff from the AP’s. This year, Danish literature professor Anne-Marie Mai revealed she had nominated Bob Dylan because she was upset about Englund’s predecessor’s...
