• How gay is Superman? Plenty, apparently. I have to say my IGM is in total agreement with this assement of the "cryptohomosexual" references made in the poster. You think those details aren't deliberate? This is DESIGN, people!


• Ok, I'm into nutrition but not even I want plates that spout nutritional statistics at me. What kind of way is this to live, people?


• Personally, I can't wait to see the Williamsburgers and the Park Slopicans rumble. They all suck. Live in Manhattan, people.


• Kiva lets you donate to low-income entrepreneur in the developing world. Sadly, I immediately thought of my various friends who are struggling to maintain their businesses here in the developed world. Help make a difference, people.


• Dude, I wish they had mp3s of the Eurovision Song Contest. Any road that ABBA has walked is sacred. Embrace the cheese, people!


• Brilliant. I laughed aloud, and several times. How hard ass is Yul Brynner!?! I have never been motivated to watch the source film (how'd that happen, christian hippie parents??), but I wish 10 Things I Hate About Commandements were a real movie. And because when this brilliance is finished, you know you'll want it, here it is: Must Love Jaws. Er, people.


• I think if I were 80 I'd get a Do Not Resuscitate tattoo too. Actually, no I wouldn't, but I admire this woman for making the choice. I just can't help wonder if she'll regret it when she accidentally chokes on a chicken nugget or something and heaves towards her death realizing that she royally screwed herself with the body art. I dunno, people. I just dunno.


• My GOD. I think the Clerks 2 trailer is actually real. Rosario, what are you doing?!?! Of course I thought the first Clerks was great (don't get me started on that crap cartoon, though), but considering that Kevin Smith hasn't managed to make a decent film since things don't bode well. The beauty of Jay and Silent Bob was that they were given to us in small doses—oo much of them and it all goes to hell! Come on! Learn the lesson already, Kev! And stop working with Affleck. The people have had quite enough of him.
