Man sues Axe Bodyspray, as unable to get girl →
How I missed this I have no idea. I love this pull quote:
…his bai (maid) beat him with a broom when he tried to impress her by appearing naked in front of her after applying all the Axe products.
The CW’s ‘OMG Moment of the Year’ from One Tree Hill. Aziz says:
I can’t recommend enough that you take 30 seconds and watch this. This is maybe the hardest I laughed since I saw the end of the midriff episode of Curb.
True enough, it is amazing.

Year End Lists
Though I haven’t been a real rock critic for years (if I ever was), this was the year that I finally shed the last vestiges of it. From 1998 to 2009 that was how I made my living. I never liked it. It’s not a world where thoughtfulness is particularly prized; instead the game is reacting stronger and faster (better is irrelevant) than everyone else. It’s a game that serves the critics...

How about this weather we're having?
After taking a year off to spend some time with his family, father winter made his triumphant return to DC this week by incapacitating the area for a couple days.
Lets take a step back. Earlier this week weatherman and meteorologists all around the area were calling for snow the weekend of the 18th. How much snow depended on how close we got to the weekend, until eventually, Friday’s...

– Leslie Lillo on soreness.
While rendering this morning, I was reading the internet to pass the time, when I came across this post on Videogum about a new TLC show coming soon: Little Chocolatiers Its about two little people, a couple in fact (gee, don’t they have a show or two like that already?), who happen to be chocolatiers and their struggles to make chocolate while being little people. I guess. Here’s the...

D.C. Council votes 11 to 2 to legalize same-sex...
Before the bill goes to Mayor Adrian M. Fenty (D) for signing, it still must survive a 30-day congressional review period. To block the legislation, the Democratic-controlled House and Senate and President Obama would have to sign off on a disapproval resolution within 30 legislative days, which advocates say is not likely.

You Can Make It Up: Hanukkah On The Jersey Shore →
Pauly started reading a Chinese take-out menu out loud. “What are you doing?” Angelina asked him.
“I’m reading the story of Hanukkah.”
“It’s beatiful,” she said. Pauly shrugged.
The festive celebration ended with a game of strip dreidel.

SAL: Blasted map! ENID: Pull over and ask that hitchhiker for directions. SAL: Where? ENID: Over there. See her? The young woman in the bikini? She’s holding a cardboard sign that reads, “Looking for a 3-Way!” SAL: What the hell does that mean? ENID: It’s probably the slang. SAL: Whatever it means, she probably has no idea where Route 116 is. Forget it. Why ask for trouble?
