Scenes From E3 2010 (Or, Embarrassing Pictures of Me Dancing)

Generally every year, I let my not-so-inner geek out by visiting E3, the video game industry’s biggest convention of the year. It’s a chance to play games that won’t be on the market for months or years, try out new gadgets, and more or less remind yourself that you’re not in fact the most socially …

THE CITY PHOTOCAP: Whitney Goes To Miami, Witnesses Incompetence

It seems like every season of The City features Whitney heading down to Miami for some silly adventure. First time around, she and Jay got all romantic in the sun. Second time around, she and Roxy rung up a giant hotel tab. And third time around was this week when Whit and Rox again flew …

Sex Patents!

The Committee Ep 1: Bad Dog w/ Alison Brie & Rich Sommer from drew_pearce Take one (or really two) actors from Mad Men, add in someone from Community (or not if you count Alison Brie as one of the Mad Men actors), and throw in a Desperate Housewives scene stealer, and you have the makings …

HILLS PHOTOCAP: When Idiots Attack

I’m starting to feel a little sad about something. Out of nowhere, The Hills has become good again, but alas, it’s getting the ax. Such a sad fate for a once mighty show. To be fair, it’s downfall was its own doing. The show began to focus too much on the dolts and douchebags of …

REAL HOUSEWIVES REUNION PHOTOCAP: Yup, They’re Still Crazy!

Bravo aired the second part of the explosive Real Housewives of New York City reunion, and it was just as bonkers as the first installment. Jill seemed significantly more contrite this time around, perhaps too contrite, and amusingly, LuAnn brought up the whole “snake” bit again. Alex, meanwhile, seemed totally derailed as she appeared to …

REAL HOUSEWIVES PHOTOCAP: Read Danielle’s Lips — She’s Not Crazy

The loathsome women of The Real Housewives of New Jersey were back last night, and honestly, I’m starting to wish they’d all follow Dina’s lead and exit the show. They’re either boring (Jacqueline), crazy (Danielle), or idiotic (Teresa), and lately, I’m starting to think that none of them (with the exception of Dina) are really …

ADVENTURES IN DOMESTICITY: Whole Wheat Bread Edition

About a week and a half ago, I posted about housewares I intended to buy with a gift certificate for CSN Stores (the last of the order arrived today; reviews shall be forthcoming). I implored the readers to weigh in with their opinions on the matter, and at one point, the idea of an ice …

The Ten Worst Husbands, Boyfriends, and Significant Others from ‘The Real Housewives’

Not too long ago, I published my lists of the ten best and worst women from the Real Housewives franchise. The rankings seemed to be well-received; so here I am with another go at it, this time aimed at the guys. I’ve compiled a list of the worst husbands and boyfriends from the Housewives franchise, …

Shochu? I Hardly Even Know You!

About a month ago, the people behind Haamonii shochu emailed me about reviewing their product, and given that I’m sort of a sucker for free booze, I told them I was more than happy to give it a whirl. A few days later, a box arrived at my doorstep, and ta-da! Free booze! Can’t go …
