TV. Food. Pop Culture.
I know this may be premature, but this new Human Giant-flavored ad campaign by Pepsi may already be my favorite of Super Bowl Sunday. I mean, it’s Will Arnett and scallops. How could that not be funny? Turns out this spot is one of several Pepsi produced and put up on YouTube. I’m not sure …

Well, I have finally sacrificed ten Facebook friends in pursuit of a free Angry Whopper from Burger King. You’ve all seen who I’ve cut. Now it’s time to reveal the final piece of the puzzle. Who could be more deserving of a sacrifice than Sherayay? The answer after the jump…
Sacrifice #9: It’s none other than Sherayay from The Real Housewives of Atlanta! And who better to go down in flames than the genius behind She By Sherayay? Well, actually, I can think of one more deserving person, but that won’t be revealed until tomorrow. I suppose I could tell you today, but that would …
We’re getting close to the end here. Today I sacrificed Teri (and a wax version of The Rock), which means I only have two more people to destroy. Who will they be? Stay tuned… In the meantime, BURN, TERI, BURN!!!!!

I’ve been seeing a lot of commercials for the Debbie Meyer Green Bags lately, and for those of you not in the know, it’s a product that purports to lengthen the freshness of produce by up to three weeks. The ads tend to crack me up, if only for the presence of Debbie Meyer, who’s …

Just under eight weeks ago, as part of a Hills promotional tie-in, I posted a contest imploring people to state their worthiness to win $25 of free Sonic fast food. I really didn’t expect much of a response, but I must have vastly overlooked the draw of free food and perhaps underestimated the quality of …
