Zach Galifianakis, along with Band of Horses, will be holding an auction of “bad art” in Manhattan on July 10th, 2007. Tickets are thirty bucks ($33.75 with tax), and are on sale now. Having seen Mr. Galifianakis perform a few times, I can say that it will undoubtedly be an interesting evening, and well worth [...]

The owners of Red, White and Bubbly, Park Slope’s wine destination, are trying to meet all of my needs - not just by fueling my alcoholism, but by fueling my love of all things Brooklyn.
That’s right! We, as a borough, now have our very own wine company…in a manner of speaking, I suppose. If [...]

Yes, I know I’m flagrantly biting Pizappas’ schtick, but I’d like to take a moment to discuss a new, fulfilling relationship I have in my life. I’ve fallen deeply in love with the Park Slope CSA. It nurtures my body with crazy, fresh, organic produce I would never be able to afford otherwise and it [...]

Nothing says “New York” to me like consumerism and touching multiculturalism.

Speaking of flightless monsters, I now have something else to have nightmares about. Five foot tall penguins.
Why didn’t we know about this terrifying penguin-incarnation earlier? Penguin expert, Julia Clarke explains, “we have so few relatively complete penguins from that period of penguin evolution.” Penguin, penguin, penguin.

This just in: Newsweek has posted an article about how dumb Americans are.
Yeah, yeah. I think the one thing we all definitively know is that we are, as a nation, borderline retarded.
While taking the poll myself (with the answers right below each question), I realized that I’m just as American (read: dumb) as the next [...]

King Hot Dog Takeru Kobayashi may be unable to compete in this year’s extravaganza July 4th Hot Dog Eating Competition!
Arthritis of the jaw has rendered him “all but paralyzed.”
In the face of the daily, brutal war that Kobayashi faces against stomach-stretching quantities of food, Kobayashi laments, ”My jaw refused to fight anymore … [it] has abandoned the frontline.”
With [...]

Live Free or Die Hard is coming onto screens not on Friday, but on Wednesday, thus calling for an advanced edition of Weekend at the Movies. It seems that this fourth installment in the Die Hard series doesn’t understand the basic principle of opening movies on Fridays, and has instead opted to release its movie [...]

Dear Jesus,
Please release us from the bonds of the attention whores, the celebutantes, and the wrongfully famous. We miss the newspaper.
Best wishes,

I know this debate has already been discussed on this site, but I’m really starting to get fed up with these two social networks (for the record, I’m completely refraining from mentioning Friendster, which my grandparents don’t even use anymore). This morning, when I came into my office, I had eight notices from Myspace and seven [...]
