After viewing Inception, I felt proud of Leonardo DiCaprio for breaking out of the stale typecasting (see: Romeo and Juliet, Titanic) most actors get trapped in during their young-and-attractive years. Then, last night, I rented Shutter Island. It appears Mr. DiCaprio has been sucked into a new and unusual form of typecasting, playing roles where: his [...]

Magicans, Serial Killers, and Homosexual Males
Posted in Bi-fortnightly Blogs, tagged Culture on January 3, 2010 | 4 Comments »
I have a guy friend whose house I occasionally go over to*. After our last visit, I have come to the conclusion that he is either gay, a closeted magician, or a serial killer. This conclusion arises from the simple “Law of Flowery Hand Gestures,” which states that, in a 3-circle venn diagram between homosexual [...]
For My Inner Fourth Grader

I think I’m in love. Seriously. With Craigslist. In preliminary research today, I discovered yet another non-sexual slave (and of course, many more who would prefer the more sexual arrangement). On top of slave-boy (tagline: “The catch is you must order me to do things, never ask me”), I found a listing for a different man [...]
The More the Merrier, But the Merrier Are Mum

So I’ve been working on an article on non-monogamous relationship models. (Yes, this is just as interesting as it sounds. Perhaps more so.) Everything has been going exceptionally smoothly–I was able to speak with a licensed psychologist and even the president of the World Polyamory Association! However, acquiring anecdotes/quotes from individuals who have an “open [...]

The sign that a girl has become a lady: she carries tissues in her purse. The sign that a lady has become a mother: she carries used tissues in her purse.
“The childeren LOVE it!”

I just love moments like these: Checking buyer feedback for an e-bay seller that auctions ONLY lingerie; discover testimonial: “Great product, the children LOVE it!” Either this is one of those black-market-100%-positive-feedback-e-bay-accounts, or my concern for future generations just shot up a notch.
Why I choose Facebook over Craigslist

You can get what you want, when you want, from people you trust enough to accept as “friends.” A list of things that I, personally, have sold/bought/given/received through Facebook: 1 small stainless steel-thermos cup 2 strong young men for one afternoon of strenuous work 1 late-Renaissance empire-waist gown 2 naked people (one man, one women; attractive) 2 [...]
The Squiggle Pen

Mounting personal accounts reveal the squiggle pen to be perhaps the least credited and yet most instrumental tool in the sexual development of American children.
Porn, Greeting Cards, and Spirituality

The other day I was informed of the existence of “hard-core Christian hippies.” This demographic consists of [sometimes born-again] bible thumpers, who attend events such as The Rainbow Gathering, believe they are incarnations of angels, and smoke pot and/or take other hallucinogenic drugs in the name of Christ the Lord. This confirms my suspicions that [...]
Shia LaBeouf: Dog Vagina
Posted in Bi-fortnightly Blogs, tagged Culture on July 23, 2009 | 5 Comments »
OK. So a couple days ago I had the realization that Shia LaBeouf’s name reminds me of vagina. But it also reminds me of dog. I’d say it reminds me of dog vagina, but that’s not quite accurate. It’s more that it reminds me of a dog (really feeling poodle here) mixed with a vagina. [...]
