Are Bane Boxer Briefs Cooler Than Batman Briefs? Probably, Yeah

Jackie Mancini — Mon, 29 Apr 2013 17:00:45 +0000

As resident babe, allow me to first give you a little inside scoop on men’s underwear: Most times, “funny” novelty drawers are not a good strategy. Accidental first-date sex excluded (I forgive you, dude from a year ago who was wearing happy face boxers) you can usually tell a lot about a man by the [...]

A Review of Taco Bell's Cool Ranch Doritos Locos Tacos

Chris Illuminati — Fri, 08 Mar 2013 18:32:37 +0000

Taco Bell has been an integral block of my food pyramid for almost two decades. Here is where things get a little odd though -- rarely do I stray from the regular. In the beginning the order was always the same -- three Soft Taco Supremes and three regular crunchy tacos -- with an occasional Grilled Stuft Burrito with beef. Boring but always delivered.

Winter’s great and all, but enough is enough. It’s time for Spring already. (Maybe just one or two more shots of Lindsey Vonn in that racing suit, but then that’s it.)

Valentine's Day Gift Ideas For Babes, From a Babe

Jackie Mancini — Fri, 08 Feb 2013 19:00:58 +0000

Alright dudes, you have one more shopping weekend to not screw this up. Let’s talk. Valentine’s Day is kind of dumb, right? Hopefully my mother isn’t reading this (or really anything I write on here, ever) because my parents got married on February 14th — they are saps. Truth is, a lot of people are [...]

'Sound City' – Movie Review

Jeff Giles — Mon, 04 Feb 2013 17:21:31 +0000

For anyone who grew up wanting to make music during the first four and a half decades of the rock era, it’s hard to overestimate the importance and mystique of the recording studio. Sure, the amateur musician could invest in varying degrees of home equipment, but if you really wanted to get serious work done, [...]

What 'Point Break' Taught Us About Being Men — Life Lessons

Carl Pettit — Sat, 21 Jul 2012 16:15:19 +0000

“100% pure adrenaline!” – Bodhi (Patrick Swayze) ‘Point Break,’ Kathryn Bigelow’s seminal surfer and bank robber movie, is totally awesome.
