Vox Day, whom I know I should just ignore, has managed to get mentioned favorably by my favorite anti-feminist’s spunky sidekick, Mrs. Alexandra.
Mrs. Alexandra doesn’t have as much time for the internets as one would think a blogger would, so it’s probable that she didn’t travel all the way to Vox’s personal blog and wallow […]

Look out, it’s a mash-up!
[Actually, it’s two of them.]
For several months I’ve been obsessed with downloading mash-ups from folks like Party Ben, Matt Hite, DJ Earworm, and DJ John. This weekend, I finally decided to download the trial version of Acid Pro 6 and figure out how all teh kIdz these days are […]

My roommate just brought an X-Box 360 home. It is one sexy box. And I mean sexy. The damn thing is actually vaugely shaped like a woman’s torso. I suspect one of those little doors actually hides a hole you can masturbate in.

Upon hearing my “thing looks like a disembodied female torso” theory, I was roundly shouted down and decleared to be crazy. Then, without missing a beat, boyfriend observes: ‘people seem to like to stand it on it’s side like that. I haven’t seen many people lay it flat.’ Roommate then declared that you could make it look less girly by getting the camouflage one, and decided to completely miss the point when I said that a woman in a cammo bathing suit is still a woman.

Remember David Zinczenko? He’s the star quarterback of Men’s Health and Yahoo’s resident expert on dudery. He’s also one of my favorite whipping boys, due mostly to:
1) his appalling lack of basic congitive functions, and
2) his sincere desire to pretend like all of us must be wired that way.
His latest embarrassment comes in […]

Because it looks like it _can_ wreak cancer havoc across the gender divide:

Oral sex has been linked to throat cancer in a new study by the New England Journal of Medicine.

Human papillomavirus (HPV), which can be transmitted during oral sex, is the main cause of oropharyngeal (throat) cancer, researchers found. The study is the first to prove the link.

Man or woman, it turns out that if you’ve put your mouth on 6+ sets of genitals that aren’t your own, you’ve got a notably higher chance of acquiring oral cancer. Fortunately, it’s still not _that_ likely:

“People should be reassured that oropharyngeal cancer is relatively uncommon, and the overwhelming majority of people with an oral HPV infection probably will not get throat cancer,” said Gillison.

It’s a poorly kept secret that the easiest way to distract the Patriarchy is to flash some cleavage. Unfortunately, that method isn’t entirely foolproof.
In Chicago, an all-female legal firm rocked the moral foundation of the universe by placing this billboard above a happening singles bar area:

Normally, advertising featuring a gravity-defying rack like […]

Hey kids, remember when we talked about the right to privacy?
Yeah, I’m kinda wishing that was more concrete right now, and not because I could use a recreational abortion.

Verizon is seeking to have a lawsuit filed against it for allegedly illegally helping the government eavesdrop on its customers and data mine their call records dismissed. […]

From the comments at Twisty’s place, a crotchety old man says things were better back before women were people.
British TV standards are deteriorating because the BBC is “run by women”, astronomer Sir Patrick Moore has said.
The Sky at Night host also described female newsreaders as “jokey” and called for separate channels to cater for the […]

Ummm-um-um-um-um! You can’t sell a product with a naughty name in this country or else you get in big trubs with our dictatorial overlords. Just ask the makers of the energy drink name “Cocaine,” who have decided to temporarily halt production of the brand after receiving “threats” from the FDA.

Cocaine […]

Terrorists could strike again at any moment — you don’t, nay, CAN’T know when it’ll happen again.
We were caught completely unawares by the villainy on 9/11… except for those memos floating around indicating plane-based attacks by al-Qaeda were imminent. Oh, and those briefings in which certain a “high level” government official […]

Aww. America’s Official Cranky Old FussbudgetTM waddled out onto his lawn to make the peace with the neighborhood kids causing all that digital ruckus with their interwebs.
An audience of far younger and far more liberal Google employees sparred politely with Republican presidential candidate John McCain, who praised the mostly 20-somethings Friday as “the future […]

The Bush Adminstration continues its effort to make 1984 a reality:
Retroactive immunity from prosecution is a beautiful thing if you’re a major telecommunications provider in the US, and phone companies are about to receive it if the Bush administration gets its way…
The issue of whether any of this behavior was legal is not important. The […]
