Bankers party like it's still 2006 -- with your money {WalletPop}
Oct 24th 2009 10:44AM Bankers are supposed to be rich if they make good, fair investments. The problem is they get the government to give them free money just because they were so blinded by their greed that they failed to invest wisely. There's no reason you or I should pay for that, but we are.
Passenger's bathroom dash causes panic on United flight {Gadling}
Sep 29th 2009 3:54PM This is absurd. Dumb flight attendants overreacting. Overreacting makes people feel like they're busy and doing their job.
Infiltrating North Korea Part 2: The challenges of being a tourist {Gadling}
Sep 12th 2009 3:22PM Boy, that's sure easy to say from the comfort of a first-world democracy.
Bud Light 'Fan Can' Brewing Up Trouble {Fanhouse - Kevin Blackistone}
Sep 8th 2009 12:55PM Screw this story. Quit babysitting adults. Let 'em drink. They're adults. We only treat them like children by turning beer into a taboo until they're 21, as if that's some magical age at which one can enjoy alcohol responsibly without making mistakes.
Will Bloody Texting PSA Get The Message To Teens? {ParentDish}
Aug 25th 2009 8:29PM Why do the people masquerading as journalists who write these articles insist on overusing the question of whether someone "went too far"? It's hackneyed and does nothing but provoke people to say, "why yes indeed, it 'goes too far'", whatever that means.
Valedictorian paid to shill movie during graduation speech {WalletPop}
Jul 30th 2009 1:21PM It's not just about her. Valedictorians often make that mistake, blathering on and on about ME, MY goals, MY life, MY struggles and sacrifices, and so forth, without linking all of it to the rest of their class. Here we have someone who deliberately said something weird just to score a few ducats when it had even less to do with the ceremony than even an ordinary self-absorbed speech would have. It's a scummy, lowlife thing to do.
Tim McGraw Ejects Another Rowdy Fan {The Boot}
Jul 29th 2009 12:12PM Hold on a minute- people are stomping all over one another here to defend McGraw when the article offers no clue as to just what the fan was even doing? All we know is that McGraw made some chivalrous-sounding remark, had a guy kicked out, and carried on with the show. We have no idea what went on.
Ashley Olsen Goes Goth in VMAN - Clap Your Hands and Say Yeah {Stylelist}
May 17th 2009 4:38PM It's crap. They're just stealing Anna Karina's old look and selling it to the kiddies who don't yet know a lot about popular culture beyond a couple of years ago.
The Hardest-Partying Colleges, According to Playboy {Asylum}
Apr 22nd 2009 7:58PM I think you're confusing "Hardest Partying" with "Academically Acclaimed".
The Hardest-Partying Colleges, According to Playboy {Asylum}
