Math is hard. Scaring people is easy.

OK, I admit it - I think like a geek, and I think this is a hilarious cartoon - Wifi routers: Silent, blinking DEATH? Check it out.

Damn you, courier!


I can't believe this - Slate did an interview where it asked a bunch of author-y types, and people that write, what font they compose in & what font was their favorite. A majority said that courier was their favorite font! Personally, I'm not a big fan, I'm still too used to courier meaning that there's a problem with the font.

Uhmmm, what?


Check out this site - I don't know what they're saying, but supposedly, the photos are original photoshoot photos, and the other one is the photoshopped version. You know, somehow it makes me feel a little better that alotta time is spent in photoshop trying to make celebs look great. If they hopped outta bed and looked perfect, well, that would be a little hard to take, right?

"That shirt would look better on my floor."

Those clever folks over at nerve.com have started this pickupedia - a wikipedia for pickuplines. It's pretty funny.

" You must be a parking ticket... Cuz, you have FINE written all over you"

"Did you just fart? 'Cause you blew me away."

"Are you wearing Jalepeno undies, 'cause your ass is hot."

"Hersheys makes thousands of kisses a day, all I'm asking for is just one."

Ace has got yer back...


"Golly, Ace, what's the best date movie around?"

Check out this list for the 50 Best Date movies. I dunno, I just can't agree with Nerve - I mean, really, Poltergeist?

I'd have to say I agree with the Triplets of Bellville, it's a good movie to break the ice with, but c'mon - What's eating Gilbert Grape? You've gotta know the person a little longer before you subject them to that.

My number one date movie? Office Space. You know you've got a winner when they laugh harder than you do.

Early on, I like to watch some incomprehensible foreign movie, like Delicatessen, just to see how they react. A long movie in French about cannibalism? Sounds like great fun!

Is the internet still cool?

Here's a list of the 10 cool sites we miss.

A T-shirt sez how many words?



Check out the evolution of the ironic T-shirt - pretty funny, but at the same time, it makes me want to quit wearing those ts that I think are cool, but it turns out they may not be...

Fifty is the new 30...



It's Helvetica's birthday today - 50 years young. And scads of lovers and haters.

Why don't people think first?



What's wrong with this picture? Why don't people like glue - especially when the point is not to have holes... via

Onions make me cry... with laughter


I really like the Onion - here's one of the latest - "Pizza Hut's New Pizza Lover's Pizza Topped with Smaller Pizzas"

Even better is another story in the issue - CBS to release it's own version of NBC's "The Office." (starring David Spade... otherwise known as how to make a good show bad) - or "Extra Slanty Italics Introduced for Extremely IMportant Words"

T-Shirts are awesome...

Here's this really cool vid where all the animation happens on t-shirts. Hmmm, that doesn't sound as neat as it really is, but it is...
