Deconstructing the Amorous & Debaucherous Quests of Nightlife

You work all week, endure endless douchebaggery and idiocy, and restrain your nocturnal vivacity until the calendar reads Friday—only to be rewarded with the vapid, ravenous gauntlet of bar-light romance. These spurious, oft-desperation laden affairs commence and end within the warzone of nightclub communication. This mine-ridden field of conversation suffers from drunken logic, noise pollution, and toxic levels of loneliness—oftentimes resulting in commiserations of half-truths, flattery, and general, coquettish pandering. The subsequent hangover of disappointment, regret, and cavalier nostalgia creates a cycle of despair and frustration that continually leaves the lonesome adventurer jaded.

New PSA Wants You To Know Old People Still Do It

Plant your eyes on this one all you young whippersnappers. As much as we all want to believe that seniors sit around knitting and playing bingo, the harsh reality is that they're totally still doing it AND getting STD's! According to Safesex4seniors.org, STD occurrence among senior citizens has risen a staggering 71% in the past 5 years. But hold the collective "LOL's" and "Ewww's" because we're not done yet. The site also includes an FAQ section with guides like "Flirting with Fantasy: Toying with Toys," "10 Tips for Hot Solo Sex," and perhaps our favorite, "Dialing Up Desire: From “Not Tonight” to “Hot Tonight." What!? Say it isn't so, grandma! So much for our delusions of cute, helpless, innocent seniors!

Happy Friday!

[VIDEO] Sh!T Single Girls Say

There's been a recent spawn of hysterical videos co-produced by Juliette Lewis titled "Shit Girls Say." The videos feature a guy dressed as a girl popping off typical "girl" comments and phrases. One of our favorite scenes spotlights the phenomenon of how girls react when they see each other by running towards one another yelling "aaahh!" and embracing and jumping around. (Yes, we're all guilty of it.)

The latest video to pop up, which appears to be unrelated to the original "Shit Girls Say" series is "Shit Single Girls Say." And we must SAY, it definitely had us laughing (mostly at ourselves). Enjoy.

How to Survive Holidays with the In-Laws

My poor girlfriend. She’s an only child. Her Thanksgiving dinners consisted of 3 people at a table. She’s not ready for this.

Oh, well. The walk in the park had to end sometime.

In T-minus two weeks, my sweet, loving girlfriend will innocently wander into the lion’s den: the writhing, carnivorous mass of 45 people called the Mielke family. Parents, siblings, 13 aunts and uncles, 15 cousins. If you count all the second cousins, there will be 5 sets of twins at our Christmas party.

Gawker Completely Annihilates Wall Street Guys

It's been a tough week for Wall Street guys. As if the Occupy Wall Street protests for the last couple months haven't been enough, Gawker dropped three hilarious items this week. One, a letter from an investment banker who went on one date with a woman and proceeded to write her an over-analyzed 1600 word email about how "she led him on" (but should probably go out with him again). Second, a story on Tuesday of another investment banker from JP Morgan Chase, who stalked his mistress all the way to London, feigned her sister's death, fake-fainted in front of her at the airport, claimed to be Israeli intelligence to see her, and perhaps the most bizarre, stole candle sticks from her apartment. (Alrighty, then?)
