Customer reviews of Taco Bell Microwavable Home...
“I absolutely loved these meals. They actually filled me up at lunch. Until I got a bad batch of the product. I recently opened one up for lunch to find little worms crawling in and out of the food. I would be careful before eating one of these again. They were about a 1/4 inch long and green.”

“The other reviewers were right on when they said this was not...
Ever since beginning John Kennedy Toole’s tome, A Confederacy of Dunces, I have had the sneaking suspicion that I’ve been emulating his style and/or the general mindset of his protagonist. The somewhat frightening aspect of this realization is that this emulation dates back far before I began reading the book. Whether I’m writing seriously or satirically, I come across as an...
So I finally read this story about how a few badged thugs brutally attacked a boy in my hometown and it boiled my blood. While I desperately hope justice is served against these criminals, I can’t help but feel it won’t happen. So far, the officers haven’t even been suspended. These are the people I’m entrusting my safety and civil order to and they’re attacking my...
In these desperate times, and in light of the horrible suffering that’s going on, I think we all need to take some time to recognize how good we have it- compared to Conan O’Brien. I’d also like to note that it’s in incredibly poor taste to suggest this is all Conan’s fault for signing a pact with the devil. (NOBODY STEAL THIS JOKE)

Law & Order UK should be renamed Law & Order SWSTS (Silly Wigs, Stupid Theme Song). I’ve watched a few episodes of it so far, and I can’t say I dislike it. It’s got that (always strangely-unconvincingly-accented) guy from Battlestar Galactica playing a slightly brash and naive detective alongside someone who appears to be agent Jason Gideon after a stroke that makes him...

I love the completely tasteless and hackneyed way in which Marco alienates his own platform and users in a bid to convince himself of his superiority. I think he fancies himself the Cory Doctorow of the vapid tween-oriented social network he helped found, but instead comes across as one of those woefully out of touch dads who tries way too hard. I could call him overly and unnecessarily critical,...
Anonymous asked: What characteristics (for lack of a better word), do you find most annoying in a blog? Other than the obvious, of course, what kinds of things turn you off on a blog you otherwise might like?
I’ve come to terms with many things throughout my life, but one obstacle remains a burden on my conscience. Yes, I’m talking about Jake and Julia. Not the amalgamation, mind you, but the individuals; now split and matured into two separate and uniquely repulsive entities, they stand as a testament to everything we could possibly find offensive and vile in ourselves and the people...

I was recently made aware of a new feature that Tumblr (my gracious dystopian blog host) implemented to destroy Formspring’s market share. It seems as if everyone (even people I like!) have fallen victim to the narcissistic spell of having strangers on the internet ask them questions. I had held off on such a romp of agony-aunt-brand ego-inflating for the simple reason that I had always...
