The world is powered by aging technology: lithium-ion batteries.

Burning Man is a challenging enough of a thing to describe to those who actually want to be a part of its dusty and visually-stimulating revelry.

At some point or another you’ve dated a woman who twisted your arm to watch some rom-com that made you want to poke your eyes out with toothpicks. Most likely, you spent the night thinking about your fantasy baseball league — instead of picking up a few lessons on how to treat women. Well, I […]
On April 20, 1999, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, seniors at Columbine High School, went on a rampage that ended with 12 classmates, one teacher, and the two shooters dead.

Spend a weekday morning watching The Price Is Right and Judge Judy and you’re bound to see no less than a dozen commercials for attorneys promising to bring in big cash for your insurance claim or impending divorce.

Most fetishes can be accommodated with the aid of a few props and a bit of creativity, but if your sexual urges involve being eaten by a snake then you’ll have a hard time fulfilling your desires.

There’s no shortage of websites and magazines that claim to hold the secrets to great sex or a better love life or how to make your broken, spiteful relationship with your meth dealer look as enchanting as the cover of a Fabio romance novel. Glamour has been doing this for years as you no doubt […]
You’ve heard the term. You know the concept. It’s been around about as long as gay culture has permeated mainstream pop culture. In that time, it’s usually been the fodder of lame sitcoms and urban legends—something at the expense of which we’ve all shared a lame Adam Sandler-laugh or two. We’re talking about Gaydar, of […]
Stamps are the kind of thing we only think about on two occasions: when the postage rates increase or when we need to mail something and don’t have one.
