The Woman Who Thinks Like a Cow

Top Chef Season 4 – Richard and Jen are the same person
Every time I watch an episode of Top Chef with Richard and Jen, I can't help but think that he either looks like a lesbian with a bad haircut or she looks like a homosexual male with a bad haircut. Either way, they both look like the same person which creeps me out. Here is […]

My favorite Android apps
Let's all be honest here. We install a lot of apps, but we don't actually use a lot of apps. I'm making a list of apps that I actually use on my Nexus One. Here goes. Google Maps – Hells yes. This gets used pretty much every day. Especially useful with calendar integration to get […]

Virgin has defiled my passport
I bet the United States government wouldn't be so pleased with this.
One of the dumbest ads I’ve ever seen on TV. Earn your college degree at home in your PJs.
I’m not kidding. This was their major selling point. That you can actually earn your online degree at home in your PJs. The domain is even www.homeinpjs.com. There are so many things wrong with this that I don’t even feel the need to explore it any further. One question. What if you are in the […]
