SHOULD BE EASY…
MANO A MANO: It’s getting kind of ugly between Men’s Wearhouse and Jos A Banks.
WOOF: Target’s very bad Holiday Season just keeps getting worse.
ACCORDING TO JOE… “Shut-up Grandma”.
SPY VS SPY: I thought this stuff only happened in the movies.
OOOPS:
I’m thinking this could be the new this.
THE UNHAPPIEST TOOT EVER: Clearly the terrorists have won.
DUCK DUCK BOOM: I laughed. And apparently this isn’t even the first time this has happened.
WE’RE GONNA NEED A SALT LICK…because one grain of salt won’t do. Next time you hear about the latest piece of art to shatter records at auction, remember this. Thanks to one of my favorite artists for the tip.
STARBURST:
Australian photographer Lincoln Harris takes long term exposures and with the help of the Earth’s rotation, ends up with some stunning images.
PETAL POWER: I totally dig this.
ETYMOLOGICAL FUN PART 1: Because sometimes the English language is lacking where the perfect word is concerned. Come for the backpfeifengesicht, sympathize with the kummerspeck, identify with the iktsuarpok, and get slugged for one too many mencoleks (seriously, that #$%@ gets old).
THE YEAR IN REVIEW: GQ put together a list of trends for the year that just ended.
MANY HAPPY RETURNS:
FOR THOSE ABOUT TO ROCK: This right here. Wow. Just when you think you’ve got a handle on African subcultures, this comes along. I think that Lars and Co. need to get themselves over there and put on one of their big shows. Love this.
UH DUDES…you are totally NOT helping your reputation here. Yikes.
LIFEHACK OF THE WEEK: Well I’ll be jiggered. This seems a bit counterintuitive but what the hell do I know? I’ll answer that: not much in this department.
SHAKEN, NOT STIRRED:
ETYMOLOGICAL FUN PART 2: Lake Superior State University is back with their annual list of banished words. For the record, I am totally down with numbers 1 – 4, confused by number 5 (what year is this anyway?), baffled by number 6 (seriously, this of all the words out there?) and mostly meh about the rest.
STAY OFF MY LAWN! Takes one to know one?
ONE MORE REASON…to stick with that New Year’s Resolution, or, more than likely, keep up with your standard operating procedure.
THIS CAN’T POSSIBLY BE A GOOD THING: Seriously. what could possibly go wrong?
AH NUTS: Frankly, I’m not entirely sure this was such a great idea. I have a battered old Red Rider pump action bb gun that sees its share of action where these furry little bastards are concerned. They eat my bird feed AND they wreak havoc in my garden.
BREWSKI SNARK: Chances are you’ve already run across this, but there’s a reason.
INCOMING!

- The Polar Vortex got you stir crazy? Throw one of these!
- I don’t wear any so this is easy for me, but if you’re fond of boy bling, you need to check this out.
- Speaking of Shaken and Stirred, this.

honestly, i think people use hot (or warm, at least) water because it just feels better. i’m not arguing their logic. but that means we should be taking cold showers too. which… ain’t happening.
FYI: In the Japanese/English sign, “dump” is misspelled as “dumb”. It says “please don’t throw your trash here”.

I’ve read the Botswana metal culture thing before, but man. Such a cool writeup, and amazing photographs. And as a headbanger myself I think the music is pretty good.
Burgeoning music scenes are always full of interesting stuff. Metal in Africa, Egypt, the Middle East off the top of my head have produced some cool stuff the past few years.
Now there is a lifehack.
