E-books article drinking game
bookavore:
With sincere apologies if this has been done before, but I think this is the only way I can read another one of these. Maybe I might be cranky today!

The Doree Chronicles: My deep thought while... →
My deep thought while running this morning was that one of my biggest pet peeves is when people I thought were cool in college email me and are all, underminingly, “OMG it’s so cool you’re a writer! I totally wish that’s something I had time to do,” OR SOMETHING TO THAT EFFECT.
Dude, nobody had a…

sadydoyle:
But the extent to which we confuse Internet Feminism with Feminism, or say that the growth of one ensures the transformative social impact of the other, worries me. I think we pat ourselves way too much on the back for our Internet feminisms, our various righteous comments and blog posts and blog wars, and forget to ask ourselves what impact our statements are having on anyone who...

ruthcurry:
People who shout “Taxi!” at cyclists.
This happens to me. Obviously it is meant in derision, but I can’t figure out if it’s like, “you should be taking a taxi,” or more sexually offensive, like, “I wanna ride in/on that!”

WatchWhenever anyone on the Internet has a “catfight” someone posts a link to this YouTube classic and I can never resist playing it because Raffles always tries to investigate, sniffing my computer and speakers etc, trying to find the angry cats so he can mediate their dispute or have sex with them or whatever.

seth and i talk 'funstyle' →
maura:
i don’t think it’s that bad, really. also, it makes a lot of sense in context.
I couldn’t help myself and I got really hobbyistic about reading all the online responses to Funstyle and this is, so far, my favorite. Maura and Seth are fair and mostly positive. I have been listening to Funstyle in the context of every other Liz Phair album (except the last 2) all day and having a...
