Ugly Americans

Ugly Americans is a brill new cartoon that is set in a post-(four horsemen of the) Apocolyptic NYC. Whilst there are no burnt out vans, there are plenty of Demons, Zombies and Koala (spellcheck?) Bears, and the Department of Intergrations attempts to make them all get along. The series is laced with some outstanding and entirely deapan references to real-world treatment of ethnic minorities in the ol' USA and is generally Hi-larious.

If any further evidence were needed of just HOW GOOD this show is, it's timeslot is the one right before the Daily Show

FYI some seriously disturbing Demon/Alien/Fish scenes of a sexual nature

T-shirts on Ebay

Sometimes it's better to go shirtless


The title says it all really, to find a solid mens t-shirt (size large) on ebay requires slogging through upwards of 3,000 listings of some the most indescribable crap man has ever comitted to material. The swathes of Topman/Next/FCUK/Hollister et all shit are to be expected, but the real cream skimmed from the top of the steaming turd are the bewildering 'one of a kind and for good reason' custom made lot. I'm pretty sure some of them are racist. And then there's the 'funny' category. Funny like suicide.

But once every few hundred entries there will be something passable, and once a thousand maybe something incredible, and the slog is hours of entertainment and the perfect night in. Get a few beers and some crisps and party that shit up.

I wish I had a bf

There's two songs stuck in my head at the moment both of which have a first line that goes

"I wish you were my boyfriend" or "I wish I had a boyfriend"

Not great to sing out loud, not if I'm planning on having heterosexual sex any time this year.



I find Bethany Costino suprisingly attractive. It mustb e because she's in a band



Girls are actually boys

Scotty Pilgrim (contains Spoilers)

So good at standing next to chicks


Having never read the comics and avoided all trailers and potential plot spoilers (this same tactic worked well with Kick-Ass) I went into the cinema knowing only this - that Michael Cera plays a slightly dorky hero - so far so predictable. Fortunately I <3 Mikey Cera forever so that wasn't likely to be a huge issue, and as it turned out his character is, subtly, an asshole. The fight scenes are incroyable (french for FUCKING AMAZING), all the characters are utterly loveable, including Jason "Rushmore4evs" Schwartzmans evil villain. The chick in it, (who was also in Deathproof and some lame looking romcoms) is unfeasibly hot in whichever colour of hair she chooses, and even better the music played by the band in the film is written by Beck! So y'know its actually listenable. Sex-bob-omb roolz. Oh shit completely forgot to mention Kieran Culkins delightful turn as Scotts gay house/holeintheground-mate. The Culkins do gay good. see Party Monster

incidentally not looking forward to the rafts of dorks who are going to be wearing those t-shirts soon

Everything is Iluminated

Absurdly good, I mean I know it's a cliche indie read and all that, but it is for an obvious reason. The reason being that it's absurdly good. Three different writing styles, amazing unorthodox prose, and a tantalising story that never has to stoop to the usual literary repetitions to keep you guessing. SO GOOD.

Megafaun

Did somebody say 'the new Crosby, Stills & Nash (and Young)'?

Gummo

Gummo's like looking at a series of photographs, each with a piece of the dialogue that was happening as they were taken attached to it. And even with the eyebrows I am still absolutely attracted to Chloe Sevigny, any time of day or night.

Asleep on a Train

Love the video, love the song (Mum, I can't do the Icelandinc pronunciation bit) and LOVE the girl. That would be a marriage proposal right on the platform level of love. Hopefully she speaks english.

Whatever works

This is how it works, things in life get worse and worse until the stuff you thought was so bad at the start doesn't seem nearly as bad anymore. Smell the contentment
