Stick a fork in the spork.

The choon, aka Froggetme, may be just the ironic eating utensil that Asian cuisine loving hipsters (redundant?) everywhere have been waiting for.

And at the bargain price of $8, it also doubles as the perfect ironic complement to your ironic eye patch.

Too bad they're sold out. Go cry in your hot and sour soup.

Mom Jeans: More than just a DJ...

Yeah, Danny Masterson went from "DJ Donkey Punch" to "DJ Mom Jeans" while no one was looking. Too bad he's being upstaged by the return of actual mom jeans. These were purchased in Lawrence, Kansas and were spotted at a recent VICE party in LA that was sponsored by Colt 45. That's "Malt Liquor" for those of you at home keeping score. Can I go to sleep now?

CBS buys Last.fm, plans to use newly acquired anal probe technology to launch fall lineup.

BBC News caption:

The web has helped revolutionise listening to music.







According to a BBC news report today, the CBS Corporation has purchased London based music discovery community Last.fm for the tidy sum of $280 million.

Said Last.fm CEO, Martin Stiksel, "They understand that consuming media is changing, the patterns are changing."

In addition to the thriving community of 150 million users, CBS also gets Last.fm's proprietary discovery engine which consists of complex user-behavior driven software algorithms and state of the art data mining in the form of an anally-inserted USB dongle.

"By monitoring the contractions of the colon, we can determine user reactions to our content recommendations with astonishing accuracy," explained Stiksel.

CBS president and CEO Leslie Moonves added, "The media landscape has chaged from push to pull over the last few years and we see the anal probe as a great way to finally use that to our advantage. Why shove it down their throat when they can can stick it up their ass?"

Stereofork tips the 40 to Jeff Buckley.

Jeff,

There's not much to be said that hasn't already been said on this, the 10th anniversary of your death, other than it's really hard to find a picture of you on Google Images where you don't look like a big, sad poopypants.

Also, it's really awesome that Sony chose to release a criminally unambitious retrospective disc last week, so as not to in any way try an cash in on all the press you were sure to get today.

Cheers, brother. We miss you.

Steal This Contract

Hey, you signed the deal, dickface. Maybe you should make a snarky video about your lawyer instead.

Elk City "Cherries in the Snow"

Only bands from NYC can get away with this shit. If you're in a band that writes catchy, kitschy ditties that graft instantly to the heart, and you're not from NYC, you better move there. Otherwise, you're just a big pussy and you're not funny.

Mixed Nuts

Bryan, I will see your "Nuts" and raise you one self-professed "emo remix". Although, it's actually not emo at all...tomato tomahto...whatevs

Wow, who knows the greatest post punk band ever wore leotards.



Does anyone else find the line, "And you mortgaged your house to pay me..." a little bizarre?
