Admit it it. Sure, American Apparel makes great (albeit overpriced) comfy cottons, but seriously, what is more irritating to you?
The fact that they hire illegal immigrants to do the work (oh sure, you were planning to take that job and work in a hot dusty warehouse in the middle of the urban desert for minimum wage)?
Or are you (like me) more annoyed that they employ these folks to make things like this…
…and THEN have the kahonas to charge $42 for them.
*SIGH*
As if you needed another reason to get an iPhone, how can you resist a phone that has a $.99 app that tells you when it is safe to go number one during a movie. Hell yeah! I believe the iPhone is the key to utopia

One of the things I love about artist taking more control over their music is the creativity that ensues. Often times there is so much more to a musician or a band than simply the sounds they make. The album design, the way the music presented, and (as seen below) even the way they are interviewed.
Also be sure to check out this beautiful string remix of Pale Horses by Davide Rossi via SUNfiltered. The depth of sadness in this track is greatly enhanced by the string arrangement.

This is great! You should read this article when you get a chance: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/magazine/8117619.stm
A couple highlights:
“It took me three days to figure out that there was another side to the tape. That was not the only naive mistake that I made; I mistook the metal/normal switch on the Walkman for a genre-specific equaliser, but later I discovered that it was in fact used to switch between two different types of cassette.”
“I managed to create an impromptu shuffle feature simply by holding down “rewind” and releasing it randomly…”
BUT if he thought a portable cassette tape player was clunky, remember portable CD players?!? Cripes, besides being anything but portable (especially if you are on foot), they were really touchy! Any sudden movement would make it skip!
Ahhhh…but thems were the days…
Capybaras are not giant hamsters but are the world’s largest rodents! Instead of creating fodder for your nightmares, take a little time now to learn about them and debate the ever important “Creepy or Cute?” question. Caplin Rous even has his own blog!
I love giant monster movies, the cheesier the better. This one looks like it takes the cake! You know it’s got to be bad when you’re relying on Debbie Gibson as your scientific advisor.

c/o NPR: SC Gov. Sanford Gets Biblical In Apology To State Officials
Okay, I get it. I am not exactly religious, but it is appalling to me that this joker has the audacity to compare his situation to that of *KING DAVID* from the bible. KING DAVID!
According to the NPR report, the governor has…
“…been doing a lot of soul searching on that front and what I [Gov Sanford] find interesting is the story of David and the way in which he fell mightily, he fell in very, very significant ways. But then picked up the pieces and built form there…”.
Wow. I can’t believe this guy. Of course, I have some recommendations…
Gov Sanford: Seriously. 1.) Get over yourself. 2.) Give your wife (and the state of SC) a little dignity and step down from office. 3.) Practice what you preach.
SC: 1.) Get your money back from Sanford for that lux trip to Argentina that you paid for. In fact, the sooner the better on that one. Best to do this *before* the lawsuits… 2.) Impeach him.
Terrell Owens is probably the top sports athlete that people love to hate. He on field and off field shenanigans drive people crazy all the while we just have to look.
Here is a list of the Top 5 Worst Terrell Owens Moments!
Never fear though, Terrell is willing to confess:

Queue the applause for Oregon! It is about time! Glad we FINALLY caught up with the rest of the country. Nothing is more annoying (well, I am sure there *are* more annoying things) than following someone who is driving like a jerk only to discover that:
a.) they are on their cell phone ~~or~~
b.) TEXT MESSAGING
That last example is my favorite. Seriously people? Texting while driving? Are you trying to kill and/or mame me?
According to BikePortland:
“As passed, HB 2377 will make the use of a “mobile communication device” while driving a primary offense, meaning cops need no other reason to pull you over…The offense will come with a $90 fine and will go into effect on January 1, 2010.
The bill provides exceptions for hand-free devices, emergency responders, CB radio operators and for people whom the operation of a motor vehicle is “necessary for the person’s job.”
The question that remains is…what about all the other crap people do while driving? Can we really ban eating, shaving, putting on make up, etc.?
