Is This Heaven? No It's A Neutral Milk Hotel Video Game Via Prefixmag
This the awesomest, weirdest thing I've seen and I just finished watching The Decemberists video based on Infinite Jest.

When Good Programs Go Bad

I think we can all agree that when it comes to things geeklike and nerdjacent (it's a word) technology is a big part of our how and why. Just marvel at the number of unboxing videos out there whenever Apple has a new update on anything. So I've been sort... Continue reading

Silent Night Basketball in the Midwest
Pajama-clad students, faculty and alumni packed Odle Arena on Friday night for Taylor's home game against Ohio State-Marion. They remained dead silent until guard Casey Coons scored Taylor's 10th point at the free-throw line and then they erupted in confetti-filled mayhem for five straight minutes, as though the tiny NAIA...

Holy Jane and oh My Sassy God! Tavi & Jane Pratt To Launch Teen Magazine

Says the amazing Tavi: Of course, it won't be Sassy (or the rebirth of Sassy, or Sassy 2.0) and nor do we want it to be. For one, you can't try to recreate something that good. For another, while I can read old issues of Sassy and relate, the world... Continue reading

The Breakfast Club Porn Parody trailer is slightly NSFW.
On the one washed/gloved hand it seems ridiculous to find out it took this long to make a Breakfast Club parody. About as ridiculous as finding out that it took all this time for Flaming Lips/Wayne Coyne to cover Dark Side of The Moon. On the other hand, tap ass?... Continue reading
