A collection of random thoughts, daily misadventures, and peculiar musings from my life.
Snark, sarcasm, and snooty technological elitism included at no extra cost.
I grabbed this photograph from the Brooks Brothers home page.
I defy you to look at the gentleman’s face, and imagine him thinking anything other than, “Yup. I’m fuckin’ tonight.”
Reblogged just for “Yup. I’m fuckin’ tonight.”
Yellow Dress
They finally made a product to use for when you accidentally touch an Ed Hardy shirt.
RUEHL: Vestry Street – $88
I really love the colors on this shirt—too bad it’s pretty pricey. The green is also really awesome.
Emma Watson by Mario Testino for Burberry
Ms. Watson looking beautiful as usual. I wish I could say likewise for the men (boys?), but I’d be lying. I wish I could say it’s an unflattering photo for those two. Or maybe that she’s just so stunningly gorgeous that anyone standing close just looks like a hot bag of garbage.
Which reminds me—I still haven’t watched Hermione Granger and the Two Unremarkable Boys that Follow Her Everywhere, Part 6.
How to get shot by The Sartorialist
If I ever get fashionable enough—or make enough money to acquire fashionable enough apparel—to consider myself worthy of inclusion on The Sartorialist, I’ll definitely consult this handy flowchart for advice. Good for a laugh (at myself), at the very least.
Hoyin, take note. I know your aspirations!

Aqua – “Back to the 80’s” on Greatest Hits (2009)
Back in the Ronald Reagan days
when we put satellites in space,
when boys wore skinny leather ties,
like Don Johnson from Miami Vice.When Eminem was just a snack
and Michael Jackson’s skin was black,
back when the coolest thing in store
was a Commodore 64.Back to the 80’s,
back to Soap,
back to Rocky and Cherry Coke.
Those were the days, and we go…Back to the 80’s,
and hey there, Mister T,
to Twisted Sisters on MTV.
Those were the days.
I’ll come back…To Iron Maiden and 7-Up,
Bananarama and Breakfast Club.When Huey Lewis was the News,
and we went flying with Tom Cruise,
when shoulder pads and looking tough
was the dirty David Hasselhoff.Too many men with heavy makeup on,
too many poodles with guitars.
Thanks for all the joy you’ve given us,
you will always be our superstars.
You know you miss the ’80s. And Aqua, too—yeah, don’t lie. The ’80s will definitely be remembered for their questionable fashion and music taste, and Aqua’s music video performs admirably. Just rad.
Aqua’s new compilation album brings back memories of my childhood listening to Aquarium on tape cassette. Awesome stuff for 12 years ago.
Also, R.I.P. Michael Jackson. “You will always be our superstar.”
DIY Emergency Binder Clip Cuff Links [via kottke]
That’s so awesome! It has that whole geek appeal thing going on too, but I guess that hinges on whether the binder clip is a palatable color or not—the silver looks rad.
