Any Other Psychos Out There Looking for an Excuse to Go Crazy?
I’m sorry but the attempts to frame this horrific family murder/suicide as an economic issue is simply ridiculous. It takes much more than tough external forces to cause people to commit such acts of atrocity – it takes a massively twisted fucking psyche: It was described as one of the most grisly scenes Los Angeles [...]

More Bad Music Criticism
A friend showed me this kinda-funny Slate article about Billy Joel called The Worst Pop Singer Ever. It’s cheeky, cute. Here’s a bit: I’m reluctant to pick on Billy Joel.

Here’s a relatively spoiler-free clip: I thought it [...]

The Weak or the Strong, Who’s Got it Goin’ On?
In honor of the new Biggie movie coming out tomorrow – and presented in stark contrast to what looks to be a heart-warmingly revisionist biopic of one of my favorite rappers – I thought it would be nice post one of my favorite Biggie flows of all time. Dead Wrong. This tune was Biggie’s foray [...]

Obama Favored Gay Marriage in 1996
“I favor legalizing same-sex marriages, and would fight efforts to prohibit such marriages.”- Barack Obama in 1996 He needs to be confronted on this at his next press conference, straight up. I’ve always suspected that his civil-unions stance was purely political and this seems to prove it. What up Barry?
