Psycho Girlfriend


Next thing you know, she'll be boiling a bunny or something.

Does every guy have one of these women in his past? Seems like the guys I know do.

Books and the Britons Who Haven't Read Them
books_ybnby_2.jpg
I knew it! Those English blokes who walk around all high and mighty with their fancy-lad accents and finger sandwiches are frauds. The whole lot of 'em. (I'm looking at you Scaramouch) When they're pontificating about James Joyce's contributions to the world of literature while wagging their fish and chips stained fingers at us slovenly American for being ill read ... they're lying. According to this article from Reuters, two out of three Britons lie about reading books they haven't. (Oddly, the number one book they lie about reading... George Orwell's 1984) So the next time some Englishman is staring down at me from his upturned nose, I'll take comfort in knowing I've read Green Eggs and Ham cover to cover ... twice.

Free Entertainment! (In Podcast Form)
podcast_ybnby.JPG
Podcasts are still a mystery to most people. Asking someone to download them is like making an epileptic watch an episode of Max Headroom ... the results aren't pretty. (If you have iTunes, go to the iTunes store, click on "podcasts" and search (and download) to your heart's content.) I'm lucky enough to have one of those jobs that let's me strap a set of headphones on and while away the day listening to whatever I'd like. And I've discovered that not only are Podcasts great to listen to, but they may actually make you smarter. I've collected some of the better ones below for you to check out.

Tesla Roadster Test Drive
tesla.jpg
We've had years to get used to the idea of an electric sports car, but we're still tempted to laugh. Maybe we shouldn't. Chuck Squatriglia at Autotopia took the Tesla Roadster for a test drive, and is he impressed! So much that writes using the royal "we".
Don't get us wrong: The Roadster isn't just an excellent EV, it's an excellent car. The power is impressive, the fit and finish are top-notch, we love the instant power, and that candy-colored carbon shell is sexy as hell. Most impressive, it's a true sports car that just about anyone can hop into and drive fast.

And that's exactly the problem. The Roadster is so easy to drive it's almost, well, boring.

Still, you can't help but grin when you're behind the car's tiny Momo steering wheel. Aside from drawing more looks than a chrome Lamborghini (though that's probably a San Francisco thing), the Roadster's acceleration is addicting. It isn't the horsepower that's so impressive -- though 248 horsepower in a 2,700-pound car is nothing to sneeze at -- it's the torque. Stomp on the skinny aluminum accelerator and all 276 foot-pounds of it is right there, instantly. That's why we love electric motors, and it's the reason the Roadster does zero to 60 in a Porsche-worthy 3.9 seconds.

See more pictures at Wired. This car can be yours for $109,000 and a 12 month wait.

Jon Stewart vs. CNBC


The next time I'm invited to be on The Daily Show, remind me not to back out. I don't think we've heard the end of this one.

This is definitely worth a laugh. (Pole Rants. Will they take the place of craigslist?)

Oh and Sheryl Stolberg at the NY Times definitely gets a raise for getting this headline through.

404 Error

Whoops! We're not sure if it was your fault or ours (probably yours, we're good that way) but you've encountered a FATAL ERROR!!! Or at least, a pretty grumpy one.

Specifically the Latvians who run our server are telling us in a weird accent "Smarty error: [in evaluated template line 6]: syntax error: unrecognized tag 'mtfeed' (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, line 580), Comrade!". Ain't life a bitch.

If you want to vent, email our slacker of a webmaster. Otherwise, we'd suggest going back, using search, or clicking around aimlessly on this page like a moron.

Have fun.
