Just—yes, just—realized that Kindle makes a lot more sense than lugging books on a plane. Seriously, email if you have ideas. Clapifyoulikeme@what-do-you-think-g-mail-obviously.com

After learning his 17-year-old daughter was dating a 57-year-old man, Helmut Seifert of Germany went to the man’s house with two friends and castrated him with a bread knife. “I saw it as my duty as a father,” says Seifert. Via Jezebel, which still has a very scary red bar across the top warning us about changing our passwords and for Chrissakes just shelling out for...

Dear Chrome

Maybe not so much with the “close tab” shortcut being RIGHT NEXT TO the “close window” shortcut? And “select all” also perilously close? Thanks.

50 Greatest Movie Monologues

According to film.com. Wanna guess how many are by women? It’s 3. Out of the 50 greatest movie monologues, three are spoken by women: #26 (Faye Dunaway, Mommie Dearest, a fully demonized and demonic character), #36 (Vivien Leigh, Gone with the Wind, a character who is still argued over—heroine or vicious conniving bitch?), #45 (Ellen Burstyn, Requiem for a Dream, I haven’t...

Disney removes the captions from Netflix version...

Hacking Netflix: The Blu-ray version of Up has closed captions, but despite the movie information page description that says it has captions, I was able to confirm that captions have been removed from the Netflix rental DVD. Shame on Disney for removing captions and preventing the hearing-impaired from enjoying the movie! Does anyone know how to make a post go viral?
