A Completely Arbitrary Graph Of Sexy And Unsexy Dude Professions

Julie GersteinDecember 8, 2010 //

Go ahead and take issue with our completely arbitrary list of sexy and unsexy professions: we get that it may be hard to understand why a pizza guy is sexy to us (um, they smell like pizza) and a fry guy is so totally not (fry grease makes us gag). And yes, our definition of high-paying and low-paying is definitely ball park — we define high-paying as definitely way above minimum wage and low-paying as closer to it. And sure, there are probably some ice cream truck guys who rake in the dough and some IT guys who are just scraping by. However, we do want to point out that in assembling this list we’ve come to realize that we’ve almost exclusively dated low-paying sexy dudes. And a lot of drummers. Keep reading »

Want A Man? Wear A Hat

Julie GersteinDecember 8, 2010 //

Ladies, having trouble attracting a man (AND HOW)? Then grab a bowler hat. That’s right: a bowler hat. According to Daily Mail writer Deborah Francis-White, a jaunty cap will do the trick to attract a mate. Says Francis-White:

“I’ve worn a bowler hat and the effect is extraordinary. When I walk down the street dressed ­normally, nothing happens. If I walk down the street in a bowler, a man will say at least five times a day: ‘Nice hat!’ — which I read as a more acceptable way of saying: ‘Nice breasts!’”

Or, maybe you’re just wearing a stupid hat? Keep reading »

The Christmas Tree Of Our Nightmares

Julie GersteinDecember 6, 2010 //

When I was little I used to go swimming in a freshwater lake near my parents’ house. Until one day I waded in and saw a dull white eel swimming near the perimeter of the shoreline and was traumatized. I refused to ever go in the lake again. So you can imagine how absolutely thrilled I was to see artist Kazuhiko Minawa’s eel-powered Christmas tree. Says Minawa, “If we could gather up all the electric eels from around the world, we would be able to light up an unimaginably large Christmas tree.” Sure, I’ll get right on that.
