Yes, That Flair Does Make You Look Like A Rapist

Amelia McDonell-ParryMay 9, 2008 //

One of the many stupid ways to waste your time on Facebook is by sending people “flair” — basically little icons users can put on their profile pages that represent their interests (i.e. a piece of flair of Harry Potter naked, or a piece of flair stating your love for boxed wine). But you can also send people flair that promotes rape! Like all of the ones above! So not funny right? I suppose the people behind the “Flair” application thought that rape was just like any issue, with a pro side and a con side and since they had so many anti-rape pieces of flair, they need to have some pro ones as well. Leave a message on the application’s wall, if this pisses you off. [Facebook: Pieces of Flair via Feministing] Keep reading »

Cuckoos Are Clever Birds

Catherine StrawnMay 9, 2008 //

Did you know that the word “cuckold,” meaning the husband of an adulteress, is derived from “cuckoo,” a type of bird that commonly flies out of clocks? Cuckoos lay eggs in the nests of other birds, and the other birds are left to hatch and raise them (though they don’t have a clue because the cuckoo eggs look just like their eggs).

Sexified Schweppes Ad

Catherine StrawnMay 9, 2008 //

Apparently everything is sexier in France. In this ad, Schweppes has managed to make its drinks, or at least this particular drinker of its drinks, so hot and bothered that she rolls fruit all over her naked body. Doesn’t it make you want to sip a fruit-flavored soda? No? Yeah, me neither. [via Shape+Colour]

    Beyonce Plays Dress Up With Your Kids

    Amelia McDonell-ParryMay 9, 2008 //

    If you can’t trust Beyonce to not tart up your kids, who can you trust? The singer has a line of clothing called House of Dereon — which is horrible, by the way, I have tried it on at my discount department store and BLECH — and she’s now releasing a line for little girls. We expect such things from Disney, but B? Uh oh, uh oh, uh oh, oh no no. [Pop Gumbo] Keep reading »

    Carrie Bradshaw Would Like Her Desk Back

    Catherine StrawnMay 8, 2008 //

    After Sex and the City ended its run on HBO in 2004, Carrie’s desk and laptop were donated to The Smithsonian museum. But then when they decided to do a movie and needed them back. (I don’t understand why they would need her laptop back — if she really is a successful writer with a few books under her belt, you would think that she could afford a MacBook Air.) The Smithsonian was rather reluctant to hand over the props, and Sarah Jessica Parker had to get involved: “After the series finale The Smithsonian called us to ask for the desk and laptop from the TV show. They only released it back [for use for the film] after I made several personal calls. When it was suggested I use a replica because no one would know it a replica, I said ‘I will know.’ We had to have that desk — as a writer, it’s an extension of you.” [ContactMusic.com]

    SimchaMay 8, 2008 //

    Internet bullying isn’t just for kids anymore, grown-ups are responsible for the growing trend of online torture.

    Style On The Street: Three’s Company

    Catherine StrawnMay 8, 2008 //

    Isn’t the girl on the left intense? Especially her dress’s neckline. The girl in the middle knows what’s going on. Red trenches are one of the 10 best articles of clothing ever created. And on the right, the whole striped-shirt peaking out of jacket-sleeves thing is a nice touch. [Trender Bender] Keep reading »

    Guys Shouldn’t Wear Bling

    Catherine StrawnMay 8, 2008 //

    So, Nick Cannon’s wedding ring. From the looks of this photo, it is large and covered in diamonds. Eek. Men shouldn’t be allowed to have gems on their wedding bands. I realize this is discrimination, but men who wear diamond rings are just trying to be Tony Soprano or P.Diddy. Like, because they’re hyper-masculine, they’re allowed to wear diamonds. If a guy wants people to know he has money, he should buy a vintage Cartier watch. Or a private island. [PopSugar] Keep reading »
