Julie GersteinDecember 24, 2011 //

Well, isn’t this sweet: some wonderful people are anonymously offering to pay for strangers’ layaway items at random Kmarts across the country. The Kmart layaway program, which helps struggling families pay for items over a length of time rather than all at once, has seen record numbers of anonymous donations come in from strangers wanting to give holiday cheer to people in their communities.

  • I can’t, Kmart in Australia. I just can’t. Why the heck were you selling girls’ underwear with the slogan “I Love Rich Boys” written on them? The panties that read “I Heart Boys In Uniform” and “Call Me” are probably inappropriate for young girls as well — although I’m not clear how “young” we are tal;king — but they’re somewhat tamer. Fail, Kmart in Australia, just fail. [NYmag.com]
  • NBC has ordered a pilot for Sarah Silverman’s new sitcom which will be “loosely based on Silverman’s life.” Great, who gets to play her ex-boyfriend Jimmy Kimmel? [AV Club]
  • Justin Bieber’s paternity test to prove he’s not the father of fan Mariah Yeater’s baby simply involved a doctor swabbing the inside of his mouth, you sicko. [People]
  • Selena Gomez joined Taylor Swift onstage last night and the two sang a duet of Selena’s song “Who Says.” Don’t tell anyone, but I am secretly jealz of their friendship. [The Insider] Keep reading »

Catherine StrawnOctober 22, 2008 //

Politico reported that the Republican National Committee has spent more than $150,000 on clothes and accessories for Sarah Palin and her family since she became the party’s vice presidential candidate in late August. This handsome allowance included spending sprees worth $49,425.75 at Saks Fifth Avenue, $75,062.63 at Neiman Marcus, and $4716.40 on hair and makeup. We’re not sure why America’s favorite model hockey mom is spending so much on her wardrobe when she could be shopping for similar styles at strip malls. Below, we show her how to get the same looks for less. Keep reading »

Amelia McDonell-ParryJune 6, 2008 //

Remember those “True Love Waits” sweatpants we posted about the other day? Well, K-Mart is claiming that the sweats’ message has nothing to do with abstinence and that the bloggers who say that they do are making their own inference. Uh-huh. Cause true love waits for…the sun to shine? True love waits for…the NFL season to start? True love waits for…oh wait, BUSTED. Feministing has got total proof that K-Mart didn’t cover their tracks before lying. Check out the description of the pants to the left. Second bulleted item down, describes the pants’ “bold abstinence screen print”. Nice job ladies. Keep reading »

Crave: “True Love Waits” Sweat Pants

Amelia McDonell-ParryJune 3, 2008 //

We didn’t wait and certainly don’t expect/want you to, but we just can’t help but think it would be really funny to wear these sweats to bed, with our boyfriend, to whom we are not married and living in sin. Because what says “Abstinence Rules!” like a big ol’ message on your butt? (Thanks to Boinkology for the link!) [$16.99, KMart.com] Keep reading »
