Killed it.

Once again, Shepard Fairey crushes it with Saks. Gracing the cover of the new Saks catalogs and shopping bags, Fairey's Soviet-inspired designs combined with the slogan "Want It!", will undoubtedly be the new high school textbook wrapper.

I hate her

Stupid Kelly Osbourne got my dog. Wish these celebutard bitches would stop getting Shibas so when I'm finally ready to get mine they don't cost twelvity million dollars.

Save yo'self. Become a cowboy.

I'm a really good friend...

The Buff Teddy Troop is out there. Online AND in stores- and I still don't have it yet. I didn't get anything for Xmas and my birthday's next month.

In case you care, here are some places that carry him. All you have to do is click on a link below. I even made it easy for you - because sometimes being a really good friend means going out of your way to do something nice for someone else.

Ever worry about wearing the same thing as someone else? Quit frontin'- even if you think you've got your own style, it's totally happened to you. Maybe it hasn't happened where you were at the same place at the same time, but you've definitely seen someone else wearing your shit. Dressregistry.com. Check it- you can register whatever "thing" you're going to, and what you're planning to wear. That way, some stupid hoebag won't show up wearing the same thing!

(Supposedly Stylelist.com broke the story about the site's launch. If that's true, then, shit, I'm impressed. It kind of redeems them for being "difficult" to work with...a little.)

Great article in the NYT today about the "death" of Polaroid film. Hopefully you'll think twice now when I shove my Polaroid in your face and hand you the shot. Essentially, I'm handing you a piece of history...that's gotta be worth something, right? Read the article HERE.

Hmm.

Word on the street is that Disney is planning to remake Tron. WHY??

When you fuck me up, I turn here...

there's a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out
but I'm too tough for him,
I say, stay in there, I'm not going
to let anybody see
you.

there's a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out
but I pur whiskey on him and inhale
cigarette smoke
and the whores and the bartenders
and the grocery clerks
never know that
he's
in there.

there's a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out
but I'm too tough for him,
I say,
stay down, do you want to mess
me up?
you want to screw up the
works?
you want to blow my book sales in
Europe?

there's a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out
but I'm too clever, I only let him out
at night sometimes
when everybody's asleep.
I say, I know that you're there,
so don't be
sad.
then I put him back,
but he's singing a little
in there, I haven't quite let him
die
and we sleep together like
that
with our
secret pact
and it's nice enough to
make a man
weep, but I don't
weep, do
you?
- Bluebird by Charles Bukowski

Impressive.

It took François Macré 350 hours to "re-enact" Thriller on his PC- supposedly without an instrument, synthesizer, beatbox or sampler. Gotta love die hard MJ fans.

This is how we roll

Go RED

Every time you use your (STARBUCKS)RED Card to pay for purchases at participating Starbucks stores between 1/3/09 and 12/31/09, they’ll donate 5 cents to the Global Fund to help save lives in Africa. Plus, just buy purchasing/using the card, you can rake in Starbucks drink rewards. Let's get drinking, people!!

Discuss.

Ever cried while you ate?

Please.

Infectious just released new Buff Monster laptop and iphone covers. If you didn't know, now you do.

2009 is the year of Ubuntu

Archbishop Desmond Tutu explains ubuntu like this:

"Ubuntu- the essence of being human. Ubuntu speaks particularly about the fact that you can't exist as a human being in isolation. It speaks about our interconnectedness. You can't be human or by yourself. And when you have this quality, ubuntu, you are known for your generosity. And when you are welcoming ubuntu..." - Sundance Channel's "Iconoclasts"

"A person with Ubuntu is open and available to others, affirming of others, does not feel threatened that others are able and good, for he or she has a proper self-assurance that comes from knowing that he or she belongs in a greater whole and is diminished when others are humiliated or diminished, when others are tortured or oppressed." - Wikipedia

Learn it. Embrace it. Ubuntu.

Bring it, 2009.

My New Year's Resolutions:
1- Learn to be more selfish. Gotta look out for what's in my best interest. Need to stand up to people who treat me like shit and quit being so masochistic. No one deserves to be walked all over.
2- Travel more to see the people I love. Sucks going more than a year without seeing your best friends.
3- Quit the cancer sticks. "No one likes kissing an ashtray."

Thank god the baking resolution is over. That one sucked donkey balls.

For JG...

As my potentially last post for 2008, this one goes out to my favorite person of the year.

This is how my NYE 2007 ended: wasted off straight vodka shots, I ended up at a Burger King in Montreal, eating french fries next to a homeless dude...This is how my NYE 2008 ended: high on champagne and Sudafed, hiding from my brother on the streets of NYC...This is how I'd like my NYE 2009 to end: retarded in Boston with you, making these...and these...
and ending up here...
