Exactly this. It's the same risk, but a different factor.

Same with those Bloody Mary's with the ridiculous garnishes or those "freakshakes".

I think Anthony Bourdain made that comparison (possibly first?) about cook books and porn mags saying they're both full of pictures of people doing things you'd like to, but you'll never do.

What about the Cthurky? So. Fucking. Gross.

The internet has created a generation of people who couldn't invent the internet.

Wait, if it's "delicious", therefore ironically-not-really-delicious, to the immature, juvenile palate, does that mean it's genuinely delicious to the more mature gourmand?

I think the venn diagram of "hipsters" and "people who wonder whether or not they are hipsters" is basically a circle.

I'm trying to figure out if it's comforting or annoying to have someone's assumed dickishness confirmed… can it be both?

I am literally a baby who was born last week. I have so much to learn about the world and its myriad facets. As you're the clear expert on the genre, can you name for me all the other big budget films that present such an uncritical, almost cartoon-like, glorified portrayal of real-world criminals up to, and…

After divorcing Jani Lane she was engaged to Tommy Lee of Morley Crew. They split up and Lee married Pamela Anderson four days later. That's a guy that doesn't waste any fucking time.

No, from tape still wins for most tedious and frustrating. Load for thirty minutes "I think it's broken, shall we try again?"

You know what's worse than jewel boxes? Those cases where the plastic CD tray is fused to the paper cover. If one of those little teeth breaks, there's no way to replace it, and it will never hold a CD again.

In the spirit of the internet making us feel less alone, I too cannot figure out an easy way to make a playlist of both music and podcasts and it frustrates the shit out of me.

What I really like is that a lot of the time when you buy something on vinyl you get a high quality download version at the same time. That really is the best of both worlds.

I like artefacts, but I rarely buy CDs now, it's all digital or the amazing LP versions that everyone seems to be putting out now.

I've said this before, but it seems odd/sad to me that, music, the very reason a lot of people were brought across to the Apple eco system through the iPod seems to be the reason that drives some people away. The change to music player in iOS 7 was egregious, and it seems sad to me that I have one ancient Mac with an…

Making a film about murderers and rapists and un-ironically calling it "Legend" seems at best misguided.

And also Keanu is so terrible in that film everyone else comes across as performing an absolute thespian masterclass.

That's interesting because while I love Princess Bride, I absolutely hated Kill Bill for the same reasons. Didn't seem like Tarantino was celebrating, but rather shamelessly ripping off.

Yes. Probably more than once.
