Smart Ass: Winter Driving

Seeing as I almost got killed three separate times by cars spinning out on ice on my way to work, you all need some of my help. Two big hints? Put the lipgloss down when you’re steering, and for the love of God, stop texting–the people who actually like you won’t get mad [...]

Smart Ass: Pigskin Basics

I’m not sure why more of you don’t appreciate American football.  Unlike other sports referred to as “football” in other (read: inferior) nations, in ours, things actually happen–and the guys wear tighter pants.

If that’s not enough reason for you, football can also help you understand the men in your life a [...]

InnerView: SRIMIX

Meet DJ SRIMIX!

Artist Name: SRIMIX
I want to plug… my laptop to the wall before it dies while typing this.
Listen to me if you… want to get sweaty.
Music is my life because: “Without music, life would be a mistake.” -Nietzsche

The first song I ever wrote… punk rock song about life at 10 years old.

Smart Ass: How to Change a Tire

If you’re reading this, you’re probably a woman.  This implies that you likely shouldn’t be trusted with a vehicle to begin with.  However, since that requires far too much lobbying to change than I have the energy for, I’ll just try to make it as painless as possible to the people we share the road [...]

Planet Verge’s Songs for the Scorned

Because Hell hath no fury.  Now go buy your half-off chocolates and relish in your being too good for that jackass.

“Breakin’ Up” – Rilo Kiley
It is catchy as hell and after being broken up with, it’s nice to find a beat to shake my booty to AND sing along with all the while cursing the [...]

The Planet Verge Valentine’s Mix

In search of some mushy make out music?  You’re in luck, because we’re a bunch of saps.  Thank us tomorrow morning when your date’s making you breakfast.

“I Will Follow You Into the Dark” – Death Cab for Cutie
Ben Gibbard pretty much sums up everything I feel about love in that song.

The way to Jess’s heart…

…Is via a really thoughtful present (or playing King Leonidas).
I’m not even kidding when I say I’ll marry whoever gets me that on the spot.
*By Jess, who’s a true romantic.

Jess doesn’t want to be approachable

Gentlemen, you’d have so much more luck if you paid more attention to a girl’s book than to her boobs.
If I’m in a corner with my hood up, head down, headphones on, and face buried in this:
Why would you walk up and ask if I have a boyfriend?
And when I say “yes” in hopes of [...]

Brittany Murphy croaked

Everyone is acting shocked and saddened by the death of Brittany Murphy at age 32.  Yes, it’s sad, but no one gave a shit about her for about five years until roughly an hour ago.
You’re never too young to die of a drug overdose, which could ostensibly cause cardiac arrest, and would explain why her [...]

Jess conducted a small social experiment

A few of our staffers had the bright idea of registering on okcupid.com, a free online dating site.
While I’m perfectly content with my current status, I’m also an asshole, so I had some fun with this.  If you want to stalk me–and have this post make any sense to you–my profile is here.
The frightening part [...]
