Obviously the best clarification I have ever had to write:
Update: Whoops! It has been brought to my attention that “this Muniz fellow” is in fact a Gawker.TV intern. That will surely make the next roof drinks party super awkward! Anyway, Gawker.TV editor Richard Blakeley wanted me to make sure that everyone knows that Adrian is “like a gem and someone will pick him up. He’s one of my...

I am? Well, I should probably get on that…
Anyway, for reasons unclear to me—because I don’t think I’m that interesting or worthy of something like this—but appreciated regardless, Daniel D’Addario wrote a profile on me for The Awl.
So, if you care to, go forth and read it (but try to ignore the negative comments, even though I wasn’t able to do so).
I’m actually...

Tired of the overuse of the words ‘snowpocalypse’ and ‘snowmaggedon’, by both the mainstream media and bloggers, to describe every large snowstorm that occurs, I have prepared the following short list of alternatives. Feel free to select one next time an event like this takes place:
snowtastrophe
Deep Snowpact (starring Snowlijah Wood)
tsnownami
snowlamity

You ever read something that makes you sit in a room quietly for ten minutes or more as you ponder exactly how something applies to you - because, and without projecting, it does - and exactly what you need to do about it? Because this did. In other words:
Guilty as charged. Shamefully so. And reading this - which, I’m (maybe ironically? But hopefully not.) calling the best thing...

Can I just say that my idea the other night when everyone was posting pictures of the books that happened to be in front of them was that I was gonna take a picture of a stack of comic books and caption it “(AFTER: YOUR MOM)” and tag it “OMG” and “SHUT UP”? Sometimes it is good that I am too poor for a nice camera and therefore DO NOT EXIST, I think.
True story: I had the same idea but...

Sometimes when I’m talking to someone on gchat I’ll get a notification that tells me they’ve “left the conversation.” I gather this means they’ve closed our window, and often this happens before the conversation I’m having with that person has formally ended. Who thought this was a good idea? I’m kinda mad at @katiebakes now.

Not to rain on everyone’s parade, but wouldn’t charging users who wanted to upload more than one audio file a day open up a wide avenue for a ‘profiting off the copyright infringement of others’ lawsuit? Who among us has not clicked that “I have permission to let Tumblr stream this file” button without really meaning it, hmm?
Jesus Christ. Fuck the...

NYmag.com: Matt Harvey’s update on clubs facing closure by NYC for ignoring the smoking ban I have learned to refrain from arguing with smokers’ rights types in the comments sections of blogs, so I should just say — as I have before — the “nanny state” is supercalifragilisticexpialidocious (which means awesome); Bloomberg’s public health...

Marines Do Heavy Lifting As Reporters Lag Behind
The day when the New York Times will be able to let the US military perform complex operations independently, rather than do everything in its power to undermine American missions for the sake of a good headline, remains far off.

Khod’-or-kov-sky I wrote a long article on the jailed Russian oligarch Mikhail Khodorkovsky, here. Since this happened people have had occasion to ask me how to pronounce it. As with most Russian names, however you pronounce it is really just fine. It’s not like people don’t know who you mean. Don’t let Keith alarm you with the “long” descriptor, it’s only...

One of the good things about the Internet is you never have to worry about thinking about a better joke after you get home. To wit:
Actually, we’re going to wear our college acceptance letters pinned to our shirts.
