OK, so CNN is partnered with Frisky.com, a spunky, punchy site for women. But somehow CNN doling out advice on dating a mama’s boy still seems out of place.
Especially when the article begins: When your relationship is full of drama created by his mama, the road to romance can feel like a traffic jam -- with her in the driver's seat.
Oh CNN, ...
Measuring 2 foot 4 inches, He Ping Ping or Pingping He, is the world’s shortest man. He is also probably the most badass guy with primordial dwarfism around, as he admitted in a documentary recently that he smokes two packs of cigarettes and a gram of weed daily.
In honor of He Ping Ping, we present a list of Good Things That Come in Small Pac...
This is the strange, but true story of how I ended up in CosmoGIRL! Magazine's September 2008 issue. I'm involved with Freeganism and dumpster diving. I've been dumpster diving for years and I also helped organize workshops on it at Wesleyan for the annual Food Politics Week. I work (and play) with a group of New York City activists who identify...

Everyone who goes to Wesleyan knows that when you search for anything having to do with "Wesleyan" on-line it's impossible to find what you're looking for! There are dozens of colleges and universities across the U.S. that use the word in their title, so searching for anything related to the 'original' Wesleyan is tough. I can only hope that my ...

Jean Pockrus
July 7, 2008
Yesterday I was violently, physically attacked by a group of transphobic teenagers, three girls probably between the ages of 15 and 17 years old, in downtown Philadelphia. I was waiting for a bus on the corner as the three girls were walking acr...

A group of recent Wesleyan grads living the Bushwick neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York hosted the Freegan Fashion Show #3: Green Goddess Dressing last month as a fundraiser party to benefit the Freegan Bike Workshop, a free workshop in the basement of the 123 Community Space in neighboring Bed-Sty. The party rais...
Friday, June 20 was the end of the website ScoreTop.com.
It has also become the end for about 6,000 prospective business school students.
On June 20, the U.S. District Court made a decision in favor of the Graduate Management Admission Council (GMAC) shutting down ScoreTop.com. In addition to the site being wiped out of internet existence, t...
NYLON is reporting that Gucci creative director, Frida Giannini, found indie band inspiration with MGMT. The Gucci Men's Spring 2009 weaved excessively ornate flourishes onto the blazers and colorful pants in the collection. The stimulus was seen not only in the way of the Brooklyn duo's (and Wesleyan alums) signature style, but also with the so...
The directors on this list are some of the most intelligent, innovative, and influential, yet by the standards of academics, they would be less than average. Yes, it's true that genius is not only found in a sound high school or college career, but these guys either failed at each attempt, or screwed something up along the way. Here's a look at ...
They say fashion is a fluctuating thing. In the past decade alone, we have progressed from the Spice Girl-induced revival of the platform shoe to the retro sophistication of the ultimate classic pieces (i.e. –anything in the J.Crew catalogue). But one thing has remained a constant throughout the past decade and that’s the constant upkeep of one’...
A Lobotomy Would Be Funnier
Final Thoughts: Let me be blunt – there’s absolutely nothing of value in this movie.
Nothing.
The Love Guru is more or less an hour and a half of fart jokes, lame name puns, penis references and recycled Austin Powers jokes. Whoever worked on this script needs to retire immediately.
Yes – that means you, Mi...
With this week’s news of Jamie Lynn Spears’ birth and those Mass. high school students who made a pact to get preggo together, the nation appears to be obsessed with wanting to be just like Juno. Instead of attending proms and keg parties, these underage mums are keeping busy with Lamaze classes and baby shower registries. Here are 9 reasons why...
Female, sophomore at Tufts, single, bi-curious
DAY ONE
2:01 p.m. Finished my last final. Thank f*ck. Packed up for my trip home, get the hell off campus. I’m beyond stoked to be done for the semester.
3:15 p.m. Traffic is horrible, wonder which bag I packed my vibrator in. Masturbating on the highway could be kinda hot.
6:12 p.m. Decide I ...
A scholarship has been created to honor Heath Ledger. The late actor was known not only for his on-screen roles, but for his role as the ambassador of Australians in Film, an organization that helps aspiring actors achieve their dreams. Now AiF will continue those efforts with the Health Ledger Scholarship Fund.
A statement from Ledger’s fathe...
1) You are looking to have a one-night stand.
If sex is all you want, she'll be able to tell. And why the hell would she bother going out again if all you're interested in is screwing her brains out?
2) All you talk about is sex even if you are not looking to have a one-night stand.
This is both insulting and disrespectful. This is supposed t...
The worst thing about getting up for class and/or work in the morning is the sound of my alarm clock.
Seriously, I hate it.
Nothing – and I do mean nothing – sucks more than waking up from my beach vacation with Scarlett Johansson to the sound of my clock radio raping my eardrums.
Thankfully, the fine folks over at Embryo have developed a ...
