GQ: Why Brunch Blows:
Fake-farmy restaurants! Hangovers with strangers! Long lines! Watery mimosas! Seventeen-dollar French toast! Sickly orange slices sadly dying next to overwrought infantilizing pancake concoctions on chipped china! Half your waking weekend day spent in a hollandaise haze! “Can I top off your shitty coffee?” Yes, please! Because it’s brunch. And everyone must love brunch. Because...

I’d be way remiss if I didn’t mention that my favorite album of 2009 just got a cover, and a name, and a tracklisting. It’s called “Manners”, and it’ll find its way into my sweaty, admittedly-a-little-too-obsessed hands on May 26.

Spiderman Musical Gets Premiere Date →
So there’s a Spiderman Musical in production. “Wow!”, you might think. “Comic Books and Musicals! Now there’s a gay marriage I can support.” Ha ha! Good one, you. But, careful. There is such a thing as too much of a good thing. Lurking beneath the innocuous coupling of superheroes and musical theater is something destined to turn an otherwise-happy gay...
