Re: “Game of Thrones: Tyrion and Sansa Get Married, More Bad Things Happen to a Penis”
What exactly is the point of this? Such bad writing....And if we want to know what happened, wouldn't we just watch the show?
Re: “Sex, Love, and Brooklyn: Putting On My Big Girl Pants”
Welcome to the club.
My dating life improve significantly once I just started a) representing what I am as honestly as possible b) representing my wants and boundaries around those wants as honestly as possible c) doing both of the above with as much flair and fucking humor as possible.
This has started to make things much easier and by all standards, more successful, even on the days where I don't want to put a nice little chocolate glaze over the experience.
So now that you are starting to allow reality to show up in your more intimate and "secretive" corners, you're going to start to do it more often and you're also going to be more aware and conscious of any of the times that you decide NOT to be honest (and frankly, there are times when it's more fun to white lie your way through a night or two, fuck a moral vista.)
Anyway i had a ton of coffee - good article.
Re: “Great GoogaMooga Canceled”
So that's two years in a row they've fucked up. Can we stop with the GoogaMooga hype now? Can we at least get rid of the "great" part of it?
Re: “The "Smallest Penis In Brooklyn" Pageant Is Now A Thing”
Pretty rude way to describe the event. Won't be following this writer anytime soon.
Re: “Game of Thrones: Climbing On Thin Ice”
I only just discovered this site, this set of reviews and this person - Kristin Iversen - when I was surfing websites randomly, yesterday afternoon. I've read all of them now, and been entertained by them all.
I wasn't entirely sure what Littlefinger was like, until the second series. He was charming, a little creepy and maybe-a-bad-man. But, like most characters in "Game of thrones", the concepts of good and bad become a little more complex and a little more open to interpretation. So I reserved judgement until I found out a little more about him.
Then he had that scene with the tearful whore. He was very charming at first - as usual - and gradually became downright chilling as he made his point clear. After that, he wasn't maybe-a-bad-man any more.

Another perspective on this story. Maybe, JUST MAYBE, this was done for the lols because Stickles, based on several of his rants and blogposts, seems to take everything so seriously.
Re: “Titus Andronicus Desecrated Confederate Flags on Stage in Georgia”
I'm sorry, but your headline is sensationalist and abhorrent-- the Confederate Flag is not an official flag of the country. It's a symbol used to scare and intimidate, and to try and say that the band did anything other than what they did and that it was somehow negative or wrong is gross and pathetic. So disappointed, but I guess I shouldn't be....
Re: “Grown Ups: Ageism Justified”
Wow you all over examine everything. Not to mention the joke about the lifeguard WAS NOT so much a insult to Canadians as it was meant to be for the typical steriod using muscle builder. Not to mention the fact that later that night the wives apparently were thinking about the lifeguard during sex considering Kevin asks sandler were saskatoon was during your so called horrible unspeakable drinking water from jugs scene.
P.s. if saskatoon was going to start hating us over something so silly they can seriously move to the dark side for all I care. I don't really care or not. Not to mention America is constantly used as humor in films. The difference is we know what jokes are... jokes.
Re: “8 Great Brooklyn Artists Under 30”
Any chance you could highlight '30 great artists under 8'?
Re: “It Sucks to Own a Food Truck”
Many restaurant owners see food trucks as a threat, which all humans are creatures of habit so it is understandable. But what they are failing to realize is that they are wasting precious time trying to fight the food trucks instead of working with them. Restaurant owners (especially those that serve alcohol and killer seating areas) could partner with 1-2 food trucks one night out the week and offer the community something that they cannot get anywhere else.
For example, they could advertise a "special" of 1 food truck item and 1 beverage for a price customers cannot refuse-$10 bucks; it would be even better if some type of entertainment or theme for that night could also be implemented. This results in a win-win for both parties and allows the restaurant/food trucks to increase revenue all around.
Due to the "gourmet food truck" industry's recent expansion, some areas are still transitioning and food trucks are being punished. As a result these areas do not offer a ready-made plan for new and existing food truck operators to navigate the permit-licensing process and end up with tickets (the short end of the stick). It is very important to do your due diligence before opening a food truck in any area.

Re: “Talking to Above Brooklyn Director Heather Spilkin About Williamsburg's Rooftop Pigeon-Keepers”
ii miss flying pigeon so much that i get so so sick about it.
Re: “Why I Fucking Hate Kickball”
Unfortunately, all hipsters are followers, not creators. That's why you cannot claim Burroughs, Basquiat, and many others under this term.
Re: “Karen O Isn't The Reason This New Yeah Yeah Yeahs Record Is Good”
Maybe the writer isn't old enough, but I'd guess KO's costuming follows Mick Jagger's use of costuming from the Rich top hat statesman parody to Mr. America to court jester to disco man to Jamaican tribal chief and so on.
