The seven best lines from RENT:
tylercoates:
7. “Excuse me if I’m off track / But if you’re so wise, then tell me / why do you need smack?”
6. “Yes, this body provides a comfortable home / for the Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome.”
5. “Mucho masturbation.”
4. “That boy could use some Prozac! / Or heavy drugs! / Or group hugs!”
3. “Come on, sir, moo with me!”
2. “Touché. Take your AZT.”

The Trailer for “Battleship.” Holy shit this looks terrible but I can’t wait to see it.
I swear to god this looks like an upscale SNL Digital Short, but sans humor, whimsy, or fun. I can honestly say I have never been less excited about a film involving Liam Neeson and gunplay. They should have just called this “Cashgrab: The Film.”
Had to be done.

My 25 Minutes in a Romantic Comedy
There’s a playground across the street from my apartment. It’s got a caged practice wall for tennis, half a court on either side. I’ve always been terrible at tennis and I haven’t picked up a racket since I was 15, but with free access so close by, it seemed silly not to try again.
So in spite of the 94º weather I headed across the street with a brand-new can of balls...

I’m a big self-motivator when it comes to pretty much everything, but when it comes to fitness equipment, there’s only one person I turn to: my dad. When it comes to sporting goods, no one knows their shit like he does. My dad grew up in the sporting goods business; back in 1929, my…

I’ve recently started writing with this advice in mind, after previously taking the opposite approach and being a super-perfectionist right out of the gate. For me, at least, I’ve found it to be freeing and immensely helpful.

Dogs and Smurfs; Why women writers and stories about women are taken less seriously, by Max Barry
This has been a great year for male writers, with women shunted aside for major prizes and all-new hand-wringing about why it is so. Because, I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but male writers get taken more seriously. Also, stories about men, even if written by...

Right! It’s on my left forearm, just below the elbow joint. I am not too proud to say it was an incredibly painful 10 minutes. Tattoos on my hips 10 years ago was so much easier.
