Dear future football stars: The NFL is about to destroy your life. "After negotiating your contracts, you both will surely buy a house in an affluent suburb where no 22-year-old would be happy living. Your new neighbors will be rich as well, facelifted, lipo-sucked, Xanaxed and dripping in diamonds, simply delighted to welcome you to the neighborhood."

2012.04.24"Last night on The Voice, Adam Levine had a plan. It was a crazy plan. Contestant Tony Lucca had made it to the quarter finals with a sort of gently burly masculinity that came out in songs like "In Your Eyes" and "Beautiful Day," but judge Christina Aguilera remained unmoved. Considering that she and Lucca spent time in the trenches together on The All New Mickey Mouse Club in the mid-1990s, this was a problem." I want to not watch this show but ugh, I TOTALLY AM.

Coffee-shop jargon: 'Dialing in.' "Have you stood watching with vague horror as a barista pulled several shots in a row only to discard them? Have you ever wanted to grab said barista by the shoulders and shout, "What are you doing with all of this coffee, and where is my espresso?!" Don't worry--there's probably a method to the madness."

New children's book "Vegan is Love" just pissing off er'ebody! First) if you don't agree with it, don't buy it. Jesus. Second) nothing in this book is false. Your meat
does come from a farm where animals are treated inhumanely and then killed. Third) it
is important to teach your children that knowing where your food comes from is something.

In defense of Skrillex. Yeah! "Skrillex, see, knows what he's doing. He does what great DJs do: He layers sounds and ideas on top of each other, building tension and releasing it, moving fluidly from one thing to the next."
