Re: What are you reading?

I read 50 Shades of Grey. I did so for two reasons: 1) I knew I thought it was an abomination, but the enthusiasm with which I tore it apart just rang hollow as long as I couldn't claim to have full context. Basically, I didn't want to be "that guy" that tore something apart without even h...

The girls seemed frustrated about it, too. My friend and I caught all of the girls looking downright pissed at one point or another. I felt bad for them.

Re: This is a 2NE1 thread

So, my best friend and I went to the Jersey show. We met up with sadude and his friends there. We arrived really early and settled into a booth at a BBQ place right across from the Prudential Center and where the dance flash mob was set to happen. I basically just watched the flash mob (which sadude...

Re: Gangnam Style

I don't really get what needs explaining? There's lot of amusing things on the internet. Sometimes they go viral. Typically it just takes one major source giving it some exposure before all the other usual haunts pick it up. Psy's video had a lot of stuff that's universally funny, and it also has so...

T-ara's videos have always had seizure-inducing editing, but the Day By Day dance shot really does take the cake. I barely got 30 seconds in before I decided I couldn't watch any more, and that's never happened to me with any of their other videos. Well, except for every one of their mini-movie styl...

Re: Wonder Girls

I love WG, but I find this kind of awkward. The choreography isn't especially impressive, and the intro made it more cheesy than anything else. I dunno. I liked the song well enough in the movie, but somehow it's less impressive as a stand-alone track.
