Of the top heavy-drinking holidays (St. Patrick’s Day, New Year’s Eve, Mother-in-Law Day), one of our all-time favorites is Cinco de Mayo. Let’s face it. It’s not even really much of a holiday in Mexico. It’s one we’ve adopted stateside in order for liquor companies to sell tons of beer and tequila. And we’re not [...]

Jonesing For Java
Some music makes us want to drink. But Norah Jones makes us want to drink coffee. We can’t explain it, but whenever we hear her music we’re immediately transported to a comfy chair inside a Starbucks where we’re sipping on a tall iced mocha. Her sound is just so soothing, like the perfect balance for [...]
Sucks Like A Champ
Cue the Sara McLachlan music. We just adopted a new animal because of a TV commercial. To be more precise, we just welcomed home the Dyson Animal DC39 with Radial Root Cyclone technology. And it’s utterly adorable (for a purebred). Never before have we been more excited to spend an afternoon sucking dust out of [...]
Stick Your Toes In
There’s nothing terribly sexy about socks. And there’s something just plain disturbing about the term men’s hosiery. Yet every once in a while, we come across some socks that really, umm, knock off the ones we’re already wearing. From makers of some of the hottest underwear on the planet, 2(x)ist has launched a full line [...]
All That Mraz
When it comes to four-letter words, love is our second-favorite. OK, maybe third. Beer is pretty high on our list, too. The latest album just came out from singer-songwriter Jason Mraz and it’s appropriately titled, Love Is A Four Letter Word, because it can, well, suck sometimes. We first started following Mraz when we saw [...]
Over Your Head
Remember when all your worldly belongings would fit comfortably inside a Hefty Bag? Yeah, neither do we. That’s because we put the product whore into hoarding. When we go on a weekend vacation, we need a separate suitcase just for our grooming products. And two carry-ons for our shoes. Don’t even get us started on [...]
Fantastic Plastic
Let’s face it. As gift givers, we’ve gotten lazy. Very lazy. But it’s not necessarily a bad thing. Because laziness equals gift cards. And we’ll take a GC any day over a lame-o candle. You can’t eat candles, after all. (Well, maybe the soy ones in a pinch.) So even though we used to practically [...]
Sound Investment
When you’re jamming hard to The Wanted, the last thing you want interrupting your groove is the sound of your boyfriend asking you to empty the litter box. Or a flight attendant telling you to grab the seat bottom cushion, leave your $5 Pringles on the tray table and jump into the Atlantic. Or maybe [...]
Stuff It
We hate to be the harbingers of bad news, but swimsuit season is just around the corner. And if you’re in Texas, California, Florida or any of the other already-hot-as-heck states, it starts, like, tomorrow. Time to stop eating food and start that Vodka Cleanse that was just featured on Dr. Oz. Or written on [...]
The Celebrity-Free Talk Show
Someone over at Bravo thought it would be a great idea to give Kathy Griffin an hour each week to talk about whatever the hell she wants. We want to buy that person a pony. Sure, we love her standup specials. My Life on the D-List is must-see television. And New Year’s Eve wouldn’t be [...]
