Print ArticleBree Olson Analyzes Marcel Duchamp
It's painful at this point to write anything related to the bogeyman known as Charlie Sheen, but here we are. One of his "goddesses," Bree Olson, who stars in porn films and tweets dirty things ("Once you fuck me it'll be hard to go back to that tired worn old bitch. Lol I'll ride it like a rodeo."), bumped up against prewar French conceptual art and didn't quite get it. The above is a picture of her with Marcel Duchamp's 1917 "readymade" Fountain in the background. Quoth Bree, "Art museum in Philly last week. They had some creepy shit!" LOL art is so weird.

New Dating Opportunity For Reclusive Weirdos!
The world of online dating is full of misleading profiles. It's a huge cliche, really. Remember what happened last week with the OkCupid lonelyhearts 4chan tried to prank? Anyway, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em. A new dating website called "Cloud Girlfriend" casts off any pretense of realism and offers people a place to come and openly pretend to be other people. The premise is this: you cobble together a profile out of thin air, making yourself seem like whoever you want to be. Obviously you don't use your own photo. And then you meet people who have done the same. So it's fake people meeting fake people, getting in fake relationships, getting fake-married, and eventually having fake babies?

Our friends at the paper of record's revamped weekend mag have a handy roundup of some of the most cloyingly "feminine" guns on the market these days, as four states now allow people to carry concealed weapons without a permit. So for those who want to carry a gun in their purse that is as cute as the purse itself, here are a few options, reviewed by yours truly: 
Kentucky Town Threatened by Cat Menace, Questionable Signage
Categories: 'National' 'News', Awesome Signage, Cats, Culture Studies, It's Saturday, OK?, Rosie Gray, Signage That's Not So Awesome, We Love a Mystery
There's a small town in Kentucky called Taylorsville that is infested with cats. Nobody knows how it happened (it happened because people need to spay and neuter their cats, is how it happened). The video from NBC News is rather charming in a Christopher Guest kind of way: 
Drunk Men Think They're Hot, and Other Facts (Study)
An explosive new study out of Australia is showing that drunk men think they're more good-looking than they actually are. We've seen this phenomenon in action at every single social gathering we've attended, ever. The ones that involve alcohol, that is. Which is most of them. 
Looking good, feeling good.
News. This is newsy, newsy news.
More »Benjamin Franklin Had More Than 200 Ways to Say "Drunk." Here Are Our 10 Favorites.
Ben Franklin was just like us. Except, more prolific. With a hairstyle that would really not work for us. And then there's that electricity thing. But regardless of our differences, he would have made an amazing blogger (Poor Richard's the Tumblr!), and it goes without saying that we would have jumped at the chance to party with him. Thankfully, his legacy lives on in myriad forms, not least, in his cataloging of the many, varied, and special ways you might explain to friend or foe that you are "under the weather" in "that way."
Dude was nonstop party.
