Junk Mail: Just got Sex: Our Bodies, Our Junk in the mail. Yup, had to order online, I was too ashamed to buy it in the bookstore during my weekly visit to pick up OK!, People and Asian Lady Holz. Since ripping open the package 2 hours ago, I’ve been hiding from my family, reading and enjoying the hell out of this very funny and highly uninformative sex manual. The book is jam-packed full of sexy, hairy nuggets of info and advice separated into short, easy-to-digest segments, perfect for the sporadic reader. It was researched and written by The Association For The Betterment of Sex aka Scott Jacobson, Todd Levin, Jason Roeder, Mike Sacks, and Ted Travelstead (writers for esteemed shows and mags like Conan, Daily Show, The Onion, Esquire, Vanity Fair) with additional morsels provided by Andy Richter, Allison Silverman and Jon Wurster.

If you’re a fan of finely-tuned parody, stellar design and highly-detailed illustrations of mushroom-shaped penises, this book is a must. Sample:

…or the do’s and don’ts of fisting at high altitudes. Or whether it’s still considered safe to store your condoms in Barbicide. Sexual truth is never a constant—it varies from one mature, engorged partner to the next. It’s up to you to decide what turns you on and what gives you AIDS.  We’re here not to judge you but to guide you. To gently take your hand while you’re having sex and to sit on a bedside stool, patiently waiting for you to finish.

It’s the perfect coffee table book. If your coffee table is located in the seldom-used, third floor bathroom.

Parade of Frightening T-Shirts: Intrepid UsedWigs and Huff Post reporter SM Shrake went deep undercover to the Beck Rally and snapped some lovely photos! He also documented his day of hunting the big fat tee shirts. It’s a good read, and you might be surprised by his take on the participants.

Mr. Clapton, Me, too.

Ha Ha! Enjoy a great video of Scott Weiland and his dumb megaphone falling off the stage during a concert. Somehow, he was able to keep singing without missing a note… wait a minute… is that a backing track? Best fall since Frasier ate it. (via eachnotesecure)

Emmy Thought #1: I’d love to see Jim Belushi in this show… dressed as his dead brother and smashing Jimmy Fallon’s guitar.

Emmy Thought #2: Emily Deschanel is the sister that doesn’t sing, right? I thank her for that.

Emmy Thought #3: Fake confusion and fake anger for winning is always endearing. Nice job, Soprano mom.

Looking for a Social Media job? Need to prepare with some extremely unhelpful interview questions?

Bad Ads: Give Golden Corral credit, they use people with real buffet aficionado bodies in their ads. So you know who you’re up against when vying for the ham.
