It's not often when our editor comes out of his office, but he came out a few weeks ago and shouted, "James, I have a story for you!"
He proceeded to tell me his brilliant idea for a Valentine's Day story, and he wanted me to chronicle my dating life for our readers. I reluctantly agreed only because I had become so tired of being angry and cynical due to the fact that my ex left me for his...
It's been a really, really messed up week
These memories of Christmas bringing days of torture
So my boyfriend texted and broke up with me
He's an Arlington douche and it's time for me to un-friend him

We're really raving tonight, tonight
There's a party at the big dome top of the dome
Tonight, tonight were...

My friend walked in with a spring in his step and a look of pure excitement. He was holding a new phone and told me he just got the new iPhone4S. "You can talk to it," my friend said.

EJ: So, Siri. You're kind of like C-3PO aren't you?
Siri: No. I am not fluent in ove...
When I arrived at my desk this morning at The Spoof, I was pleased to find a CD with a post-it stuck on it that had barely legible writing on it that, I think, said, "Review this." I always enjoy reviewing music so I happily took off the post-it, and that's when I read the title of the song and then I realized that it must be a joke. I looked around at my co-workers. They were all sitting at their...

Like most modern day inventions, we have to give credit to the US military for Duct Tape. It is said that Army personnel in 1942 created it in order to keep water from leaking in ammunition cases. Before that, soldiers would use medical tape. While medical tape was great for adhering bandages to skin, it was not great for patching up things blasted by bombs.

For some, the quest for love has them make up false claims about themselves on internet match making sites. For others, they rely simply on hanging out at Starbucks with their laptops hoping the attractive doctor they've been eying for a month will finally say hello. Yet, there is a woman in Montana, who has decided to go for guys named David. Not just any David will do either. She's looking f...
Normally, I watch Castle on Monday nights. However, tonight was a rerun and nothing else was on TV so I found myself watch the Spanish channel Univision and began watching this telenovela, which is a Spanish soap opera. I am fluent in Spanish and have lived in Mexico (seriously), but I have a hard time understanding these shows because the actors talk so fast.
Here is the synopsis and review...

Flat Stanley, adored by school children and teachers alike, left the Betty Ford clinic last month after entering around Christmas of 2010. When he entered rehab, he was sullen and pale. Not to mention high as a kite and cussing out the nurses. After a month long bender of crack and tequila, friends checked him into rehab. He looks like his perky old self now, and I was able to sit down with hi...
