yendiI'd never heard of comedian Sam Morril, and based on this piece and this one, it might have something to do with his having no actual talent or sense of humor. Trigger warning for rape "jokes."
In case anyone anywhere doesn't already know that Abercrombie and Fitch is an awful place that doesn't deserve any business unless you're an arsonist, here's more proof. Incidentally, I typed "my friends who like Abercrombie and Fitch" into my Facebook search and was happy to have no one turn up.
On the privilege afforded to Frank Rich's (largely untalented) son (and the Times's complete willingness to pretend no such privilege exists; if you believe that the Public Editor really served any real ombudsman purpose, I've got this bridge in Brooklyn you can have cheap!). The article also touches on the similar (but at least generally acknowledged) privilege Lena Dunham experiences.
Happier links:
There's a web series ("Blue") starring Julia Styles. I'm posting this pretty much so I remember to check it out. Between Netflix, Amazon, and shorter venues, keeping up with the first-run stuff online is getting really tough.
And Kill Screen's piece on Hannah Epstein's attempt to undermine corporate copyright intrigues me.
And there's a new Humble Bundle, with Doublefine games! I'm waiting for payday to snag it, but having all of these games finally on the Mac is a good thing.
