Damn, Millennials, Pizza Hut Thinks You're Super Boring
Much of the content of this Washington Post report on the diverging fortunes of delivery pizza giants Domino's and Pizza Hut—the former is thriving, the latter not s'much—passes harmlessly overhead, as remote and incomprehensible as solar wind washing harmlessly over the Earth's magnetic field.

LeBron Denies Forgetting Which Team He Plays For Now
When you've worn the same thing 100 times a year for four years (athletes are like cartoon characters), you probably shove all the "who's on my team" decision-making to the reflexive part of your brain. So is it really so inconceivable that for one second, in the heat of the action, LeBron James tho...
Bell's Two-Hearted Ale Is Contrarian-Proof (Dammit)
A couple of my friends recently went to Denver for the Great American Beer Festival, and they stayed out there for at least a week afterward to tour the local breweries, which made me jealous and depressed. Jealous for the obvious reason, and depressed because it forced me to realize that I'll nev...

God Can't Save You From Ebola, But This Song Might
Not too long ago, I spent six months living in Dallas. I found it to be a horrid place full of old-school, overt racists and liberal champions who threaten to fuck young journalists in the ass. That said, I have a contingent of homies there that I love with all my heart. I enjoy waking up, poppin...
Michael Keaton Forever: <em>Birdman</em>, Reviewed
