Reality Check

Reality Check is an allegedly user-generated ad for tampon/pads/liners. It mocks the soft-focus, spinning-women-frolicking-on-the-beach current motif that is used to hawk feminine hygiene products. Quite artfully executed too, I must say. Good work.

TMI: But can it make me switch from plastics to my least-favorite cotton-based variety brand? Only time will tell. Enjoy!

Annuale. Once a year. Period.

Today on the internet: this video is more TV than internet, but everyone knows the two media systems are slowly converging into one self-cognizant, attention-gripping being. That's good enough rationale to post here.

Winter 2008 was the first time SNL was sort of funny again, thanks to Tina Fey's contributions. Tina Fey is a woman of many talents: in addition to writing and starring in 30 Rock, Mean Girls, and "Mom Jeans: the commercial," she can also single-handedly deliver electoral votes in Texas, Ohio, and Rhode Island.

So please: go to a store, buy a hat, and get ready to hold the $*@# onto it. Then watch this video.
