If Your Friends Hated Everything Like They Hate Sports
We apply the logic used to criticize sports to criticize EVERYTHING.
As someone who hates sports, I’m sorry.
Previously on Mad Men - Parody (by saxmankk)
What if they made the “Previously on Mad Men” sequences and pointless and unhelpful as the “Next Time on Mad Men” sequences?

Never made this connection beyond the “huh, funny, same name.” Well done.
I put my English major mind to use and unpacked as much meaning as I could from the Don/Dawn name strangeness on Mad Men. Read the post, if you’re of an English major mind and an overactive imagination. There’s a lot there, it turns out: doubling, a whole vocabulary of dark and light and possibly a hint about why Dawn may be the one who unmasks Don Draper.
This is my new friend. Watch this video to see how I met him. http://youtu.be/0CyWgcpBso4 @TheRock @screenjunkies #YearoftheRock

“Teenage couples engaged in a “Sniff Game” where a Kleenex is passed from nose to nose at a house party” Oklahoma, 1948 by Alfred Eisenstadt (via LIFE)

The story behind Sriracha
With a distinctive bottle and taste, Sriracha has gone from an unpronounceable challenge to a staple sauce for many Americans. In the U.S. alone, $60 million worth of the sauce was sold last year alone.
But it wasn’t always such a prevalent item on store shelves. David Tran, the man responsible for popularizing the hot sauce, had a long journey beforehand:
When North Vietnam’s communists took power in South Vietnam, Tran, a major in the South Vietnamese army, fled with his family to the U.S. After settling in Los Angeles, Tran couldn’t find a job — or a hot sauce to his liking.
So he made his own by hand in a bucket, bottled it and drove it to customers in a van. He named his company Huy Fong Foods after the Taiwanese freighter that carried him out of Vietnam.

Ok, well done here guys.
My grandfather may have served in WWII, but was he involved in this? Sorry gramps, but this is my flag on Iwo Jima.
All joking aside, this is mindless fun and I’m actually pretty proud of it. Please enjoy!
Dear Los Angeles, Please Help
Fernando, the guy who landscapes our duplex, just had his pickup stolen right in front of our place. All his landscaping gear was inside, essentially his entire business. If anyone—especially on the East Side—sees a 1989 silver Toyota with cages of landscaping gear in the back, let me know, or maybe just call the cops.
Please reblog regardless if you live in LA. Fernando is a great guy who doesn’t deserve this.
