8. Hey, people who work for “good causes” by standing in the middle of the sidewalk with a clipboard and asking us if we believe that homelessness should continue or if we want to fight child abuse. Of course we don’t think homelessness should continue! Of course we hate children being abused! What we don’t like is your passive agressive questioning technique, and the fact that you think that you can trick us into stopping and signing your petition/giving you money with it. Get off the streets, and onto a computer, where you can send us an email reminder to donate that we can simply delete without having to step around you. (Similarly, yes, we do like comedy, and we’re happy to tell someone where we got our hair done, but it’s not you.)
Jen Doll does it again. On a related note, we donate $15 a month to Greenpeace thanks to the St. Marks gauntlet of clipboard holders. We consider it good karma points (and also, we can’t figure out how to cancel it)
Photoshop: The reason why girls (and guys) think they’re never good enough.
…Or what I’d like to call lies and manipulation.
Libertine Dream: If you take a look at Libertine’s Spring 2012 collection—an eyesore to say the least—you’ll understand why a male model in a bikini brief (look #33) is the only thing worth mentioning from this show.

“Of all the photos from that day — the planes exploding, people falling from the sky, people running covered in ash, the wreckage — THIS photo by Angel Franco should have won the Pulitzer. It is not Art; it’s so simple, so powerful and encapsulates everything about that day for those of us not actually at Ground Zero. It will be seared into my memory forever. It’s raw human emotion and it says it all: you either looked, crying, in horror, or you hid your eyes. It makes me cry every time I see it. It may be the most powerful photograph I’ve ever seen and I am lucky and honored to have worked with and know the man who created it.” — Brent Murray
Snap Judgement: With the Spring 2012 collections are underway in New York, followed by London, Milan and Paris, it’s best to take them in as quick as possible. Why not start with quick run-through of Balenciaga’s Spring 2012 men’s collection shown a few months ago.

— Chuck, on the topic of Kriss Kross making you jump… jump.
When Gumby Attacks: A man who dressed up as Gumby tried to rob a San Diego 7-Eleven. He was foiled in his attempts after the store clerk, apparently annoyed, declared “I don’t have time for this.”

Fashion Meets Finance: Donna Karan’s DKNYMen brand took over Nasdaq’s headquarters in Times Square today to unveil its spring/summer 2012 collection of menswear most suitable for a man who works for—you got it!—Nasdaq. Bored male models posed in a boardroom while LED screens projected DKNYMen’s latest advertising campaign to the masses in Times Square.
Despite Americans winning the “coolest” award, which, duh, we question the results of this poll. They dubbed Spanish people the coolest Europeans, Brazilians the coolest Latin Americans, and Belgians the globe’s least cool people. Belgians! Have you had Belgian beer, or Belgian fries? Have you gazed at the Manneken Pis, or spent any time whatsoever on FamousBelgians.net? How is Belgium not cool?
