It was not so long ago that the Burger King brand revolved around being perceived as ultra Machismo Man-ism. However as of late it would appear they have dropped their masculine overtones for more topical flavor. Their newest advertising seems to play right into the mindsets of a growing consumer base that is plagued by a lost sense of irony. I feel hard pressed to find a company that has turned a faster and more complete 180 in terms of brand then Burger King's attempt to appeal to this new and growing "hipster" market. This seems akin to the Blackwater Defense Group partnering with Disney for the next Shrek Movie. Next Burger King will be offering Whoppers in Setain "meat alternative" versions. Thank god Taco Bell has not lost its way!

the iPhone - google calendar - PC - Sync Peace Treaty
Are you an pc user that owns an iphone who uses Google apps and services to help keep your life in order? If you are I bet your really frustrated in regards to how useless the ical is on the iphone because there seems to be no way to sync your Google calendar to it without owning a mac. I know I know, Google has come out with a Google app for the iphone that is supposed to make their world and the iphone a little more seamless. However the calendar interface via the iphone sux bigtime. Well thanks to the people at NuevaSync its now possible, and you don't even have to download anything! NuevaSync uses the iphones ms exchange server capabilities to ensure peace between these waring cyber-factions. The best part, as if everything I have said isn't the best part already, its a free service. So what are you waiting for, get to clickin!

Now I have seen everything
In the world of film in stage you will be hard pressed to find an actor more famous and more open about their homosexuality then Nathan Lane. I'm not exactly sure when he came out of the closet but this little piece of television history is just grand! In 1985 Nathan filmed episode 5 of season 2 of Miami Vice, it was titled "Buddies". I wont bore you with the specifics and to be honest hes only in about 5 minutes of the episode. But lets get to the grand part. He plays a stand-up comedian who also happens to be.. (dramatic pause) a rapist! And no I don't mean man on man Abercrombie & Fitch rapist, I mean the more vanilla man on woman flavor! Peep it here at hulu. I so hope this was after he came out of the closet.

Awe what a cute baby... no wait.
There seems to be this new trend in Philadelphia that is driving me out of my mind. Hip young couples seem to be taking their toddlers out to the bars on Friday. Im not sure if they think this is some fun new accessory or if they see are trying to prove to themselves and their friends that having a kid hasn't really changed their social lives at all. Either way, please stop.
Let me paint a picture for you young power parents, its Friday night, you have just finished a long work week and all you want is to sit down, sip a cold beer and bitch about yer co-workers with yer co-workers and let the night of drinks take you where it takes you. Wait what is that I hear in the background, a screaming kid. No a screaming gaggle of kids. Its a bar not Applebees. This is not really the right spot to take your screaming bundle of joy, and I have news for you. That flesh satchel the doctors cut from your girlfriends nether region has changed your social life, be responsible enough to realize that. Im not saying you can never go out again, but make arrangements, get a baby sitter, leave it in the car, do something, but stop bringing your kid to the bar! I swear the first parent that comes up to me at a bar on a Friday night and asks me to watch my language around their little kid im punching in the penis.
This is almost making me wish the city would lift the smoking ban! Well not that close but real close.

Like a wet baby bird
Claire Danes was recently spotted at the beach in all her 10 year old boy body glory. Like a wet baby bird! I have heard that to make extra money over the summer months Claire was getting inside of Queen Latifah and working her like a robot so the Queen could enjoy being "her ideal size".

One of my favorite dj's in the world, NYC's own Dylan Drazen has posted a new set. "Explotxion", live from Almeria, Spain. Dylan should really receive some sort of electronic music humanitarian award for posting his sets and mix tapes dating all the way back to 1998.
