"No Fringe Benefits for Emos"

Posted by on Thu, May 24, 2012 at 3:19 PM

A dire warning from Australia (a fringe = bangs, for those not in the know), beginning with that amazing headline: "No fringe benefits for emos as haircuts that flop over one eye could result in generation of young people with lazy eyes."

Under all those long lopsided fringes, a hidden danger is lurking.

A leading optometrist has warned children and teenagers are risking their eyesight for the sake of fashion.

Favoured by celebrities including Reece Mastin and Justin Bieber, the current zeal for haircuts with fringes that flop over one eye could result in a generation of young people with lazy eyes.

"If a young emo chap has a fringe covering one eye all the time, that eye won't see a lot of detail," Mr Hogan said. "And if it happens from a young age, that eye can become amblyotic."

The piece goes on to warn that "a lack of direct sunlight" in the eye hidden under the bang-swoop could "result in short sightedness," and a "veteran hairdresser... fears the hairstyle force[s] many to tilt their heads to one side in order to see."

An entire generation struck down with optometric issues in their prime! Comb your hair immediately!

What Do You Think Of Tom Cruise's "Rockin' New Look?"

Posted by on Wed, May 23, 2012 at 11:55 AM

W Magazine —"Who, What, Where, When, And Why In the World Of Style"—has a music issue this month and is on newsstands now. The feature fashion spread is called "Fashion Groupies: Tom Cruise Rocks A New Look." That certainly *is* a new look for Tommy—a coke spoon necklace, manliner, rings, duct tape, black nail polish, and holy-wowzers, a skull-gun-pointing-right-at-penis tattoo, AND a new nipple tattoo. SERIOUSLY, WOULD YA LOOK AT THAT NIPPLE TAT?

It's all for Broadway-play-turned-feature-film Rock Of Ages. Cruise plays a '80s "rocker" named Stacee Jaxx. From the short W Magazine interview:

There are a lot of sexy scenes in this movie: At one point you're climbing a stripper pole; in another scene, you're grinding up against a Rolling Stone reporter played by Malin Akerman.
CRUISE: I knew we had to push the sexuality because of the nature of the character and the songs...

What do you think of his new look, his pushed sexuality, on this cover? And is the image of Tom Cruise climbing a stripper pole sexy? Let's discuss.

Science has determined that ghosts exist, and whenever anyone says “um” or “uh,” a dead relative is riding their brain, wearing only a cowboy hat. This is the only known way the dead manifest themselves. The truth is, the only reason research ever ceases is that cowboy hats make science uncomfortable.

When a piece of my rental car’s undercarriage flew into the windshield of a car behind me on the freeway, the rental service responded by gluing a purple glittery spoiler onto the rental car and giving me a matching pair of sunglasses. I worried less about why I am the sort of person who can be placated by this than how it was obvious to them. Every single person who has ever upset me has given me a glittery spoiler and matching sunglasses, whether the source of my distress was a car or not.
