Get on Craigslist!

Remember Craigslist? Sure you do, that’s where everyone used to go to get hookers and cheap furniture. Well there’s much more to the site if you know where to look. Craigslist is probably the only site on the internet where you can find a job, an apartment, the furniture to put in it, a significant other and someone to play tennis with on weekends. Even if you don’t trust Craigslist transactions it’s a font of simple entertainment as well. Surprisingly active forums cover a broad range of topics.  Where else can you read dozens of haiku written by the insane? Or the worst poetry about death that exists? Or offensive jokes? Not all in one site, I promise you.-SB

Watch “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon”

If you’re a night owl, you really should just watch this show when it airs. If you aren’t (or, like me, are incredibly busy at 1am), you really ought to catch up on the show through hulu. What Jimmy Fallon is doing is not revolutionary, as the medium of ‘talk show’ can only be successful within given parameters. That said, Jimmy Fallon is changing the game. There is audience participation like no other show and an incredibly savvy use of technology, be it twitter, web exclusive material or any other way that Jimmy Fallon can thank you for watching him. And that, dear readers, is what truly sets Fallon apart from other talk show hosts. David Letterman would spit on your grave, Jay Leno would cockslap you into oblivion and Conan is a well-documented dick head. Jimmy Fallon, however, is so happy to be doing what he does that it’s like a fucking puppy is hosting a show about chasing cars and getting treats. And fuck you if you’re on the internet and you say you wouldn’t watch that. I know what the internet’s for. – JRN

WATCH MISFITS

I don’t hide that fact that I’m a bit of an Anglophile, but it’s only because 93.2% of the time, they do things better. A falsified statistic wouldn’t be that specific, would it? Misfits takes the world of superheroes and makes it dark. You know what, not dark, dirty. Not in a Nolan type way, in the way Handcock wishes it came close to approaching. A group of juvenile delinquents gets powers in a freak storm. This neither A- makes them all love each other, or B- makes them become superheroes. They continue to drink, do drugs, steal and fuck indiscriminately. Not since Buffy was on did a show mix genre, drama, and humor so well. The powers are part of the fun, one character has the ability to go back in time 30 seconds. That’s it, just 30 measly seconds. Another is a lactokinetic. For those not well versed in comics or prefixes, that’s someone who controls dairy with their mind. If you can believe it, it’s even more badass then it sounds! Hulu currently has 3 seasons of Misfits streaming, so you have no excuse. Unless you don’t get the Internet, and are reading our weekly printed publication.-MG
