So there is this guy who has managed to eat 25,000 Big Macs in his life (with the proof to back it up, apparently--right, 'cause when he first ever ate a Big Mac he kept the packaging?). I don't get why this is a big achievement that the world needs recorded and splashed all over the media (ok, so the digital age tends to inflate the marketability of just any story).

He was covered in the documentary Supersize Me. Wasn't that enough? Does anyone care that this dude eats the same thing all the time? NO. I tend to do the same thing, too. I am a habitual eater. Lately, I've been stuck on pretzels. Basically all I've been eating, really. No one cares. Not me, not you, not Rold Gold, no one.

Ahh, so it is springtime and there is an unfortunate amount of wedding-themed comedies coming to theaters. Entertainment Web sites think it is funny how all these kinds of movies seem to use the same lame jokes and plot points. NY Mag's Vulture thinks so, as does TV Without Pity. I think its funny that more than one Web site is running articles about this. Maybe coming up with an original idea isn't as easy as people think.

Hey, Quiet Down that Ruckus

Apparently hand-holding can be a loud activity. What have I been doing wrong all these years?
