Contraceptive Battle: This Slut Votes vs. Rush Limbaugh
Rush Limbaugh set off quite a media storm when he called Sandra Fluke, a Georgetown student, a "slut" for being on birth control. Jenna Soard has responded in kind.

A Guide to Being Unemployed
The economic collapse back in 2008 left many people, including me, dealing with lay-offs, high unemployment, and less jobs to go after, and even though the landscape is improving it hasn't fully recovered.

USDA Aims to Crush Obesity Epidemic with Flashy New Food Plate
When it comes to eating, Americans aren't exactly known for showing restraint. However, you can hardly blame nutritional ignorance for our country's ballooning waistlines. Back in 1992, the USDA adopted the Food Pyramid to help educate Americans about the components of a well-balanced diet. The chart was cribbed from Denmark, where it had been published 14 years prior, and offered a simple breakdown of food groups and recommended serving sizes. It might not have been a flawless model, ...

7 Stupid Things You Do At Restaurants
Everyone hates their summer job. It's just a fact of life. But no one, and I mean no one, hates their summer job more than someone in the food industry. Do you think anyone enjoys asking if you want fries with your Big Mac? No, they don't. The ultimate den of suffering.

Toronto Parents Determined to Confuse Kid by Ignoring Baby’s Sex
There are plenty of parents who like to condescendingly point out that until you have kids, there's no way you can understand what it's like to be a parent. And, while this might be true to an extent, there are plenty of things so stupid they still warrant a bit of armchair quarterbacking from anyone with common sense. One recent example is a Toronto couple that has decided to conceal the sex of their baby as "a tribute to freedom and choice in place of limitation, a stand up to ...

Want to Look Like a Working Man Without Actually Working? Lucky Brand Has You Covered
A while back I brought up a t-shirt sold by Wet Seal that took the English language from behind and humiliated it so much, it's getting a "ripped from the headlines" episode on Law and Order: SVU. Today's shirt doesn't bastardize proper spelling and grammar, but it does take a dump on the hearts of working stiffs in blue collar jobs. Want the illusion of being a hard-working mechanic who gets grime under your fingernails and comes home with an aching back, grease in your ...

What is the world coming to when you can't even walk into a McDonald's without the threat of bodily harm? Recently a woman was viciously beaten inside of a Baltimore area McDonald's while customers and employees barely looked up from their Super-Sized meals.

Chicago School Puts a Ban on Packed Lunches
If a certain Chicago school district gets its way, brown bag lunches (including lunch boxes and those goofy zip-up lunch carriers as well) will be a thing of the past. That's right, every student will be getting their lunch from the cafeteria. I don't know about you, but I don't have any fond memories of school lunches. I never find myself with a hankering for mystery meat or the unrecognizable meal of the day. I know school lunches have come a long way, but I don't think they&...
