What makes this ad so effective is the haunting soundtrack, which was lifted from a Lifetime made-for-teevee documentary about date rape. Remember, NRSC: You’re not a victim, you’re a survivor.

It’s time to assess whether you’ve been doing enough drinking on outdoor patios this summer. Well, HAVE YOU? The three-day-drunk-fest that marks the end of summer is but one month away. Whether your fun comes courtesy of slave reparations or not, you can have just as lavish a last month of summer as Sasha Obama, [...]

Wednesday, August 4: Potenza’s summer special has everything you need to be happy in the summertime when it’s hot and you want to be anywhere but in DC: figs stuffed with cheese, meatballs made with veal, mushrooms and cheese, nutella candies, cannolis, and fancy Italian wine.

Further proof that Our Media still conceives of Barack Obama as a 27-year-old NBA All Star. Oh man, look at the size of that boner on John McCain! Why won’t Walnuts show any nip action, however? TAKE IT OFF, TAKE IT OFF, SHOW YR NIPPLES. [Photo illustration by Andrew Eccles for New York Magazine]

Tomorrow is quittin’ time for Hillary Clinton, so today she threw a big farewell bash for her 500-person staff at her Georgetown home, Whitehaven Manor Castle, “in the back yard by the swimming pool.” And although Hillary could’ve served the troops just fine, thank you, with her trademark potato salad recipe — which consists of [...]
