Hey, everybody. Welcome to the first Allthyngs Blog post. The basic idea is that it’s a blog, but instead of being written by one person who’s more interested in himself than he is in being interesting, we have a bunch of people who are actually interesting. We had a big decision to make between doing our first post about the Apple tablet unveiling and Obama’s State of the Union, and we went with the tablet. It’s a pretty nice commentary on our generation’s priorities. I don’t want to give you a whole rundown of what’s in the damn thing, so if you want that go to this post on Gizmodo. Anyway, without further ado…

After a long break, I was eagerly looking forward to the return of The Office in my life. To my horror, the episode was a CLIP SHOW. First of all, I hate clip shows.

This is easily the funniest video I’ve seen on the internet this week, and the more you love Jersey Shore the funnier it will be. The question is– well actually I have about a million questions about how this video was made, but this is the biggest–did the kids already have accents, or was [...]

Gilbert Arenas pretended to shoot guns in the middle of the team huddle before the Wizards faced the 76ers on Tuesday night.  I actually don’t understand him or how he could possibly think that’s funny since he hasn’t received his punishment yet, and he could be going to jail.  On his twitter page (twitter.com/gilbertarenas), Arenas [...]

There are many times when I find myself wishing I lived in New York, and now is definitely one of them.  There’s gonna be a food vendor that sells “artisan” grilled cheese, whatever that means.  There’s even a chocolate one, wow wow wow wow.  Will this honestly get good business?  Also, the sandwiches are a [...]

From the people who brought you the hilarious recaps of “NYC Prep,” New York mag presents the top ten catchphrases from last week’s episode of Jersey Shore.  I think my dream job is to be the person at New York Mag who gets to watch these trashy TV shows and then write hysterical commentary.  Plus, [...]
