The root of all men’s desire is to have sex. When you brush your teeth, it’s to have sex. When you eat, it’s, well, I gotta have energy to have sex. When you get dressed, you think, Oh, maybe if I wear these jeans I’ll be more likely to have sex. - Seth Rogen

I wouldn't recommend this conceptual bloody table by John Nouanesing for the kids room, but it's disturbingly cool.
Ashley has more information on this luminous hotel room at the Grammercy Park Hotel. I want to stay there!

Hardee har har.
Just a few photos from a rooftop kegger in the east village in this recap.
My night started off inauspiciously as I rode a subway train that was covered in blood. This was the main source of it but there were blood splatters all over this train. And then David Caruso showed up and we were all like, "Dude, you can't see the blood when you still have your sunglasses on." And then he replied, "It's okay. I'm CSI." We said "That doesn't even make any sense!"
When this drunk half-passed out Hispanic guy noticed that I was going to take a photo of the blood, he tossed his banana peel on to the blood.
And there was food. This was the source that I was tapping into towards the end of the party when I kept disappearing and reappearing with brownies.
Stan: "Yo yo, check it out!" Hahaha.
My friend Hector (and his friend) who hit me up with the head's up about this party. And in another example of this city being way too small: It turns out that Hector's roommate, a random situation from Craigslist, in that building is my (still relatively new) roommate's boyfriend. Cue, It's a small world afterrrr allll.
This girl admirably tried to take charge of the situation after the kegs were kicked and every drop of alcohol was consumed.
Hector hooked us up with a secret stash from his apartment.
O Canada!
Get a glimpse into the denizens of the Shore where low aspirations, hair gel, and burnt skin reign supreme. Watch until the very end for the ridiculous no-holds barred catfight. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FjLaJO8QEuw]

Many know that over the years, especially in the old cheesy TV series Batman writers intentionally and unintentionally included double entendres lines and scenes, such as this hysterical one that Boing Boing points out:
And from the comments, although clearly photoshopped, it's still sophomorically hilarious:
MRod Nation sends a best of luck to Kaizar who, inspired by the likes of Oprah and past celebrity marathon runners, will be running his first marathon this weekend out there in San Francisco.
Kaizar, I've collected a few videos from which you can draw motivation for your upcoming race, starting with the trailer for the movie starring your state's governor.
1. The message in The Running Man is that no matter what happens, at the least your marathon doesn't involve a dystopic government sending assassins in motorbikes and cars to kill you.

2. Of course this entry wouldn't be complete without the famous training montage scene from Rocky I. I think you should try to pysch out your fellow racers by doing alternating one-handed pushups.

3. And in honor of San Francisco here's a clip from Top Gun, the inspirational film that broke gay barriers everywhere.

Don't Googlecheat. What's your best guess?
Correct winner gets their choice of either kudos or one shameless plug of their choosing on my blog. The answer will be provided after 24 hour-ish.
I don't quite know the context of this image that depicts Wolverine infected by the Venom symbiote, but I think it definitely qualifies as bad ass. Feel free to agree with me on this one.

I thought the twitter message sent by this woman who was visiting her Ob/Gyn during the recent earthquake in LA has been the most genius twit so far. Until today. Moye, another LAian tops that one with a Twitter update "that will always be 100% true and applicable to my status, regardless of hour, day, season, weather, and mood." Find out what it is here.
