So the good people at Flavorpill decided to host a party at the American Museum of Natural History. I know, boooring. Wrong! Check how they freaked it… (more »)

 Travelers take note: This is not how you roll through the airport.

“300 Brolic” is the latest single from Fat Joe’s forthcoming album, The Elephant In The Room. We must give props to Joey as the last Bronx rapper alive, but who at 300+ pounds, is in the best shape of their life?

Sidewalk chalk artist Ellis Gallagher, first introduced to those outside of Brooklyn here, is suing the city for 5 million dollars. Apparently, my man is tired of getting harassed (and arrested) for what doesn’t even technically qualify as graffiti.

That Lance Stephenson is a bad, bad man. Well, at 17 I guess he’s still a boy, but the kid dropped 27 on Holy Cross yesterday, all while having sat out the entire second quarter! Plenty of people are trying to peg him as the next Lebron James, but if you ask me he’s the real life Jesus Shuttlesworth (fine spanish girlfriend and all). If you haven’t already, you need to check out bornready.tv for the webisodes of his reality show, “Born Ready.” Watch Lance’s story as it unfolds…for free! 

Whether you plan to Ba-rack The Vote or not, tomorrow night at the Knitting Factory, something funny this way comes. Get yourself out to the “Get the Laughs and Votes Out for Obama” show featuring Aziz Ansari and Eugene Mirman (both featured in our upcoming issue), with Heather Lawless, Andrea Rosen, Slovin and Allen, Todd Barry, David Rees, Whitest Kids U Know, Laura Krafft, Greg Johnson and more. The choice is yours, laugh or die.

Check out this clip for the latest edition of the Syphon Filter series, Logan’s Shadow. And if you haven’t already, for goodness sakes, set up that harpoon mount!
