NEWSFLASH: Josh Ozersky is a Dweeb

March 16th, 2010

We’ve always been leery of the boring, idiotic world of Josh Ozersky (and the numerous incarnations of his online bullshit), but a video segment from The Soup was difficult to resist. As you might expect, Ozersky— a "clueless, overbloated, publicist-indentured, sycophant[ic]" blogger— was in fact pilloried by No Reservations (and subsequently, The Soup), a cringe-inducing event publicized by Ozersky’s food blogger peers and former colleagues. (All of Ozersky’s blog entries read like interminable clueless, overbloated, publicist-indentured, sycophantic pontifications tapped out by the jittery, chubby fingers of a man who can’t wait to get his hands on his next donut-bacon-cheeseburger). We include it here entirely for purposes of education: Remember, if you’re a trite, pathetic, snooze-inducing dweebshit, don’t go on national television.

This just in, from Juan Andres Garcia:

"That was taken at 44th St and 6th Ave at the southeast corner sewer. Yes, those are eels, and yes, they are real. Actually, three slithered out…"

Umm… Yum? Uh, excuse me, I have to go and vomit now.

My Week Off: Paris

January 13th, 2010

The bar/restaurant at the hotel, Mama Shelter, in the 20th Arrondissement in Paris. - James Mielke

paris_mamashelter2

All of the rooms in this Philipe Starck-designed hotel are equipped with the new iMacs. And they’re set up so that you can take a picture of yourself, e-mail it to yourself, and also allow the hotel to use it. It is then displayed on one of the many monitors they have spread around the hotel, in the restaurant, on their website, and in your room (if you choose ‘photo book’). Pretty cool feature for your exhibitionist self. - James Mielke

You’re absolutely right, dear reader! Thank you! Who says the holidays are over? They’re over when we say they’re over. The gifts just keep on coming…
