This is the greatest mathematical representation of rap.  I’m madly trying to piece together all the references, but love the Mike Jones, Beastie Boys and David Banner inside jokes.

I haven’t laughed this hard at a motorhome race in a long time. Well actually I don’t think I’ve ever seen footage of motorhomes racing. If this is what retirement will look like then I can’t wait to get old.This is a piece of footage from the UK series Top Gear.

Hussein Chalayan has often been criticized in the fashion world for over-intellectualizing clothes. After seeing his Fall 2007 collection, I’d say that this is one art piece where the critical discourse and work seem to sync up.

Premise: Average dude manages to hook up with a hot girl, but he gets her pregnant. Then she turns out to be a total bitch. He losses most of his friends and he’s way in life. She barely manages to hang onto her job. He tries to be supportive, but she shuns him. Their doctor doesn’t show at the most crucial time, but they do manage to pop out the baby. The end.

Save yourself the time and only watch this scene:
