I covered a competitive eating contest for my friends at SeriousEats. Except that it wasn’t much of a competition - there was only one guy eating, and the record had never been set before, so it was pretty much a pointless show of extreme gluttony. But they had free beer, and Schlomo came with […]
After my friend Dana who is a genius told me that I had to stop being a retard and give in to the Facebooks, I spent a few hours and created a Facebook Apps version of Iwtst. It lives, appropriately, on Facebook. It will tell your friends what movies you want to […]
