    So a media end-times freelancer is blessed with a shot writing for the Times and he meets the opportunity with hitting up Help a Reporter Out. How about trying to leave your apartment next time deadweight? #faketrends

    I don't know what "startang" is, but I'm guessing it's dirty and it involves Tang. If kids are doing it, it's the next Rainbow Parties - I've got your next trend piece, NYT! #faketrends

    @sympathyforthebasementcat: Seriously, how do you miss the "i" for the "a"? Typing with mattens on?

    Unless of course that's not the typo, in which case this query should be forwarded to Harvey Levin or the boys at WWTDD for more information about star tang.

    I'm looking forward to the anecdotal, stats-free column blind to the fact that even the show portrays the Glee club as full of unwanted, gay dorks that the jocks view with suspicion. #faketrends

    There's something really amazing about Australian satire. I still recall fondly the series they put out before the Australian Olympics - "The Games". When they suggested making the yellow ring in the opening ceremony out of leashed bees, my dad and I just howled. So hilarious.

    @Pope John Peeps II: Here's the bees clip: [www.youtube.com]

    And this is a clip of John Howard apologizing for aboriginal mistreatment. Skip to the last 15 seconds for maybe the world's greatest punchline. [www.youtube.com]

    Watching the Australian version of Mad Men there, one is compelled to believe that their 1960's were more like our contemporary times than previously thought. Could use some more Joan though.

    In the Williamsburg Justice System the hipsters are represented by two separate, yet equally ironic groups. The trustafarians with their skinny jeans and PBR'S, and the grifters who persuades the hipsters to throw their hotdogs down Kari's hall way. These are their stories."

    Why doesn't little miss kari do it herself as community service?
    Barring that, Jandi Lin, who has a back tat of a phoenix that puts hipster-rina's to shame could OWN this part. And do her own stunts.
