i like my coffee like i like my metal

Black, bitter, and full of spite.

I like this cover. He’s not the greatest singer, but he’s got a lot of passion and heart that you can see.

What’s even better are actually positive YouTube comments. CRAZY!

motherjones: OK, so let’s get this straight. At their shadow convention in Charlotte, the GOP is handing out “WE BUILT THAT” Lego sets. So you can take your free plastic pre-molded interlocking pieces and erect them into the object pictured on the front of the bag. And then you can say… what, exactly? “I BUILT THAT. After some worker manned a hot mold overseas, and another one flew it over, and another stocked it… and, of course, after our culture decided to place a value on plastic construction blocks, and our elected officials made sure they’re BPA-free and don’t pose a choking hazard to me and my children, nephews, nieces, and cousins.” AUUUGH Sorry, just ranting. No man is an island. No one creates anything in a vacuum. It takes a village to make a Lego construction. And everything else. Who are the anti-social weenies who can’t see that?

Happy labor day! Let’s remember the unions and working brothers and sisters!

shortformblog: Soup for hipsters: Campbell’s, in an effort to sell soup to the metrosexual crowd, is ditching the cans and coming up with a variety of new flavors that are decidedly targeted to the Whole Foods audience — well, you know, minus the whole “organic” thing. Cans are out. Pouches are in. Andy Warhol is rolling in his grave. (ht @pbump) EDIT: Maybe Warhol won’t be rolling in his grave: Campbell’s also considered the artist in its recent branding drive, with some Warhol-themed cans. Stupid marketing for stupid consumers. Pee in a bag.
