So, Who Did Jennifer Love Hewitt Jerk Off This Week?: The Hottest Guy Yet

Rich Juzwiak · 05/21/12 12:36PM

On this week's episode of The Jennifer Love Hewitt Handjob Hour The Client List , Love's character Riley ran the wack-a-thon of a former college track star. He was beautiful. And that was that. Also featured in this episode was some actual fucking in the massage table, by Riley's nemesis with a menacing squint, Selena (Alicia Lagano). When confronted, Selena exclaimed, "Like I'm the first ever to knock boots in a treatment room," and my opinion of her skyrocketed. Meanwhile, Riley was also ready to engage in some arm aerobics with another, not as beautiful client of hers, but all he wanted to do was talk about some girl that he liked and his lack of confidence. Don't you hate it when guys don't shut up and accept their handjob?

Humbled Men Take the Jobs of Womenfolk

Hamilton Nolan · 05/21/12 10:40AM

How bad is America's neverending recession? So bad that The American Man—mind enfeebled by Axe body spray fumes and Spanx-induced circulatory cutoff—now thinks nothing of taking a job that has traditionally been held primarily by women, so that he may earn money to pay for food, clothing, and shelter. The evidence is clear: "An analysis of census data by The New York Times shows that from 2000 to 2010, occupations that are more than 70 percent female accounted for almost a third of all job growth for men, double the share of the previous decade."

Oh tra la, fiddle dee dee, dance 'round all of the Maypoles, for Verlyn Klinkenborg hath taken pen in hand to scratch out yet another dispatch from the mild climes of rural America, which is mightily preferable to the indignities of the city, where all of Verlyn Klinkenborg's readers live. This week's fascinating topic: lawns. We got our hands on the rough draft, before the cityfied editors ruined Verlyn's vision.

The Avengers Sunk Your Battleship

Louis Peitzman · 05/20/12 03:12PM

Still in the number one spot this week, The Avengers earned another $55.1 million, well outperforming Battleship, which took in a measly $25.3 million. That might not sound too bad, but given Battleship's budget, it's pretty embarrassing. In fact, this is the worst domestic opening ever for a film with a budget of at least $200 million.

A Night At the 2012 Clio Awards On Mushrooms

Emma Carmichael · 05/20/12 03:10PM

At about 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday night, while standing in the Roosevelt Rotunda at the American Museum of Natural History on 81st Street and Central Park West, my friend Sam and I stuff an eighth of psychedelic mushrooms into egg rolls and eat them. It is time for the 2012 Clio Awards, the advertising world's version of the Oscars.
