[WHO GIVES A SHIT] Do You Like PB Teen?

Do you like PB Teen? Cause, holy shit, I LOVE IT SO HARD.

It's like I know these bitches are trying to appeal to 14-year-olds, but I dont' care...I like it too! I mean, yes: there is a crapload of stuff that I would not feel comfortable rocking unless I also had Justin Bieber posters on my wall, but also there is genuinely some chic, CHEAP ass stuff there that could look great in my apt (mostly accessories and accent furniture, but still). If you can ignore the puffy paint, glue stick, dorm room prop styling and wade through, I promise you'll find some gems. And also if I throw the PB Teen box out as soon as it arrives, and don't tell anyone (oops), no one will be the wiser.

[INTERVIEW'D] George From 9 By Design

Yo! Check it! Here is Part One of our exclusive interview with George Hribar, from Bravo TV's new hit show 9 By Design.

I watch a lot of TV...like A LOT. So I know what the fuck I'm talking about when it comes to "must see TV." And 9 By Design, Bravo's new reality TV show about Bob & Cortney Novogratz, their design firm Sixx Design, and their gigantic family was, hands down, my fave new reality show of the season. Even though there were only 6 eps in season one, I watched each and every one of them SO HARD...sometimes twice.

Domino Mag: Back From The Dead!

Look ppl, its years later and I *still* have not recovered from the fact that Domino Mag folded. Not only was the mag dead-n-buried, but Conde Nasty had the gall to take the content offline too.

Well, today came news that DOMINO IS BAAAAACK, MOTHERFUCKERS! ONLY ONLINE, BUT STILL! BOO YAH!

Strangely, they've given control of the Domino archives over to Brides.com. And while I'd rather get a root canal than accidentally come across any wedding related content, I'm willing to make an exception in order to re-unite with my magazine soulmate.

The content is being moved over by little wedding elves as I type this, but you can start to see some of it right here, RIGHT NOW.

YOU. ARE. WELCOME.

[LINKED] Catalog Living

Add this to the "Why the fuck didn't I think of this brilliant idea" pile: Catalog Living, a hilarious Tumblr dreamed up by LA-based comedian Molly Erdman.  

Basically, it busts the ridiculous decor presented in catalogs by presenting them as real situations being experienced by fictional characters Elaine and Gary. 

Think "Deep Thoughts by Jack Handey" for the design set. 

The caption for the photo to the left was "Elaine was not amused by Gary’s passive-aggressive response to her request to “garnish the cocktails."

I'M IN LOVE.

[DESIGN STAR RECAP] Episode 3: Symphony In the Name Of Design

Le sigh.

I swear to GAWD, HGTV, these team challenges are K-I-L-L-I-N-G us all softly...or loudly, as is the case when I'm screaming at my motherfucking TV the whole friggin time time.

This ep should have been called: Squiggly Lines, The Bitch Is Back. Cause spoiler alert after she reminds us that the "fawl from the top is a lawng way down": Nina wins ah-gain. a;sfljas;fdjslfjs;fjsdlfj!!

Why or how this keeps happening is a question for the ages, because the shit that she keeps doing is so beyond amateur, it makes that goddammned sunburst mirror from last week look like a Frank Lloyd Wright house.
