Also colliding, here: Jeff from ITR and Maura doing a joint collabo! In which they take me to task for being an irreponsible rumor-spreading yay-sayer (NOT a yeasayer). Obviously a must-read.
Lines that I left on the cutting room floor:
We started out the night at The-Dream’s concert, shoving ourselves into the already packed room at Hiro. Rumors swirled that The-Dream wasn’t...

OK, essay question time: Please explain what this statement means in 150 words or more: Start with the ramifications of the word “successful” and go from there. Then, think about why this might be the case.

10 Reasons Not to Tumbl Something
chrismohney:
1. I found a hilarious link! It’s been on Tumblr five times already, on Digg before that, and 4chan before that.
2. I found a hilarious tumblr! It’s been reblogged five hundred times, and it’s fake.
3. I found a hilarious picture! It’s not really funny; see also both 1 and 2 above.
4. I took an amazing picture! Twelve other people already photographed and tumbled same thing, and...

Please remind me, which circle of hell is this? Seriously, though, I want a fucking strawberry.
Eagle-eyed Manhattan Media Hunters: I’m pretty sure that’s Neel Shah in the Dodgers hat at the bottom of the frame at 00:29.
It it’s turned to the side 30 degrees, I expect it is.
I knew that they’d play the Black Eyed Peas in Hell. I knew it.

Kid Cudi feat. Kanye West and Common - ‘Make Her Say’
Despite my feelings towards Cudi, I’m a huge fan of this video and song.
Cudi: +1, Drake: -1
(…and the conversation of “Who’s better: Kid Cudi or Wale?” has gotten more interesting in the past few weeks.)

Pro tip for entertainment interns:
spiegelman:
Do not reveal the surprises of the new Harry Potter film to your movie buff employers, especially when the movie hasn’t even been in theaters for twelve hours. You will not get a recommendation. You may not even retain your internship.
Everyone dies in the first fifteen minutes. Also: Harry Potter isn’t even in this one.

Ads gone bad: When I click on the lead story (Sarah Palin, Andrew) on nytimes.com, it opens a new tab with that annoying Levi’s “write your own Declaration of Independence” campaign. Try it. Is this what bankruptcy does to old media?
At least it’s not Levi Johnston’s “write your own Declaration of Independence” campaign.
