The World’s Least Sexy Sex Toys [Photos]
I told my CC editor, Alex, that I am going to have to delete my Google history after writing this post because people are going to think I’m a huge weirdo S&M freaky sex addict. This stuff is way past whips and chains and all that stuff Rihanna likes–this stuff is just plain weird. Some of these toys are just for a party of one which is also super creepy and depressing.

This Friday Video Keeps Calm Under Pressure [Video]
We don’t get very many natural disasters or crazy weather due to our location (though we do get the occasional tornado), so when I saw this video of a woman totally chilling during an earthquake in Japan, I was flabbergasted. This woman literally just holds her kid and remains calm while the ground underneath her and everything around her is shaking and falling.
We’re Excited for Safety Not Guaranteed [Trailer]
Safety Not Guaranteed, starring Parks and Rec’s Aubrey Plaza and The New Girl’s Jake Johnson, tells the story of a man looking for a partner to help him travel back in time. He puts an ad in the paper that catches the eye of local journalists who decided to do a little undercover work. I’m super excited to see Aubrey Plaza in a starring role so she can really show her talent.
Hilary Swank in Ferragamo [Hot or Hot Mess]
Hilary Swank (now there’s someone I haven’t thought about for a while) stepped out in Paris in this purple Ferragamo frock. The outfit may or may not have caused a mini-battle among my friends. Some of my girls were digging it—but I can’t say I’m into the ensemble.
Raspberry Ketones and 5 Other “Miracle” Foods
The difficulty of losing weight makes me, like others, want to cut corners and find a cure-all supplement so my late night munchies don’t hinder my efforts. Last week, Dr. Oz endorsed the answer to my prayers: Raspberry Ketone, the “miracle fat burner.” According to Dr. Oz, Raspberry Ketone aids weight loss by shrinking fat cells.
Highly-Anticipated “Bully” Hits Theaters Tomorrow — UNRATED!
Do you remember what it was like to buy your first PG-13 movie ticket on your own? What did it feel like when you started getting carded for R-rated movies? And how many films were you not allowed to see because of a silly ratings system that has now prevented a crucial documentary from being screened to the audience who needs it most?

Tommy & The High Pilots at SXSW [Video]
Coming to SXSW from Santa Barbara, these boys brought California sunshine into the bar. After quickly packing the house, people congregated by the window out on the street just to soak up some of their sound. Tommy’s voice is smooth like whiskey; warms you up and gives you chills all at the same time. He winked at me at the beginning of their set, and I nearly fainted.
Dorm Room Workout: Doin’ It Dolphin Style
No, I’m not talking about sex. Although dolphins are very promiscuous animals. I’m talking about the dolphin pose, from yoga. It’s a great strengthener for your back, shoulders, and core. Plus, it’s quick, easy, and perfect for small spaces.
21 Things You Didn’t Know About the First Anchorman
Last night, Will Ferrel went on Conan and surprised everyone when he came out dressed totally in the character of Ron Burgundy. He played his flute perfectly, did a little witty banter back and forth with Conan O’Brien and Andy Richter, and then announced that Paramount Pictures is in the process of making a sequel to the first Anchorman. That’s right, there’s an Anchorman 2 in our futures!
15 Things We’ll Have to Explain to Our Kids [Photos]
I’m probably one of the most nostalgic people you’ll ever meet. I love to go back to the past and relive simpler times. Reminiscing with friends about great moments, laughing about the funny things we used to do…bring it on! It just feels good. I wanted to compile a list of some of the things that we all grew up with that don’t even exist anymore or will soon be extinct with each new iPad that comes out.

Stop Having Bad Casual Sex [Sexy Time]
Hookup culture dictates if you’re single, at least moderately attractive and you’re in your 20s, it is a rite of passage that you make bad decisions, usually fueled by alcohol, low self esteem, loneliness or low-key peer pressure. If, every so often you find yourself entwined with someone and engaging in activities that bore you, disgust you, or leave you feel awkward, degraded, or anxious…please stop.
