Celebrate National Sandwich Day With Some Man-Meat

Sandwich

“Can I share with you my worldview? All of humankind has one thing in common: the sandwich. I believe that all anyone really wants in this life is to sit in peace and eat a sandwich.” –  Liz Lemon, 30 Rock

And that is exactly what I plan to do on this day, National Sandwich Day. Sit in peace and eat my go-to sandwich: the T.B.M sandwich from Cosi. With only a mere three ingredients, this sandwich somehow speaks to my soul and brightens even the darkest of days (no thanks to you, Daylight Savings Time.) If this sandwich was a man, I’d be rolling around in bed with it right now. Hell, maybe I’ll do it anyway.

My love of sandwiches and my love of men run almost parallel to each other on the mathematical graph of my life, intersecting only at the moment someone lets me eat a sandwich and have sex at the same time. That’s the stuff dreams are made of. And until that time comes, I’ve thought up a few sandwich ideas that bring my two weaknesses together. Read More »

Dating a Non-Stud: Can Personality Take The Place of Looks?

jack-black.jpgYou’ve been compared to Angelina Jolie. He’s more of a Steve Carell. Should you take him up on his lunch-date offer?

This is the dilemma I have often faced during my college years (aside from the part about looking like Angie), and I faced it once again last Thursday.

I was pre-gaming with some guy friends, their friends, and the friends of those friends, when one of them (unfortunately not the Abercrombie model look-alike with whom I’d been flirting) came up to me and asked, “Do you remember when you turned me down at Shooters (a local club)?” My face turned strawberry red as I mumbled, “uh…no…”

I felt embarrassed, awkward, and most of all, shallow (yes, of course, I remembered). I ended up apologizing, blaming it on stupidity, and agreeing to dance with him that night to make up for it. I attempted to seem interested, but as hard as I tried to look past his sub-average looks, the shallow part inside me was screaming “you deserve someone cuter!”

I know, I know. I’m a horrible person. Looks are sooooo unimportant. But really, are they? Can you honestly say that you wouldn’t rather share a kiss with George Clooney than Jack Black? Exactly.

But what if the former was a jerk and the latter a sweetheart? How much attraction-at-first-site must you give up for a magnetic personality? I decided to test the waters, and see if this guy’s character alone was enough to lure me in. Read More »

CollegeCandy’s 64 Jews of Hanukkah

Happy Hanukkah, people!

In honor of the eight days of Hanukkah, we decided to do a tribute to our 8 favorite Hanukkah celebrators (also known as Jews). But then we decided that 8 just wasn’t enough; there are too many good ones! So, we upped it to eight Jews for each of the eight days.

Yes, it’s a lot of Jewish, but let’s be real – Hanukkah gets totally ignored this time of year, so we thought it would be nice to give a little shout-out to the people not dreaming of a white Christmas. You know, the ones dreaming of a little Mu Shu on Christmas eve. Click on any of our favorite Jews to see why we love em so much (and why anyone – Jew or non Jew – will love them too!). Read More »

Michel Gondry Goes Mainstream

be kind rewindLet’s be honest, there are a plethora of crappy movies out there. “Daddy Day Camp” or “I Know Who Killed Me”, anyone? Thankfully for us, cinema genius Michel Gondry does not produce movies of such low quality. The genius behind the cinematography in Eternal Sunshine for the Spotless Mind has just released a trailer for his upcoming film, “Be Kind Rewind”.

Although “Be Kind Rewind” is aimed at a more mainstream audience than Gondry’s last film, “The Science of Sleep”, the trailer seems to indicate that it will be an inevitable success. In fact, the movie seems to be a complete turnaround from “The Science of Sleep”, a film with relatively unknown actors (besides the lovely Gael Garcia Bernal) and an ambiguous plot. Read More »

Man-Boob Reduction: The Newest Dude Fad?

Jack BlackBy the time we hit our twenties, most girls have thought about getting a boob job. Even if we would never really consider going under the knife, we’ve at least discussed it with friends, joked about it, or secretly researched how much it would cost to turn ourselves in Pam Anderson. Society is big on boobs.

Unless you’re a guy.

Sure, men supposedly think about tits all day long, but actually having them isn’t something most men relish. Unlike their female counterparts, man boobs aren’t appealing, and in today’s beauty-obsessed world, our fixation on breasts might actually be working against the very species that invented it.
