Welcome Back, Dane Cook
Who else was mad when Dane Cook didn't get nominated for an Oscar for Employee of the Month? I wasn't mad either. When Dane Cook first stepped into the limelight, I'll admit that I thought he was funny. Then something happened. I would watch one of his specials on TV, and then the next day in class I would feel like I was watching it over and over again. Every fratty bro felt the need to repeat Dane Cook quotes over and over and over and over.

For all the dudes out there that can't stand poetry, there's a new art form for you. It's called Broetry. Yes, poems for bros. Popular broet Brian McGackin has compiled a collection of his own works in a book cunningly titled Broetry, which he calls a "literary chili cheeseburger."

Glamour Says the Darndest Things: January Edition
January's Glamour cover claims that it's the happy issue. Coincidentally, this is one of the lightest mags I've ever picked up. I found this issue uninspired at worst, and bland at best.
Top Ten Misconceptions About Guys (By a Guy)
I’m often referred to as a “guy’s guy.” I like drinking and sports and hanging with the fellas. My third book, which is about being single when all your friends are couples, is entitled I’m Having More Fun Than You and features me on the cover with five models. This Friday, November 19th, Comedy Central is premiering my first one-hour stand-up special, AARON KARO: THE REST IS HISTORY.
Greek Speak: Frat Guys, An Insider’s Perspective
To say that frat guys don't have the best reputation is like saying that that I only kinda like Diet Coke. From movies to TV shows to their very own indiscretions (like the most recent events at Yale), on a scale of douchebaggery, they fall somewhere between Spencer Pratt and Tiger Woods.

I could barely make the trek to my freezer this morning to have a struggle-fest opening the wrapper off of my fruit popsicle before I proceeded to the center of my family room, turned on the fan and spread out like a star fish on the ground.
In Defense of Bros
Yes, I know. This already seems like I’m going to be writing an article pleading with chicks to “give bros a chance, YOU DON’T KNOW THEM LIKE I DO!” etc and so forth.
