If Brand Slogans Were Brutally Honest
Nov 10, 2:12PM
Since advertising is all about the power of suggestion, it's fun to see what happens when the conceits of well-known campaigns are totally undermined.

Apartment Hunting in NYC Is So Bad, I'm Considering This $8,000 Bus
Nov 10, 1:59AM
I've been on a grand tour of wacky apartment sublets since moving to NYC this past summer. For a guy who grew up in the Pennsylvania suburbs, it's an eye-opener. Things that would once have seemed completely unreasonable are starting to look promising—like this $8,000 four-bedroom schoolbus. It's got its own toilet. It's got a lot of crumpled bedsheets. It's very dusty.

Shining Spires and Jimi Hendrix's Ode to the Night Sky
Nov 10, 1:30AM
Last night, One World Trade's spire lit up Manhattan's night sky for the very first time. Up close, it was impressive, but perhaps a little lost amid the city's bright lights.

You can watch your favorite movies in one minute with these GIFs
Nov 09, 4:31AM
With movies you've already seen, sitting through the whole thing again is a little bit much. Since you already know what's going to happen, you only need to see a few key sequences to get the same amount of enjoyment. A quick top off as opposed to a full refill, you know? Reddit understood that and developed a whole new genre of animated gifs: the full movie GIF, an entire movie distilled into a GIF shot.

Every superhero movie is the same as every other superhero movie
Nov 09, 12:42AM
It's true. Even if you're dealing with the brilliant Dark Knight or fantastic Iron Man or the good times of Thor, all superhero movies pretty much boil down to the same thing: an established hero fighting a lunatic bad guy to prevent the destruction of some version of New York City with epic fight scenes and long death scenes galore. Slacktory nails this perfectly in their hilarious video How to make a superhero in 10 easy steps.
