Speaking of Lindsay, she's apparently "drowning her sorrows in a sea of men." And if that's as literal as it sounds, it's disgusting - that's a great line - aElian

this is some, um, high-brow, post-modern noticing! a million different methods for practicing "super-noticing": improv, meditation, forced momentary observation, the "noticing plus time version", bunch of inane note-taking using a "notice log" (isn't this just twitter?) and clearly the benefits are innumerable... like um, you become "The enhanced human with awesome noticing..." of all the super-hero powers, i think i'll pass on the "super-noticing power" that may make you a "super-charged" Cayce Pollard-Rainman. (Uh oh. Underwear on the highway. Uh oh). for chrissakes, i'm trying to figure out how to notice less, gah! i noticed the word "notice" in its various forms show up 31x in their conversation (including in title). And, as aptly mentioned by these guys, each time i saw it again, i couldn't help but notice it again. To their credit, it does improve your ability to notice what you'd normally ignore. - aElian

the problem with "rockstars" is that they can do it all, better than you, and would make great managers except they can do it all and better than you. They're visionary and have great execution - do-ers, not managers. They are extremely valuable for early-stage start-ups but have a hard time with growth and delegation. Rockstars do not scale. - aElian

wow, never thought of it as "hygiene" but this really resonates w/ me! - aElian

dang, someone found a goldmine of a niche! i'll buy this just so i can break it out during a "praise jesus" moment w/ friends. - aElian

There are many concomitant factors! I'd like to read about these "studies." I'm irritated by the premise of this article and question if targeting is truly race-oriented (marketers are equal opportunity exploiters). That's not to say that marketing isn't partially responsible for the poor eating habits of many americans. Linking it to a specific race without mention of any of the other concomitant factors seems like a skewed representation of a larger issue. - aElian

defendant pleads rising guacamole costs in a DRAMATIC case of avocado theft. - aElian

exciting! - aElian

huh?? - aElian

sick, sad, and true. how bout this? how bout we GROW THE FUCK UP and not let others' judgments affect us? do good work, be a decent human to others, and don't worry about the message your profile pic sends for chrissakes. personal brand image is measured by the quality of your product and i hope it's more than a facebook pic. - aElian
