I’ve got a problem with Dora the Explorer. I know you do too.
What the hell is the matter with television’s longest running bilingual toon whore? This passive-aggressive little cow yells too much. She asks a question, then waits silently for the answer while staring at you like a creep. I swear she can see me through the TV screen!
This unemployed bitch has been on air for almost 13 years now and she hasn’t figured out why her backpack is on acid and why her pet monkey stole her boots. Ask the monkey, it fucking talks, dumbass! [Mas…]
8. Candy Bra: Lets face it, dude, the gift wasn’t really for your girl — it was for your own enjoyment. If eating chalky conversation hearts is what turns you on, you might as well just give her one. Plus, you could have thrown it on her body when she was naked. Now you just wasted $14.95 instead of Brachs conversation hearts which are 99 cents.
7. Humidifer: Don’t buy shit just because it’s on sale, unless he or she has severe allergies. Do not let yourself look like a mouth breather.

Check out The Coconut Tree, the new reggae-toned psychedelic video from Los Angeles band Fitter, shot in El Salvador. Fitter is James Ramirez, drums; Wilfredo Mendez, vocals, guitar and congas; and Edgardo Velasquez, bass and timbales. One question for the band: How can you shoot a vid in El Salvador and not feature a single [...]
I truly believe that Lady Gaga stole this New York Dominicana’s hairstyle. “Maluca” in Spanish is a derivative of “Mala” which means bad or mean girl; in Portuguese “maluca” means crazy or mischievous. Maluca Mala’s performances are filled with heat and intensity. Keep your eye on this lady, folks, she makes heads turn, just like [...]
Local heroes Fishbone join PRIMUS at the Greek Theater next week and we predict a lot of boot-stompin’ fun and all kinds of adrenaline running from the stage pouring back into the crowd. See you there?
Happy fifty-third birthday, Steven Patrick Morrissey! You would might think he was dead, with all the tribute bands and karaoke nights and even a whole convention in his honor. The real fans, of course, will be at an actual concert, like tonight’s show in San Diego, where the venue will be filled with lonely misfits [...]
