22 Aug 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 1 Comment
This makes total sense. Apparently the upkeep of plants in Goldman Sachs’ London offices are costing the bank tens of thousands of pounds per annum, which is why the head offices have ordered many of the plants to be removed. It’s nice to see that these guys can make the big sacrifices when they have to.

18 Aug 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
And today was going so well. The mankini, popularized by Sacha Baron Cohen in Borat. Because that’s what we want 2011 to be known for; the year that we introduced torso-spanning banana hammocks into our day-to-day vocabulary. Other words that are now acceptable to use include ‘sexting,’ ‘retweet,’ and ‘cyberbullying.’ See also, ‘apocalypse.’

Stats Don’t Lie – Butch James Is Doing Very Well
15 Aug 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 2 Comments

10 Aug 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 2 Comments
Souveneir t-shirts handed out at a rock festival in Gera, eastern Germany, were decorated with skulls, right-wing flags and the words “hardcore rebels,” to appeal to the vaguely neo-Nazi crowd the festival attracts. Except when the shirts got washed, the douchey decorations faded, replaced with anti-extremist slogans.

Banksy’s put up some new art on his site because all the other well-known people were speaking out about the NewsCorp. hacking scandal, and Banksy didn’t want to be left behind. Which is nice! Because honestly I’d almost forgotten about Murdoch. Way to be relevant, Banksy.
