GIRLS ARE PRETTY: Oops All Alone Now Day!

girlsareprettyforever:

7:43 am - Jeffrey Bixby walks with Heather Moran down a lovely street in Chicago when Heather leans over for a kiss not noticing the manhole underneath her next step leaving Jeffrey oops all alone now

9:20 am - Pamela Oliver jogs alongside her dog Jamiroquai three blocks from her home in Memphis,…

I really, really enjoy Bob Powers’ humor writing, it’s got a rhythm to it that’s always surprising. It’s also on Tumblr now, rather than the Wordpress or whatever it was on before. Check out his stuff!

I had no idea The Onion is moving (back?) to Chicago, and from this article it sounds like a hard move for everybody involved. Fascinating to see how one of the greatest humor sites of all time handles its core staff. Also, I’m from that Chicago place.
EDIT: Founded in Madison WI, moved to New York City right before 9/11. The creative side of The Onion has never been Chicago-based, just The A.V. Club and the business offices.

New Jest Original: “Google’s No Privacy Policy”

Yeah, Google’s watching you watch it. And why are you so uptight about giant corporations caring about you?

I work where they shot this! So having a giant “Google” logo on the wall was a little confusing till now.

Couldn’t be happier about an earnest, non-joke Tweet than I am about this one.
