Venn Diagram fail on the NY Subway

A few weeks ago, I took a picture of this ad I found on the NY Subway and forgot to do anything with it. I apologize, my mind was elsewhere — probably unpacking the trip’s later encounter with a young man who tried to elicit money from me by “tying my shoe for Jesus” and was then baffled by the way I wear my laces*.

Anyway, thanks to my Twitter friends @Thalesdisciple and @mackenzief, this ad is back on my radar and can finally get the ridicule it deserves.

Let the ridicule commence. »

A Detailed Timeline of George Clooney’s Pranks

George Clooney is such a prankster that a celebrity gossip/YouTube carnival blog invented a noun for him. None of us at Slacktory are that clever, so I covered for it with a big-ass infographic with friendly, brightly-colored text.

If any of these can’t be confirmed on Google, then I guess they’re a scoop. MUST CREDIT SLACKTORY, etc.

Everyone on the FX show Archer tends toward chaotic neutral, so I mapped them out on two different axes: Niceness and competence.
