If friendship is the key to happiness, then maybe this is the key to friendship, to be enmeshed — not just tangentially or voyeuristically, but physically — in the lives of others. That can be hard to swallow in a culture that prizes individualism, mobility and privacy.
And let’s face it: Our culture has lost the ability to usefully disagree. Most Americans seem to avoid argument. But this has produced passive aggression and groupthink in the office, red and blue states, and families unable to discuss things as simple as what to watch on television. Rhetoric doesn’t turn kids into back-sassers; it makes them think about other points of view.

A good face-to-face argument can make you feel alive and not just a slug on a log staring at a screen all day. The key problem with Political Correctness today is that people take disagreements as personal attacks. Fight it out (verbally or otherwise) and then slap each other on the back and move on. Has the entire world lost it’s testosterone?
This is the year of WTF. Yep, What the F&&&.
It doesn’t matter what got you to the point of saying it. Maybe you got fired/layed off. Maybe your company went out of business. Maybe you quit because you couldn’t take it any longer. Maybe you are just graduating from school and the prospects of living at home are far worse than cramming in with 12 roommates in a beater house or apartment you call “The Hotel”. Whatever the reason, the question is how do you turn this time into the start of something good ?
I’m here to give you your WTF To Do List.
1. Recognize that its ok to live like a student.
It doesn’t matter where you live. It doesn’t matter how you live. It doesn’t matter what kind of car you drive. It doesn’t matter what kind of clothes you wear. It doesn’t matter. Your biggest enemies are your bills. The more you owe, the more you stress. The more you stress over bills, the more difficult it is to focus on your goals. More importantly, if you set your monthly income requirements too high, you eliminate a significant number of opportunities. The cheaper you can live, the greater your options. Remember that.

So much good stuff from The Onion
inky:
Amazing.
Woke up today and actually bought (and read) a paper this morning. The New York Times costs $5 for the Sunday Edition and the same content is online for free.
Nostalgia for holding a paper isn’t worth $5 on a regular basis.

From the “Mad Men” era until now, advertising has been about a catchy tagline, an arresting image, the Big Idea. But Mr. Herman and his competitors are bringing some Wall Street-like analysis to Madison Avenue, exploiting the huge amounts of data produced by the Internet to adjust strategy almost instantly.
There are still Chris Bermans and Terry Bradshaws, “entertainers” mugging to boost their own Q ratings. But the nerds are emerging. In five years, there aren’t going to be many broadcasters left for Frank Caliendo to impersonate. John Madden is gone, Tony Kornheiser is gone, and Howard Cosell would never be hired. The only analyst who consistently rides the line is TNT’s Charles Barkley (who’s as observant as he is casually hilarious), and he’s the exception that proves the rule: There are plenty of failed imitators who’ve proved it’s a lot harder than he makes it look. When in doubt, just tell us the score and how it got that way.
Will Leich’s “For The Fans” article from New York Magazine and why blogs and new media are making nerds out of all of us. Even sportscasters.
The Boss let’s loose with both guns blazing on this one. Nothing better for a sunny Sunday.
