Dear Kim Kardashian: There’s something that’s been bothering us about you lately. No, it’s not your budding “music” career, your fragrance, diet pill endorsements, or the fact that you’re famous for getting manicures, lunch, and having a nice ass.

O, Miami Wants to Put Poetry on Buses

Just Say No to Vampires and Other Pop Culture Advice for 2011

Chilean coal miners and a BP oil spill? Who cares when 2010 also gave us BombShell McGee, a Palin dancing (if you want to call it that), a Kardashian giving birth, the Crying Rainbow dude, a three-dimensional Yogi Bear, a sandal/boot hybrid, Willow Smith’s hair whipping, and the dawning of…

Steve-O Set Audiences and His Head Aflame at Miami Improv

First off, who knew Steve-O did stand-up? Secondly, who would’ve guessed a swarm of people would show up this past weekend, packing Coconut Grove’s Improv Comedy Club like this headliner would pack a port-o-potty with poo (and then roll down a hill inside of it), just to watch this Jackass…

Steve-O comes to the Improv

Sure, you knew he once swallowed a goldfish live and then threw it up back into its bowl. And that he got the world’s dumbest tattoo (a self portrait with two thumbs up captioned with the words: “Yeah dude, I rock!”). But did you know Jackass’s Steve-O graduated from Ringling…
