 There has always been one particular melon we find the hardest to swallow. A bitter melon.

How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Backstreet Boys
|
 |
We stumbled upon this little jem from indie rock critic Jonathan Dekel and we couldn't help but share. Mostly because we feel like we just got outed for crushing on BSB's Nick Carter in secret during their heyday. Who are we kidding, we still have a baby's head soft spot for these boys. |
|
 |
Not to get all blog-y, but we thought this both interesting and important enough to share. Some serious food for thought so munch away on Fade In magazine's take on the role of women and minorities in that big machine we call the Hollywood system. Read the Minority Report here. |

Just the Numbers: The Rolled Out of Bed Look
|
 |
As we all know fashion fuels commerce, sex, esteem, among a laundry list of other things. The focus on high end designer labels permeates our culture to no end. To the point where hundreds of dollars are spent on looking like you just Rolled Out of Bed. Calling all hotties! |

"Would you like a burger with that?" The Way of the Weirdness is back with our continuing series on good ol' Mickey D's. So what are we missing now? So far, we've had Grandpa Ronald and Baby Ronald. But what exactly do you feed Baby Ronald? The McNipple of course.

 |
The Way of the Weirdness Mickey D's ad bonanza continues! We started with the baby Ronald and we're moving our way up to Grandpa Ronald. Mr. McDonald himself in his first ever television commercial.
|
 |
The Way of the Weirdness returns with a short special, where we'll be bringing you some of the oddest ads by bada da da da I'm lovin' it - McDonald's. The first of this wicked series is brought to you by ad agency Leo Burnett in New Delhi. All we have to say is... um... err...

Turning Off the Stereo-Types
By Liem Vu
May 25, 2007
As we creep closer to reaching the first decade in the new millennia, we’ve seen a drastic change in the international social setting, especially in North America. With immigration rates soaring, and a plethora of cultures permeating Western culture, it has finally manifested itself in the media. |

The Next Best Thing to Sliced Bread
By Melanie Chung
January 30, 2006
There are few inventions that have actually made living life a tad easier. At one point, when we all had hair on our back and loincloths as clothing, the wheel was invented. We became better. The possibility of living without such a small item has become unthinkable. We build buildings with it, it transports us, and it has limitless uses (okay so that's not entirely true). |

Jaded
By Andrew Chung
April 08, 2005
As a boy, being Asian never really occurred to me. Not in the 'I didn't know I was Asian!' sense, but in the sense that I never quite completely understood what my race meant in a larger social context.
I didn't understand how being Asian could mean the difference between employment and unemployment, having a voice and lacking one, or belonging and ostracism. As a boy everything was simple. But as is expected, reality bites you in the ass as you grow older and the world doesn't appear as sunny as it used to. Don't get me wrong, I'm not this disgruntled, embittered, angry, and pessimistic person with a firmly planted nihilistic worldview. No, quite the opposite. I'm determined, a firm believer in change, but most importantly I'm hopeful. However, these qualities often come into question when I also possess my most criticized characteristic: realism.

Maybe it's you
By Melanie Chung
April 08, 2005
I've always been told that I'm blunt, rash, harsh, or bitter among other things when it came to my opinions. Granted, I haven't disputed or denied having these 'traits' and I have done my best to curb my bad habits and possibly offending other people. However, I have found a benefit to my 'rash bluntness' - I've used it to create art. One of the first films I've ever made in film school was a forty-second black and white film portraying the lack of representation or misrepresentation of Asians in Western media. Being the only minority in my class at the time, my film garnered quite a response from a few of my classmates.
