Silly, silly magazines...

Although knowing the minute details of celebrity culture or the latest fashion trends generally do not interest me, many of the updates on this website make me extremely happy. I do not care to know what random celebrities have recently 'tweeted' (I, by the way, despise Twitter), but I do enjoy being reminded of how much Cosmopolitan fails at, well, everything.

So, for a less academic look at life, here are Jezebel's 10 Best Cover Lies of the year, some of which include the almighty fails of Cosmo. Enjoy, or despair... whatever you feel most appropriate.

I'd post an image, but most of them may be slightly offensive in the least. :)

Suffice it to say...

Most of the time, I find that the words of others are more significant than my own. I exist solely to re-distribute ideas, rather than risk spitting out my personal thoughts. As such, two things that I believe merit sharing:

Number one: This article.

Number two: "For me, forgiveness and compassion are always linked: how do we hold people accountable for wrongdoing and yet at the same time remain in touch with their humanity enough to believe in their capacity to be transformed?" - bell hooks

Happy 2010 and whatnot.
