bestuff.jpgI stumbled across this website a few days ago. In a nutshell, Bestuff invites people to vote in various categories of superlatives created by other users, or to create their own.

yes, is here.

See, in Shakespeare‘s time, people beat around the bush with fancy words. Thespark.com is more direct. Chances are you’re at least 10% wanton hussy. With their new, patented Wenchalyzer™ technology, this test can tell you what everyone else has been saying about you for years.

wayfarers I just bought my little sis, Stephanie, some hipster Ray Ban Wayfarers for her 16th birthday. Though the shades were first invented in 1952, (Audrey Hepburn wore a pair in Breakfast at Tiffany’s!) the wayfarer silhouette reached its peak of popularity in the 80′s when it was embraced by icons like Bob Dylan, The Blues Brothers, Holly Golightly and Tom Cruise.
