The best of the internet, squirted out in flavorful neon globules, just for you. Watch this short documentary to learn the true and secret history of the American hobo. (Via Dan) Check out a photo of all the old school heroes from Watchmen. If their costumes look kind of cheesy and home-made... well, they're actually supposed to look that way. We can't say we love the way this looks, but we don't hate it, either.......

A steaming hot pile of our favorite things from around the internets. Papa John's has surpassed $1 billion in online pizza sales. Even though ordering pizza online is obviously attractive (it's kind of a nerd's dream, actually), we're still kind of blown away by that number. $1 billion worth of pizza! (Via Jill) A dude in Illinois had his coffin made to look like a can of Pabst Blue Ribbon. He's not dead yet (he's......

The best of the internet, squirted out in flavorful neon globules, just for you. Terrell Owens just may have shown up in the background of a photo from a hardcore porn shoot (which is, disappointingly, pretty safe for work).

If you're not feeling so jolly about paying your income taxes, Irving Berlin and Danny Kaye can help (via Jill).

The shapeless dough of the internet, formed into tasty pellets and baked to perfection, just for you. It is, if you hadn't noticed, the first day of April, which is a day on which it is traditional to prank people, lie to them, and just generally wage war on them psychologically and physically. We promise not to do any of these things to you, less because we respect you too much as people, and more......

The best of the internet, squirted out in flavorful neon globules, just for you. Muxtape looks like a cool idea (although beware—it seems to be a bit unreliable at the moment, perhaps due to its sudden popularity). Upload some MP3s and then anybody else can listen to them as a streaming playlist. There are no issues of legality because there's no way to actually download the songs. We're really enjoying this particular muxtape at the......

This Phillyist would like to thank a certain pink-haired girl for introducing me to one of the greatest bands to come out of Southern California in the '90s: The Mountain Goats. Singer-songwriter John Darnielle is pretty much the only permanent member of the band, although he's been accompanied by Peter Hughes for quite a while now, along with a shifting group of other people. The lyrics are powerful, intelligent, character-driven, and literate—but don't worry, there's......

The shapeless dough of the internet, formed into tasty pellets and baked to perfection, just for you. The new poster for Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is online, and it looks awesome. When we start having previews for previews, we may have gone too far.

In about a week and a half, singer/songwriter Johnathan Rice is going to be down at Stubb's in Austin, supporting no less a band than R.E.M. at South by Southwest. But luckily for those of us who live up here in Philly and won't be able to make it to the big party in Austin, Rice is currently touring with Matt Costa, and will be a little closer to us tomorrow night, at the First......

The best of the internet, squirted out in flavorful neon globules, just for you.

Despite their name, NYC four-piece Vampire Weekend (MySpace) is not a shoe-gazing, emo goth band. In fact, their self-titled debut LP, just released at the end of last month, is perhaps best described as "sunny" - the very antithesis of a vampire's idea of a good weekend. This band, beloved of many blogs (including us), performs bouncy, funny, clever, retro indie/punk/pop/New Wave songs about love. Their music is so fun it feels like there has......

A steaming hot pile of our favorite things from around the internets. MapQuest now has a function for mapping the best gas prices. And perhaps unsurprisingly, all the best prices in the Philadelphia area are in... New Jersey.

A week ago tonight, OFFICE, quite simply, rocked my face off. It had been a long day – the fourth in a row. I left the office at 6:50, giving me just enough time to go home and change clothes before meeting my plus-one for the evening. I just wanted some feel-good music. Fortunately, as I mentioned in the preview for this show, OFFICE is feel-good music. I just didn't know how good. You......

We'll make this short and sweet: Voxtrot (MySpace) is a good band. Their self-titled full-length release is a super-fun disc, full of catchy pop rock.
