This Is How Raleigh Looks When You’re Away
NCSU’s started up again with the largest freshman class EVER invading last week. Instead of grumbling about traffic,  I couldn’t be happier that school’s back after witnessing the “nightlife” of the past few months. Take a look: The Black Flower Ugly Monkey Ocean...
Technician Geek Takes on Tucker Max
Meet Zakk White, staff columnist for NC State’s Technician. Zakk’s pictured at left looking every bit the part of a College of Engineering nerd (minus the glasses. and acne. and NCSU Get Booked Early shirt). He’s pissed! Our beautiful, state-funded campus will host the living embodiment...
Obama Still Loves The Wire (writers)
When the Las Vegas Sun revealed last year that then-Sen. Barack Obama’s favorite show was The Wire, and furthermore to that, his favorite character in his favorite show was Omar, it was this confluence of awesome: something I liked very much met with someone I liked more every day. So I smiled...
Elizabeth Edwards Furniture Store Drops
As you can see, ABC11 reports a raging blowout: John was there! There’s a great faked shot of him just chillin’ at 00:28, but the rest of the segment is can’t-be-snarked-with painful, especially the separate Edwards questions, carefully answered at the end.  Also painful: coordinating...
Kay Hagan Stars in We Attack Democrats! 3
Right now I’m feeling a little like Larry David before the election. Health care. Tired of the vitriol, the distortions, the Sarah P. treatises on Facebook, the every day a new video outburst, the horse-race coverage, all of it. It’s a goddamn spectacle. On something everyone has already...
Sorry Hipsters, The New Wilmont Ain’t For You
The circumstances leading to Wilmont residents being evicted have already been pretty well covered. Just like to add that it’s HILARIOUS the city totaled more than 30 pages of Wilmont’s code violations when the slumtenance man lived in the building! But what happens now? On June 5th, David...
North Carolina’s Ice Truck Killer
Some disturbing news yesterday from the AP:  Since 2005, nine women who lived at the edges of the poor community in this small North Carolina city have disappeared. Six bodies were found along rural roads just a few miles outside town, most so decomposed that investigators could not tell how they died....
Rethuglicans Re-Up on Brad Miller
Bullies tend to search out the weakest member of any group to pick on in order to minimize the chance of being fought back. So surprise, surprise, the anti-Obamacare patriots, fresh off booing the presidential motorcade, doubled down last Friday on Rep. Brad Miller (D-NC) as he met with a few constituents...
919 Needs to Step Its textsfromlastnight Game Up
Like any true alky, I love this website. Outrageous behavior tersely packed into something like: (678): I read the report. You asked the cop if you could use his in-car computer to update fbook. No way you get out of a DUI. or: (757): i spent 15 mins trying to take money out of ATM with my drivers license...
Dixie FUN and Knife Show
Look. Not trying to hate on everything at this site.  Case in point: Whether you’re looking to make bad tickets to the gun show jokes, re-create the “Don’t taze me, bro!!!!” incident(me), or just want to strap up, last weekend at the State Fairgrounds was for you! The fervor...
