Grand Theft Auto gets an '80s redux (heroin for 20 bucks back then seems a little unrealistic, however). If you ever wondered what the game would have looked like on the original NES, this one's for you:

An animal near and dear to the Gothamist heart has been embroiled in a Super Bowl controversy! This year's wardrobe malfunction is now the debate over an animated ad from SalesGenie.com that features pandas.

Isn't it sweet (or cliché) when you go to a baseball game and the jumbotron flashes a marriage proposal? It's such a nice personal event that the couple is sharing with thousands of other people. While we secretly hope that someone says no, this prank proposal at Yankee Stadium takes things to a whole new level. Some background: two College Humor guys have been engaged in a "Prank War" starting earlier this year. The cruelness of the pranks has escalated as they continue and this one might be the meanest one.

The NY Times article about Calvin Klein's perfume division's attempts to gain market share from twenty-somethings with a new perfume made us wonder many things.

We recall numerous covers of Britney Spears "Toxic", Kelly Clarkson's "Since U Been Gone" (mp3) and more recently Gnarls Barkley's "Crazy" (mp3). It's about time we all embraced JT!

If New York wasn't the center of the universe already, we'd say the title would go to MySpace. The phenomenon has even inspired a song.

Kermit the Frog visited our fair city this past weekend, and did many typical New York things: He visited the Empire State Building, took a taxi, sat in a tree, and rode the subway. Our only questions are "Did the subways seem safer than the swamp?" and "Where was the pig?" At any rate, this visit was more G-rated than the steamy pre-Thanksgiving night canoodling Kermit the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade balloon engaged in, back in 2003.
