Categories:
- Mideast Journal – four pages of blog entries (and a plethora of videos) from Jen’s 2007 trip to Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, and Djibouti to entertain the troops through Armed Forces Entertainment. Find out what happens when you heat four comedians to 125 degrees, suggest that they do pull-ups in high heels, and baffle them with a food stand called “Mr. Corn.”
- Advertising – Learn from AT&T’s grammar mistakes, eschew the Lifetime Channel’s misogyny, and let Lays chips turn you into a lesbian.
- Economics – Seriously, Jen has no idea why she’s so obsessed. But she wants to offer you financial advice, take the NYTimes to task, and talk about Sweden kind of a lot.
- Feminism – As though the whole blog didn’t fall into this category. Because it totally does.
- Grammar – Isn’t this category why your here? (Just kidding on the “your”). Make fun of companies that can’t use the English language and learn how to better NIGHTLY MAKE SEX AT GRASS.
- Humor – Naturally.
