This is a list of the 40 movies of the last ten years that affected me the most. They aren’t the “best” movies by any stretch of the imagination (Even the stubborn narcissist in me can’t call movies 22, 23 or 27 “good”), just the ones that moved me, entertained me, and enlightened me. [...]

The End of TheJay.com
It’s time. It just is.
I’ve been writing this blog for close to three and a half years; in that time I wrote more than 400 (suspect to hilarious) posts and was read by more than a million people. I have been linked across the net, spotlighted by some of the biggest websites there [...]
Enumerating the Ways In Which I Lose My Shit Over the Where The Wild Things Are Trailer
I have now spent what seems like 14 full days watching the Where The Wild Things Are trailer. It’s nourishment for me, sustenance, at this point. I feel that if I don’t watch it, dissect it, consume it, I will lose it, and that is a loss I am not prepared to handle.
There [...]
Harper’s Globe: Episode 1 – “Fresh Start”
I’m gonna need you to get ahead and watch this video. IMMETES.
In continuing my recent “you might not know this about The Jay” Tour, I wanted to tell you that when I’m not online skewering celebrities and on my couch TiVo-blooping Idol flunkies, I have me a real world jobby job. And in [...]
Every Little Grape He Grows Is Magic
You may not know this by reading my blog, but I’m actually a wine enthusiast. And I don’t just mean I like to drink a glass of Blackstone or Charles Shaw on a Friday Night. I’ve studied wine, worked in the wine industry, spoken about wine at venues and large-scale events, traveled to [...]
The Brand New Look of TheJay.com
Yes, like the aging celebrity desperately hoping for one more ride on the Celebreality Rodeo, I have pulled a Paula and given a full nip, lift, tuck and roll to TheJay.com.
We went from this:
To this:
It’s a cleaner, more streamlined-look; one that makes the site look like it wasn’t made in 1994 using Windows 95, even [...]
A Quick Conversation About Beyonce
The Jay: Can I tell you that I have been singing Beyonce’s “If I Were a Boy” for nine straight days?
Audiebird: You may. And that is the ONLY APPROPRIATE RESPONSE.
The Jay: The video is all sorts of quite excellent.
Audiebird: For TOTES.
The Jay: With the wet hair and the black and white? And, AND! Cop [...]
Get Effed 200Jay8!
Oh, 2008, you can’t fool me. Trying to throw me off the tracks with your Britney Spears Comebacks and your two Keanu Reeves movies, your RoDoJu ascension and your deliriously good Mad Men Season 2, your dismissal of Lindsay Lohan and your disillusionment of Paris Hilton, your Beyonce “Singles Ladies” music video and your [...]
Yes MAN, You ARE Stealing My Look!
When Katie did it, I was fine. I let it go. Sometimes great minds think alike (that is, when they’re not stuck in mind prisons or hiding from their husbands in poorly attended Broadway shows). And besides, her theft of my “Jewociraptor” look was an aside at most. She flung it [...]
