Everything I said in my April Fool’s post, up until the end, was completely true. I don’t have the time anymore, I’ve lost interest in celebrity shenanigans, I have other projects I want to focus on, and I don’t want to not like things anymore.
But I will NOT be shutting down the website.
So technically, [...]

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 [...]
The Finest Delivery of the Word “Thanks” Ever Committed To Existence
I’m also quite fond of the guy’s “we are” as he sneakily leans back. And her head tilt response. And his bit of business straightening out his shirt.
This is quite the well-directed commercial.
And how she walks into the room and presents herself, fully expecting a big response, gets it, but doesn’t [...]

“Ladies and gentlemen, the Captain has turned on the Fasten Seat Belt sign. If you haven’t already done so, please stow your carry-on luggage underneath the seat in front of you or in an overhead bin. Please make sure your seat back and folding trays are in their full, upright position.
If you are seated [...]
Bronx. Mowgli. Wentz.
I’m not an arbitrary writer. My mind, like most triple digit IQ noggins, though it works semi-spontaneously, makes its money through logical patterns. A sequence of cohesive, directional responses. What I’m getting at here is this: I write about things that NEED to be written about. I don’t make up celebrity [...]

The Central Fallacy of the Walk and Talk
You’ve all seen the scene. It’s a bustling office; extras speeding around trying to look busy, ambient work noise cranked to eleven, the camera on a dolly catching all the “realistic” action. And then in comes our hero.
He strides through the office takes charge. High-fiving random co-workers, saying hello [...]
The Jay Drops Some Truth On The Book Of Lies
There comes a time in every successful blogger’s career, and by “successful” I mean more than just your MySpace Top 8 (though oddly not your significant other) reads your posts, when advertisers and PR Firms start knocking on your RSS Feed. Post about this, blog about that, they ask. We’ll send you a [...]
