Do Tell: How Do You Play Games to Keep Relationships Alive?
Last night, our long, Upper East Side-less Summer came to a welcomed end when Gossip Girl's third season premiered. (Check out BuzzSugar for their favorite WTF moments.) While it lacked the melodrama I've come to love and expect, I was happy to see Blair and Chuck haven't let monogamy interfere with their Shakespearean scheming.
This year, instead of playing each other, they're on the same team, fooling unsuspecting girls into Chuck's arms so that scorned woman Blair can storm in and unleash her faux rage.

Girl Crush du Jour: Alison Brie
Adorable. No word better sums up actress Alison Brie. And while I am sure the 26-year-old would prefer a more sophisticated adjective, she does play Trudy Campbell on Mad Men and ain't nothin' more sophisticated than that.
Players: Singles Trade in Speed Dating For PlayDates
If you've chanced upon a bar with board games, you'll know they can turn an otherwise mediocre night into a fun one. PlayDates, which at first sounds cringey, knows this: it allows singles to gather and play old-school games like Scrabble, checkers, and chess.
Events are held once a month (to keep it novel) and, at $10 per event, PlayDates is affordable.
Laptops & Role Playing: Is Technology the Answer to Poverty?
Though Dungeons and Dragons has weirdly wormed its way into the campaign, technology is popping up worldwide as not an escape from the drudgery of every day, but as an escape from poverty. Laptops and role-playing games are a double click of cure.
One Laptop Per Child, a program designed to bring technology and opportunity to kids in developing nations has completely fulfilled that mission in the tiny South Pacific island of Niue.
Flashback: Awesome Sony PlayStation2 Commercial
This "Golfers Versus Pornstars" commercial was listed by one fanboy as one of the worst Sony PlayStation commercials ever. (It was for the PS2.) If by worst they mean best, I concur. As a David Lynch PlayStation2 ad argues, "Different Place.
East vs. West: Berlin Wall Divided Two Attitudes Toward Nudity
When the Berlin Wall fell 20 years ago last week, East and West Germany had to integrate two very different cultures. Freedom may have spread quickly through the East, but nudity — the East's favorite and perhaps only freedom — never caught on in the West.
Freikörperkultur (FKK), or liberal body culture, was really the only way to rebel in the East, where the most quotidian details of people's lives were observed by the Stasi, East Germany's secret police.
Do You Believe in Playing Hard to Get?
When it comes to dating, there is some truth to the statement "We want what we can't have, " but I've never been much into playing games. I don't appreciate it when guys take a week to call me back after a great first date, so I wouldn't avoid calling a guy if I really wanted.
I'm not saying I act like an eager beaver and call the hour after we say goodbye - but I don't see anything wrong with letting someone know you are interested.
Product of the Day: Play-Doh Cologne
What immediately comes to mind when you think of Play-Doh? Surely, not the noise of popping open a fresh can of it, or the colorful look of it, or the manufactured taste of it (wait...what do you mean it's not edible?), or the gooey feel of it, but the overwhelming fragrance that accompanied it. You know the smell well.
