The Hanky Code

This is just one of two whole pages of a scanned brochure from “Image Leather,” a now-defunct leather daddy shop in San Francisco, describing what the wearing of certain colored handkerchiefs indicates when out cruising for sex. With dozens of color and material combinations to keep in mind, I have no doubt that this was […]

You might think that steel would be hard on your jeans pocket, but in fact these wallets have the texture of silk and are woven from micro fibers of stainless steel.

College Humor’s latest installment of “Prank War” was so unbelievably harsh I didn’t think it could be real, but Deadspin interviewed the prankster and he claims it’s the real deal. The send-up? A fifth-inning announcement a Yankee’s game indicates a man has proposed to his girlfriend. The problem is, he wasn’t the one who put […]
